✦ Synopsis

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are vulnerable to peroxidative attack. Protecting PUFA from peroxidation is essential to utilize their beneficial effects in health and in preventing disease. The antioxidants vitamin E, t-butylhydroxy toluene (BHT) and t-butylhydroxy anisole (BHA) inhibited ascorbate/Fe(2+)-induced lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes. In addition, a number of spice principles, for example, curcumin (5-50 microM) from turmeric, eugenol (25-150 microM) from cloves and capsaicin (25-150 microM) from red chillies inhibited lipid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner. Zingerone from ginger inhibited lipid peroxidation at high concentrations (greater than 150 microM) whereas linalool (coriander), piperine (black pepper) and cuminaldehyde (cumin) had only marginal inhibitory effects even at high concentrations (600 microM). The inhibition of lipid peroxidation by curcumin and eugenol was reversed by adding high concentrations of Fe2+.

Dandelions have long been used in herbal medicine for their choleretic, diuretic, antiinflammatory, appetite-stimulating and laxative properties. An antioxidant property can be supposed as a basis of their therapeutic effects. To understand the mechanism of the drug's action, the effects of natural

The effect of endogenous glycogen on lipid peroxidation was examined in hepatic microsomes from rats. Microsomes were prepared to retain endogenous hepatic glycogen (P,') or to minimize it (P,-). The indices of lipid peroxidation examined included the rate of NADPH-dependent formation of malondialde

## Abstract The dithiocarbamates (DTCs) disulfiram, thiram, diethyldithiocarbamate and dimethyldithiocarbamate on the equimolar base inhibited to the same extent both the lipid peroxidation (LPO) induced by ascorbic acid (non‐enzymatic) and that stimulated by an NADPH‐regenerating system with CCl~4
