A delve into the pharmacological targets and biological mechanisms of Paederia foetida Linn.: a rather invaluable traditional medicinal plant

Unveiling the pharmacological potential of Coelogyne suaveolens: An investigation of its diverse pharmacological activities by in vivo and computational studies

“…Many powerful conventional medicinal agents, such as vincristine, paclitaxel, and vinblastine (Cragg & Newman, 2005 ), cardioprotective drugs like digoxin (Morris et al., 2006 ), narcotic analgesics such as morphine (Rates, 2001 ), and anti‐malarial drugs such as artemisinin and quinine (Queiroz et al., 2009 ), were first discovered as a result of the influence of phytochemistry. Studies have been conducted recently on a variety of medicinal plants, including Hedychium spicatum , whose rhizomes are used to treat pain, diarrhea, nausea, liver issues, vomiting, inflammation, headache, stomachaches, and fever, as well as Erigeron bonariensis , which is said to have antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti‐inflammatory properties, and Paederia foetida , which has anti‐diabetic, anti‐hyperlipidemic, antioxidant, nephro‐protective, anti‐inflammatory, antinociceptive, antitussive, thrombolytic, anti‐diarrhoeal, sedative‐anxiolytic, anti‐ulcer, hepatoprotective, and anthelmintic activity (Mahanur et al., 2023 ; Sarma et al., 2023 ; Singh et al., 2023 ). On the other hand, in silico methods, as described in recent research (Hossain et al., 2023 ; Madden et al., 2020 ), create predictions about numerous characteristics of chemical compounds, particularly ADME traits, along with their biological function and toxicity, using the current data and molecular composition information.…”
