Abstract

As there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's disease (AD), considerable research is required to create plans to block the processes that cause memory loss. Functionalized nanomedicines that are nanoparticles contain central core structures that guarantee the encapsulation to offer protection and longer blood circulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects of swimming exercise and nanoparticle-encapsulated cardamom oil (NCEO) on aluminum chloride-induced oxidative damage in experimental rats used as models for Alzheimer's disease. Experimental rats were induced for AD then groups were divided into different treatment groups; dopenzil, NCEO and swimming training. Different biochemical and pathological parameters were evaluated in both serum and muscles. Results showed and improvement in the concerned parameters with different treatment strategies. It can be concluded that both swimming and NCEO can be advised for AD patients.
