| Scientific Background | (+)-Abscisic Acid (ABA) is a naturally occurring plant hormone primarily recognized for its role in regulating plant stress responses, seed dormancy, and stomatal closure. While its origins are botanical, emerging research has identified ABA as a bioactive molecule with potential relevance in mammalian systems, including the central nervous system. Recent studies suggest that ABA may influence neuroinflammatory pathways and oxidative stress—two key mechanisms implicated in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Its ability to modulate immune responses and cellular signaling cascades positions ABA as a promising candidate for further investigation in neuroinflammation and neuroprotection research. |
