姜科家族是生物活性植物化学物质的多样化储存库,由大约52属和1300种芳香多年生草本植物组成,以其独特的爬行水平或块茎根茎为特征。AmomumvillosumLour.和Amomumtsao-koCrevost&Lemaire。,是姜科的重要植物,已在传统医学中广泛用于治疗许多疾病。Amomum物种因其芳香品质而被使用,并被视为香料和调味品。在Amomum物种的精油(EOs)中,值得注意的成分包括,樟脑,甲基查维考,乙酸冰片酯,反式-对-(1-丁烯基)茴香醚,α-pine烯,和β-pine烯。
目的:这篇综述的目的是概述从这两个物种中分离的提取物和次生代谢产物的药理研究。审查的首要目标不仅是提高Amomum作为健康食品选择的受欢迎程度,而且在可预见的未来提高其作为主要成分的地位。
结果:我们努力收集关于抗氧化剂的最新信息,抗糖尿病药,抗癌,抗肥胖,抗菌,和植物的抗炎特性以及它们在神经保护疾病中的作用。通过体外研究进行的研究,动物模型,和化合物分析显示,两种植物都表现出多样化的健康促进特性。
结论:综合综述论文提供了对A.villosum和A.tsao-ko中发现的各种生物活性植物化学物质的宝贵见解,展示他们在预防疾病和促进整体人类福祉方面的潜力。收集有关其各种健康增强特性的信息有助于更广泛地了解这些植物及其在传统医学及其他领域的潜在应用。
The Zingiberaceae family serves as a diverse repository of bioactive phytochemicals, comprising approximately 52 genera and 1300 species of aromatic perennial herbs distinguished by their distinct creeping horizontal or tuberous rhizomes. Amomum villosum Lour. and Amomum tsao-ko Crevost & Lemaire., are the important plants of family Zingiberaceae that have been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of many ailments. The Amomum species are employed for their aromatic qualities and are valued as spices and flavorings. In the essential oils (EOs) of Amomum species, notable constituents include,
camphor, methyl chavicol, bornyl acetate, trans-p-(1-butenyl) anisole, α-pinene, and β-pinene.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this review is to present an overview of pharmacological studies pertaining to the extracts and secondary metabolites isolated from both species. The foremost objective of review is not only to increase the popularity of Amomum as a healthy food choice but also to enhance its status as a staple ingredient for the foreseeable future.
RESULTS: We endeavored to gather the latest information on antioxidant, antidiabetic, anticancer, antiobesity, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties of plants as well as their role in neuroprotective diseases. Research conducted through in-vitro studies, animal model, and compounds analysis have revealed that both plants exhibit a diverse array health promoting properties.
CONCLUSIONS: the comprehensive review paper provides valuable insights into the diverse range of bioactive phytochemicals found in A. villosum and A. tsao-ko, showcasing their potential in preventing diseases and promoting overall human well-being. The compilation of information on their various health-enhancing properties contributes to the broader understanding of these plants and their potential applications in traditional medicine and beyond.
