“…Furthermore, learning has also been shown to be important in the traditional medicine skill acquisition. Previous studies have shown that herbs are tightly regulated in Germany with half of these traditional herbs prescribed by orthodox Physicians and covered by health insurance schemes (Edzard, 2002;Marty, 1999). The work of Cassileth (1996) also reported that at least half of American alternative practitioners are Physicians.…”

“…The fruit is considered as an effective medicinal plant against diabetes mellitus in Iranian and Turkish traditional medicine. 9,10 Experimental studies reported that rose hips act as a potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-mutagen agent. 11 It is recognized that R canina fruits encompass various phytochemical compounds including organic acids, amino acid, phospholipids, carotenoids, flavonoids, tannins, carbohydrates, unsaturated and polysaturated fatty acids, tocopherols, minerals, gallactolipid, pectin, ascorbic acid, and carotene.…”

Rosa canina fruits have been used traditionally for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and its complications. The aim of current study was to evaluate the in vitro mechanism of action of R canina in managing diabetes mellitus. Cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assay were performed on pancreatic β-cells, βTC6. The protective activity of the extract on streptozotocin-induced death in βTC6 cells was studied. The effect of R canina on the metabolism of glucose in HepG2, a hepatocellular carcinoma cell line, was evaluated. The effect of the extract on glucose diffusion across the dialysis membrane, which is a comfortable model for assessing cellular glucose absorption, was evaluated. The results obtained from current study confirmed that R canina extract can act as a growth factor for pancreatic β-cell line providing a novel mechanism for the observed antidiabetic effect of this natural agent. Further preclinical studies are necessary to evaluate the perfect mechanism of action of R canina in diabetes mellitus.

“…Only four species of the genus Scrophularia are present in Saudi Arabia [ 2 , 3 ]. Members of this genus are used traditionally as anti-inflammatory, anticancer, laxative, diuretic, heart and circulatory stimulant treatments [ 4 , 5 ]. They are also applied for the treatment of pharyngitis, neuritis, laryngitis, smallpox, measles, high-heat plague and poisoning, dermatitis and rheumatoid arthritis [ 4 , 6 , 7 ].…”

Phytochemical investigation of the chloroform fraction obtained from Scrophularia hypericifolia aerial parts led to the isolation of nine acylated iridoid glycosides. The new compounds were identified as 6-O-α-L(2”-acetyl, 3”,4”-di-O-trans-cinnamoyl) rhamnopyranosyl-6’-acetyl catalpol (6’-acetyl hypericifolin A) (1), 6-O-α-L(2”, 4”-diacetyl, 3”-O-trans-cinnamoyl) rhamnopyranosyl-6’-acetyl catalpol (6’-acetyl hypericifolin B) (2), 6-O-α-L(2”-acetyl, 3”,4”-di-O-trans-cinnamoyl) rhamnopyranosyl catalpol (hypericifolin A) (3) and 6-O-α-L(2”, 4”-diacetyl, 3"-O-trans-cinnamoyl) rhamnopyranosyl catalpol (hypericifolin B) (4). Previously reported compounds were identified as laterioside (5), 8-O-acetylharpagide (6), 6-O-α-L(4’-O-trans-cinnamoyl) rhamnopyranosyl catalpol (7), lagotisoside D (8) and harpagoside (9). Identification achieved via analyses of physical and spectral data including 1D, 2D NMR and High Resolution Electrospray Ionization Mass spectroscopy (HRESIMS). Compounds 2–4 and 6 were subjected to biological evaluation against paracetamol-induced toxicity. The biochemical parameters aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) as well as total bilirubin were used to access the liver condition. Measurement of serum levels of urea, creatinine, sodium and potassium cations were indicators for kidney condition. Liver and kidney samples were subjected to histopathological study. The best protection was found in the group treated with 3 followed by 4 and 6, while 2 was almost inactive.
