Possible Interaction: Antioxidants and Ginkgo Biloba Whole

“ EGb and its terpenoids can antagonize such stimulatory effect via antioxidation and attenuation of NF-κB activation.”

“ Ginkgo biloba extract (GBE), well-known as an efficient drug against diseases induced by free radicals, has been suggested to exert its effect by antioxidant action.”

“… GBE50 markedly significantly reduced heart rate, S-T height, myocardium MPO activity and blood IL-8, TNF-a, IL-1β …, blood AST, LDH, and CK activities, enhanced myocardium Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase activities and antioxidant enzyme activities in IR group (…) compared to IR group (III).”

“Similarly, natural antioxidants curcumin and ginkgo extract have modest but positive effects in slowing AD development.”

“Body weight gain, ATTR of EE, activities of trypsin in pancreas and amylase in jejunum, total superoxide dismutase activity in duodenum, T-AOC level and concentrations of MDA in the jejunum and ileum showed a quadratic (P < 0.05) dose response as supplemental FGBL level increased.”

“Diets supplemented with FGBL increased (P < 0.05) antioxidant and digestive enzyme activities, and decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations at different degrees in pancreas and small intestine.”

“In conclusion, the addition of FGBL had the potential to improve nutrient utilisation, intestinal digestive function and antioxidant activity of broilers.”

“On the contrary, a significant increase in the reduced glutathione, GSH/GSSG ratio as well as in the activities of antioxidant enzymes was observed with GBE administration.”

“… GBE … antioxidant genes (CAT, GPx and GR), immune-related genes (MHC2 and TLR3) and anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10 and TGF-β1), while dietary supplementation with …-1 diets down-regulated apoptosis-related genes (p53, caspase-9, caspase-8 and caspase-3) expression in the head kidney of hybrid grouper.”

“In conclusion, FGBL had the potential to improve the growth performance, meat quality and antioxidant status of broiler chickens.”

“It could be concluded that the protective effect of Ginkgo biloba may be attributed to its antioxidant properties.”

“We conclude that Ginkgo leaf parenteral solution confers protection against oxidative injuries in OM rats by increasing activities of antioxidants and immunity, suggesting a potential drug for the prevention and therapy of OM.”
