背景:植物已在传统医学中长期用于治疗许多疾病。Prangos属属于Apiaceae家族,具有各种药用和芳香物种。自古以来,Prangos物种已在传统医学中广泛用于不同目的,并且因其壮阳作用而特别受欢迎。
目的:本文的目的是对Prangos属的物种进行系统回顾,包括它们的植物学特征,用于传统医学,植物化学成分,产生的精油的成分,和生物学特性。
方法:使用电子数据库(如PubMed,谷歌学者,和科学直接。使用世界植物区系在线(WFO)-植物列表,国际植物名称索引,世界维管植物清单(2024),和ChemDrawProfessional帮助完成了此编译。
结果:植物化学研究表明,香豆素是Prangos物种的特征成分,尤其是异戊二烯化和呋喃香豆素,还有类黄酮,萜类化合物,和植物甾醇存在于该属中。此外,这些植物的精油已被检查。Prangos物种的生物学特性似乎值得进一步研究。此外,介绍了有关这些物种的毒性及其在食品中用作成分的一些信息。
结论:这篇综述强调了对传统知识的评估,植物化学概况,生物活动,以及Prangos物种作为食物和香料的潜在用途。已经进行了许多与其传统用途相关的药理活性。但经常,确切的作用机制尚未得到科学证实。这篇综述收集了植物化学的数据,活性次生代谢产物,生物学特性,以及最近在Prangos物种方面的进展。
BACKGROUND: Plants have been used for a long time in traditional medicine to treat many diseases. The genus Prangos belongs to the Apiaceae family and has various medicinal and aromatic species. Since ancient times, Prangos species have been employed extensively in traditional medicine for different purposes and are especially popular for their aphrodisiac effects.
OBJECTIVE: The goal of this paper is to represent a systematic review of the species in the genus Prangos, including their botanical characteristics, uses in traditional medicine, phytochemical constituents, the composition of the essential oils produced, and the biological properties.
METHODS: The articles regarding traditional uses and bioactivities of Prangos species were evaluated using electronic databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. Use of the World Flora Online (WFO) - The Plant List, The International Plant Names Index, the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (2024), and ChemDraw Professional helped complete this compilation.
RESULTS: Phytochemical investigations have indicated that coumarins are characteristic constituents of Prangos species, especially prenylated simple coumarins and furanocoumarins, and also flavonoids, terpenoids, and phytosterols occur in this genus. In addition, the essential oils of these plants have been examined. The biological properties of the Prangos species seem worthy of further investigation. Also, some information about the toxicity of these species and their use as ingredients in food products is presented.
CONCLUSIONS: This review highlights the evaluation of traditional knowledge, phytochemical profiles, biological activities, and potential uses of Prangos species as foods and spices. Many pharmacological activities have been performed related to their traditional uses, but frequently, the exact mechanism of action remains scientifically unproven. This review has compiled data on the phytochemistry, the active secondary metabolites, the biological properties, and recent advances in Prangos species.
