<p>A method is provided for enhancing the cytoprotective effect of polycyclic phenolic compounds on a population of cells that involves the steps of administering a combination of polycyclic phenolic compounds and anti-oxidants to achieve an enhanced effect that is greater than the use of either compound administered separately under otherwise similar conditions. An example of an anti-oxidant for use in the method is glutathione and an example of a polycyclic phenolic compound is an estrogen compound. The cytoprotective effect occurs in a variety of different cell types including neuronal cells and cells of the vascular system.</p> |
