Aniracetam restores the effects of amyloid-beta protein or ageing on membrane fluidity and intracellular calcium concentration in mice synaptosomes

In the present study, we observed the in vitro effect of aniracetam on membrane fluidity and free calcium concentrations (Ca(2+)i) of frontal cortical (FC) and hippocampal (HP) synaptosomes of aged mice and young mice treated with amyloid-beta protein (A

Two new compounds and anti-HIV active constituents from Illicium verum

Two new compounds named illiverin A (1) and tashironin A (8) were, isolated from the roots of Illicium verum, together with seven known compounds: 4-allyl-2-(3-methylbut-2-enyl)-1,6-methylenedioxybenzene-3-ol (2), illicinole (3), 3-hydroxy-4,5-methylenedi
