“…Anacardiaceae P. chinensis ssp is a tree that found in the Himalayas at an altitude of 352-400 m. Galls occurred in the leaves of this plant, have aromatic and medicinal properties; they are used to treat several health problems as diarrhea, asthma, cough, fever, nose bleeding, vomiting, loss of appetite, scorpion stings. Also, it is used with honey to cure liver diseases [49]. It was noted that they had an antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic and immune modulator effects [49][50][51].…”

“…The histological examination of the liver mice indicated that the treatment with the oil at 0.1 and 0.2 mL/kg was effective as Silymarin. GC/MS analysis indicated that α-pinene, β-pinene, γ-terpinene, terpinene-4-ol, α-terpineol, Δ 3 -carene and limonene are the major constituents of P. chinensis ssp oils [49]. α-Pinene, camphene, β-pinene, sabinene, Δ…”

Objectives: Several toxins and molecules are able to damage the liver, causing the hepato-toxicity. This disorder can be protected naturally, by some essential oils obtained from different plants. In this review we are cited some of these compounds that have been tested by their hepatoprotective effect. Methods: We reviewed 83 articles published between 1981 and 2018 in English via three databases Sciencedirect, Springer and PubMed. So, we have used the keywords: Hepatoprotective effect, liver disease, plants and essential oils. Results and conclusion: In this work, we classified the plants; contain the essential oils, in alphabetical order as a table containing the scientific, family names, information plants, the experimental assay and the results obtained from the hepatoprotective studies. We have described 27 species belonging to 12 families: Lamiaceae (7 species), Asteraceae (6 species), Umbellifereae (3 species), Apiaceae (3 species) are the main families which enclose the species that was studied. The study also includes the major compounds isolated from some of these essential oils. The most of those compounds belong to terpene class essentially cineol, carvacrol and thymol. Thus, the different essential oils that have been cited in this review were shown that have an antioxidant activity.

“…Over the years and in different populations, galls have been used in several fields mainly in traditional medicine. In India, galls are used as a remedy in the treatment of coughs, phthisis, asthma, diarrhea, dysentery, fever, vomiting, loss of appetite, nose bleeding, snake bites, scorpion stings or as a tonic, and expectorant (Rajopadhye et al., 2016). They are also used in combination with other herbs as a drinking remedy by women after childbirth to restore the elasticity of the uterine wall in Malaysia.…”

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of harvest period, growing region, and shapes of P. atlantica galls on the chemical composition, as well as on the antioxidant activities and ability to inhibit the carbohydrate hydrolyzing enzymes. Thus, the fatty acid composition; the determination of total sterols and tocopherols; the quantitative analysis of phenolic compounds; the antioxidant activities (DPPH • , FRAP, and ABTS •+) and the α-amylase inhibitory activity were carried out. Two shapes (spherical and semi-circular) of galls collected at different harvest periods were used in this work. The result revealed that all the methanolic, lipid extracts, and unsaponifiable fractions showed antioxidant and α-amylase inhibitory activities. Notably, the methanolic extracts from spherical galls has a higher antioxidant activity than those from semi-circular galls. Whereas, in lipid extracts, the observation is reversed. A higher α-amylase inhibitory activity for semi-circular galls was recorded in August and in September for spherical galls. Practical applications Galls are used in traditional medicine. Results from the present study suggest that galls are a good source of natural antioxidants and potential alternatives to control postprandial hyperglycemia. They can be useful for developing nutraceuticals, functional foods, and additives in food processing for health. This is the first report of α-amylase inhibitory activity for methanolic and lipid extracts from P. atlantica galls. How to cite this article: Hefied F, Ben Ahmed Z, Yousfi M.
