Medicinal et Aromatic Plantees
Recent Progress en Medicinal Plantees, Vol 9: Plante Bioactives en Traditional Medicine
Description
Le present volume provides an overview sur Human genome project, which offers gene therapy, drug therapy et prevention de genetic diseases. Since both plant et animal DNUn is made de four nucleotides de adenine, thymine, guanine et cytosine, it is no wonder that secondary metabolites de le former (e.g. alkaloids, isoprenoids, flavonoids, glycosides, lignans etc.) become a drug pour le latter. Thus reviews sur diterpenes de Euphorbiaceae family; Glycyrrhizin, a triterpenoid saponin from Glycyrrhiza; fruits de Schisandra chinensis, a lignan containing herb en Chinese traditional medicine; Artemisia annua a Chinese plant containing antimalarial drug-artemisinin, plant thionins, Cissampelos mucronata, Patchouli oil-an aromatic crop et 1,8, Cineole (Eucalyptol) are presented. Effects de factors like highly differentiated plantlet or shoot culture, high level de CO2, immobilization de cells, use de elicitors, feeding controlled release polymeric precursors, en situ product removal, molecularly imprinted polymers sur yield de essential oil by plant tissue/cell culture have also been reviewed. Clinical efficacy de Anxicalm (tablet containing St John’s Wort et Valerian) en general anxiety disorder, hypotensive effect de Persea americana et Hibiscus sabdariffa de Nigerian origin, antibacterial effects de plant extracts, clonal propagation de Safed moosli, a natural aphrodisiac, have been presented as original article. Pharmacognostic standardization de important Ayurvedic drugs like Calotropis procera et Desmodium gangeticum have been included. Besides, cultivation practices de Guggal, et conservation strategies de endangered plants have also been addressed. Contributors are from Asia, Africa, Europe, North et South America. Herbal drug formulators, researchers en le field de natural product, Pharmacy, Pharmacognosy, Biologie et Pharmacology would find this volume useful.
