Monascus-fermented metabolites repressed amyloid β-peptide-induced neurotoxicity and inflammatory response in in vitro and in vivo studies

Monascus purpureus-produced monascin (MS) and ankaflavin (AK) have the potential to improve memory deficiency in Alzheimer's disease rat models; however, the mechanisms are still unclear. We aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of MS and AK on preventing Aβ40-induced oxidative stress...
