Abstract:
Solanum torvum Swartz has been considered to shed light on the diverse phytochemical
and pharmacological abilities relevant to its profound health benefits. The present review attempted to emphasize the phytochemical and pharmacological investigations on Solanum torvum Swartz.
Furthermore, the investigators aimed to provid e an elaborative outline regarding the tissue culture
studies of the mentioned plant. This plant has been reported to contain various types of phytoconstituents, including alkaloids, alkaloid glycosides, allenes, coumarins, diterpenoids, fatty
acid esters, fatty acids, flavonoids, isoflavones, furan derivatives, glycosides, lignans, monoterpenoids, phenolic acids, sesquiterpenoids, saponins, steroidal derivatives, and triterpenoids.
An array of pharmacological activities has been reported for this plant, including hypotensive, antiplatelet aggregation, anti-ulcerogenic, antimicrobial, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant,
immunomodulatory, wound healing, antiparasitic, larvicidal, antimalarial, anti-trichomonal, leishmanicidal, anticancer, diuretic, anxiolytic, antidepressant, antidiabetic, anthelmintic, thrombolytic,
antiarthritic, antihyperlipidemic, hepato-protective, anti-Alzheimer, and cardioprotective activities. This work provides researchers with up-to-date information on the health benefits of plants
attributed to their bioactive compounds. The information highlights the need for further research to develop novel formulations using these bioactive principles for potential treatment and preventive
medicine applications targeting various ailments.
