Oroxylin A Description
Oroxylin A is a flavonoid isolated from Scutellaria baicalensis, which is one of the most important medicinal herbs in traditional Korean/Chinese/Japanese medicine. Oroxylin A has been found to improve memory consolidation in mice by elevating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in the hippocampus.
Oroxylin A is an O-methylated flavone that comes from Scutellaria baicalensis and Scutellaria lateriflora plants as well as the Oroxylum indicum tree.
