Anti-oxidative and Anti-inflammatory Activities of Three Triterpenoid Acids in Human Bronchial Epithelial BEAS-2B Cells

Shih-Ming Tsao, Mei-Chin Yin & Zhi-Hong Wang · Asian Journal of Medicine and Health · 2017

Protective effects of three triterpenoid acids, asiatic acid (AA), glycyrrhizic acid (GA) or oleanolic acid (OA), for BEAS-2B cells, human bronchial epithelial cells, against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) induced injury were examined. Cells were pre-treated with AA, GA or OA at 4 or 8...
