Abstract
Sophora flavescens, the source of oxymatrine, is gaining popularity due to its potential in neuroprotection and treatment of various neurological conditions like epilepsy, depression, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis. Its natural occurrence and promising preliminary research highlight its ability to reduce nerve cell damage and inflammation, attributed to its antiapoptotic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, challenges like solubility, potential adverse effects and limited bioavailability hinder its full therapeutic utilization. Current strategies, including formulation optimization and innovative drug delivery systems, aim to enhance its efficacy and safety. Despite its potential, further research is necessary to overcome these obstacles and maximize its clinical effectiveness. Conclusively, oxymatrine demonstrates distinct neuroprotective properties, offering unique advantages over other agents currently being studied or used in clinical practice for neurological disorders. nevertheless, additional study is necessary to surmount current obstacles and maximize its effectiveness for clinical settings. This study provides a comprehensive overview of oxymatrine's neuroprotective mechanisms and therapeutic potential while emphasizing the need for continued investigation and development for practical clinical application.
