| Abstract:
|
Syzygium cumini is one of the most commonly used medicinal plants. Syzygium cumini is also known as Jamun and belongs to the Myrtaceae family, or black plum or jambolan. We have highlighted the medicinal value of Syzygium cumini and the details on its chemical constituents in the current report. Syzygium cumini is rich in several phytoconstituents, such as tannins, alkaloids, hormones, flavonoids, terpenoids, fatty acids, phenols, minerals, vitamins, and carbohydrates. Scientific studies have shown that the different Jamun extracts have a wide variety of pharmacological components, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuropsychopharmacological, antifungal, antibacterial, antiviral, nitric oxide scavenging, anti-cancer, free radical scavenging, anti-diarrheal, anti-fertility, anorexigenic, gastroprotective, anti-ulcer and radioprotective, anti-hermitic and anti-ulcer activities. The presence of various phytochemicals (triterpenoids, resin, phytosterol, Phenolic material, anthocyanins, volatile oils, terpenes, flavonoids, tannins) in Syzygium cumini is fundamentally important for the treatment of various disorders and provides researchers with an eye-opener to discover the responsible compound mechanism.
