✦ Synopsis

The effects of Fructus Schisandrae (Schizandra Chinensis, (FS) on cycloheximide (CXM)-induced amnesia by using a passive avoidance task were studied in rats. FS at 0.25 and 0.75 g/kg administered for 1 week significantly prolonged the CXM-shortened step-through latency (STL). Of the fractions (n-hexane, chloroform and water), only the water fraction at 25 mg/kg administered for 1 week prolonged the CXM-shortened STL. These results suggest that the water fraction is the main active fraction of FS.

We have demonstrated that pretreatment with a lignan-enriched extract of Fructus schisundrue (FS) protected against physical exercise-induced muscle damage in rats. The muscle protection afforded by FS pretreatment was associated with a significant enhancement in hepatic antioxidant status, as asses
