Free Radical Scavenging and Hepatoprotective Constituents from the Leaves of Juglans sinensis

In the course of searching for hepatoprotective agents from natural products, six compounds were isolated from the MeOH extract of the leaves of Juglans sinensis, as guided by their DPPH free radical scavenging activity, and compounds 1, 2, and 5 showed protective effects against nitrofurantoin-induced cytotoxicity.

Antioxidative and antiproliferative activities of different horsetail (Equisetum arvense L.) extracts.

The results obtained suggest that the horsetail extracts could be used as an easily accessible source of natural antioxidants and as potential phytochemicals.

Hepatoprotective Activity of Cichorium endivia L. Extract and Its Chemical Constituents

Taken together, CEE protects hepatic tissue from oxidative damage in vitro and in vivo, potentially due to its phenolic substances, and does not cause acute oral toxicity, which suggests that CEE may be a valid and safe remedy to cure liver disease.
