Cognitive improvement and hippocampal BDNF/GFAP alterations by Schinus molle essential oil in a rat model of scopolamine-induced amnesia

Puntos clave

• Cognitive improvement occurs with Schinus molle essential oil treatment for scopolamine-induced amnesia in rats, reversing memory deficits.
• Significant changes in hippocampal BDNF and GFAP levels highlight biochemical alterations associated with enhanced cognitive function.
• Assessment involved a rat model where scopolamine was used to induce amnesia, focusing on memory recovery post-treatment.
• Findings suggest that Schinus molle essential oil may hold therapeutic potential for cognitive impairments related to memory deficits.
