Abstract

In vitro studies revealed that phytoecdysterone isolated from Silence nutans and Silence tatarica activates the formation of superoxide in model systems of quercetin and adrenaline autooxidation. It is shown that phytoecdysterone suppresses the development an ascorbate and NADPH 2-dependent iron induced lipid peroxidation. Phytoecdysterone is comparable with cudesane (vitamin E and coenzyme Q10) on ability to suppress ascorbate-depend lipid peroxidation.
