Neurodegenerative diseases have become a challenge to modern societies
in industrialized countries due to the high social and economic impacts
and therefore demand intensive research. These diseases present diverse
common features, in which oxidative stress plays a very important role. As
result of oxidative stress, some molecular mechanisms become
dysfunctional and ultimately lead to cell death. Amongst the compounds
displaying neuroprotective activity, phenolics have been identified
amongst the most active substances from natural sources.(...)
