Hypothetical presentation of possible mechanisms of action of Majun Khadar (MK) against cerebral ischemia. Free radicals and inflammation are two major precipitators of ischemic cell death. Different constituents of MK have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and many of them act as vasodilator, relaxant, nervine tonic and nerve stimulant which directly or indirectly prevent ischemic damage.
