Effects of aqueous extract of myrmecodia platytyrea on non-spatial memory in mice using object recognition test / Siti Hasyimah Jusoh
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease that induces memory impairment and dementia in the elderly. Pathologically AD is characterized by increased levels of the amyloid-B (AP) peptide and hyperphosphorylated tau protein (p tau). It occurs in part due to oxidative...
