Abstract: Provided are novel use of an extract of Lycoris chejuensis or a compound isolated therefrom for inhibition of ?-amyloid production and/or prevention, improvement and/or treatment of a neurodegenerative disease, more specifically a ?-amyloid production inhibitor, and/or a composition for prevention or treatment of a neurodegenerative disease containing one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of an extract of Lycoris chejuensis, and/or dihydrolycoricidine, 2-methoxypancracine, lycoricidine, and/or lycoricidinol, as an active ingredient; a method for inhibiting ?-amyloid production, and/or preventing and/or treating a neurodegenerative disease using the same; and, a method for preparing the same.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a composition for prevention or treatment of neurodegenerative disease comprising longan arillus extract, or combined extract comprising longan arillus. The composition exhibits remarkably excellent prevention or treatment effect of neurodegenerative disease by containing longan arillus extract or combined extract comprising longan arillus, and particularly, it may effectively prevent or treat neurodegenerative disease by significantly protecting dopaminergic neurons from neurotoxicity due to MPTP selectively acting on dopaminergic nervous system and neurotoxicity due to aggregation of alpha-synuclein proteins.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing and/or treating dementia comprising extracts of Monsonia sp.; a food composition for preventing and/or improving dementia comprising extracts of Monsonia sp.; and a method of preparing an extract of Monsonia sp. with excellent inhibitory effect on the formation of ?-amyloid. The plant extract can inhibit the formation of ?-amyloid which has been known as a factor causing the dementia, especially Alzheimer's disease, thereby being used for preventing, improving and/or treating the dementia.

Abstract: A composition for preventing and/or treating dementia and ameliorating memory impairment and/or improving memory, comprising one or more arylnaphthalene lignan derivatives, such as Justicidin A, 5-methoxyjusticidin A, Chinensinaphthol, and a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, as active ingredient.

Abstract: There is provided use of Lycoris aurea extracts, and/or fractions thereof, and/or lycoricidine and lycoricidinol separated from the extracts or fractions for prevention and/or treatment of dementia.
