Application

Chlorophyllin sodium copper salt has been used to study the effect of chlorophyllin against radiation-induced hematopoietic syndrome. It has been used to study the effect of chlorophyllin on the excretion of PhIP (2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine) and its metabolites into the breast-milk of lactating rats.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Chlorophyllin is a water soluble derivative of chlorophyll. It has chemopreventive properties and forms a non-covalent complex with many mutagenic/carcinogenic molecules. The complex formation reduces absorption or allows excretion of the mutagenic/carcinogenic molecules. Chlorophyllin also exhibits antioxidant, antiapoptotic and immunostimulatory effects. It provides benefits, such as prevention of body odor and increased wound healing.

The human hepatoma 3B cell line was chosen as an experimental model for in vitro test of drug screening. The drugs included chlorophyllin and its derivatives such as fluo-chlorophyllin, sodium copper chlorophyllin, and sodium iron chlorophyllin.
