Chemical Constituents of Helvella bachu Ethanol Extract: Antioxidant and Anticancer Activities.

These compounds are common in several organisms; however, this is the first report that describes them as components of I H. bachu. i The antioxidant activity [[14]] of HBE was detected by ABTS (Fig. In this study, the chemical components of the ethanol extract of I H. bachu i (HBE) were analyzed, and their antioxidant and anticancer activities were evaluated I in vitro i . Among all the cells, the inhibitory effect on HCT116 cells was the most pronounced, reaching 69% with 0.8 mg/mL HBE, whereas the inhibition rate on BGC was the lowest (40%), and on other cancer cells (HepG2 and RAW264.7) it was nearly 50%. Eleven compounds were obtained, and all these compounds were first isolated from I Helvella bachu i . [Extracted from the article]
