Abstract
Background:
Phytochemicals belonging to the class of flavonoids have been used in medicine
for the treatment of different kinds of human health complications. Flavonoids have beneficial
health aspects in medicine mainly due to their anti-microbial, anti-diabetic, anti-inflammatory, anticancer,
and anti-carcinogenic activities. They have been scientifically investigated for their health benefit
and pharmacological activities in medicine. Engeletin is a pure flavanonol class phytocompound
present in the skin of white grapes and white wine. Engeletin has numerous pharmacological activities
in medicine.
Methods:
In order to know the beneficial health aspects of engeletin in medicine, scientific data on
engeletin have been collected from different literature sources and analyzed in the present work. The
present work summarized the important findings of engeletin with respect to its medicinal uses, pharmacological
activities, and analytical aspects in medicine. All the scientific data were collected from
PubMed, Google, Scopus, Science Direct and Google Scholar and analyzed in the present work.
Results:
Scientific data analysis of research works revealed the biological importance and therapeutic
benefit of engeletin in medicine. Engeletin has attracted scientific attention mainly due to its antiinflammatory
and anti-tumor potential. Engeletin could inhibit the occurrence of cervical cancer and
delay the development of liver damage and lung cancer in mice. Engeletin was found to inhibit lipopolysaccharides-
induced endometritis in mice by inhibiting the inflammatory response. Pharmacological
data analysis revealed the therapeutic importance of engeletin against acute lung injury, inflammatory
diseases, liver injury, pulmonary fibrogenesis, Alzheimer’s disease, endometritis, cervical carcinogenesis,
lung cancer, and osteoarthritis. Analytical data signified the importance of modern analytical
tools for separating, isolating, and identifying engeletin.
Conclusion:
Scientific data analysis revealed the biological importance and therapeutic benefit of
engeletin in medicine and other allied health sectors.
