title: Inhibition of mitochondrial lipid peroxidation by Bakuchiol, a meroterpene from Psoralea corylifolia.
abstract: Bakuchiol, a meroterpene isolated from Psoralea corylifolia, prevented mitochondrial lipid peroxidation. Inhibition of oxygen consumption originating in lipid peroxidation was time-dependent. Bakuchiol protected mitochondrial respiratory enzyme activities against both NADPH-dependent and dihydroxyfumarate-induced peroxidation injury. Bakuchiol was shown to be effective to protect mitochondrial functions against oxidative stress.
