Antioxidant Properties of 5-ASA: Potential Mechanism for Its Anti-Inflammatory Activity by T Yamada, C Volkmer, MB Grisham

“…The authors' laboratory and others have demonstrated that 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) possesses potent antioxidant activity, including free radical scavenging properties and the ability to decompose neutrophilic oxidants (eg, hypochlorous acid) and detoxify hemoprotein-associated oxidizing agents. 5-ASA has the additional property of being able to chelate iron and render it poorly redox active. Therefore, it is proposed that much of the anti-inflammatory activity of 5-ASA may be due to its numerous antioxidant properties.…”
