Neuroprotective Activity of Melittin-The Main Component of Bee Venom-Against Oxidative Stress Induced by Aβ<sub>25-35</sub> in In Vitro and In Vivo Models
Melittin, a 26-amino acid peptide, is the main component of the venom of four honeybee species and exhibits neuroprotective actions. However, it is unclear how melittin ameliorates neuronal cells in oxidative stress and how it affects memory impairment in an in vivo model. We evaluated the neuroprot...
