Many epidemiological studies have revealed that there is a strong correlation between consumption of polyphenol-rich foods or beverages and the prevention of certain diseases such as cancers, cardiovascular diseases and aging. Phenolic compounds are abundant in all plants, therefore they form an integral part of the human diet. Salvia species, commonly known as sage, have been used since ancient times for more than 60 different ailments ranging from aches to epilepsy. There are around 900 species of Salvia, 95 of which are represented in Turkey including Salvia fruticosa. In this study, DPPH● and ABTS● radicals scavenging activities, total phenolic and flavanoid contents of water extract of S. fruticosa was determined by spectrophotometrically. Rosmaniric acid, caffeic acid, gallic acid, syringic acid, quercetin and t-resveratrol contents of water extract of S. fruticosa were determined by using RP-HPLC. Cytotoxic effect of the extract on HT-29 adenocarcinoma cell lines was examined via XTT colorimetric and Trypan Dye Exclusion cell viability assay. Effects of the extract on the expression of phase I and phase II detoxcification enzymes in HT-29 cell line were investigated with q-RT-PCR technique. Turkish endemic sage, S. fruticosa, is reported to be a promising medicinal plant, it has the potential to be used as adjuvant with chemoterapeutic agents to overcome the drug resistance occuring during chemotherapy. Further investigations are ungoing to reveal its bioactive components and their beneficial activities in biological systems.

Accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) at high levels in cells as a result of normal cellular activities as well as exposure to oxidative stress is attributed to many chronic degenerative diseases and conditions in humans including cardiovascular diseases, cancer and aging-related conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. Although living organisms are equipped with enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant defense systems to counteract the adverse effects of oxidative stress, yet they rely on exogenous s...
Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of dietary plants against group A B-Haemolytic streptococci
Gerdan, Ömer Faruk; Çoruh, Nursen; Department of Biochemistry (2009)
Fresh produces, fruit juices and herbal teas used in our regular diet may have importance in the protective treatment of some infectious diseases. In this study, dietary produces were investigated for their antioxidant activities and antimicrobial activities against group A ß-haemolytic streptoccoci. Streptococcus pyogenes, a member of the group A ß-haemolytic streptococci, is a very dangerous pathogen, which may cause diseases such as tonsillopharyngitis, meningitis, rheumatic arthritis. Fruits and vegetab...
Antioxidant properties of Prangos ferulacea (L.) Lindl., Chaerophyllum macropodum Boiss. and Heracleum persicum Desf. from Apiaceae family used as food in Eastern Anatolia and their inhibitory effects on glutathione-S-transferase
Çoruh, Nursen; Ozgokce, F. (2007-01-01)
Therapeutic effects of several medicinal plants and vegetables, which are commonly used as food and in folk medicine against many disease, are well known. Antioxidant capacities of Heracleum persicum Desf., Prangos ferulacea (L.) Lindl., Chaerophyllum macropodum Boiss. species from Apiaceae family were evaluated by determining their effects on DPPH radical scavenging, and lipid peroxidation inhibition, as well as their total phenolic contents. Potential natural glutathione-S-transferase inhibitors have gain...
Screening for antioxidant activities of several medicinal plant extracts and their effects on glutathione-s-transferase activity

The consumption of fresh fruits, vegetables, and medicinal plants are known to be associated with a long life span and low incidence of oxidative stress related diseases such as Alzheimer̕s, Parkinson̕s, cancer, aging and cardiovascular diseases. Fitotherapeutic effects of medicinal plants is virtually attributable to their phenolic compounds with low cytotoxicity. In this study, plants used in Anatolian folk medicine for their effects such as antiinflammatory, antiulcer, antipyretic, fertility, analgesic a...
Phenolic compounds, carotenoids, and antioxidant capacities of a thermo-tolerant Scenedesmus sp. (Chlorophyta) extracted with different solvents
Bulut, Onur; Akin, Dilan; Sonmez, Cagla; Oktem, Aysegul; Yucel, Meral; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-06-01)
The human body can fight against the adverse effects of chronic exposure to environmental pollutants and stress by consumption of a diet rich in antioxidants. Although fruits and vegetables are the predominant sources, alternative sources of antioxidants such as microalgae are also being explored. Here, we investigate the antioxidant capacity, total phenolic, flavonoid, and carotenoid contents of novel thermo-resistant green microalga Scenedesmus sp. ME02. This strain has previously been shown to have a hig...
