Original Source: Cytotoxicity and cytoprotective effects of citrus flavonoids on insulin-secreting cells BRIN-BD11: beneficial synergic effects.
Flavonoids, in general, have potent antioxidant activity and they can be used in treating chronic diseases involving oxidative stress, such as diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity and cytoprotective effects of citrus flavonoids on the functionality of BRIN-BD11 cells. The assessment of cytotoxic and cytoprotective flavonoid tested was performed using the MTT reduction assay. The flavonoids did not show cytotoxic effects in any of the tested concentrations (5-20 µM...
