Our results suggest the mechanism for the neuro-protective impact of berbamine, bergapten, and carveol might possibly be arbitrated via COX-2, TNF-α, and NF-κB, and regulated by mitogen-activated protein kinase, ultimately ameliorating STZ-provoked, DM-induced neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration, and associated neuropathic pain. The gene discussed is PTGS2; the disease is diabetes mellitus.
