Promising Therapeutics with Natural Bioactive Compounds for Improving Learning and Memory — A Review of Randomized Trials

Abstract: Cognitive disorders can be associated with brain trauma, neurodegenerative disease or as a part of physiological aging. Aging in humans is generally associated with deterioration of cognitive performance and, in particular, learning and memory. Different therapeutic approaches are available to treat cognitive impairment during physiological aging and neurodegenerative or psychiatric disorders. Traditional herbal medicine and numerous plants, either directly as supplements or indirectly in the form of food, imp… Show more

“…The use of substances from traditional medicine as novel drug libraries resembles an innovative way of finding therapeutics (Appleby and Cummings 2013). Numerous natural products have already been used traditionally as memory enhancers and preventers of senescence-induced cognitive decline (summarized in Kumar et al 2012). Galantamine for example is an alkaloid derivative isolated from members of the Amaryllidaceae family which proved to exhibit behavioral benefits (for a contemporary metaanalysis see Tan et al 2014).…”

“…Petroleum ether extract contains fats and fixed oil while aqueous extract contains amino acids, tannins (condensed and pseudo tannins) and starch [5]. IR has been reported to possess various pharmacological actions, mainly antidiabetic [6], antiinflammatory [7], nephroprotective [8], antibacterial [9], antioxidant and antimicrobial activity [10]. Further, the principle constituents of IR such as sinapic and ferulic acids have exhibited behavioural and pharmacological…”
