Extracts of Ginkgo biloba leaves (GBE) have been used for centuries in traditional oriental medicine to treat a very wide range of ailments. These extracts contain flavone glycosides, terpene trilactones (ginkgolides and bilobalide), ginkgolic acids, proanthocyanides and other uncharacterized compounds. The flavone glycosides and terpene trilactones fractions are believed to be responsible for the pharmacological properties of GBE, which are very popular, making it as one of the best-selling herbal medications worldwide. In this work we investigated the DNA protective effect of GBE in the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Typical experiments involved incubation of yeast cells with GBE before and during oxidative shock by hydrogen per...
