Abstract: | AIM:To assess the antioxidative activity of a new cyclic diaryheptanoid (compound 1) from ginger on free radical damage. METHODS: Hemolysis, MDA levels of mice liver tissue homogenates, the conformation changes of irradiated PUC18 were used as indices. RESULTS:Compound 1 significantly reduced the hemolysis of human red blood cells induced by H2O2 (P<0.01) and MDA level in the liver of mice (P<0.01), raised the percentage of the supercoil conformation of plasmid PUC18 induced by60Co]γ-rays (P<0.05 or P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Compound 1 had a good activity on suppressing oxygen free radical damage. |
