- Abstract
- Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative diseases world-wide. In an effort to search for new strategies for treating AD, natural products have become candi-dates of choice. Plants are a rich source of bioactive and effective compounds used in treating nu-merous diseases. Various plant extracts are known to display neuroprotective activities by targeting different pathophysiological pathways in association with the diseases, such as inhibiting enzymes responsible for degrading neurotransmitters, reducing oxidative stress, neuroprotection, inhibiting amyloid plaque formation, and replenishing mitochondrial function. This review presented a comprehensive evaluation of the available scientific literature (in vivo, in vitro, and in silico) on the neuroprotective mechanisms displayed by the extracts/bioactive compounds from spices belonging to the Apiaceae family in ameliorating AD. © 2021 by the authors.
