2. Environmental effects:
a) due to drug metabolism.
b) due to damages caused by UV or X-rays
c) cigarette or alcohol.
Antioxidant
• The substance present in low concentrations relative to the
oxidizable substrate that significantly delays or reduces oxidation of
the substrate.
• They reduce the effect of dangerous oxidants by binding
together with these harmful molecules, decreasing their
destructive power.
• They can also help repair damage already sustained by cells.
• They may be considered as the scavengers of free radicals.

Hyperlipidemia
• Hyperlipidemia is a term that refers to high level of
lipids (fats, cholesterol and triglycerides)
circulating in the blood. These lipids can enter the
walls of arteries and increase the risk
of atherosclerosis
• Atherosclerosis is a disease process leading to
hardening and narrowing of arteries. The buildup
of fat, cholesterol, and other substances creates
plaques inside arteries, which can lead to many
problems including heart attack, stroke, and death
Aim of the study
• the aim of this study was to determine
the antioxidant activity of the two
extracts(aqueous and acetone)from
punica peels(pp) , also to investigate
the hypolipidemic effect of the
aqueous extract on experiment
animals
Materials and Methods
Material
• Plant material
The peels of punica, were collected from benghazi
area in Libya during 2017. The peels were dried in
laboratory and powder in a mixture grinder
• Animals:
eighty four healthy adult male albino mice weighing
between 20-40 g were used for this study
Taxonomy
• Kingdom: Plantae
• Phylum: Tracheophyta
• Class: Magnoliopsida
• Order: Myrtales
• Family: Punicaceae
• Genus: Punica
• Species: granata

Modern Uses
• Powerful Antioxidant
• Has strong degree of free radical scavenging,
absorbs oxygen radicals, lowers LDL levels in blood
• Shows in vitro anticancer properties

Atorvastatin
Atorvastatin is one of the yield products which considered as a standard
hypolipidemic agent.
Methods
• Sample preparation (extraction
process):
The extract was obtained by macerating 50 g of the
dried peels from punica granatum separately in
aqueoues (500 ml) and acetone (500 ml) for 3days.
The resultant extract was filtered, concentrated to
dryness in avacumme under reduced pressure at 40
°C, and then stored at -8 °C until use
Extract analysis
• Extract analysis
• HPLC-MS analysis.
• Measurement of the antioxidant activity of aqueous extract
by estimate:
-Total Phenolic Content.
-Total flavonoid content.
-Reducing Power assay.
-Scavenging Activity by DPPH-Radical
- Determination of lethal dose LD50

The prophylactic effect of
extracts against hyperlipidemia
• To study the protective effect of the
aqueous extract against
hyperlipaemia, a total of 36 mice were
used and the experiment lasted for 2
weeks. Animals were divided
randomly into three groups (12 mice
each) as follows:
Group 1: mice were fed on the standard synthetic diet
.and served as negative control group (-ve) )S.d(
