THE ALKALOIDS: GENUS DAPHNIPHYLLAM (DAPHNIPHYLLACEAE)
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The genus Daphniphyllum comprised of about 30 species, distributed over Southeast Asia. Many plants of the genus used traditionally as folk medicine for the treatment of asthma, cough, rheumatism, inflammation, fever and snakebites. Over two hundred Daphniphyllum alkaloids have been isolated from the genus and many of these evaluated for their different biological activities. The aim of comprehensive review is to summarize all isolated alkaloids and their structure together with traditional and biological importance. In addition, the recent developments and the scope for future research in this field, is also discussed.
