AbstractAbstract
[en] We have screened the cytoprotective effect on γ-ray radiation induced oxidative stress from eighteen Korean plant extracts. Quercus salicina, Clerodendron trichotomum, Lamium amplexicaule, Lozote lancifolia and Malus baccata were found to scavenge 1,1-DiPheny1-2-PicrylHydrazy1 (DPPH) radical and intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). As a result, extracts of these plants reduced cell death of Chinese hamster lung fibroblast (V79-4) cells induced by H2O2 treatment. In addition, these extracts protected cell death of V79-4 cells damaged by γ-ray radiation. In addition, these extracts scavenged ROS generated by radiation. Taken together, the results suggest that Quercus salicina, Clerodendron trichotomum, Lamium amplexicaule, Lozote lancifolia and Malus baccata protect V79-4 cells against oxidative damage by radiation through scavenging ROS
