Larrea Nordihydroguaiaretic acid

PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES AND CLINICAL TRIALS Alkaline phosphatase stimulation. Extract of the leaf, administered orally to adults, was active. Patients with subacute hepatic necrosis had negative workup, except for consumption of 15 tablets of the herbal extract per day for 4 months L Anthelmintic activity. Water and petroleum ether extracts of the dried oleoresin were active on Eimeria tenella in chicken - . Anti-amoebic activity. The resin of Larrea produced inhibitory activity at a concentration of 1 ppm on Entamoeba invadens PZ axenic cultures. The nordihydroguaiaretic acid activity was observed at 10" to 10" concentrations - . [Pg.265]

The lipophilic material found on the surface of Larrea species (Zygophyllaceae) is comprised of several methylated flav-onoid aglycones and lignans such as nordihydroguaiaretic acid. [Pg.317]

The major phenolic component of Larrea tridentata (chaparral, creosote bush) is a catechol lignan called nordihydroguaiaretic acid. It causes lymphatic and renal lesions when given chronically in high doses to rodents. [Pg.3732]

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) (60) is found in large quantities in Larrea divaricata (creosote bush, Zygophylla-ceae), a plant that is extremely abundant in the Chihuahuan, Sonoran, and Mojave deserts, as well as in southern South America. This compound was widely used in the food industry for several years as an antioxidant, but its use has recently been restricted. NDGA possesses light-activated toxicity (Downum, 1992). [Pg.120]

The simple lignan nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) from chaparral Larrea tridentata (Zygophyllaceae) is a potent antioxidant. [Pg.20]
