[PMID: 38985312 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-024-03266-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
The purpose of this review study is to provide a condensed compilation of 164 medicinal plants that have been investigated for their neuroprotective aspects by researchers between the years 2012 and 2022 which also includes a recent update of 2023-2024. After using certain keywords to retrieve the data from SCOPUS, it was manually sorted to eliminate any instances of duplication. The article is streamlined into three major segments. The first segment takes a dig into the current global trend and attempts to decrypt vital information related to plant names, families, plant parts used, and neurological disorders investigated. The second segment of the article makes an attempt to present a comprehensive insight into the various mechanistic pathways through which phytochemicals can intervene to exert neuroprotection. The final segment of the manuscript is a bibliometric appraisal of all researches conducted. The study is based on 256 handpicked articles based on decided inclusion criteria. Illustrative compilation of various pathways citing their activation and deactivation channels are also presented with possible hitting points of various phytochemicals. The present study employed Microsoft Excel 2019 and VOS viewer as data visualisation tools.

Tungmunnithum D, Drouet S, Garros L, Hano C. Differential Flavonoid and Other Phenolic Accumulations and Antioxidant Activities of Nymphaea lotus L. Populations throughout Thailand. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27113590. [PMID: 35684520 PMCID: PMC9182519 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27113590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Revised: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Nymphaea lotus L. is a potential plant in the Nymphaeaceae family that is well-recognized as an economic and traditional medicinal plant in Thailand and other countries. Its pharmacological and medicinal effects have been confirmed. However, there is no study going deeper into the population level to examine the phytochemical variation and biological activity of each population that benefits phytopharmaceutical and medical applications using this plant as raw material. This study was intensely conducted to complete this important research gap to investigate the flavonoid profiles from its floral parts, the stamen and perianth, as well as the antioxidant potential of the 13 populations collected from every floristic region by (1) analyzing their flavonoid profiles, including the HPLC analysis, and (2) investigating the antioxidant capacity of these populations using three assays to observe different antioxidant mechanisms. The results indicated that the northeastern and northern regions are the most abundant floristic regions, and flavonoids are the main phytochemical class of both stamen and perianth extracts from N. lotus. The stamen offers higher flavonoids and richer antioxidant potential compared with the perianth. This finding is also the first completed report at the population level to describe the significant correlation between the phytochemical profiles in floral parts extracts and the main antioxidant activity, which is mediated by the electron transfer mechanism. The results from the Pearson correlation coefficients between several phytochemicals and different antioxidant assessments highlighted that the antioxidant capability of these extracts is the result of complex phytochemical combinations. The frontier knowledge from these current findings helps to open up doors for phytopharmaceutical industries to discover their preferred populations and floral parts that fit with their targeted products.

Antioxidants (Basel) 2020; 9:E576. [PMID: 32630721 PMCID: PMC7402147 DOI: 10.3390/antiox9070576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2020] [Revised: 06/25/2020] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Nymphaea lotus L. is the medicinal plant that has long been used for food, cosmetics and traditional medicines in Africa and Asia since ancient times. Its flavonoids and other interesting phytochemical compounds from rhizome, leaf and the whole flowers have been reported in the previous published research. However, stamens, which are essential for reproductive functions, may also represent new alternative sources of potential antioxidant flavonoids, as investigated in this study. The innovative green chemistry methods, i.e., ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) as well as a macroporous resin (MPR) purification procedure, were employed in this current research. Using a full factorial design coupled to three-dimensional (3D) surface plot methodology, the influence of three variables, namely aqEtOH concentration (ranging from 50 to 100% (v/v), US frequency (ranging from 0 (no US applied) to 45 kHz), and the extraction duration (ranging from 20 to 60 min), were evaluated. Five MPRs with different surface areas, average pore diameters, matrix types and polarities were also investigated for the purification of total flavonoids. The optimal UAE condition is 90% (v/v) aqEtOH with 34.65 khz ultrasonic frequency and 46 min of extraction duration. Compared with the conventional heat reflux extraction (HRE) method, a significant 1.35-fold increase in total flavonoids content was obtained using optimized UAE conditions (169.64 for HRE vs. 235.45 mg/g dry weight for UAE), causing a 2.80-fold increase when this UAE associated with MPR purification (475.42 mg/g dry weight). In vitro cell free antioxidant activity of N. lotus stamen extracts and in cellulo antioxidant investigation using yeast model showed the same trend, indicating that the best antioxidant flavonoid can be found in UAE coupled with MPR purification. Moreover, in the yeast model, the expression of key antioxidant genes such as SIR2 and SOD2 were expressed at the highest level in yeast cells treated with the extract from UAE together with MPR purification. Consequently, it can be seen that the UAE combined with MPR purification can help enhance the flavonoid antioxidant potential of the stamens extract from this medicinal species.
