Abstract:
:Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common liver disease and its incidence is rising worldwide. We compared the antioxidant capacity of seventeen flavonoids with their inhibitory effects on oleic acid-induced triglyceride (TG) over-accumulation in HepG2 cells. The results showed significant correlations (P < 0.01) between the inhibition of intracellular TG levels and the suppression effects on reactive oxygen species. Nevertheless, the radical-reducing activities of flavonoids assessed by chemical assays (cyclic voltammetry and Folin-Ciocalteu reagent assay) were poorly correlated with their intracellular TG inhibitory effects. The relationships between structural properties of flavonoids and their inhibitory effects on TG over-accumulation were discussed.
