Abstract: Traumatic brain damage is common worldwide and the treatments are not well-defined. Vinpocetine is a synthetic derivative of the vinca alkaloid vincamine and is clin. being used for various brain disorders. Here in the current study, we have investigated the neuroprotective potential of vinpocetine against traumatic brain injury. TBI was induced by the Marmarou weight drop method in rats. Brain damage was evaluated using cognitive and motor functions and the alterations in biomols. Injured rats were treated with different doses of vinpocetine (2.5, 5, and 10 mg/kg) for 4 wk. Traumatic brain injury in rats produced significant deterioration of cognition and motor functions, which was accompanied by increased oxidative stress and significant alterations in brain monoamine levels as compared with the sham control group (p < 0.05). Vinpocetine alleviated TBI-induced oxidative burden, altered neurochem., and improved the cognitive and motor functions as compared with that of the TBI control group (p < 0.05). The observed neuroprotective potential of vinpocetine may be due to the observed antioxidant potential and its ability to restore the levels of brain neurochems. under stressed conditions. The outcomes of the current study may help the repositioning of vinpocetine for preventing or treating traumatic brain injuries. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (41S,13aS)-Ethyl 13a-ethyl-2,3,41,5,6,13a-hexahydro-1H-indolo[3,2,1-de]pyrido[3,2,1-ij][1,5]naphthyridine-12-carboxylate (cas: 42971-09-5Name: (41S,13aS)-Ethyl 13a-ethyl-2,3,41,5,6,13a-hexahydro-1H-indolo[3,2,1-de]pyrido[3,2,1-ij][1,5]naphthyridine-12-carboxylate).
(41S,13aS)-Ethyl 13a-ethyl-2,3,41,5,6,13a-hexahydro-1H-indolo[3,2,1-de]pyrido[3,2,1-ij][1,5]naphthyridine-12-carboxylate (cas: 42971-09-5) belongs to naphthyridine derivatives. The naphthyridine ring system, being very π-deficient, is highly vulnerable towards nucleophilic attack, and consequently there has been extensive investigation of reactions involving nitrogen nucleophiles. Transition metal complexes of 1,5-naphthyridine (1,5-napy) seems to form one-dimensional coordination polymers with the ligand acting as bidentate in a “stepped” bridging fashion.Name: (41S,13aS)-Ethyl 13a-ethyl-2,3,41,5,6,13a-hexahydro-1H-indolo[3,2,1-de]pyrido[3,2,1-ij][1,5]naphthyridine-12-carboxylate
