Neuropharmacological properties of Withania somnifera - Indian Ginseng: An overview on experimental evidence with emphasis on Clinical trials and patents.

CONCLUSION In order to realize the full therapeutic potential of WS extracts/its bioactives, systematic contemporary approaches such as bioinformatics, molecular docking studies, identification of specific gene targets as well as understanding the post-translational and epigenetic regulation of the various effects are necessary. Further, well designed clinical trials are required to exploit the neuromodulatory propensity of WS extract/bioactives in specific neurodegenerative diseases such as AD and PD.
