Neuroprotective Effects of Chondrus ocellatus and Gracilaria vermiculophylla Extracts Against Corticosterone-induced Neurotoxicity in SH-SY5Y Cells
Key Points
This research investigates the protective effects of Chondrus ocellatus and Gracilaria vermiculophylla extracts against neurotoxicity induced by corticosterone in SH-SY5Y cells.
In vitro analysis of SH-SY5Y cell line
Treatment with corticosterone to induce neurotoxicity
Application of seaweed extracts
Assessment of cell viability post-treatment
Seaweed extracts significantly improve cell viability compared to control
Chondrus ocellatus shows stronger neuroprotective effects than Gracilaria vermiculophylla
Reduction in oxidative stress markers observed with treatment
