Abstract
We report an inhibition of superoxide anions, balancing partial dismutation of superoxide anions and independent inhibition of H2O2 by 1,8-cineole. These results suggest a non-specific combined, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mode of action of 1,8-cineole as bifunctional drug for further clinical evaluation in mild to severe COPD and as adjunctive therapy to control disease progression.
