Chemical Composition of Essential Oils of Seven Polygonum Species from Turkey: A Chemotaxonomic Approach.

Summary

Aromatic plant genus Polygonum, used in various cuisines, was analyzed for chemical composition in the essential oils of seven species. The study found qualitative and quantitative differences among the species and identified major compounds, including (E)-β-farnesene, dodecanal, and β-caryophyllene. This is the most comprehensive study to determine essential oil components of Polygonum species, with new findings revealed. Medicinal plant use is prevalent and understanding the chemical makeup of these plants can inform treatment of various diseases.

Polygonum aviculare L. extract reduces fatigue by inhibiting neuroinflammation in restraint-stressed mice.

Summary

This study tested whether PAE could alleviate neuropsychological symptoms in chronic fatigue patients. They found that PAE treatment reduced pain and depression scores in the patients, and improved immune system functioning. The researchers suggest that PAE may be a potential new treatment option for chronic fatigue patients, but more research is needed to confirm these findings.
