“…These bioactive compounds act synergistically in their therapeutic effects, such as reducing blood glucose levels, anticancer, antibacterial, antifungal, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory properties, and modulating the immune system ( Madi et al, 2016 ; Tiloke et al, 2018 ). MO leaves are high in polyphenols and rich in simple sugars, rhamnose, and glucosinolates and isothiocyanates ( El-Massry et al, 2013 ). Meanwhile, MO seeds contain flavonoids ( El-Massry et al, 2013 ) and known contain components that have hepatoprotectant activity, namely, gastrodigenin rhamnopyranoside (1-[O-(4-hydroxymethylphenyl)]-α-L-rhamno-pyranoside, GR) ( Li et al, 2019 ; Sun et al, 2019 ).…”

The Potency of Moringa oleifera Lam. as Protective Agent in Cardiac Damage and Vascular Dysfunction

Cardiac damage and vascular dysfunction due to underlying diseases, such as hypertension and cardiac thrombosis, or side effects from certain drugs may lead to critical illness conditions and even death. The phytochemical compounds in natural products are being prospected to protect the heart and vascular system from further damage. Moringa genus is a subtropical tree native to Asia and Africa, which includes 13 species; Moringa oleifera Lam. (MO) is the most cultivated for its beneficial uses. MO is also known as the “miracle tree” because it has been used traditionally as a food source and medicine to treat various diseases such as anemia, diabetes, and infectious or cardiovascular diseases. The phytochemical compounds identified in MO with functional activities associated with cardiovascular diseases are N,α-L-rhamnopyranosyl vincosamide, isoquercetin, quercetin, quercetrin, and isothiocyanate. This study aims to investigate the potency of the phytochemical compounds in MO as a protective agent to cardiac damage and vascular dysfunction in the cardiovascular disease model. This is a scoping review by studying publications from the reputed database that assessed the functional activities of MO, which contribute to the improvement of cardiac and vascular dysfunctions. Studies show that the phytochemical compounds, for example, N,α-L-rhamnopyranosyl vincosamide and quercetin, have the molecular function of antioxidant, anti-inflammation, and anti-apoptosis. These lead to improving cardiac contractility and protecting cardiac structural integrity from damage. These compounds also act as natural vasorelaxants and endothelium protective agents. Most of the studies were conducted on in vivo studies; therefore, further studies should be applied in a clinical setting.

Background. Moringa oleifera Lam. It is a species native to India with an excellent capacity for acclimatization and is distributed in tropical, subtropical, and semi-arid climates. This plant is of economic importance due to its nutritional content and uses food, forage, medicinal and industrial. All plant parts can be used, but the leaves are characterized by their high nutritional content and low antinutritional compounds. Significant variation in the nutritional content of the leaves has been identified, and, therefore, a generalization or recommendation about their nutritional content is impossible. Objective. To identify the environmental and management factors that influence the nutritional content of M. oleifera leaves. Methodology. A bibliographic review on M. oleifera present in the databases of Scopus, NCBI, Science direct, and other repositories was carried out. The keywords for the search were: M. oleifera, chemical composition, nutritional content, environmental factors, phenology, agronomic management, postharvest management, type of dehydration, and methods of analysis. Results. The results obtained show that genetic, edaphoclimatic, agronomic, phenological factors, postharvest handling, type of dehydration, storage before and after dehydration, and type of analysis influence the nutritional content of moringa leaves. Implications. Identifying the factors and processes that affect the nutritional content allows a better understanding of the chemical content of moringa leaves under specific conditions. Conclusions. Fertilization is the factor that most influences the protein content when agronomic management is carried out. Temperature and dehydration type are the factors that showed the most significant influence on the decrease in the nutritional content of the leaves in postharvest management.

“…Moringa flowers are used for ulcer treatment and have displayed anti-inflammatory activity. Moringa pods have been reported to exhibit antioxidant and antiinflammatory activities [2][3][4][5][6]. As a result, moringa are traditionally used for health prevention of chronic diseases, as well as managing associated symptoms, thus making them attributable to functional food species [7][8][9].…”

Background: Moringa oleifera pods are the main constituent in typical diets throughout Thailand. Due to their nutrients and phytochemicals, moringa pods have potential as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. Freeze drying is a widely embraced method known for extending shelf life, resulting in preserved nutrients and high-quality products. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the physical properties, nutrients, and bioactive compounds of freeze-dried moringa pods as well as their anti-inflammatory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced Raw 264.7 macrophages. Methods: Moringa pods were freeze-dried and ground. The powders were extracted with 70% ethanol at room temperature for 24 hr. and then centrifuged at 5000 rpm and 25áµ’C. The supernatant-filtered extracts were collected to determine bioactive compound contents and antioxidant as well as anti-inflammatory properties. Results: The results illustrated that freeze-dried moringa pod extract had bioactive compounds including genistein synthetic, trans-ferulic acid, p-Coumaric, myricetin, gallic acid, and syringic acid, which demonstrated antioxidant activity. In terms of anti-inflammatory effects, 50-200 Âµg/ml of extract inhibited pro-inflammatory mediators including NO production and IL-6 and TNF-Î± levels on LPS-induced Raw 264.7 macrophages. Results: These results indicate that the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of freeze-dried moringa pods make them a promising new raw material for functional product development. Keywords: Anti-inflammation, Moringa oleifera, genistein synthetic, trans-ferulic acid, p-Coumaric, myricetin, gallic acid, syringic acid.
