| Abstract | The hypothesis of the present study is that methanol extract of Houttuynia cordata Thunb (MEH) and its targeted bioactive components including rutin, quercitrin, and chlorogenic acid can be effective in reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by nicotine and promoting nicotine to cotinine in HepG2 cell. Oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) of bioactive components and MEH was measured to assess free radical scavenging capacity. ROS inhibition ability of bioactive components and MEH was measured by 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate assay. The conversion rate of nicotine to cotinine by bioactive components and MEH was determined by the direct barbiturate assay method. ORAC value confirmed that MEH and its bioactive components provided an antioxidant capacity ranging from 126 to 138 μMtrolox equivalents/100 g. Compared to nicotine only, pretreatment of MEH, rutin, and quercitrin was revealed to effectively inhibit ROS production in HepG2 cell by up to 9, 7.4, and 14%, respectively. Nicotine conversion to cotinine after 120 min incubation was 1.7 and 1.4 times higher in rutin and chlorogenic acid pretreatment than the control, respectively. H. cordata and its targeted bioactive components could be a valuable natural ingredient for inhibiting ROS formation by nicotine as well as enhancing the rate of nicotine to cotinine turnover. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
