  • Title: Antioxidative and hepatoprotective diarylheptanoids from the bark of Alnus japonica.
    Author: Tung NH, Kim SK, Ra JC, Zhao YZ, Sohn DH, Kim YH.
    Journal: Planta Med; 2010 Apr; 76(6):626-9. PubMed ID: 19918716.
    Abstract:
    The present study to evaluate the potential of constituents of the bark of Alnus japonica as a functional food with medicinal properties led to the identification of one new diarylheptanoid, named alusenone (1A), and 11 known ones (1B and 2-11). Their antioxidative and hepatoprotective activities were accessed by, respectively, a TOSC assay and a TBH-induced hepatotoxicity rat model. Mixtures 1, 2-6, 10, and 11 showed good antioxidative and hepatoprotective effects as compared with the positive controls.
