Experimental neurodegeneration in hippocampus and its phytoremidation.
Present study reports cytological and biochemical changes associated with stress induced neurodegeneration in hippocampal subregion of the brain in animals subjected to physical stressors such as immobilization or swimming stress for specific period of time. Studies also demonstrate neuroprotective activity of herbal extract in brain.
