Neuroprotective against stroke and traumatic brain injury discovered in compound derived from curry spice

A synthetic derivative of the curry spice turmeric, made by scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, dramatically improves the behavioral and molecular deficits seen in animal models of ischemic stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Two new studies suggest that the novel compound may have clinical promise for these conditions, which currently lack good therapies.

Laten we hopen dat dit echt iets oplevert. Er wordt ook al jaren onderzoek gedaan naar glutamaat-antagonisten, maar dat heeft tot op heden niets tastbaars opgeleverd.
That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.
