“…Considering the relations of structure and antiradical activity, three groups of flavonoids may deserve attention, i) luteolin-7-O-glycosides like lonicerin and cynaroside, ii) eriodyctiol derivatives (eriocitrin) and iii) derivatives of quercetin, among which rutin is as frequently reported from M. longifolia samples as cynaroside. Rutin content was found to be in significant correlation with the FRAP activity of M. longifolia (Patonay et al 2017). Park et al (2019) also observed strong antioxidant activity to their rutin-dominated M. longifolia sample.…”

“…Petersen and Simmonds (2003) summarize RA as adstringent, AO, antiviral, antimutagen and antiinflammatory agent. Investigations on M. longifolia phenolics have predominantly been focusing on RA as a potent AO (Dudai et al 2006;Fialová et al 2008;Krzyzanowska et al 2011;Patonay et al 2017) antiinflammatory (Shen et al 2011) and anticholinesterase (Vladimir-Knežević et al 2014) molecule. The available quantitative data dealing with RA content of M. longifolia is summarized in Table 2.…”

“…The concentration ranges are variable, like in the case of rutin: 0.822 mg/100 g dp (Benedec et al 2013) or 11 66 mg/100 g dp (Park et al 2019). Flavonol-rich samples were reported from Serbia (Stanislavljević et al 2012), Hungary (Patonay et al 2017) and Korea (Park et al 2019). Interestingly, Stanislavljević et al (2012) reported astragalin to be the dominant flavonol constituent of a M. longifolia charge (61.36 mg/g extract calculated with yield: 7118 mg/kg dp).…”

Horsemint as a potential raw material for the food industry: survey on the chemistry of a less studied mint species

Horsemint (Mentha longifolia L), is wild-growing species, widespread in Eurasia and Africa. The review focuses on its potential utilization as a preservative and flavoring in the food industry based on the polyphenolic and terpenoid composition. Several phenolic antioxidants were detected in horsemint, among which rosmarinic acid may have a key role. Nineteen other acids, and fifty-five flavonoids (six which are de novo) were also identified. The antiradical efficacy in horsemint extract has not yet been adequately justified. Similarly, systematic screening of the flavonoid composition of the species is lacking. Horsemint essential oils possesses an outstandingly wide variability in composition which may serve as basis of special flavoring or antimicrobial agents. The efficacy of horsemint volatiles have been demonstrated against more than twenty microbes. As current literature of horsemint lacks comparable results, the present review provides the broadest and therefore, a critical overview, on its most important secondary compounds and the factors influencing their accumulation.

“…The vasodilatory effect was mediated through a combination of Ca +2 channel blockade (concentrated in a non-polar fraction) and endothelium-dependent pathway linked to vascular muscarinic receptors (concentrated in a polar fraction) [78]. The role of antioxidant effect of phenolics and total flavonoids contents was also reported [79,80].…”

Antihypertensive Indigenous Lebanese Plants: Ethnopharmacology and a Clinical Trial

et al. 2019

Hypertension is highly prevalent among the Lebanese adult population and is indeed the major cause of mortality in Lebanon. Traditional use of antihypertensive medicinal plants has long been practiced. The aim of this study is to document this traditional knowledge and clinically test the antihypertensive capacity of three of the most commonly used wild plant species Mentha longifolia, Viola odorata and Urtica dioica. Ethno-pharmacological data was collected by personal interviews with herbalists and traditional healers using a semi structured survey questionnaire and assessing relative frequency of citation (RFC). The clinical study was conducted by a randomized, blind, placebo-controlled trial in 29 subjects with mild hypertension distributed in four groups, three plant extract treatments and one placebo. Systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressures (DBP) as well as mean arterial blood pressures (MAP) were monitored at weeks 4, 8, 12 and 16 during the treatment with 300 mL/day of plant extract. Results showed that M. longifolia, U. dioica and V. odorata exhibited the highest values of RCF (0.95) followed by Allium ampeloprasum (0.94), Apium graveolens (0.92) and Crataegus azarolus (0.90). The clinical trial revealed dose- and duration-dependent significant reductions in SBP, DBP and MAP of subjects treated with M. longifolia, U. dioica or V. odorata. Our findings indicate that extracts of these plants present an effective, safe and promising potential as a phyto-therapuetical approach for the treatment of mild hypertension. More research on the phytochemistry, pharmacological effects and the underlying mechanisms is necessary.

(1) Background: The COVID–19 pandemic and the imposition of strict but necessary measures to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus have been, and still are, major stress factors for adults, children, and adolescents. Stress harms human health as it creates free radicals in the human body. According to various recent studies, volatile oils from various aromatic plants have a high content of antioxidants and antimicrobial compounds. An external supply of antioxidants is required to destroy these free radicals. The main purpose of this paper is to create a yoghurt with high antioxidant capacity, using only raw materials from Romania; (2) Methods: The bioactive components used to enrich the cow milk yoghurt were extracted as volatile oils out of four aromatic plants: basil, mint, lavender and fennel. Initially, the compounds were extracted to determine the antioxidant capacity, and subsequently, the antioxidant activity of the yoghurt was determined. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhy-drazyl (DPPH) method was used to determine the antioxidant activity; (3) Results: The results show that cow milk yoghurt enhanced with volatile oils of basil, lavender, mint and fennel, encapsulated in sodium alginate has an antioxidant and antimicrobial effect as a staple food with multiple effects in increasing the body’s immunity. The antioxidant activity proved to be considerably higher than the control sample. The highest antioxidant activity was obtained on the first day of the analysis, decreasing onwards to measurements taken on days 10 and 20. The cow milk yoghurt enriched with volatile basil oil obtained the best results; (4) Conclusions: The paper shows that yoghurts with a high antioxidant capacity were obtained, using only raw materials from Romania. A healthy diet, compliance with safety conditions and finding appropriate and safe methods to increase the body’s immunity is a good alternative to a major transition through harder times, such as pandemics. The creation of food products that include natural antioxidant compounds combines both the current great possibility of developing food production in Romania and the prevention and reduction of the effects caused by pandemic stress in the human body.
