Protective Effect of Sauchinone on Methamphetamine-Induced Neurotoxicity in Mice
Sauchinone is a lignan isolated from Saururus chinensis known to suppress nitric oxide (NO) activity. Previous studies demonstrate that NO plays a key role in methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity. Thus, we hypothesized that sauchinone could have a suppressive effect on the neurotoxicity induced by...
