Abstract

AbstractBackground:andMethods:The effects of the extracts on important enzymes (PDE-5 and arginase) linked with ED and pro-oxidants (FeResults:The results showed that both extracts inhibited PDE-5 and arginase activities in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibitory property ofConclusions:The ability of the extracts to inhibit PDE-5, arginase and pro-oxidant induced lipid peroxidation, and chelate metal might suggest their folkloric use for the management of ED.
