Flavonoid Glycosides Isolated from Unique Legume Plant Extracts as Novel Inhibitors of Xanthine Oxidase
(2012)
Legumes and the polyphenolic compounds present in them have gained a lot of interest due to their beneficial health implications. Dietary polyphenolic compounds, especially flavonoids, exert antioxidant properties and are ...
Assessment of antioxidant activity of extracts from unique Greek varieties of Leguminosae plants using in vitro assays
(2007)
Background: It is believed that legumes are a very good source of micronutrients and phytochemicals that present chemopreventive activity against diseases such as diabetes, coronary heart disease and colon cancer. Methanolic ...
Antioxidant and chemopreventive properties of polyphenolic compounds derived from Greek legume plant extracts
(2008)
Recently, phytochemical compounds present in legumes have gained a lot of interest because they are considered to be possible chemopreventive agents. In the present study, 14 polyphenolic compounds were extracted and ...
Effect of Leguminosae family plant extracts and polyphenolic fractions on topoisomerase I-induced nicking of DNA
(2008)
Topoisomerase I constitutes one of the enzymes playing crucial role in replication, transcription, recombination, chromosome condensation and maintenance of genome stability. Because it is an essential enzyme for vital ...
Effects of Greek legume plant extracts on xanthine oxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities
(2012)
Legumes are considered to have beneficial health implications, which have been attributed to their phytochemical content. Polyphenols are considered the most important phytochemical compounds extensively studied for their ...
Grape pomace extract exerts antioxidant effects through an increase in GCS levels and GST activity in muscle and endothelial cells
(2015)
In a previous study, we demonstrated that a grape pomace extract (GPE) exerted antioxidant activity in endothelial (EA. hy926) and muscle (C2C12) cells through an increase in glutathione (GSH) levels. In the present study, ...
Catalytic Inhibition of Eukaryotic Topoisomerases I and II by Flavonol Glycosides Extracted from Vicia faba and Lotus edulis
(2011)
Topoisomerases are essential enzymes involved in all processes of DNA metabolism, and their inhibitors have been identified as potential anticancer agents. The present study examined the effect of nine polyphenolic compounds ...
