INVESTIGATION ON ANTIOXIDANT EFFECTS OF THE GREEN COFFEE BEAN EXTRACT IN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To investigate antioxidant effects of the green coffee bean extract (GCBE) in mice. Methods: 60 mice were injected by D-galactose in 4 weeks to induced oxidative stress. After then, they were treated by saline, GCBE at doses 200mg/kg, 300mg/kg and 400mg/kg or vitamin E for next 4 weeks. Liver concentrations of MDA (Malondialdehyde), SOD (Superoxide dismutase) and GSH-Px (Glutathione peroxidase) were measured. Results: Liver concentrations of GSH-Px in mice treated by GCBE at doses 300mg/kg and 400mg/kg were significantly higher than these in the control group (p<0,05). There were no significant differences in liver concentrations of MDA and SOD between groups (p>0,05). Conclusion: The present study presented new evidence of antioxidant effects of GCBE at doses 300mg/kg and 400mg/kg in mice.
