Antioxidant activity of phenylethanoid glycosides from Brandisia hancei.
Brandisia hancei is a medicinal herb in China. The ethanol extract of this plant and four phenylethanoid glycosides, acteoside (1), 2'-acetylacteoside (2), poliumoside (3) and brandioside (4), isolated from it were shown to have inhibitory effects on free radical-induced hemolysis of red blood cells and free radical scavenging activities in vitro. Brandioside (4) and poliumoside (3) showed stronger antioxidant effect than acteoside (1), 2'-acetylacteoside (2) and trolox.
