Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the biological properties and chemical profiles of chickweed extracts using various solvents and advanced techniques like UHPLC/MS/MS.
  • Twelve phenolic compounds, primarily flavonoids, were identified, with the water extract showing the best antioxidant capabilities and the ethyl acetate extract showing strong enzyme-inhibiting effects.
  • The findings suggest chickweed could be a valuable resource for developing products in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical sectors due to its significant cytotoxic effects and potential mechanisms of action against cancer-related targets.

This pharmaceutical ethnobotanical research was carried out in Taşköprü District in Kastamonu, in northern Anatolia. It assembles the elaborations of plants used as folk medicines, and the ethnopharmacological data collected in the course of in-person semi-structured interviews with an open-ended questionnaire. The study's aims were two-fold: gathering and identifying plants that the local inhabitants use therapeutically, and recording information related to traditional folk medicine (primarily for humans, and if extant for animals).

Background: In this investigation, the chemical and biological profiles of three Turkish Crataegus species (Crataegus orientalis, Crataegus szovitsii and Crataegus tanacetifolia) were studied in order to provide the first comprehensive characterization and their health-promoting potential. In this respect, polyphenolic profiles were evaluated using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The in vitro antioxidant activities of the Crataegus samples were evaluated by using free-radical scavenging, phosphomolybdenum, ferrous-ion chelating, and reducing power assays.
