In Vitro Antioxidant Properties, DNA Damage Protective Activity, and Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitory Effect of Cajaninstilbene Acid, a Stilbene Compound Derived from Pigeon Pea [Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.] Leaves

The antioxidant properties, DNA damage protective activities, and xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitory effect of cajaninstilbene acid (CSA) derived from pigeon pea leaves were studied in the present work. Compared with resveratrol, CSA showed stronger antioxidant properties, DNA damage protective ac…
