Description

Ortiz-Mendoza and co-authors review active compounds in Mexican Salvia plants, a group rich in folk medicine use. Salvia is the most diverse plant genus in Mexico, with about 310 species spread across the country. Many species serve in traditional care for a range of illnesses.

Yet the main chemical players behind those uses are poorly described. The review focuses on diterpenes, a compound class with abietane and clerodane skeletons found in these plants. It maps which species hold which compounds and what activity tests show. The survey gives drug hunters a clearer start for testing Mexican sage chemistry.
