Background and Aims: The main aim of the study was to enhance the cognitive function of the brain by nootropic herbal formulations in animal models. Polyphyto herbal formulations were known to enhance the cognition and memory function by several pathways such as anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, and cell signaling pathways. In this study, six formulations were prepared by mixing specified plant parts and were coded as NHF1, NHF2, NHF3, NHF4, NHF5, and NHF6. Methods: The potency of the formulations was assessed by In vivo (photo actometer, rod walking test, pole climbing test, and Ellman’s acetylcholinesterase test) studies. Results: NHF1 and NHF5 exhibited greater activity than the standard drug donepezil in vivo (Ellman’s acetylcholinesterase test) analysis. NHF1 and NHF5 formulations containing plant parts were further investigated against several published literatures for the identification of chemical constituents and those chemical constituents were subjected to molecular docking and in silico ADME prediction studies to figure out the possible compounds responsible for the cholinesterase inhibition activity. Conclusion: In conclusion, the computational studies also reveal that presence of chemical constituents such as sarsasapogenin (13.13 nM), racemosol (16.26 nM), and beta-sitosterol (30.47 nM) having binding energy (-10.75 kcal/mol), (-10.63 kcal/mol), (-10.25 kcal/mol), might be directly responsible for the nootropic activity.
