“…Dentro de la última década, se han descrito tres especies mexicanas (Martínez-Gordillo & Lozada-Pé-rez 2009, Henrickson et al 2011, Turner 2013c) y se han aportado notas sobre la distribución y filogenia de algunas especies en particular (González-Gallegos et al 2015). Existen algunos avances incipientes de estudios fitoquímicos y de prospección de compuestos activos (Dimayuga et al 1991, Estrada-Soto et al 2009, Sánchez-Recillas et al 2014. …”

“…Además, se registra un trabajo anatómico y etnobotánico de especies mexicanas (Santillán-Ramírez et al 2008). También se han realizado algunos estudios para comprender mejor los compuestos que subyacen a las propiedades aromáticas y curativas de sus especies (Hernández-Abreu et al 2011, Sánchez-Recillas et al 2014, FloresFlores et al 2016) y aquellos que podrían ser útiles en la conservación de granos y vegetales en almacenes (Juárez et al 2015). Este género aún no cuenta con un análisis que esclarezca sus relaciones filogenéticas.…”

ResumenAntecedentes: Lamiaceae es una de las familias con mayor riqueza de especies en México. Sin embargo, aún se carece de un estudio detallado sobre su diversidad en el país y de una revisión taxonómica global y actualizada. Como resultado, el aprovechamiento y conservación de los integrantes de esta familia es limitado. Preguntas: ¿Qué avances se han logrado en el estudio y entendimiento de la riqueza, endemismo y distribución de las Lamiaceae mexicanas? ¿Qué estrategias deben ejecutarse para consolidar el conocimiento de la familia en el país? Taxon: Lamiaceae Sitio de estudio: México Métodos: Se hizo una revisión exhaustiva de las Lamiaceae mexicanas en la literatura, bases de datos y herbarios. Se sintetizó el estado de su conocimiento. Se aplicaron análisis cuantitativos para evaluar su riqueza, endemismo y distribución geográfica. Resultados: México cuenta con 33 géneros y 598 especies, de las cuales el 66.2 % son endémicas. El género más diverso es Salvia, con 306 especies. El estado más diverso es Oaxaca, mientras que Jalisco alberga el mayor número de especies endémicas. Conclusiones: En México, Lamiaceae es la octava familia más diversa y el número de sus especies representa el 5.5 % de la familia a nivel mundial, por lo que el país puede considerarse uno de los centros de diversificación más importante. Debido a lo anterior, y al endemismo elevado que presenta, México es crucial para la conservación in situ de la familia. Si bien se ha logrado un avance considerable de su conocimiento y en la actualidad hay un repunte en su estudio, es necesario diversificar los campos de investigación. Palabras clave: distribución geográfica, endemismo, Lamiaceae mexicanas, riqueza florística. AbstractBackground: Lamiaceae is one of the most species-rich families in Mexico. However, a detailed treatment on its diversity and an updated comprehensive taxonomic review for the country are still lacking. As a result, the use and conservation of the members of Lamiaceae is limited. Questions: Which advances have been achieved on the study and understanding of the Mexican Lamiaceae in terms of richness, endemism and distribution? Which strategies should be applied to enhance the knowledge of Lamiaceae in Mexico? Taxon: Lamiaceae Study site: Mexico Methods: A thorough review of Mexican Lamiaceae in the literature, databases and herbaria was conducted. The state of knowledge of the family was summarized. Quantitative analyses were performed to assess its richness, endemism and geographical distribution. Results: Mexico embraces 33 genera and 598 species of Lamiaceae, with an endemism proportion of 66.2 %. The most diverse genus is Salvia, with 306 species. Oaxaca is the state encompassing the highest richness, whereas Jalisco harbors the highest amount of endemic species. Conclusions: In Mexico Lamiaceae is the eighth most species-rich family, with a number of species equivalent to 5.5 % of all Lamiaceae worldwide; hence the country is one of the most relevant diversification centers for the family. The high species richne...

“…However, the full recovery of maximal Ca 2þ -induced contractions with high concentrations of calcium ( Figure 3) makes it unlike that AMEO interfere directly with the contractile proteins. Therefore, the mechanism of this effect might be a blockade of cytoplasmic membrane Ca 2þ channels, inhibiting the Ca 2þ inflow (Coelho- de-Souza et al 1997). S anchez-Recillas et al (2014 reported the relaxant effect of hexane, dichloromethane and methanol crude extracts of A. mexicana, using the rat tracheal rings as model of study.…”

“…Methyl chavicol, linalool and D-limonene have been reported as major components of its essential oil (Estrada-Reyes et al 2004). In spite of the wide use of this medicinal plant as traditional remedy for respiratory diseases, including asthma, only one study of relaxant effect of crude organic extracts has been reported in rat trachea (S anchez-Recillas et al 2014). The present study was undertaken to investigate the relaxant effect of essential oil of A. mexicana, using the guinea pig isolated trachea rings as experimental model.…”

“…Results showed that the mortality of larvae was dose-dependent and increasing concentrations of the essential oil exacerbate mortality. Probit analysis showed that LC50 and LC 90 values were calculated as 8.022% and 80.152%, respectively (Ebadollahi et al, 2013). Lopez et al (cited by Ebadollahi et al, 2013) reported estragole as an example of toxic compounds that are active against insect pests.…”

Overview Regarding the Bioactivity of Agastache foeniculum and Nepeta cataria species

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In this study, we summarize the recent advances on chemical composition and bioactivity of giant hyssop (Agastache foeniculum (Pursh) Kuntze) and catnip (Nepeta cataria L.). Extracts from giant hyssop and catnip have a significant bioactivity, antibacterial and antioxidant activity (Suschke et al., 2007; Zielińska and Matkowski, 2014; Mihaylova et al., 2013). This literature review wants to emphasize the value of these two plants and the opportunity of using them to obtain bioactive extracts with applicability in beekeeping for different pest control. Different parts of the mentioned plants were used for the determination of active principles from macerates and essential oils. Spectrophotometric methods as well as high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography are generally used for determination of bioactive principles from the classes of polyphenols, flavonoids, carotenoids and aromatic acids. Remarkable results have been obtained using the essential oil from Agastache foeniculum as an insecticide for the control of pests like the Red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum Herbst), Lesser grain borer (Rhyzopertha dominica F.), Mediterranean flour moth (Ephestia kuehniella) and t h e Indian meal moth (Plodia interpunctella) from the grain and food warehouses (Ebadollahi, 2011). The anti-microbial activity of catnip (Nepeta cataria) was proven in over five bacterial strains: Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtillis (Bandh et al., 2011). Considering the results obtained and reported in the literature on the control of various pests and diseases, we consider appropriate to extend the research in the field of beekeeping as well, for a natural treatment of different bacterial diseases and pests.

Tracheal relaxation of five medicinal plants used in Mexico for the treatment of several diseases

Abstract: Less polar extracts obtained from A. mexicana, T. mexicana and C. vitifolium exhibited greater relaxant effect on tracheal rat rings, which allows us to suggest them as sources for the isolation of bioactive molecules with potential therapeutic value in the treatment of asthma.
