Abstract excerpt
The role of oxidative stress and free radicals in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been the focus of many recent studies. The role of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in AD is thought to be associated with Abeta (amyloid - beta) damage in cells. A number of coumarin derivatives were previously found to be potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents. Herein, these coumarin derivatives were tested as...
