Magnolol Reduces Glutamate-Induced Neuronal Excitotoxicity and Protects against Permanent Focal Cerebral Ischemia Up to 4 Hours

Neuroprotective efficacy of magnolol, 5,5′-dially-2,2′-dihydroxydiphenyl, was investigated in a model of stroke and cultured neurons exposed to glutamate-induced excitotoxicity. Rats were subjected to permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO). Magnolol or vehicle was administered intraperit...
