Putranjiva roxburghii, Ethnobotany, Secondary metabolites, Medicinal propertiesAbstract
Putranjiva roxburghii Wall. is known for its medicinal properties and credited with a significant role in Ayurvedic texts as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-rheumatic herb, that is also useful to treat gynaecological and fertility disorders. Almost all parts of the plant, i.e, root, stem, leaves, fruits, and seeds contain numerous secondary metabolites such as phenolics, glycosides, triterpenes, and flavonoids. The presence of these phytochemicals imparts significant therapeutic activities to the plant such as anti-hyperglycaemic, analgesic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and antiparasitic properties, and hence, the plant parts and its extracts can be used as a cure for varied diseases, including cancer.
