摘要: 14 flavonoids, including flavone and flavonol derivatives, were tested for their anticlastogenic effect against induction of micronuclei by benzo[a]pyrene in polychromatic erythrocytes mice. When each flavonoid was administered orally, together with intraperitoneally benzo[a]pyrene, most derivatives showed an effect. The data suggest that the 2,3-double bond 3,5,7-hydroxyl groups molecules may be essential to produce effects benzo[a]pyrene. Galangin, one active compounds, (-)-epicatechin, a weak one, mice order compare 3 different kinds carcinogens: ethyl methanesulfonate, 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene, adriamycin. Galangin stronger than (-)-epicatechin methanesulfonate 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene. However, there no significant adriamycin-induced both compounds. Our study indicates flavonoids are agents. Their apparently independent own clastogenic activities. Furthermore, activities do not apply universally all types genotoxic chemicals.
