SY Safflower yellow
Description: <b>Safflower yellow (SY)</b>, a natural pigment extracted from the petals of Carthamus tinctorius (safflower), has shown neuroprotective effects in several models of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD).<br>
-SY was found to improve learning and memory in AD animal model<br>
-SY increases SOD and decreases MDA, a marker of lipid peroxidation<br>
-SY downregulates pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in brain tissues.<br>
