ABSTRACT
The plant is rich in flavonoids such as rhein, phenolics (fistulic
acid), lignans, glycosides, anthracene derivatives, and catechins,
obtained from various parts. These phytochemicals possess
pharmacological effects such as hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory,
antioxidant, antipyretic, antitussive activity, antiulcer, central
nervous system activity, hypo-lipidaemia, larvicidal/ovicidal,
laxative, leukotriene inhibition, anticancer, antidiabetic,
antiepileptic, antifeedant, antifertility, urease inhibition, wound
healing, antimicrobial, antifungal antibacterial, and antiviral
activities. The present review has focused on the discussion of
bioactives of the Cassia fistula (CF) and the bioeffects on the
medicinal claims. Our findings provided evidence that CF aqueous and
organic solvent extracts of these tested plants contain medicinally
important bioactive compounds and it justifies their use in the
traditional medicines for the treatment of different diseases. |
