Camel Grass Phenolic Compounds: Targeting Inflammation and Neurologically Related Conditions.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The use of plants for therapeutic purposes has been supported by growing scientific evidence.

Methods

This work consisted of (i) characterizing the phenolic compounds present in both aqueous and hydroethanol (1:1, v/v) extracts of camel grass, by hyphenated liquid chromatographic techniques, (ii) evaluating their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neuromodulation potential, through in vitro cell and cell-free models, and (iii) establishing a relationship between the chemical profiles of the extracts and their biological activities.

Results

Several caffeic acid and flavonoid derivatives were determined in both extracts. The extracts displayed scavenging capacity against the physiologically relevant nitric oxide (^•NO) and supe
