Epicatechin attenuates lead (Pb)-induced cognitive impairment in mice: regulation on Nrf2 signaling pathway, and interference on the interaction between Pb with albumin
Epicatechin (EC) was used in this study to antagonize the cognitive dysfunction caused by lead (Pb) exposure in mice. Eight-week-old male Kunming mice were treated with PbCl2 (20 mg/kg) and/or EC (50 mg/kg) by gavage administration for 4 weeks. Morris water maze test showed that EC could improve mem...
