In vivo investigation on the potential of galangin, kaempferol and myricetin for protection of d-galactose-induced cognitive impairment

► Neuroprotective potential of galangin, kaempferol and myricetin. ► Galangin, kaempferol and myricetin attenuated the oxidative stress in hippocampus. ► Galangin, kaempferol and myricetin enhanced the hippocampal activity of Na+,K+-ATPase. ► Galangin, kaempferol and myricetin modulated the ERK1/2-CREB signaling pathway.
