Description

Raushanara Akter and nine co-authors gave a first chemical and activity profile in two thousand twenty-four of Lagerstroemia thorelli, an unstudied member of the loosestrife family. They tested its leaf extract in alcohol for antioxidant power, diabetes-related enzyme blocking, and toxicity to cells, and catalogued its compounds by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry.

The extract showed strong antioxidant and strong antidiabetic activity in the assays, with moderate killing of cervical cancer cells and low harm to normal cells. Eighty compounds were identified, including phytol, squalene, and sitosterol, many already known for such effects. Phenols, flavonoids, and tannins were abundant. The authors flag the plant for drug prospecting.
