Evaluation of antimutagenic and protective effects of Parkinsonia aculeata L. leaves against H2O2 induced damage in pBR322 DNA

Abstract: The in vitro antimutagenic and DNA protecting potential of organic (methanol, hexane, n-butanol) and aqueous extract/fractions of Parkinsonia aculeata L. (Fabaceae) was investigated by employing Ames assay and DNA nicking assay. DNA damage by hydroxyl radicals was effectively inhibited by all the extract/fractions. A marked antimutagenic effect was observed against 4-Nitro-o-phenylenediamine and sodium azide (direct acting mutagens) and 2-Aminofluorene (indirect acting mutagen) in TA98 and TA100 strains of Sal… Show more

“…The genus Parkinsonia has been studied for its biological properties. Parkinsonia aculeata has been recognized for its antioxidant, antimutagenic, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory and antitumor effects (Saha et al, 2010a;Singh et al, 2013;Al-Youssef and Hassan, 2015;Sharma et al, 2016). Chemical studies on P. aculeata showed that this plant is constituted by essential oils (Al-Youssef and Hassan, 2015), flavonoids and polyphenolic compounds (Abdelaziz et al, 2020), with pharmacological potential.…”

“…The chemical constituents from the leaf extract 9 of the title plant were orientin, iso-orientin, vitexin, 10,11 isovitexin, leucenin-II, vicenin-II, apigenin, luteolin, kaempferol, chrysoeriol, diosmotin-6-βglucoside, a new flavanone, parkintin with epoxy isopentyl moiety and permethylated 5-C-hexosylluteolin. P. aculeata was reported to possess antimicrobial, 12 antigenotoxic, 13 antidiabetic, 14,15 antioxidant, 16 antimutagenic, 17 antiinflammatory, 18 hepato-protective 19 and antitumor activities 20,21 .…”

“…Therefore, a great quantity polyphenols can be found in such marketed foods and drugs containing these fruits and herbs (Liu and Henkel, 2002). Polyphenols have been confirmed as various biological activities, including antioxidation (Mertens-Talcott et al, 2017), anti-inflammation (Oliviero et al, 2018), antibacterial (Smullen et al, 2007), and treatments of burns, mutations (Sharma et al, 2016), and cardiovascular diseases (Carluccio et al, 2003). At present, the development of foods, health products, and pharmaceuticals containing polyphenols has aroused wide concerns.…”
