Antimicrobial Activity, Phenolic Content, and Cytotoxicity of Medicinal Plant Extracts Used for Treating Dermatological Diseases and Wound Healing in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

Medicinal plants used for wound healing and skin diseases are the key to unlocking the doors to combating problematic skin diseases as resistance of pathogens to pharmaceuticals and allopathic management continues to increase. The study aimed at investigating the antimicrobial efficacies, phenolic content, and cytotoxicity effects of 11 medicinal plant extracts commonly used for treating skin conditions and wound healing in traditional medicine within KwaZulu-Natal. Eleven plant species were separated into different plant parts (bulbs, roots, leaves) and extracted with different solvents. The

Plants with Potential Importance in Supporting the Treatment of Depression: Current Trends, and Research.

Depression is one of the most common diseases in the world, and it is also the most common mental disorder. Depressive disorders are a real threat not only to individuals, but also to the general population. This disease is a leading cause of disability and inability to work.

Seguridad y Precauciones

El uso de Hypericum aethiopicum requiere una vigilancia extrema debido a su potencial de interacciones bioquímicas complejas. En el caso de mujeres embarazadas o en periodo de lactancia, el uso de esta planta no se recomienda bajo ninguna circunstancia debido a la falta de estudios de seguridad clínica que garanticen que sus compuestos no atraviesen la barrera placentaria o se secreten en la leche materna. La exposición fetal o neonatal a compuestos bioactivos de plantas con actividad enzimática puede alterar el desarrollo fisiológico del infante. Asimismo, el uso en niños menores de 12 años debe evitarse estrictamente, ya que los sistemas metabólicos y de aclaramiento renal/hepático en etapas de crecimiento son altamente sensibles a la inducción enzimática y a la toxicidad sistémica, lo que podría interferir con procesos hormonales críticos. Respecto a las interacciones farmacológicas, aunque los datos específicos de H. aethiopicum son limitados, se debe extrapolar la precaución observada en especies del género Hypericum.
