Structural identification of compounds from Toona sinensis leaves with antioxidant and anticancer activities

Non-targeted metabolomics and scavenging activity of reactive oxygen species reveal the potential of Salicornia brachiata as a functional food

“…A strong positive correlation between antioxidant activity and total flavonoid content was reported in Gynura procumbens (Kaewseejan, Sutthikhum, & Siriamornpun, 2015). A flavonoid quercetin (quercetin 3-β-D-glucoside) isolated from Satureja montana contained antioxidant activity (López-Cobo, Gómez-Caravaca, Švarc-Gajić, Segura-Carretero, & Fernández-Gutiérrez, 2014), whereas quercetin (quercetin-3-O-α-L-rhamnopyranoside) obtained from Toona sinensis was reported to be an antioxidant with anticancer activities (Zhang et al, 2014). Additionally, bioactive compounds were identified along with bactericidal, insecticidal and fungicidal activities.…”

Phenolic compositions, and antioxidant performance of olive leaf and fruit (Olea europaea L.) extracts and their structure–activity relationships

“…Several epidemiological studies have strongly suggested that a high intake of plant products is associated with a significantly decreased risk for numerous chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis, inflammation, diabetes and certain types of cancer (Viuda-Martos et al, 2010;Zhang et al, 2014). These beneficial effects have been partly ascribed to compounds possessing antioxidant activity (Podsedek, 2007).…”

Antihepatitis C Virus Activity of Indonesian Mahogany (Toona Sureni)

“…T. sinensis has activity for antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-inflammation, radical scavenging, and antioxidant in the liver. T. ciliata and T. pubescens have been used traditionally as a treatment for diarrhea, as cardiotonic, astringent, and antioxidant [8,[14][15][16][17][18]. However, Jain et al reported in his research that the antioxidant activity level can affect reduction of chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis [19].…”
