摘要

An extract of Lippia odoratae (including a fraction or lyophilisate) or active component(s) of the extract is used for the inhibition of angiogenesis (including angiogenesis caused by inflammation) and for chemoprevention. (Note: The description refers exclusively to Lippia citriodora ). An extract of Lippia odoratae (including a fraction or lyophilisate) or active component(s) of the extract is used for the inhibition of angiogenesis (including angiogenesis caused by inflammation) and for chemoprevention. (Note: The description refers exclusively to Lippia citriodora ). The active components are an acetoside or isoacetoside. The extract can be adjusted with respect to phenylethanoids (e.g. acetoside and/or isoacetoside) and/or flavonoids or antioxidative properties (e.g. trolox equivalents)
