Research Abstract |
We investigated the effect of 3,5,6,7,8,3',4'-heptamethoxyflavone (HMF), one of the Citrus polymethoxyflavone (PMF), on the injured spinal cord. HMF was i.p. injeceted immediately after the surgery once a day for 4 weeks. We successfully observed that HMF ameliorated the locomotive activity (assessed by BBB score), but BDNF expression (assessed by immune-histochemistry) was not induced by HMF in the spinal cord.
