In conclusion, ethanolic extract from TJP showed a protective
effect against t-BHP-induced oxidative damage by the increasing
cell viability and reducing cellular ROS in Chang cells. TJP ethanolic
extract also possesses promising protection against t-BHP-induced
loss of membrane potential. Further studies are ongoing for the
isolation and identification of individual phytoconstituents responsible
for the biological activity of T. japonica pericarp and also
in vivo studies are needed for better understanding of their mechanism
of action.
