Differential effect of silybin on the Fe2+-ADP and t-butyl hydroperoxide-induced microsomal lipid peroxidation

A Valenzuela et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

We have observed a differential effect of silybin dihemisuccinate on rat liver microsomal oxygen consumption and on lipid peroxidation induced by NADPH-Fe2+-ADP and t-butyl hydroperoxide. These results are ascribed to the antioxidant properties of the flavonoid. The differences observed in the effect of the catalysts may be a consequence of the different capacity of silybin to act as a scavenger of free radicals formed by NADPH-Fe2+-ADP or t-butyl hydroperoxide.
