THE ROLE OF HERBAL COMPOUNDS IN THE TREATMENT OF CEREBRAL ISCHEMIA
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacognosy - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Stroke is the sudden blockage or rupture of cerebral arteries that can leads to cerebral damage or clinical neurologic deficit. Generally, stroke is as ischemic and hemorrhagic. Ischemia caused by factors such as thrombosis, embolism and systemic hypo-perfusion. Stroke is one of the most important factors of mortality and disability in the worldwide. After stroke, increase of free radicals has most important role in breakdown of blood - brain and increase of cerebral edema. The aim of this study was to review the effect of compounds isolated from plants to reduce cerebral ischemia. Our review showed that natural compounds could exert a protective effect by reduction of oxidative stress and events related with it. We also suggest that consider a special attention to natural product for treatment of cerebral ischemia.
