<i>Ex vivo</i>antioxidant effects of D-004, a lipid extract from<i>Roystonea regia</i>fruits, on rat prostate tissue

Abstract

Oral treatment with D-004 reduced MDA and carbonyl groups dose-dependently and markedly in normal and T-injected rats. These findings show that D-004 given at doses effective to prevent prostate hyperplasia also produces antioxidant effects in the prostate tissue.
