with DHAwas determined according to the median-effect principle and classical isobologram equation of Chou-Talay (Chou, 2006). Calculations were performed using CompuSyn software (v1.0). Dose-response curves were plotted for each compound to calculate their respective doses with 50% effect (ED50) in determining synergism. Synergismwas confirmed by combination index (CI) calculations < 1. Results: Out of the nine combinations used, luteolin at 5mMand DHA at 10mMwas determined as slightly synergistic with a CI value of 0.83 and all other combinations had antagonistic effects. Conclusions: Further studies in other cell lines are required to determine the optimal concentrations and combinations of luteolin and DHA to exert a synergistic effect in neutralizing Ab1-42 -induced toxicity.
