Anti‐Inflammatory Potential of Compounds Isolated from Tunisian Lichens Species
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 19, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022 Abstract The lichen's special symbiotic structure enables it to produce bioactive substances. They have historically been recognized for their aesthetic and medicinal benefits. Furthermore, in recent years, they have performed in various fields, including perfumery, dyeing, and pharmacology due to their rich secondary metabolites.

Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Introduction. Lichens, due to the presence of own secondary metabolites such as depsidones and depsides, became a promising source of health‐promoting organisms with pharmacological activities. However, lichens and their active compounds have been much less studied.
