Popis: Objective: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, can be created in experimental models by using toxins. Possible therapeutic effects of secondary metabolites Rosmarinic (RA) and Oleanolic acids (OA) obtained from Salvia species (sage) were investigated using histopathological and immunohistochemical tecniques in experimental Alzheimer's-like dementia model induced by scopolamine. Study Design: Male BALB/c mice (n: 48) of 3-4 weeks old, divided into 6 groups; control received only saline(i.p.) for 21 days, scopolamine group received 3 mg/kg of scopolamine (i.p.) between 8-21th days. Scopolamine + RA group received 5 mg/kg RA (i.p.) between days 0 and 21 and 3 mg/kg of scopolamine (i.p.) between 8-21th days. Scopolamine + OA group received 5 mg/kg of OA (i.p.) between days of 0-21 and 3 mg/kg of scopolamine (i.p.) between 8-21th days. RA group received 5 mg/kg RA (i.p.) between 0-21th days. OA group received 5 mg/kg of OA (i.p.) between 0-21th days. Animals were sacrificed under anesthesia, brain tissues were excised and placed in 10% formaldehyde, embedded in paraffin wax. 5 µm sections were cut, stained for histopathological examinations. Immunoreactivity for Beta-amyloid accumulation was observed. ImageJ 153 software was used to analyze IHC figures. Positive signaling for DAB density was calculated, ANOVA test with the post hoc dunnett's or tukey test were applied, p
