Genoprotective and neuroprotective effects of Daphne gnidium leaf methanol extract, tested on male mice.

Summary

Researchers tested the effects of a plant extract from Daphne gnidium leaves on mice. They found that the extract has antioxidant and antibutyrylcholinesterase properties, suggesting it could be useful in treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. The extract also showed antigenotoxic effects in mice injected with a toxic chemical. At the lowest dose, the extract was able to protect kidney cells by 99.12%, and blood cells by 92.16%. The extract was given to mice through intraperitoneal injection and demonstrated a maximum antioxidant activity of 74.52% with an IC50 value of 45 µg/ml. The extract also inhibited butyrylcholinesterase by 35.82% at the lowest tested dose.
