Oroxylin A is an O-methylated flavone, a chemical compound that can be found in the medicinal plants Scutellaria baicalensis[1] and Scutellaria lateriflora,[2][3] and the Oroxylum indicum tree.
[4] It has demonstrated activity as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor,[5] and is also a negative allosteric modulator of the benzodiazepine site of the GABAA receptor.
[5][6][7] Oroxylin A has been found to improve memory consolidation in mice by elevating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels in the hippocampus.
