Exogenous Agmatine Has Neuroprotective Effects Against Restraint-Induced Structural Changes in the Rat Brain

Exogenous Agmatine Has Neuroprotective Effects Against Restraint-Induced Structural Changes in the Rat Brain

Agmatine is an endogenous amine derived from decarboxylation of arginine catalysed by arginine decarboxylase. Agmatine is considered a novel neuromodulator and possesses neuroprotective properties in the central nervous system. The present study examined whether agmatine has neuroprotective effects...
