Inhibitory Effect of Three C-glycosylflavonoids from Cymbopogon citratus (Lemongrass) on Human Low Density Lipoprotein Oxidation

This study assessed the inhibitory effect of three C-glycosylflavonoids from Cymbopogon citratus leaves - isoorientin (1), swertiajaponin (2) and isoorientin 2"-Orhamnoside (3) - on human LDL oxidation. Isolated LDL was incubated with compounds 1-3 and the kinetics of lipid peroxidation were as...
