Skullcap is known to contain a wide array of phytochemicals, with the most significant

ones being flavonoids, especially baicalin. These compounds have been

extensively studied for their antioxidant properties, which can help neutralize free

radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress. The presence of other flavonoids like

wogonin, oroxylin A, and scutellarin also contributes to the plant's therapeutic potential

Anti-anxiety effects of Scutellaria lateriflora has been studied in both humans and

animals. A double blind study in humans to study the anxiolytic effects of American

skullcap suggested that the group receiving skullcap capsules rated reduction in

anxiety parameters when compared to the placebo and that the antianxiety effects was

dose-dependent (Wolfson and Hoffman, 2003). In summary, S. lateriflora extract were

found to have protective effects which suppress apoptosis and by increasing

anti-oxidative capacity of neurons therefore, provide novel insights into the molecular

mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective activity of S. lateriflora compounds using

PC12 (pheochromocytoma) and H19-7 (hippocampal) cells from mice (Lohani, 2014).
