“…Alkaloids, phenols, and flavonoids were ubiquitous in all plants’ extracts, while M. longifolia lacked steroids and T. cordifolia lacked glycosides. The results agree with previous studies; medicinal plants are rich sources of phytochemicals, alkaloids, phenols, flavonoids, carbohydrates, tannins, steroids, terpenoids, saponins, and glycosides ( 59 – 61 ). Medicinal plants are rich in secondary metabolites, a diverse group of chemicals, which include alkaloids, glycosides, amines, insecticides, steroids, flavonoids, and related metabolites, which have been extensively used in the drug and pharmaceutical industry.…”

IntroductionDietary medicinal plants are among the most sought-after topics in alternative medicine today due to their preventive and healing properties against many diseases.AimThis study aimed to extract and determine the polyphenols from indigenous plants extracts, i.e., Mentha longifolia, M. arvensis, Tinospora cordifolia, Cymbopogon citratus, Foeniculum vulgare, Cassia absus, Camellia sinensis, Trachyspermum ammi, C. sinensis and M. arvensis, then evaluate the antioxidant, cytotoxicity, and antimicrobial properties, besides enzyme inhibition of isolated polyphenols.MethodsThe antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH, Superoxide radical, Hydroxyl radical (OH.), and Nitric oxide (NO.) scavenging activity; the antidiabetic activity was evaluated by enzymatic methods, and anticancer activity using MTT assay, while the antibacterial activity.ResultsThe results showed that tested medicinal plants’ polyphenolic extracts (MPPE) exhibited the most significant antioxidant activity in DPPH, hydroxyl, nitric oxide, and superoxide radical scavenging methods because of the considerable amounts of total polyphenol and flavonoid contents. UHPLC profile showed twenty-five polyphenol complexes in eight medicinal plant extracts, categorized into phenolic acids, flavonoids, and alkaloids. The main polyphenol was 3-Feroylquinic acid (1,302 mg/L), also found in M. longifolia, C. absus, and C. sinensis, has a higher phenolic content, i.e., rosmarinic acid, vanillic acid, chlorogenic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, gallic acid, catechin, luteolin, 7-O-neohesperideside, quercetin 3,7-O-glucoside, hesperidin, rutin, quercetin, and caffeine in the range of (560–780 mg/L). At the same time, other compounds are of medium content (99–312 mg/L). The phenolics in C. sinensis were 20–116% more abundant than those in M. longifolia, C. absus, and other medicinal plants. While T. cordifolia is rich in alkaloids, T. ammi has a lower content. The MTT assay against Caco-2 cells showed that polyphenolic extracts of T. ammi and C. citratus had maximum cytotoxicity. While M. arvensis, C. sinensis, and F. vulgare extracts showed significant enzyme inhibition activity, C. sinensis showed minor inhibition activity against α-amylase. Furthermore, F. vulgare and C. sinensis polyphenolic extracts showed considerable antibacterial activity against S. aureus, B. cereus, E. coli, and S. enterica.DiscussionThe principal component analysis demonstrated clear separation among medicinal plants’ extracts based on their functional properties. These findings prove the therapeutic effectiveness of indigenous plants and highlight their importance as natural reserves of phytogenic compounds with untapped potential that needs to be discovered through advanced analytical methods.

“…4 Junali and Saikial reported that the activity of Mentha leaf extract may be due to the presence of active compounds, such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins, alkaloids that stimulate the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and protein leakage, leading to bacterial membrane damage. 5 The methanolic extract of M. arvensis leaves was screened for antimicrobial activity using microdilution and well diffusion methods against various bacterial pathogens such as S. aureus, P. vulgaris, E. coli, S. typhi, P. aeruginosa, and K. pneumoniae. The extract was effective at various concentrations (1:2, 1:4, and 1:8) against most of the tested bacteria, except K. pneumoniae and E. coli.…”

Treatment with herbal drugs is considered one of the oldest and safest methods for treating various diseases. Mentha arvensis is a medicinal plant used worldwide in the pharmaceutical industry for its antibacterial, anticancer, antiallergic, and anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study, the antibacterial activity of the methanolic extract of M. arvensis leaves was tested at different concentrations (50, 100, 150, and 200 µg/ml) against bacteria isolated from human burn wound infections, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus. The results demonstrated that at concentrations of 100, 150, and 200 µg/ml, the methanolic extract exhibited strong antibacterial activity against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa, while K. pneumoniae isolates were resistant to the extract at all tested concentrations. Further, the cytotoxic activity of the methanolic extract was assessed at various concentrations (100, 140, 160, 180, 220, and 250 µg/ml) against two cell lines: the RD tumor cell line and Vero normal cell line. The higher concentrations of the extract (220 and 250 µg/ml) showed potent cytotoxic effects on the RD cell line after 72 hours in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In contrast, the extract exhibited lower cytotoxic effects on Vero cells at the same concentrations after 72 h.

“…The herbaceous Mentha species are cultivated primarily for their aromatic and therapeutic qualities. [7][8][9] It has a potent, invigorating aroma. It is commonly referred to as hortel-vick, which is classified in traditional medicine as a carminative, stomachic, respiratory decongestant used to cure skin infections.…”

Economical natural menthol is derived from Mentha arvensis Linn (menthol mint) oil. It is an aromatic perennial herb. The leading Mentha producing state in area and production is Uttar Pradesh and India is the leading exporter contributing about 80% of essential oil, menthol crystal and allied products. It is a native herb from the Labiatae family and is most frequently referred to as “pudina”. It has historically been used to treat ischemic heart disease and hypertension. Terpenoids, alcohols and phenolics are just a few of the bioactive substances that have been identified from this plant. These bioactive compounds’ pharmacological activities include antibacterial, neuroprotective, antioxidant, antiulcer, immunomodulatory, antimutagenic, and anti-tumor properties. Studies on Ayurvedic, unani, and other traditional medical systems have also revealed this plant’s pharmacological capabilities. The current article provides a summary of the plant’s general description, phytochemical ingredients, historical context, and pharmacological qualities
