Therapeutic Role of Scutellarein in Neurological Disorders

Scutellarein, a flavone found in the perennial herb Scutellaria baicalensis, has a wide range of pharmacological actions, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective. Increasing evidence has emphasized the developing significance of scutellarein in several neurological illnesses, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, cerebral ischemia, and neuroblastoma. This review is centered on the molecular processes that underlie the neuroprotective properties of scutellarein in various neurological disorders, as indicated by recent pre-clinical research. Furthermore, it critically examines the potential challenges and advantages of scutellarein inclusion within the range of treatments for neurological disorders.
