Abstract
The effect of 11 kinds of natural pigments derived from beet, berry, beta-carotene, chlorophyll, corn, gardenia blue, monascus, onion, paprika, red cabbage and safflower yellow on the killing effect of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation toward a human histiocytic lymphoma (U-937), a U-937-derived macrophage (U-M) and a human promyelocytic leukemia (HL-60) cell line was examined. U-937 cells were more insensitive to UV irradiation than U-M and HL-60 cells. Among the pigments, only onion pigment increased the viability of the UV-irradiated cells, indicating that onion pigment had the ability to inhibit the killing effect of UV toward U-937, U-M and HL-60 cells. The inhibiting activity of onion pigment was observed in the water-soluble fraction, but not in the methanol-soluble fraction. Quercetin, a main component of onion pigment, was not effective toward inhibiting the killing effect of UV irradiation on U-937 cells.
