“…The Plant List ( The Plant List, 2021 ), International Plant Name Index ( International Plant Name Index, 2021 ) and Kew Botanical Garden ( Kew Botanical Garden, 2021a ; Kew Botanical Garden, 2021b ) were used for obtaining the scientific names and information on the subspecies and cultivars. Studies have demonstrated that the crude extracts from plants belonging to genus Sanguisorba or the purified monomers isolated from the plants of this genus exhibit various pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory ( Su et al, 2018a ; Guo et al, 2019 ; Yasueda et al, 2020 ), anti-cancer ( Liu et al, 2016 ; Nam et al, 2017 ; Tan et al, 2019 ; Bai et al, 2020a ; Liao et al, 2020 ), anti-lipid peroxidation ( Zhang et al, 2012a ; Romojaro et al, 2013a ; Kim et al, 2018a ; Lenzi et al, 2019 ), anti-bacteria ( Su et al, 2019 ; Zhu et al, 2020a ), anti-diabetes ( Kuang et al, 2011 ; Son et al, 2015 ), hepatoprotective ( Stojiljković et al, 2019 ; Meng et al, 2020 ), and anti-obesity ( Jung et al, 2016 ; Im et al, 2017 ; Ji et al, 2018 ) properties, both in vitro and in vivo ( Figure1 ).…”
