Neuroprotective effects of Magnoliae Flos extract in mouse hippocampal neuronal cells

Abstract Magnoliae Flos (MF) is a traditional medicinal herb used for managing rhinitis, sinusitis and headache. The purpose of the present study was to determine the neuroprotective effect of MF against glutamate-induced oxidative stress and to assess the underlying mechanism. Glutamate is a major...
