In this study, we
used in traditional medicine for the therapy of a variety of
disorders naturally from plants known as AV. In the induced sciatic
nerve ischemia model in rats, AV due to antioxidant property
exerted a histopathologically verified axonoprotective effect on the ischemic sciatic nerve segments. Furthermore, following the
treatment with AV and MP, MDA level was decreased, and SOD
and NRF-1 values were increased in biochemical investigations,
indicating a significant reduction in the oxidative stress after
ischemia/reperfusion injury.
