Abstract

Seabuckthorn flavonoids mimicked neurotrophic functions in inducing neuronal cell differentiation via activating PI3K/Akt and ERK pathways. The results suggest the beneficial functions of Seabuckthorn as a potential health food supplement in treating various brain disorders, e.g., neurodegenerative diseases.
