Abstract

Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a phenolic lignan, was tested for its antigenotoxic potential against chlormadinone acetate (CMA)-induced genotoxic damage in mice bone-marrow cells. Doses of about 22.50 mg/kg body weight of CMA were given along with 1, 5 and 10 mg/kg body weight of NDGA intraperitoneally. The treatment resulted in the reduction of sister chromatid exchanges and chromosomal aberrations induced by CMA, suggesting an antigenotoxic potential of NDGA. Earlier studies show that CMA generates reactive oxygen species, responsible for genotoxic damage. The free radical-scavenging property of NDGA is responsible for the reduction of genotoxic damage induced by CMA in mice bone-marrow cells.
