In this Correspondence, a comment to a recent paper by Nikbakht et al., published in the latest ssu of this Journal is reported. The flavone apigenin can exert both its anti-oxidant potetial via the usual enzymatic ROS scavenging system and the mitochondria biogenesis via the PGC-1α/ TFAM/NRF-1 pathway. The very interesting paper by Nikbakht et al, may earn more insighful clues about the activity of apigenin in the prevention of the rat hippocampus neuronal loss caused by the Aβ25-35 injection.

Abstract
In this Correspondence, a comment to a recent paper by Nikbakht et al., published in the latest ssu of this Journal is reported. The flavone apigenin can exert both its anti-oxidant potetial via the usual enzymatic ROS scavenging system and the mitochondria biogenesis via the PGC-1α/ TFAM/NRF-1 pathway. The very interesting paper by Nikbakht et al, may earn more insighful clues about the activity of apigenin in the prevention of the rat hippocampus neuronal loss caused by the Aβ25-35 injection.
