Around the course of the past few decades, essential oils have been an increasingly prominent subject of research all over the world. These naturally occurring chemicals may find applications in a wide variety of medical and biotechnological fields. In light of the urgent need to find new anti-ulcer agents and the significant amount of effort that has been put into developing medications for the treatment of ulcers, the purpose of this review is to investigate the anti-ulcer activities of fifteen different bioactive compounds that can be found in essential oils.
The treatment of skin ageing is vital in controlling numerous skin problems, especially in the elderly, which is a welcome side effect. Consumer demand for non-invasive products with fewer harmful effects than those currently on the market has led to a rapid surge in the development of new dermocosmetics. Herbal-derived formulations and natural compounds from plants have gained popularity because to the wide range of effective, non-toxic active ingredients they contain, many of which target different parts of the skin's ageing signalling pathways. The purpose of this review was, therefore, to identify the most current developments in the study of herbal-derived products, such as herbal formulations and isolated components with skin anti-aging effects. Clinical trials with available pharmacodynamics data support the protective effects of herbal-derived products used to treat, prevent, or control the ageing of human skin, and these investigations assessed the biological effects of these products in in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo settings.
Euphorbia milii Des Moul is a Madagascar-native deciduous shrub that is frequently planted for decorative purposes. Allied with family Euphorbiaceae. It is frequently referred to as a "Christ-plant" in English and "Kontok Mukut" in local language. It has been widely used as folk medicine from ancient times. Historically, the plant has been utilised as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antispasmodic, anticancer, and antitussive agent, as well as a parasite and wart treatment. The major chemical elements identified in Euphorbia milii Des Moul are flavonoids, triterpenes, β-sitosterol, lupeol, cycloartenol, β-amyrin acetate and euphol. This study summarises the last two decades worth of scientific articles and books on this plant, highlighting its pharmacological action and health advantages against a variety of disorders.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
