This study focuses on evaluating NGF (Nerve Growth Factor) expression in a rat model of traumatic brain injury, exploring the potential therapeutic effects of &lt;em&gt;Kaempferia galanga L&lt;/em&gt;. extract. &lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Male Wistar rats were used in the experiment, and traumatic brain injury was induced using Marmarou's weight drop model. Four groups of rats were studied: a negative control group, a group with traumatic brain injury without &lt;em&gt;Kaempferia galanga L&lt;/em&gt;. extract, and two groups with traumatic brain injury treated with different doses of &lt;em&gt;Kaempferia galanga L.&lt;/em&gt; extract. Rats were divided further based on the time of decapitation, either 24 or 48 hours post-injury. NGF expression was assessed using immunohistochemistry. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The study confirmed NGF expression variations among groups, with stronger expression observed 48 hours post-injury in rats receiving 1200 mg/kgbb of &lt;em&gt;Kaempferia galanga L.&lt;/em&gt; extract. This suggests a potential impact of the extract on NGF expression, likely attributed to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. &lt;strong&gt;Discussion:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;Kaempferia galanga L&lt;/em&gt;. extract has known anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, which may contribute to increased NGF expression observed in this study. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; This study sheds light on the potential benefits of&lt;em&gt; Kaempferia galanga L&lt;/em&gt;. extract in promoting NGF expression and improving outcomes in traumatic brain injury, emphasizing the need for further investigation to translate these findings into clinical practice.&lt;/p&gt;
