Cassiaside has significant hepato-protective effects against galactosamine damage, which is higher than that of silybin from Silybum marianum.

The numbers of revertants per plate decreased significantly when this extract was added to the assay system using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and/or TA98. The MeOH extract was then sequentially partitioned with CH2Cl2, n-BuOH and H2O. The CH2Cl2 and n-BuOH fractions possessed antimutagenic activity but the H2O fraction was inactive. Neither the MeOH extract nor its fractions were capable of inhibiting the direct-acting mutagen N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine suggesting that these fractions may prevent the metabolic activation of AFB1 or scavenge the electrophilic intermediate capable of inducing mutations[1]
