Dieckol, a Major Marine Polyphenol, Enhances Non-Rapid Eye Movement Sleep in Mice via the GABAA-Benzodiazepine Receptor
We had previously demonstrated that phlorotannins, which are marine polyphenols, enhance sleep in mice via the GABAA-benzodiazepine (BZD) receptor. Among the constituents of phlorotannin, dieckol is a major marine polyphenol from the brown alga Ecklonia cava. Although phlorotannins are known to exer...
