Withania somnifera root extract has been used traditionally in ayurvedic system of medicine as a memory enhancer. Present study explores the ameliorative effect withanolide A, major component withania and its molecular mechanism against hypoxia induced impairment. Withanolide A was administered to male Sprague Dawley rats before period 21 days pre-exposure during 07 exposure simulated altitude 25,000 ft. Glutathione level glutathione dependent free radicals scavenging enzyme system, ATP,...

Adverse environmental conditions such as hypobaric hypoxia (HH) cause memory impairment by affecting cellular machinery leading to neurodegeneration. Providing enriched environment (EE) is found be beneficial for curing several neurodegenerative disorders. The protective role of EE in preventing HH induced neuronal death has been reported previously but the involved mechanism still not clearly understood. present study an attempt verify impact on spatial during and also explore possible...
