Enzyme inhibitory and antioxidant activities and HPLC quantification of chlorogenic acid in Helichrysum stoechas (L.) Moench and H. stoechas subsp. barrelieri (Ten) Nyman
Abstract:The inhibitory effects of ethanol (80%) and aqueous extracts of Helichrysum stoechas (L.) Moench and H. stoechas subsp. barrelieri (Ten) Nyman on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), two sister enzymes associated with pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as on elastase and collagenase, linked to inflammation and skin aging, were investigated. Simultaneously, antioxidant activity of the extracts was assessed through DPPH radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxid… Show more
