Medicinal and aromatic plants (MAPs) are used in pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and other industries as a source of secondary metabolites. Using MAPs and natural substances is one of the most important factors in ensuring human health. Dracocephalum kotschyi Boiss (locally called Badrandjboie-Dennaie or Zarrin-Giah) is a perennial aromatic plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family, native to Central Asia and Iran, where it usually grows in the highlands of Golestan,

“…These products are natural extracts, standardized with stabilizers and natural antioxidants, and derived from the dried flower of the Marigold plant (Tagetes erecta). It has been previously reported that doses higher than the doses used in this study have not been found to cause chronic toxicity in animals or humans and that none of the compounds produces mutagenicity [42,43]. Corn oil (0.5 mL/rat/day) was used as a vehicle to dissolve lutein/zeaxanthin (L/Z, Lutemax 2020, OmniActive Health Technologies Ltd., Pune, India), QC, and QCG.…”

Exposure to light-emitting diode (LED) light is a primary cause of retinal damage, resulting in vision loss. Several plant-derived substances, such as lutein and quercetagetin (QCG), show promise in supporting eye health. In this study, the impact of lutein/zeaxanthin (L/Z, Lutemax 2020) and QCG were evaluated individually and together in a rat model of LED-induced retinal damage. A total of 63 Wistar rats were allocated into nine groups (n = 7). For 28 days, the rats received L/Z (10 or 20 mg/kg BW), quercetin (QC, 20 mg/kg BW), QCG (10 or 20 mg/kg BW), or a mixture of different lutein and QCG dosages, after which they were exposed to LED light for 48 h. LED exposure led to a spike in serum malondialdehyde (MDA) and inflammatory cytokines, as well as an increase in retinal NF-κB, ICAM, GFAP, and MCP-1 levels (p < 0.0001 for all). It also reduced serum antioxidant enzyme activities and retinal Nrf2, HO-1, GAP43, NCAM, and outer nuclear layer (ONL) thickness (p < 0.0001 for all). However, administering L/Z and QCG, particularly a 1:1 combination of L/Z and QCG at 20 mg/kg, effectively reversed these changes. The treatment suppressed NF-κB, ICAM, GFAP, and MCP-1 while enhancing Nrf2, HO-1, GAP43, and NCAM and preventing ONL thickness reduction in LED-induced retinal damage rats. In conclusion, while LED light exposure caused retinal damage, treatment with L/Z, QC, and QCG, particularly a combined L/Z and QCG regimen, exhibited protective effects on the retina. This is possibly due to the modulation of neuroplasticity markers and nuclear transcription factors in the rats’ retinal cells.

“…The use of marigold as a natural coloring for food and beverages has already been known worldwide, and there has been some researcher conducted in this area already (Navarro-González et al 2015;Alim-un-Nisa et al 2018;Yanti et al 2019;Casella et al 2021). These plants are a rich source of lutein which is very important for the human eyes and immunity, thus its already commercially used and produced as a nutritional supplement in capsule or tablet form (Cannavale et al 2019;Wu et al 2023). Since the human body cannot synthesize those chemicals, it must be obtained from the diet, however, it is known lutein is also contained naturally in fruits, cereals and some vegetables (Gupta et al 2022;Chauhan et al 2022).…”

Tagetes is a genus consisting of several efficacious plant species known as marigold, which is native to Mexico and has spread worldwide due to its ability to adapt to different soil conditions. This genus is very popular among gardeners because it’s easy to cultivate, adaptable, produces flowers all year round, has a free flowering habit, short duration, and the flower has an attractive color and shape. It has many flowers of varying colors such as red, orange, yellow, mixed red-orange or red-yellow, but the yellow and orange color are the most popular. The flowers contain many carotenoids, which act as antioxidants, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogen, nematicide, and cosmetics. The carotenoid can also cure fever, epileptic fits, astringent, scabies, liver complaints, stomachache, sore throat, and can be used as a natural moisturizer, and natural mosquito repellent Besides its use as a medicinal plant, Tagetes is also used as ornamental plants and edible plants. This manuscript’s endeavour is to include some important investigations and studies about the general description, phytochemicals compounds and essential oils, medicinal uses, natural pesticides, and food and beverage uses of the marigolds.
