Amentoflavone attenuates oxidative stress and neuroinflammation induced by cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats by targeting HMGB1-mediated TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT: Surveys indicated that stroke classified among the leading cause of death as well as combined death and disability worldwide resulting in a great loss for the global economy. The present study aims to evaluate the neuroprotective potential of the biflavonoid amentoflavone (AMNT) in alleviating cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury in rats, and to elucidate the possible underlying mechanism of an experimental condition with similar circumstances to stroke. Cerebral ischemia was achieved through left common carotid artery occlusion for 60 min, followed by blood flow restoration. Sham-operated control rats subjected to the same surgical process except for brain IR. Rats were orally administered AMNT/ or vehicle for three days' prior surgical operation, and for another three days after lef
