Abstract:
Background: Plant products have been used for the treatment of numerous kinds of
human disorders since the very ancient age. Iridoid glycosides are secondary plant metabolites of
medicinal importance that have been well investigated in the scientific field for their role in plants.
Numerous iridoid class phytochemicals have cardiovascular, anti-viral, anti-hepatotoxic, anti-inflammatory,
anti-cancer, immunomodulatory, anti-spasmodic, hypolipidemic, choleretic, purgative,
and hypoglycaemic activity.
Methods: Here in the present work, we have collected scientific information on cornin and presented
it with respect to its medicinal importance and pharmacological activities with their analytical
aspects. Scientific information on cornin has been collected from numerous scientific databases
such as PubMed, Science Direct, Google, and Scopus to know the biological potential of
cornin in medicine. Further, pharmacological activity scientific data of cornin has been presented
in this work with proper citations.
Results: The scientific data of the present paper described the biological significance of cornin in
medicine. The further detailed pharmacological activity of cornin signified its therapeutic effectiveness
on cerebral ischemia, angiogenesis, autophagy, myocardial injury, cerebral injury, oxidative
injury, lipid peroxidation, proliferation, and cytochrome p450. Analytical data signified the
separation, isolation, and identification techniques of cornin in medicine.
Conclusion: The scientific information of the present work will be beneficial for all scientific
people to explore the therapeutic effectiveness of cornin in medicine.
