“…However, in contrast to the data from the PCA, K. angustifolia and K. parviflora were separated in different groups, but K. elegans and K. parviflora were grouped together. In another recent study, based on the DNA and morphological characteristics [84], K. angustifolia and K. parviflora were grouped together in agreement with the chemical variation of the present study.…”

Background: Plants belonging to the genus Kaempferia (family: Zingiberaceae) are distributed in Asia, especially in the southeast region, and Thailand. They have been widely used in traditional medicines to cure metabolic disorders, inflammation, urinary tract infections, fevers, coughs, hypertension, erectile dysfunction, abdominal and gastrointestinal ailments, asthma, wounds, rheumatism, epilepsy, and skin diseases. Objective: Herein, we reported a comprehensive review, including the traditional applications, biological and pharmacological advances, and phytochemical constituents of Kaempheria species from 1972 up to early 2019. Materials and methods: All the information and reported studies concerning Kaempheria plants were summarized from library and digital databases (e.g., Google Scholar, Sci-finder, PubMed, Springer, Elsevier, MDPI, Web of Science, etc.). The correlation between the Kaempheria species was evaluated via principal component analysis (PCA) and agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC), based on the main chemical classes of compounds. Results: Approximately 141 chemical constituents have been isolated and reported from Kaempferia species, such as isopimarane, abietane, labdane and clerodane diterpenoids, flavonoids, phenolic acids, phenyl-heptanoids, curcuminoids, tetrahydropyrano-phenolic, and steroids. A probable biosynthesis pathway for the isopimaradiene skeleton is illustrated. In addition, 15 main documented components of volatile oils of Kaempheria were summarized. Biological activities including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticholinesterase, antioxidant, anti-obesity-induced dermatopathy, wound healing, neuroprotective, anti-allergenic, and anti-nociceptive were demonstrated. Conclusions: Up to date, significant advances in phytochemical and pharmacological studies of different Kaempheria species have been witnessed. So, the traditional uses of these plants have been clarified via modern in vitro and in vivo biological studies. In addition, these traditional uses and reported biological results could be correlated via the chemical characterization of these plants. All these data will support the biologists in the elucidation of the biological mechanisms of these plants.

“…Kaempferia galanga L. is widely used by the community as an ethnomedicine (Labrooy et al 2018). Curcuma xanthorrhiza is used traditionally to treat liver damage, hypertension, diabetes, and cancer (Salleh et al 2016).…”

Abstract. Julung H, Supiandi MI, Ege B, Zubaidah S, Mahanal S. 2023. Ethnobotany of medicinal plants in the Dayak Linoh Tribe in Sintang District, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 24: 767-775. The Linoh Dayak people have long used medicinal plants to deal with health problems in their community. However, along with the advancement of science, the influx of foreign cultures and the degradation of nature and the environment, traditional knowledge about medicinal plants is only owned by the older generation, and the transmission of information is limited by word of mouth and not well documented. This study aimed to document various medicinal plants used by the Dayak Linoh people. The research used a qualitative approach using field surveys. Informants were selected using the purposive sampling method. The informants interviewed consisted of customary leaders (key informants), village heads (main informants), and recommended informants, such as traditional birth attendants (village midwives), hamlet heads, and community members who know medicinal plants. Medicinal plant data were obtained through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation related to the local names of the plants, the parts used, and how to manage and use them. Data analysis was carried out in a qualitative descriptive manner. The results showed that 55 species of medicinal plants consisting of 34 plant families were used by the Dayak Linoh tribe. The most widely used part of the plant is the leaf (39, 71%). People in the community boiled the leaves and drank the extract. The most used families in the three tribal communities of the Dayak Linoh tribe, were Zingiberaceae (9 species) and Myrtaceae (3 species). The plant parts used by the Dayak Linoh tribe were root, tuber, rhizome, stem, bark, banana heart, fruit, fruit skin, leaf, and seed. The Dayak Linoh tribe used medicinal plants to treat boil (7 plants) and for postpartum stamina recovery (7 plants). The communities processed and used the medicinal herbs conventionally by boiling and drinking.

“…Chen et al (2011) reported that C. zedoaria could be used for traditional herbs because it presents antiangiogenic activity capable of suppressing the growth of melanoma and lung metastasis. Labrooy et al (2018) mentioned that K. galanga is widely used as ethnomedicinal. John et al (2021) reported that Z. officinale plays a role in reducing some types of cancer, diabetes, and blood pressure because it has antiinflammatory properties.…”

Abstract. Supiandi MI, Ege B, Julung H, Zubaidah S, Mahanal S. 2021. Ethnobotany of traditional medicine in Dayak Jangkang Tribe, Sanggau District, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 22: 5417-5424. The Dayak Jangkang tribe has local knowledge about the use of medicinal plants that have been going on for a long time. Unfortunately, the local knowledge of the Dayak Jangkang tribe is currently threatened to disappear because it is delivered orally; there are no written documents and a wasteful lifestyle. The study aimed to document traditional medicinal plants that are utilized by the Dayak Jangkang tribe. The research approach used was qualitative descriptive using the field survey. The study interviewed three informants categories, i.e., the main informant (one customary chairman), key informant (one village head), and recommended informant (eight people who were knowledgeable about medicinal plants). The data were obtained through in-depth interviews and participatory observations. Data analysis used qualitative descriptive. The study got 40 plants that are used for traditional medicine with Zingiberaceae as the most used family. The parts of plants used by the Dayak Jangkang tribe for treatments were roots, bulbs, rhizomes, stems, bark, banana hump, fruit, fruit skins, leaves, fruit, and seeds. The mode of preparation is still considered simple.
