Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels. It can be potentially managed by several medicinal plants. Extracts of S. nigrum have demonstrated various beneficial properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antihyperlipidemic, and liver-protective effects, and have improved glycemic control. This review discusses the therapeutic potential of S. nigrum for diabetes and various targeted signaling pathways of S. nigrum as well as biosynthesis of two phytoconstituents. Additionally, it also covers the various isolation and extraction methods and different analytical methods for the identification of isolated compounds. Furthermore, various studies reported so far for the management of DM are also discussed along with the different nanoformulations of S. nigrum.
期刊介绍：
The South African Journal of Botany publishes original papers that deal with the classification, biodiversity, morphology, physiology, molecular biology, ecology, biotechnology, ethnobotany and other botanically related aspects of species that are of importance to southern Africa. Manuscripts dealing with significant new findings on other species of the world and general botanical principles will also be considered and are encouraged.
