Abstract
In this study, the methanol fraction and aglycone fraction were made from Gynura procumbens (G. procumbens) extracts and their antioxidative effects were investigated. The free radical scavenging activity (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH), total antioxidant capacity by luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay, and the protective effects against reactive oxygen species (ROS) in erythrocytes were measured to evaluate the antioxidative activities of the extracts. Free radical scavenging activities ($FSC_{50}$) of the methanol fraction and aglycone fraction were 90.25 and $81.38{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Total antioxidant capacities ($OSC_{50}$) of the methanol fraction and aglycone fraction were 16.96 and $12.30{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The free radical scavenging activity and total antioxidant capacity of the aglycone fraction were greater than those of methanol fraction. The cellular protective effect on the $^1O_2$-induced cellular damage of human erythrocytes was confirmed by ${\tau}_{50}$ value. The ${\tau}_{50}$ value of the methanol fraction and aglycone fraction were 36.7 min and 76.1 min, respectively in $5{\mu}g/mL$, and the aglycone fraction showed about 2 times higher cellular protecive effect than (+)-${\alpha}$-tocopherol (35.4 min). These results indicate that the aglycone fraction of G. procumbens extracts has application possibility as antioxidant ingredient of cosmetic.
