Herein, we prepared standardized antioxidant-enriched fractions from red (AFR) and purple (AFP) colored potatoes and evaluated their protective effects against hepatotoxicity induced by oxidative stress. The major compound contained in both AFR and AFP was 5-caffeoylquinic acid. Experiments in vitro showed that AFR and AFP protected against HepG2 cell death induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP) as determined by cell viability assay. AFR and AFP recovered alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) enzyme activities, which increased by t-BHP treatment in HepG2 cells. AFR and AFP also inhibited the cleavage of PARP and caspase-3 in HepG2 cells. Moreover, in vivo experiments in mice showed that AFR and AFP protected against t-BHP-induced hepatotoxicity and recovered serum ALT and AST enzyme activities. AFR and AFP also rescued serum antioxidant enzyme activities, catalase and glutathione peroxidase, which were disturbed by t-BHP treatment. Our data clearly demonstrate that AFR and AFP protect against hepatic damage induced by oxidative stress.
