2013-05-01
Abstract excerpt
In the current study, in vitro neuroprotective effect of the ethyl acetate, methanol, and water extracts of Hypericum perforatum L. growing in Turkey was investigated through testing against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase at 50, 100, and 200μgmL−1, linked to Alzheimer's disease, and tyrosinase at 250μgmL−1, related to Parkinson's disease. As neurodegeneration is strongly correlated with oxidative d...
