The majority of structures found were flavones and flavonols, sometimes with 6- and/or 8-substitution, and with a varying degree of oxidation and methylation. Flava- nones were observed in exudates of some genera, and, in some cases, also flavonol- and flavone glycosides were detected. This was mostly the case when exudates were poor both in yield and chemical complexity. Structurally diverse profiles are found particularly within Astereae and Heliantheae. The tribes in the subfamily Cichorioideae exhibited less complex flavonoid profiles. Current results are compared to literature data, and botanical information is included on the studied taxa.

  • Natural Anti-Inflammatory Agents: Recent Progress and Future Perspectives
    Review Article Annals of Pharmacology and Pharmaceutics Published: 04 Sep, 2018 Natural Anti-Inflammatory Agents: Recent Progress and Future Perspectives Ashwani K Dhingra1*, Bhawna Chopra1 and Brahmaiah Bonthagarala2 1Guru Gobind Singh College of Pharmacy, India 2Hindu College of Pharmacy, India Abstract Background: Although, various synthetic anti-inflammatory drugs were reported to be used for the treatment of inflammatory disorders but it is still a challenge for the medicinal chemists to develop more potent therapeutic agents. Since most of the clinically used anti-inflammatory drugs like NSAIDs, Coxibs, GCs and TNF inhibitors etc. are allied with considerable toxicity. Method: A variety of medicinal plants are known to exhibit a wide range of interesting biological activities like antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, analgesic, antimicrobial, anticancer, antiprotozoal, antioxidant, antiparasitic, antiplatelet, cardioprotective, anthelmintic, antidiabetic, antitubercular, trypanocidal and anti-HIV. Reported literature survey has been studied to summarize medicinal plants which were utilized as potential anti-inflammatory agents. Results: The search of novel anti-inflammatory agent is not an ending process. An array of herbal drugs targeting inflammatory cytokines has been identified in the past regained their popularity due to devoid of toxicity. Conclusion: The present review summarizes recently explored anti-inflammatory herbal drugs and preparations which will be precious for the researchers to working in the field
