Madecassoside encapsulated in alginate chitosan nanoparticles exerts anti-excitotoxicity effects in pilocarpine-induced seizure

Madecassoside (MAD), a pentacyclic triterpenoid saponin, and its source herb Centella asiatica are best known for their memory enhancing and neuroprotective properties. The effects of MAD- and similar secondary metabolite-encapsulated nanoparticles on brain are least explored. Henceforth, we have de...
