Tetramethylpyrazine Nitrone Improves Neurobehavioral Functions and Confers Neuroprotection on Rats with Traumatic Brain Injury.

In conclusion, TBN improves neurobehavioral functions and protects neurons against TBI. This protective effect may be achieved by anti-neuronal apoptosis, alleviating oxidative stress damage and up-regulating Nrf-2 and HO-1 expression.
