Phycocyanobilin (100 μM; 0-250 min) 抑制亚油酸甲酯的过氧化，并产生较长的诱导期[1]。 Phycocyanobilin (1 mM; 0-300 min) 抑制脂质体的氧化[1]。

[In Vivo]

Phycocyanobilin (15 mg/kg; p.o.; in diet for 2 weeks) 在 2 型糖尿病小鼠中显示抗氧化作用[3]。 Animal Model: Male C57BL/Ks J db/db mice, a rodent model for type 2 diabetes[3] Dosage: 15 mg/kg Administration: In diet for 2 weeks Result: Significantly decreased blood glucose levels. Normalized the increases in urinary 8-OHdG and 8-epi-PGF2α levels, renal oxidative stress markers evaluated by renal 8-OHdG staining and DHE staining, Nox4 mRNA, and protein expression, as well as the mRNA levels of other NAD(P)H oxidase components, inflammatory markers and HO-1.
