Schematic diagram showing the proposed mechanism underlying neuroprotective effect of AE leaf extract against glutamate-induced oxidative toxicity. AE leaf extract provides neuronal cell protection against oxidative stress-mediated apoptosis induced by excessive extracellular glutamate by suppressing ROS formation, inhibiting AIF translocation into the nucleus, and activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway
