Neuroprotective effect of noscapine on cerebral oxygen-glucose deprivation injury.

CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that noscapine had a neuroprotective effect, which could be due to its interference with multiple targets in the excitotoxicity process. These effects could be mediated partially by a decrease in NO production and the modulation of intracellular calcium levels. PMID: 25712651 [PubMed - in process]
