Liuweidihuang-tang improves spatial memory function and increases neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus in rats

The aqueous extract of Liuweidihuang-tang given to rats at doses of 100 mg/kg/day for 10 days induced a reduction in the frequency of error and increased neurogenesis in the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Our data suggest that Liuweidihuang-tang improves spatial learning ability by increasing neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus.
