| Research Abstract |
Inhibition of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by antioxidant curcumin has attracted the attention of scientists. Curcumin effect on Alzheimer’s disease was examined for short-term memory impairment, reduced amyloid deposits and tau hyperphoshorylation using AD model mouse. Our study demonstrates that curcumin is not only inhibited Aβ deposition but also to prevent Tau phosphorylation. Thus, curcumin might be considered to prevent the AD.
