Abstract
Desmodium gangeticum, also known as Salaparni, is an endangered medicinal herb from the Leguminosae family and Fabaceae sub-family. This plant is an essential component of Laghupanchamoola and the broader Dashamoola formulations in Ayurvedic medicine, where it is considered a premier medicinal herb. Globally, researchers have investigated the plant for its rich variety of bioactive compounds, including Gangetinoid, Gangetinin, N,N-tryptamine, Kaempferol, and Quercetin. Desmodium gangeticum exhibits a wide range of pharmacological effects such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, wound healing, antifungal, antidiabetic, anticancer, antidiarrheal, antiulcer, anti-inflammatory, antiamoebic, hepatoprotective, nematocidal, and cardio-protective properties. It is employed in the treatment of various health issues including hypertension, diabetes, malaria, and asthma. This review seeks to summarise the chemical profiling and therapeutic potential of Desmodium gangeticum.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
