Protective effect of Viola tricolor and Viola odorata extracts on serum/glucose deprivation-induced neurotoxicity: role of reactive oxygen species
Preclinical
Abstract
Viola tricolor (and Viola odorata) hydroalcoholic extracts protected PC12 neuronal cells against serum/glucose-deprivation-induced death and reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species, indicating an antioxidant, neuroprotective activity relevant to ischemia and neurodegeneration.
