Popis: In the present study, we confirmed that α-asaronol, which is a product of the active metabolites of alpha Asarone, did not affect n-butylphthalide efficacy when n-butylphthalide and α-asaronol were co-administered to rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Our research revealed that the co-administration of α-asaronol and n-butylphthalide could further improve neurological function, reduce brain infarct volume, increase the number of Nissl bodies, and decrease the ratios of apoptotic cells and the expression of the caspase-3 protein for cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model compared to n-butylphthalide alone. Additionally, α-asaronol could significantly decrease the incidence of post-stroke epilepsy versus n-butylphthalide. This study provides valuable data for the follow-up prodrug research of α-asaronol and n-butylphthalide.
