The hepatoprotective action was studied also in other Phyllanthus species, as P. simplex [123] , P. atropurpureus [124] , P. acidus [125, 126] , P. fraternus [127] , P. emblica [128] , P. urinaria, and P. maderaspatensis [129, 130] , and significant antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities were found especially in P. simplex extracts because of its high phenolic content [123] . Finally, the antioxidant activity was compared between P. virgatus and P. amarus and was found that the first had higher cytotoxicity, higher free radical scavenging activity, and more inhibition of peroxidation capacity [131] .
