Calendula officinalis Extracts Protect against H2O2 Induced Chromosome Damage on HacaT Human Skin Cells

Calendula officinalis extracts contain antioxidant compounds. The extracts tested in the current study protect against reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced cytotoxic activity towards human cells.

Objective: To determine the ability of Calendula officinalis extracts to protect against H2O2 induced chromosome damage on HaCaT human skin cells.
Human Skin Cells

Methodology: The chromosome damage protection by four Calendula officinalis extracts was investigated in vitro using a dose-response (0.125, 0.5 and 1.0% (v/v)) on HaCaT human skin cells.
