摘要
Recent studies have shown biological effects of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) induction and antioxidation in cardiovascular disorders. The ethanol extracts of leaves of 12 selected indigenous Taiwanese plants were investigated for their antioxidant activities, evaluated using assays of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl, and superoxide radicals scavenging and reducing power activities as well as the induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Acer alboputpurascens. Cinnamomum kanehirai, Diospyros discolor, Excoecaria kawakamii, Koelreuteria henryi, and Syzygiun formosanum showed better DPPH-scavenging activities than the other plants. IC50 values ranged from 1.7 to 8.7 mu g/mL. Excepting Millettia pulchra var. microphylla and Pittosporum moluccanum, the extracts displayed hydroxyl-scavenging activities (IC50 of 0.16-0.67 mu g/mL). A. albopurpurascens, D. discolor, K. henryi, and S.formosanum also showed good superoxide anion radical scavenging activities and IC50 values ranged from 12.9 to 28.5 mu g/mL. D. discolor, K. henryi, and S. formosanum showed potent reducing power and M. pulchra var. microphylla and S. formosanum exhibited potent HO-1 induced activity. These active plant extracts also contained abundant phenolic constituents. The present results provide candidates to isolate the active constituents and develop natural antioxidants.
