Twenty species of Salvia, naturally grown or cultivated in Poland, are investigated by headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. The main components of the volatile fraction of Salvia species are identified as alpha-pinene, camphene, beta-pinene, thujol, camphor, beta-chamigrene, and cadina-3,9-diene. There are also the compounds that can be considered as chemotaxonomic markers, namely beta-myrcene for Salvia lavadulifolia, beta-phelandrene for Salvia verticillata, tau-terpinene for Salvia stepposa, and isocaryophyllene and caryophyllene for Salvia officinalis. Certain compounds (such as o-cymene present in Salvia canariensis and Salvia stepposa; beta-trans-ocymene present in Salvia lavadulifolia, Salvia sclarea, and Salvia amplexicaulis; thujenone present in Salvia staminea, Salvia atropatana, Salvia jurisicii, and Salvia officinalis; and thujone present in Salvia azurea, Salvia lavandulifolia, Salvia hians, and Salvia triloba) can constitute chemotaxonomic advice for the aforementioned species. Also, the lack of certain compounds otherwise common in the individual sage species can be considered as chemotaxonomic advice (e.g., Salvia sclarea has no alpha-pinene and beta-pinene; Salvia lavadulifolia lacks camphene; Salvia triloba lacks beta-pinene and camphene; and Salvia officinalis lacks beta-chamigrene, thujol, and cadina-3,9-diene).

Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is a common pathological manifestation of many cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, and sudden cardiac death. It is characterized by excessive proliferation and activation of fibroblasts, transformation into myofibroblasts, and, eventually, excessive deposition of the extracellular matrix, resulting in heart damage. Currently, modern drugs such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, diuretics, and β-blockers can improve myocardial fibrosis in clinical treatment, but their therapeutic effect on this disease is limited, with obvious side effects and high cost.

Tanshinol, an active ingredient extracted from the Salvia miltiorrhiza herb, is widely used in Chinese medicine or health supplements. Accurately and rapidly quantifying of tanshinol under near-neutral or neutral conditions is of great significance but still a significant challenge. Herein, a novel electrochemical sensor based on bimetallic FeCo phosphides (FeCoP) was developed for rapid and sensitive detection of tanshinol in near-neutral environments.

Nonunion is a significant complication in fracture management for surgeons. Salvianolic acid A (SAA), derived from the traditional Chinese plant Salviae miltiorrhizae Bunge (Danshen), exhibits notable anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Although studies have demonstrated its ability to promote osteogenic differentiation, the exact mechanism of action remains unclear.

Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge is an ornamental plant known for its diverse flower colors, ranging from white to dark violet. To elucidate the regulatory mechanisms underlying flower color, we conducted QTL mapping and identified candidate genes involved in anthocyanidin accumulation.
