A Systematic Review of the Wound-Healing Effects of Monoterpenes and Iridoid Derivatives

, 2014
The search for more effective and lower cost therapeutic approaches for wound healing remains a challenge for modern medicine. In the search for new therapeutic options, plants and their metabolites are a great source of novel biomolecules.

Effects of Pistacia lentiscus Leaf‐Twig and Resin (Mastic) Oils on Salivary Flow in Healthy Individuals

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Pistacia lentiscus L. tree is known for its aromatic mastic gum containing terpenes α‐pinene and β‐myrcene, and has been applied as a traditional remedy in oral care for centuries. Previously, intranasal exposure to mastic resin volatiles increased salivary flow in healthy and dry‐mouth individuals. This study assessed the biological

Oral Ulcerations and Phytotherapy: Potential Role of Helichrysum Essential Oil—A Literature Review

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a common yet therapeutically challenging chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa, characterized by recurrent, painful ulcerations that substantially affect patients' quality of life. Objective This review summarizes current evidence on phytotherapy in RAS, with particular focus on the ...

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

MONOREG – an expert system for structural elucidation of monoterpenes

, 2001
This paper describes a new expert system denominated MONOREG for structural determination of monoterpenes. This system is composed of five programs capable of performing 13C NMR spectra data analyses and analyses of systematic data from living organisms.

Induced Volatile Chemistry and Arthropod Predation Across a Tree Diversity Gradient

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play a key role in defence against herbivores and in mediating multitrophic interactions. Yet, how surrounding plant diversity modulates these responses in forest trees remains poorly understood. We examined the effects of tree species richness on induced VOC emissions and arthropod predation in Quercus ...

BIOACTIVE MONOTERPENES FROM ANTARCTIC PLOCAMIUM CARTILAGINEUM

, 2013
In a chemical analysis of the red seaweed Plocamium cartilagineum collected in Antarctic Peninsula, four polyhalogenated monoterpenes were isolated. Their structures were established by spectroscopic techniques.

Hydroxycinnamic Acid Amides Emerge as Multifunctional Molecules Involved in Regeneration and Volatile Signalling During Wound Responses

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCAAs) are phenylpropanoid‐derived metabolites traditionally associated with antimicrobial defence and cell wall reinforcement during plant–pathogen interactions. However, their contribution to plant responses to mechanical injury, particularly in wound healing and damage‐induced signalling, remains poorly ...
