“…Yang et al revealed that Sedum alfredii , could hyperaccumulate cadmium and lead; in addition, they conducted extensive studies on the enrichment mechanism and successfully applied it in phytoremediation [ 13 , 32 , 33 ]. Shuhe Wei conducted several studies in screening new cadmium hyperaccumulators and actively applied them in phytoremediation [ 9 , 34 , 35 ]. Longhua Wu found that Sedum plumbizincicola had a strong ability to absorb cadmium from soil, and made serious progress in soil remediation and intercropping [ 36 , 37 , 38 ].…”

Cadmium pollution of soil threatens the environmental quality and human health. Phytoremediation of cadmium-contaminated soil has attracted global attention in recent decades. This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive and systematic review of the literature on phytoremediation of cadmium-contaminated soil based on bibliometric analysis. A total of 5494 articles published between 1994 and 2021 were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection. Our knowledge mapping presented the authors, journals, countries, institutions, and other basic information to understand the development status of phytoremediation of cadmium-contaminated soil. Based on a keyword cluster analysis, the identified major research domains were “biochar”, “Thlaspi caerulescens”, “endophytic bacteria”, “oxidative stress”, “EDTA”, and “bioconcentration factor”. Overall, this study provided a detailed summary of research trends and hotspots. Based on the keyword co-occurrence and burst analysis, the core concepts and basic theories of this field were completed in 2011. However, the pace of theoretical development has been relatively slow. Finally, future research trends/frontiers were proposed, such as biochar addition, rhizosphere bacterial community manipulation, cadmium subcellular distribution, and health risk assessment.

“…Phytoremediation, a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly technology, has been proven by international researchers to be an effective way to remove metals from contaminated soil [ 9 , 10 ]. Researchers are actively seeking out plants with the ability to hyperaccumulate cadmium in their shoots [ 11 , 12 , 13 ].…”

“…In laboratory scale research, the Pb concentration in mahogany leaves reached 30.76 ppm while bintaro reached 24.9 ppm (Hindratmo et al 2019). Solanum nigrum L is reported to also have the potential to be used as a phytoremediation plant (Han et al 2021). Fenugreek plant (Trigonella foenum-graecum L) is also reported as a type of phytoremediation plant (Bhandari and Singh 2022).…”

Lead (Pb), a heavy metal, has characteristics that make it simple to recycle. Due to its ease of recycling and continued economic value, this metal is highly sought-after in its scrap form. Because they contain leads that can still be used, used batteries are one of the waste materials that are still sought after. Illegal recycling puts people at risk of lead pollution exposure, which is bad for everyone's health but especially for growing children. The purpose of this study is to gather data and details regarding blood lead levels (BLL) in kids across several Indonesian cities. A total of 167 elementary school-aged children from Tangerang Regency, Medan City, and Surabaya City participated in the research study in 2016. A Lead Care Portable Analyzer (ESA Laboratories, Chelmsford, MA, USA) was used to measure BLL. The average BLL of all the participants whose blood samples were tested was 12.45 µg/dL, with Tangerang Regency having the highest average BLL at 30.67 g/dL. It was 3.55 µg/dL for respondents from Surabaya City and 4.38 µg/dL for respondents from Medan City, respectively. The average value is significantly higher than the WHO's BLL cutoff of 3.5 µg/dL. A high BLL indicates that there is still lead contamination. To lessen the negative effects of lead pollution in both the air and the water, remediation must be mitigated by using vacant land and planting trees. Regular lead data monitoring is done to identify pollution at an early stage.

“…Understanding the complex interplay between environmental pollution and antioxidant dynamics in medicinal plants is decisive for mitigating the impact on plant health and the potential therapeutic benefits derived from these plants. Strategies aimed at reducing pollution, implementing sustainable agricultural practices, and monitoring the quality of ecosystems are essential for preserving the medicinal properties of these valuable plant resources [ 70 ].…”

The paper provides a comprehensive examination of heavy metal stress on medicinal plants, focusing on its impact on antioxidant capacity and biosynthetic pathways critical to their therapeutic potential. It explores the complex relationship between heavy metals and the physiological and biochemical responses of medicinal plants, highlighting how metal stress disrupts biosynthetic pathways, altering concentrations of secondary metabolites. This disruption may compromise the overall quality and efficacy of medicinal plants, requiring a holistic understanding of its cumulative impacts. Furthermore, the study discusses the potential of targeted genetic editing to enhance plant resilience against heavy metal stress by manipulating genes associated with antioxidant defenses. This approach represents a promising frontier in safeguarding medicinal plants in metal-contaminated environments. Additionally, the research investigates the role of phytohormone signaling in plant adaptive mechanisms to heavy metal stress, revealing its influence on biochemical and physiological responses, thereby adding complexity to plant adaptation. The study underscores the importance of innovative technologies and global cooperation in protecting medicinal plants’ therapeutic potential and highlights the need for mitigation strategies to address heavy metal contamination effectively.
