3-N-Butylphthalide (NBP) Attenuates the Amyloid-ß-Induced Inflammatory Responses in Cultured Astrocytes via the Nuclear Factor-κB Signaling Pathway

Background/Aims: Activation of astrocytes is a common feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Proinflammatory molecules produced by activated astrocytes contribute to neuronal damage in AD. Moreover, dl-3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) has been reported to attenuate astroglial activation and exert neuropr...
