Several bioactivity assays, including antifungal tests, antioxidant evaluation, anti-inflammation activity, and cytotoxicity were preformed in this study.The results showed no significant antifungal activity by Lauraceae extracts. Neolitsea parvigemma (Hay.) Kanehira et Sasaki expresses the best antioxidant activity (IC50 = 5.73 μg/mL) in the DPPH assay.The extracts of Litsea akoensis Hay. and Cryptocarya concinna Hance had significant anti-inflammation activity, and they can inhibit the nitric oxide (NO) production in the LPS-induced microphage assay at the dose of 25 μg/mL. According to the cytotoxicity assay, Lindera aggregate (Sims) Kosterm and Cryptocarya concinna Hance extracts showed in vitro cytotoxicity against human umbilical vein endothelial cell line (HUVEC) with IC50 values of 43.15 μg/mL and 49.36 μg/mL, respectively, and Phoebe formosana (Matsum. et Hay.) Hay. extract exhibited marked cytotoxicity (IC50 = 42.87 μg/mL) against a human leukemia cell line (HL-60). Results from this preliminary investigation suggest that these Lauraceae tree species may have a great potential for further development as cancer chemoprevention agents or food supplements for promoting human health. ?2007 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc. |
