The biggest genus of flowering plants in the Plumbaginaceae family is called Plumbago indica L. This plant is regarded as toxic and is used mostly for external applications to cure skin conditions. The root is thought to be the most active component of the plant. It is regarded as an emmenagogue, abortifacient, alterative, carminative, stimulant, tomachic, and vesicant. The root is used internally to improve menstrual flow, cleanse the blood, stimulate digestion, and induce abortion. Leprosy, rheumatism, paralysis, tumors, headaches, toothaches, hemorrhoids, and swollen glands can all be treated with a poultice made from the roots. A vesicant is created using the root-bark. The leaves are applied as a poultice to cure headaches and rheumatism. With regard to taxonomy, morphology, medicinal applications, phytochemistry, pharmacology, and toxicity, Plumbago indica research has made significant strides in recent years. This study seeks to provide full information on such advances. Studies on its phytochemistry and pharmacology are the key areas of interest. Scientific databases such Web of Science, Pub Med, Google Scholar, Google, Sci. Finder, Science direct, Springer Link, and Wiley were used to find pertinent material. Many phytochemical and pharmacological investigations on Plumbago indica have been conducted in the last ten years. The naphthoquinone plumbagin is the plant's main active ingredient. Leucodelphinidin, plumbaginol (a flavonol), 6-hydroxyplumbagin, and steroids are further substances that have been identified from the aerial portions. Plumbagin has a range of pharmacological properties, including as anti-implantation, abortifacient, anti-microbial, anti-cancer, cardiotonic, and anti-fertility effects. Moreover, it is a potent irritant. To inspire further research, this review paper included empirically supported information on its therapeutic applications, photochemistry, pharmacology, and toxicological actions.
水杨花科最大的开花植物属被称为水杨花。这种植物被认为是有毒的,主要用于外用治疗皮肤状况。根被认为是植物中最活跃的成分。它被认为是一种催吐剂、流产剂、替代剂、催发剂、兴奋剂、兴奋剂和除湿剂。根内使用,以改善月经流动,清洁血液,促进消化,并诱导流产。麻风病、风湿病、麻痹、肿瘤、头痛、牙痛、痔疮和腺体肿胀都可以用根茎制成的膏药来治疗。一种发泡剂是用根皮制成的。叶子被用作治疗头痛和风湿病的膏药。在分类、形态、药用、植物化学、药理和毒性等方面,近年来对印度梧桐的研究取得了重大进展。本研究旨在提供有关这些进展的全部信息。对其植物化学和药理学的研究是研究的重点领域。科学数据库,如Web of Science, Pub Med, Google Scholar, Google, Sci。Finder, Science direct, Springer Link和Wiley被用来查找相关材料。近十年来,人们对印度梧桐进行了大量的植物化学和药理研究。萘醌白丹素是这种植物的主要活性成分。白蜡白蜡素、白桦白蜡醇(一种黄酮醇)、6-羟基白桦白蜡素和类固醇是进一步从空中部分鉴定出来的物质。白丹素具有一系列的药理特性,包括抗着床、堕胎、抗微生物、抗癌、强心和抗生育作用。此外,它是一种强烈的刺激物。为了启发进一步的研究,本文综述了其治疗应用、光化学、药理学和毒理学作用的实证支持信息。

The main aim of this study was to assess the toxicological effects of the aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels in rodents. To assess the acute toxicity, mice were given the aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels (5000 mg/kg) orally for 14 days. Subacute toxicity of aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels (250 and 500 mg/kg) in rats was tested for 28 days. The results of the acute toxicity study showed that oral administration of the aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels (5000 mg/kg) did not alter the general behavior of mice, and did not cause mortality in mice at a dose of 5000 mg/kg. The aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels, at the doses studied during 28 days of treatment in rats, significantly reduced serum transaminase levels (ALAT and ASAT) compared with negative controls. These levels went from: 97.7±2.28; 98.06±2.46 IU/L (negative control) to 69.44±4.09; 70.44±3.51 IU/L (p< 0.01), a reduction of 28.26% and 27.62% respectively in rats treated with Tetracarpidium conophorum. The aqueous extract of Tetracarpidium conophorum kernels in rats significantly increased white and red blood cell levels: 14.93±0.39; 10.96±0.31 (103/mm3) (p< 0.05) versus 7.41±0.11 (103/mm3) in the negative control. However, the drop in serum transaminase levels and the increase in blood cells suggest that this extract may have hepato-protective and immunostimulant effects.
