Abstract

Polyphenolic antioxidants exhibited a dose‐dependent toxicity against human promyelocytic leukemia cells (HL‐60). Their action was accompanied by malondialdehyde formation, and was partly prevented by desferrioxamine and the antioxidant N,N′‐diphenyl‐p‐phenylene diamine. This points to a prooxidant character of their cytotoxicity. A quantitative structure‐activity relationship (QSAR) has been obtained to describe the cytotoxicity of 13 polyphenolic antioxidants belonging to three different groups (flavonoids, derivatives of gallic and caffeic acid): log cL 50 (μM)=(2.7829±0.2339)+(1.2734±0.4715) E p/2 (V)−(0.3438±0.0582) log P (r 2=0.8129), where cL 50 represents the concentration for 50% cell survival, E p/2 represents the voltammetric midpoint potential, and P represents the octanol/water partition coefficient. Analogous QSARs were obtained using enthalpies of single‐electron oxidation of these compounds, obtained by quantum‐mechanical calculations. These findings clearly point to two important characteristics determining polyphenol cytotoxicity, namely their ease of oxidation and their lipophilicity.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
