Effect of yellow rice wine on anti-aging ability in aged mice induced by d-galactose by Rong Liu, Zukang Fu, Fengjie Zhang, Qingzhong Mao, Chunguang Luan, Xinglin Han, Jie Xue, Deliang Wang, Si Qin, Feike Hao

“…Besides, results from the Morris water maze test suggested that YRW significantly reversed cognitive impairment and also alleviated neuroapoptosis in the experimental mice by regulating the gene expressions of Bax/Bcl-2 and caspase-3. The above results indicated YRW has a potential anti-aging effect in mice and provided us certain molecular evidence for this action.…”
