Biologically active compounds of plant origin in medicine

“…Centella asiatica is a source of a wide range of bioactive substances used in phytotherapy. One of the main groups of compounds present in this species comprises pentacyclic triterpenoids, which are divided into oleanae-and ursane-type, depending on the methyl substituent in the C19 and C20 backbones (with double bonds between C12-C13, C13-C18, and C20-C21) [Matsuda et al 2001a, James and Dubery 2009, Shao et al 2014.…”
