Abstract
ABSTRACT The anti-hyperlipidemic potential of Algerian date palm fruits of three varieties [Deglet nour (DN), Ghars (GH), Degla baida (DB)] and its influence on oxidative stress were explored in rat models using human hepatocellular carcinoma cells (HepG2). Phenolic profile and total phenolic content of the extracts revealed in vitro antioxidant potential, which was confirmed using HepG2 cells. Reduction of TBARS level and increase in NO levels were observed in cell medium. In vivo assays showed that administration of date extracts influenced the hypolipidemic effect in rats by decreasing total cholesterol (−51% for DB, −31% for GH and −30% for DN), triacylglycerol (−61% for DN, −54% for DB and −32% for GH) and LDL-Cholesterol, while increasing HDL-Cholesterol level, indicating strong cardioprotective properties of date fruit.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is an essential reference filled with recent research and other valuable information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. The Journal serves as a focus point through which investigators and others may publish material of importance to the production, marketing, and utilization of these plants and associated extracts. The journal covers the following topics: growth, development, horticulture, ecology, physiology, genetics, chemistry, and economics. Original articles, review articles, and book reviews provide information of interest to an international audience of researchers, teachers, technicians, and managers involved with production and/or marketing of herbs, spices, and medicinal plants. Managers of food companies, food processing facilities, medical research laboratories, government agencies, and others interested in new chemicals, food additives, international trade, patents, and other items can easily review new findings. The Journal of Herbs, Spices & Medicinal Plants is a forum in which recent research and other information associated with herbs, spices, and medicinal plants is shared. The Journal represents a centralized database accessible by investigators within the international community that work with or have an interest in herbs, spices, and medicinal plants.
