Effect of spice oleoresins on the brain histology at the CA1 region: (a) control; the normal arrangement of pyramidal cells and polymorphic cells. (b) Scopolamine-treated group; degeneration of pyramidal cells and slight disorganization of the pyramidal layer. (c) Scopolamine + pepper oleoresin; partial repair of the pyramidal layer. (d) Scopolamine + chili oleoresin; significant repair of the degenerated pyramidal layer. (e) Scopolamine + turmeric oleoresin and (f) scopolamine + drug; both groups show attenuation of scopolamine-induced degeneration of cells in Alzheimer’s dementia.
