A phytochemical and pharmacological review on Dalbergia sissoo: A potential medicinal plant

Abstract

Dalbergia sissoo plant, often known as the Bangladesh Shishu, is a member of the Fabaceae family. It widespread in Bangladesh, including Sylhet, Ranirhat, Isamoti, and Chittagong. It is also found in Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Nepal. This plant has been used to treat leukoderma, diarrhea, dyspepsia, ulcers, stomach disorders, itching, syphilis, scabies. This plant's extract comprised terpenoids, alkaloids, glycosides, flavanols, tannins, saponins, and glycosides. All segments of Dalbergia sissoo are analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anthelmintic, antidiarrheal, molluscicidal, antinociceptive, antioxidant, antiulcer, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, osteogenic, antispermatogenic, antitemite and neuroprotective activities. The accessible information was acquired from research articles using a keyword search in Google Scholar, Pub med, Science direct, Springer Link, Wiley and Sci-Hub. The foregoing criteria selected 35 suitable articles from 2000 to 2022 for this study. This research examines Dalbergia sissoo's botanical traits, therapeutic value, and bioactive compounds. This analysis will aid future scientific research as pharmacologists must gather and identify data.

The Phenolic Content of Pistacia lentiscus Leaf Extract and Its Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Properties

“…The essential oil and extract of this plant are effective against Gram-negative bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli , as well as Gram-positive bacteria including Bacillus subtilis and Listeria monocytogenes [ 27 ]. Furthermore, various phytochemical studies have shown the considerable existence of some polyphenolic compounds such as flavonoids [ 28 ] and tannoids and also the appearance of sterols, saponins, and triterpenes [ 29 , 30 ]. Among the reasons that allowed the development of the extract of Pistacia lentiscus leaf, either as an antioxidant agent or as an inhibitor of the enzymes responsible for diabetes to act as a trophic agent on the acinar tissue, to augment the production of enzymes of the cultured islets [ 31 ], there is first of all the absence of symptoms of toxicity, and then the abundance and wild growth of this species are additional aspects that qualify for a detailed study.…”
