Cinnamomum verum J. Presl. Bark essential oil: in vitro investigation of anti-cholinesterase, anti-BACE1, and neuroprotective activity.

Summary

Six plant essential oils commonly used in Iranian Traditional Medicine for memory improvement were tested for their ability to inhibit cholinesterase, an enzyme whose inhibition is a key target in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The plants tested were cinnamon, myrtle, rue, dill, nutmeg, and saffron. These findings may support the continued use of these natural remedies for memory improvement and suggest the potential of using these plants for developing drugs to treat AD.
