“…The methanolic extracts show greater antifungal effective over aqueous and ethanolic extracts, due to the higher preservation of the tannins, flavonoids and terpenoid compounds in the extracts. In this systematic review, tannins were found to be present and showed antifungal ac-tivity in 11 herbal extracts [18,31,47,75,95,104,109,113,128,136,140].…”

Background: In the era of antimicrobial resistance, fungal pathogens are not an exception. Several strategies, including antimicrobial stewardship programs and high throughput screening of new drugs are being implemented. Several recent studies have demonstrated effectiveness of plant compounds with antifungal activity. Objective: In this systematic review we examine the use of natural compounds as a possible avenue to fight fungal infections produced by Candida albicans, the most common human fungal pathogen. Method: Electronic literature searches were conducted through PubMed/MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Science Direct limited to the 5 years. A total of 131 articles were included with 186 plants extracts evaluated. Results: Although the majority of the natural extracts exhibited antifungal activities against C. albicans (both in vivo and in vitro), the strongest antifungal activity was obtained from Lawsonia inermis, Pelargonium graveolens, Camellia sinensis, Mentha piperita, and Citrus latifolia. Conclusion: The main components with proven antifungal activities were phenolic compounds such as gallic acid, thymol, and flavonoids (specially catechin), polyphenols such as tannins, terpenoids and saponins. The incorporation of nanotechnology enhances greatly the antifungal properties of these natural compounds. Further research is needed to fully characterize the composition of all herbal extracts with antifungal activity as well as the mechanisms of action of the active compounds.

(common names: "jarilla pispito", "pus pus", "lata", "jarilla macho") and Tetraglochin andina Ciald (common names: "horizonte", "canguia", "rancha-rancha", "kailla", "añahuaya") are medicinal plants that grown in arid and semiarid regions of Argentina, and are used to treat mycosis, gastrointestinal, respiratory, and inflammatory diseases according to ethnobotanical data in several local communities in Argentina (Carabajal et al, 2020;Moreno et al, 2018a). Jarillas aerial parts are collected, dried and commercialized in northern Argentina, mainly in the Calchaquies valleys (Fig.…”

Introducción. Los hongos han sido causantes de diversas enfermedades en el ser humano, estas enfermedades se han venido tratando con fármacos antimicóticos que si bien atacan al hongo también han traído consigo efectos adversos como afecciones a la salud de las personas, desarrollo de resistencia al medicamento, entre otras. El desarrollo de fitofármacos ha significado una opción natural para el tratamiento de dichas enfermedades reduciéndose estos efectos adversos. Objetivo. Identificar las plantas que han sido evaluadas para el tratamiento de enfermedades causadas por hongos, así como su eficacia. Metodología. La presente investigación consiste en una revisión bibliográfica de diversos estudios que se enfocan en el uso de plantas en diferentes formas farmacéuticas para el tratamiento de afecciones causadas por hongos. Los estudios fueron extraídos de las bases digitales de Scopus, Google Scholar, Science Direct, Taylor & Francis, Redalyc y Ovid, considerando investigaciones realizadas desde el año 2018 hasta la actualidad, sus características fueron tabuladas para su análisis. Resultados. Se logró identificar que las afecciones más comunes son causadas por el hongo Cándida siendo de las plantas con mayor eficacia el Aloe vera no obstante todas las plantas evaluadas presentaron porcentajes de eficiencia positivos en el tratamiento de los diferentes hongos. Conclusión. Es necesario continuar con los estudios de las diferentes plantas para aprovechar su potencial antifúngico y tener la posibilidad de tratar un amplio número de afecciones causadas por hongos de manera natural, con menor riesgo de efectos secundarios, de desarrollar resistencia fúngica y sobre todo accesible a la población. Área de estudio general: Bioquímica y Farmacia. Área de estudio específica: Farmacología. Tipo de estudio: Artículo de revisión bibliográfica.
