“…The anti-hypercholesterolemic effects of Sideritis hyssopifolia has been demonstrated in this study for the first time. Other authors have demonstrated the antioxidant properties of different Sideritis species [52,53] as well as their lowering effect on triglycerides [54]. The antioxidant activity found for these species was intermediate, as our results indicate for Sideritis hyssopifolia , L. This antioxidant activity has been related mainly to their content in polyphenols.…”

Many publications have described the potential cardioprotective action of different medicinal plants, relating this effect with blood lipid levels. However, these publications do not justify the right amount of plant administered, which can vary greatly. Sideritis hyssopifolia is a little woody plant endemic to western and southwestern Europe. We have quantified its antioxidant activity, which can be used as an indicator of its cardioprotective action. This study evaluates the antioxidant capacity of Sideritis hyssopifolia to design a feed whose hypolipidemic effects are proven in cholesterol-fed New Zealand rabbits. Antioxidant action was assessed in infusions, which were prepared with 1 or 3 g of plant in 200 mL of water by using an ABTS assay and expressed as Ascorbic acid Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (AEAC). Aqueous infusions with infusion times of 10 min and prepared with 3 g plant exhibited the strongest antioxidant activity. Sideritis hyssopifolia showed an intermediate antioxidant capacity for the concentrations and times of the infusion tested. According to our results, we suggest incorporating 2.36 g of S. hyssopifolia every 150 g of rabbit feeding stuff (15.73 g/kg). This chow decreased cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides levels in cholesterol-fed rabbits, as well as the atherogenic index. This reduction was similar to that obtained with simvastatin.

Turkey with a huge and rich variety of flora reserves lots of medical, aromatic and bioactive properties plants within its structure. In Turkey public medical science applications are encountered extensively and Turkey is one of the leading countries in the trade of medicinal and aromatic plants because of its geographical location, difference climate conditions, plant diversity and agricultural potential. As in whole world and in Turkey, use of plants existing in the natural flora for different purposes in traditional medicine; as spice, tea, insecticide, resin, veterinary cure, glue, essential oil, beverage, beekeeping, landscape and cosmetic industry. On the other hand, this important ethnobotanical knowledges are facing a danger of being lost by contemperary urbanisation and other negative factors.The local population has long utilized the taxa of the genus Sideritis L., as herbal tea and in traditional medicine. Most of Sideritis taxa have significant biological activity, the biological activities and traditional usage of the Sideritis taxa are far better understood in recent years but still needs attention. The majority of Sideritis taxa exhibit a variety of biological functions and are highly interesting for future research on their pharmacological characteristics and potential for pharmacy and medicine.In this study, it is aimed to review major essential oil compound, usage of traditional knowledge and biological activities of some Sideritis taxa in Turkey.

Sideritis caesarea H. Duman, Aytaç & Başer of the Lamiaceae is an Anatolian endemic species, and is mainly used as herbal tea and folk medicine. This present study aimed to determine and compare the chemical compositions of the volatile components of S. caesarea specimens collected from different localities in Kayseri province, Turkey: Sariz town (samples A and B), Pınarbaşı-Kaynar (sample C) and Pınarbaşı-Şirvan Mountain (sample D), respectively. Initially, the essential oils of the aerial parts were obtained by hydrodistillation and analysed both by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID), gas chromatography/mass spectrometer (GC/MS), simultaneously. Major volatile components of samples A and D were characterized as hexadecanoic acid (19.7 and 20.5%), caryophyllene oxide (6.7 and 20.2%), β-caryophyllene (6.5 and 12.6%), respectively. In sample B, hexadecanoic acid (14.6%), β-caryophyllene (11.5%) and caryophyllene oxide (8.3%) were detected as the major components. Whereas caryophyllene oxide (13.7%), hexadecanoic acid (8.5%) and spathulenol (6.1%) were the main components of the essential oil of sample C. Besides the chemical profiling, in vitro antimicrobial effects of samples were evaluated against a panel of six pathogenic microorganisms. Inhibition zones of the tested samples varied against bacteria with low to moderate activity, where no susceptibility against Candida albicans was observed.
