Wild carrot (L. ssp. carota) contains multiple bioactive compounds with potential antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties. While traditionally used for various therapeutic purposes, more research is needed to verify its additional applications and establish its safety and efficacy.
The compounds CA and RA have potent antioxidant properties and exhibit antitumor effects. CA induces cancer cell death and disrupts mitochondrial function, while RA induces apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation. Molecular docking analyses suggest these compounds may interact with the cancer-associated protein S100A8.
This review explores the extraction, separation, and identification of bioactive compounds from plant for potential use in skin diseases. Research gaps exist, but this weed plant has potential for skincare products, anti-inflammatory agents, and dermatological treatments.
