Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) Attenuates Dichlorvos-Induced Neurobehavioral and Oxido-Inflammatory Stress in Discrete Brain Regions

Background: Dichlorvos is a widely used organophosphate pesticide associated with neurotoxicity through acetylcholinesterase inhibition, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Chronic exposure may cause neuronal dysfunction and structural brain alterations. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C), a potent antioxidant, may provide neuroprotection against oxidative damage. This study evaluated the protective…
