The protective effects of alpha-Hederin on carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicities were investigated in mice. Pretreatment with alpha-Hederin prior to the administration of carbon tetrachloride significantly prevented the increase in serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity and lipid peroxidation

Our previous studies on active constituents of Nigella sativa have indicated that cell death induced by thymoquinone and alpha-hederin was dose- and time-dependent, in a range of four cancer cell lines. Both compounds elicited necrosis and apoptosis with a higher

Hydroponically cultivated Nigella sativa L. plants treated with methyl jasmonate (MeJA) showed a twelve-fold increase in levels of the monodesmosidic triterpene saponins alpha-hederin and kalopanaxsaponin I (KsI) in the leaves. We will demonstrate that these two saponins accounted for approximately
