The polysaccharides obtained from Psidium gajava leaves (PS-PGL) was composed with 66.71% of sulfated polysaccharide contents containing 18.58% of sulfate content.
PS-PGL possessed a protective effect against hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress in Vero cells.
PS-PGL inhibited hydrogen peroxide-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, lipid peroxidation, and cell death in zebrafish model.
