1. Introduction

According to the eminent scholar, philosopher, and physician Avicenna, “the doctor has three tools: the word, the plant, the knife.” The plant kingdom is recognized as humanity’s earliest and most ancient healing source, employed for the management and prevention of illnesses.
Tracing back through history, the most ancient documented proof of plants’ utilization in medicine dates back to a Sumerian clay slab discovered in Nagpur roughly 5000 years ago. This artifact included a compilation of twelve medicinal recipes that involved over 250 diverse plant species. Sumerian healers extracted powders and infusions from plant roots and stems, while also crediting healing properties to pears and figs. Additionally, they utilized dried and ground young shoots of willow and plum trees, pine and fir needles as a component in compresses and poultices. Often, powders from animal and mineral sources were blended with those extracted from dried and crushed plants. Notably, in addition to water, wine and beer served as solvents. Thus, at least 80 centuries ago, people utilized the most uncomplicated medicinal plant-based preparations for treatment [1].
The “Pen T’Sao,” an ancient Chinese text on roots and herbs, authored by Emperor Shen Nung approximately 2500 BC, contains descriptions of 900 medicaments (comprising dried components of medicinal plants). Several of these substances are still in use today, including Rhei rhisoma, camphor, Theae folium, Podophyllum, great yellow gentian, ginseng, datura, cinnamon bark, and ephedra [2].
Regarding Kazakh folk medicine, an area that has yet to be fully explicated and substantiated, it can be stated that the traditional medicinal knowledge of the Kazakh people transcends the mere treatment of ailments and rests on robust theoretical underpinnings. Oteiboydak Tleukabyluly (1388-1478), an astute healer and prominent figure in Kazakh folk medicine during the 15th century, comprehensively explicated the secrets of the healing art in his medical and ethnographic work “Medical Narrative,” which he composed between 1466 and 1473 at the behest of az-Zhanibek Khan, who held him in high esteem as a great healer. This medical encyclopedia delineates the functions of various organs of the human body and provides a catalogue of the primary diseases associated with them. Furthermore, it includes a meticulous description of the methods used in traditional medicine at present, such as setting bones, listening to the pulse, and incantations. Through practical experimentation and experimentation conducted in the steppe laboratory, the healer formulated a total of 1,108 different medicinal compounds, of which 858 were derived from medicinal plants, 318 were extracted from animal organs, and roughly 60 were sourced from metals. The moniker “Teacher without a teacher” was bestowed on Oteiboydak Tleukabylov, who discovered methods for treating 1,050 different diseases [3].
At present, the employment of phytotherapy has gained widespread acceptance on a global scale. According to the World Health Organization’s (WHO) global review of national policies concerning traditional, complementary, and alternative medicine, as well as the regulation of herbal medicines, there is an evident growth in the European and Asian market for herbal medicines [4].
Kazakhstan boasts a natural flora of over 6,000 plant species [5]. The exact number of medicinal plant species present in Kazakhstan remains uncertain, as the list continues to expand annually. More than 150 plant species have been employed in both official and folk medicine for various ailments. This review focuses on a selection of medicinal plants growing within the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan that have traditionally been used to alleviate skin diseases. In conducting this study (2010-2023), emphasis was placed on the plants’ phytochemical composition, with a particular focus on the principal components responsible for their therapeutic effects against inflammatory skin conditions such as dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, and eczema.
Taraxacum officinaleWeb.Family – Compositae
Taraxacum officinale Web is a plant species commonly found in temperate climatic zones of Europe, Asia, and North America [6,7]. It can also be found in Kazakhstan, where it grows in various habitats such as wetlands, meadows, and roadsides, and occasionally in the steppes [8].
Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Web.) is a plant with a rich chemical composition. Its constituents include β-carotene [9], chicory acid [10], inulin [11], sesquiterpene lactones, and triterpene compounds [12], as well as flavonoids [13] and fatty acids [14]. Dandelion also contains a variety of vitamins (A, C, D, E, and B), inositol, lecithin, and minerals, such as iron, magnesium, sodium, calcium, silicon, copper, phosphorus, zinc, and manganese [15].
Тraditional medicine has documented the tonic and diuretic properties of Taraxacum officinale, as well as its anthelmintic, anti-inflammatory, and sedative effects. Dandelion has also been shown to regulate metabolic disorders and leukoformula deviations, and has been used in the treatment of hepatitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, mastitis (as a local compress), and anemia. These therapeutic effects are attributed to the various phytochemical compounds present in dandelion, including sesquiterpene lactones, triterpene compounds, flavonoids, fatty acids, and vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, C, D, E, and B, inositol, lecithin, and minerals like iron, magnesium, sodium, calcium, silicon, copper, phosphorus, zinc, and manganese [16,17,18,19].
Dandelion, being a versatile plant, has also found significant use in the field of dermatology owing to its potential in curing several skin diseases. Notably, Taraxacum officinale has been found to contain taraxasterol (1), a compound that exhibits therapeutic activity against melanoma [20].
Preprints 71645 i001
A mixture of sesquiterpene lactones present in dandelion has been found to exhibit therapeutic activity in the treatment of allergic and atopic dermatitis [21]. Additionally, the aqueous extract of dandelion has been observed to display high activity in inhibiting tyrosinase [22]. Dandelion extracts are commonly employed in the treatment of acne [23] and warts [24]. Furthermore, the ethyl acetate and n-butanol fractions of Taraxacum officinale Web. have exhibited anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties [25], the chloroform extract has been shown to possess anticancer properties [26], polyphenolic compounds in dandelion have been found to have antioxidant properties [27,28], while methanol and petroleum ether extracts have been found to have choleretic effect [29].
Symphytum officinale L. Borage family – Boraginaсeae
Symphytum officinale L., commonly known as comfrey, is distributed across the humid meadow and lakeside regions of Asia, Europe, and America, as supported by reference [30]. Its occurrence has also been recorded in the northwestern and eastern regions of Kazakhstan, as documented in reference [31].
Symphytum officinale L. contains various chemical compounds including phenolic compounds, flavonoids, fatty acids, polysaccharides, purine derivatives, and triterpenes [32,33,34,35].
In terms of ethnopharmacology, preparations made from the roots, leaves, or entire aerial parts of comfrey have been traditionally used since ancient times to treat various internal ailments such as respiratory, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary disorders, as well as external conditions such as bruises and tumors, through the administration of tinctures, infusions, decoctions, compresses, and ointments [36,37].
The literature indicates the potential therapeutic effects of Symphytum officinale L. The plant has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, antitumor, neuroprotective, and antioxidant properties [38]. Furthermore, comfrey has been shown to facilitate bone regeneration [39].
Allantoin (2) and rosmarinic acid (3), identified as active compounds in comfrey, exhibit significant skin healing properties and have been applied in the treatment of a range of skin conditions:
Preprints 71645 i002
Allantoin (2) has been reported to stimulate cell proliferation and tissue repair, making it a promising therapeutic agent for wound healing. Several studies have demonstrated that allantoin can accelerate the healing process of wounds, reduce inflammation, and increase skin moisture, thus exhibiting a rejuvenating effect [40,41,42]. On the other hand, rosmarinic acid (3) possesses antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties, which make it an effective treatment for various skin conditions, such as psoriasis, acne, and eczema. Studies have shown that rosmarinic acid can reduce oxidative stress and inhibit the production of inflammatory cytokines in the skin, leading to improved skin health [43]. Comfrey also contains tannins and pyrrolizidine alkaloids, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing effects [44,45].
Viscum album L. Family Beltflower – Lorantliaceae
Viscum album L., commonly known as white mistletoe, is an evergreen hemiparasitic plant that grows extensively in the Caucasus, Europe, and western and southern Asia [46,47].
Various chemical components have been identified in mistletoe through chemical studies, including viscotoxins (a mixture of amino acids), phenylpropanes, lignans, flavonoids, amines (viscalbin, norviscalbin, tyramine, β-phenylethylamine viscamine), α-viscol (β-amirin), β-viscol (lupeol), polysaccharides, lectins, fatty acids (oleic, linoleic, and palmitic acids), alcohols (pinit, inositol, quebrachite), resinous substances, and mineral salts [48,49,50,51]. Moreover, syringinin glycoside was detected in mistletoe bark [51]. Triterpene saponins (oleanolic and ursolic acids), vitamin C, carotene, vecerin, viscol, and choline derivatives (propionylcholine and acetylcholine) have also been found in this plant, the levels of which depend on the host tree on which the mistletoe grows, according to the authors of [52].
Viscum album L. has a rich ethnopharmacological history, with traditional uses including the treatment of various ailments such as epilepsy, anxiety, hypertension, internal bleeding, atherosclerosis, inflammation, and headaches. Additionally, it has been used as an antidote in some cultures [53,54].
Mistletoe-based preparations possess hypotensive and analgesic effects. For instance, a tincture of fresh mistletoe leaves, found in the “Akofit” preparation, is utilized to treat acute radiculitis [52]. The vasodilators “Omelen” and “Viskalen” are recommended for hypertension, while the liquid and dry extract “Reviscen” is useful for treating atherosclerosis, as it reduces blood pressure, dilates blood vessels, enhances cardiac activity, reduces nervous system excitability and intestinal atony, and acts as a hemostatic agent [55]. The active compound viscotoxin effectively combats cancer and inhibits its progression. The lectin present in mistletoe is a natural pesticide that hinders bacterial and parasitic infiltration into the body [56]. Additionally, Viscum album L. exhibits antioxidant [50], antitumor [54], antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiepileptic, and immunostimulatory activity, and is also employed to treat neurological disorders [57,58,59,60]. Preparations containing white mistletoe are utilized in obstetric and gynecological practice and are prescribed for colpitis and prolonged uterine bleeding [61,62].
Mistletoe has shown promise in the field of dermatology, where it has been employed to manage various cutaneous conditions such as dermatitis [63], age-related pigmentation [64], moles, acne, and papillomas [62], as well as psoriasis and rashes [65].
Juglans regia L. Walnut family – Juglandaceae
This plant has been observed to grow in various regions across the globe, including East Asia, Europe, North Africa, and South America [66]. Its growth has also been documented in southern Kazakhstan and it is recognized as a protected species within the boundaries of the Sairam-Ugam State National Natural Park [67].
The chemical composition of walnut kernels is of significant nutritional value, given their abundant presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids (comprising up to 75% of total content), proteins, amino acids, as well as vitamins E, C, β-carotene, and essential minerals such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, sulfur, and phosphorus [68]. Further, walnut kernels are known to contain trace elements such as iron, zinc, and copper, which play a vital role in various biochemical processes within the human body [69]. The plant is also rich in fluorine salts, while the kernel partition contains trace amounts of organic substances, tannins, glycosides, alkaloids, and iodine.
The chemical composition of walnut leaves is characterized by the presence of various biologically active components, including trace amounts of iodine, α- and β-hydrojuglone, polyphenols, tannins, glycosides, flavonoids, terpenoids, vitamin C, carotene, vitamin B1, essential oils, and tannins [70,71,72,73,74,75]. Among these, polyphenolic compounds are the most prominent, with various derivatives of chlorogenic and hydroxycinnamic acids being the major components [76].
In a study by [77], it was demonstrated that the methanolic extract derived from the leaves of Juglans regia L. encompasses a cumulative 40 metabolites classified under megastigmane, tetralone, phenylpropanoid, neolignan, and juglone glycosides.
In traditional medicine, diverse components of Juglans regia L. are utilized to manage several ailments such as diabetes, infectious diseases, and periodontal disease [78]. Furthermore, the plant is reputed to have antipyretic, analgesic, anti-dandruff, and burn-healing properties [79,80]. Notably, the extract of walnut shell has demonstrated notable antibacterial and antibiofilm properties against coagulase-negative staphylococci [81]. Additionally, the lyophilized extract of the walnut septum has been reported to exhibit a marked antitussive, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effect [82].
The leaves of Juglans regia L. are traditionally used to alleviate skin inflammation and excessive sweating of the hands and feet. Moreover, they are recommended for the treatment of acne, warts, eczema, and psoriasis due to the presence of flavonoids, specifically quercetin derivatives, and tannins [83,84,85]. The high concentration of α-tocopherol in the leaves of J. regia contributes to its antioxidant effect, which promotes the repair of damaged skin and strengthens the epidermal layer [86].
Solanum dulcamara L. Solanaceae family – Solonaceae
Solanum dulcamara L. exhibits a wide distribution across all continents except Antarctica, with the highest concentration found in tropical and subtropical regions of Australia, Africa, and select areas of Asia, including China, India, and Japan, as well as Central and South America [87]. Notably, the plant is found ubiquitously throughout Kazakhstan.
S. dulcamara is known to contain various bioactive phytocomponents, including steroidal saponins, terpenes, flavonoids, carbohydrates (such as glucose, galactose, xylose, and rhamnose), lipids (specifically cholesterol), steroidal sapogenins (such as diosgenin, tigogenin, and yamogenin), and pigments (such as lycopene and lycoxanthin) [88]. Notably, steroid alkaloids and glycoalkaloids are the primary chemical markers for this plant genus [87]. Additionally, S. dulcamara has been found to contain steroidal alkaloids, including solanine (4) in immature fruits, solasodine in flowers, and β-solamarin in roots [89,90].
Preprints 71645 i003
S. dulcamara stems have been traditionally employed in folk medicine as a narcotic agent and as a remedy for conditions such as rheumatism, migraine, and severe inflammation [91].
An ethyl acetate extract obtained from the ripe fruits of S. dulcamara demonstrates significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity [92]. Moreover, S. dulcamara is reputed to possess a variety of therapeutic properties, including antimicrobial, analgesic, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, antitumor, and neurogenetic effects [93], as well as antioxidant [92], antihyperglycemic [94], antibacterial, and antimicrobial activity [95,96], and antirheumatic activity [97]. The aerial part of S. dulcamara is particularly rich in alkaloids, which contribute to its antibacterial activity against Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and S. aureus.
S. dulcamara is a known remedy for the treatment of skin diseases and warts [98]. This plant is particularly rich in the alkaloid solanine, which is abundant in its immature fruits and has been traditionally used in Kenya to treat skin mycotic infections and other pathological conditions [99]. Saponins isolated from S. dulcamara possess remarkable antioxidant activity, as they are capable of absorbing free radicals. Due to their beneficial properties, saponins are often utilized in cosmetology, where they improve the rheological and foaming properties of body wash formulations, while reducing the risk of skin irritation [100]. The antioxidant properties of S. dulcamara are attributed to the presence of various phenolic compounds, flavonoids, anthocyanins, carotenoids - lycophyll (5), as well as hydroxy- and methoxy derivatives of coumarins [101].
Preprints 71645 i004
Through non-targeted LC/MS analysis, a comprehensive list of 83 metabolites has been identified in S. dulcamara fruit extracts, including 22 polyphenolic compounds comprising of 19 phenolic acid derivatives and 3 flavonoids (namely quercetin-3-O-rutinoside and kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside), 10 amides, 16 saponins, 14 steroid alkaloids, 6 lignans, and 15 other compounds [102]. Notably, the phenolic acids in these extracts are mainly composed of chlorogenic acid (6), caffeic acid and p-coumaric acid:
Preprints 71645 i005
An investigation into the metabolites present in S. dulcamara found that unripe fruits contained a higher concentration of γ-solamarin, α-solazonin, α-solanine, abutiloside H, and solanandaine compared to ripe fruits. Moreover, methanol fruit extracts were found to exhibit significant potential in eliminating DPPH and hydroxyl radicals. Interestingly, the ability of methanol extracts to remove DPPH was found to be tissue-specific, with the outer tissue (skin) of the bittersweet fruits showing a higher antioxidant activity than the inner tissues (pulp and seeds), possibly due to the higher phenol content in the peel [102].
Pastinaca sativa L. Seler family – Apiaceae
Parsnip (Pastinaca sativa L.) is a plant species that is indigenous to Europe and Asia [103], and is also found growing in South Kazakhstan [104].
The root of parsnip is a rich source of numerous bioactive compounds, including coumarins, furanocoumarins, polyacetylenes, essential oils, terpenes, and flavonoids [103]. Additionally, parsnip root is a rich source of various minerals such as potassium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, and iron, as well as carotene, starch, pectin, vitamins, and sugars [105].
Parsnip has been employed in traditional medicine since antiquity. Avicenna’s Canon recommends its topical and oral use to alleviate headache, stomatitis, ophthalmitis, dermatitis, and fever [103].
In 986 AD, the therapeutic use of plants containing furanocoumarins was documented for the treatment of skin conditions such as leprosy and vitiligo [106]. To date, furanocoumarins continue to be utilized for the treatment of certain dermatological conditions. Recent investigations have revealed that heraclenol (7) and oxypeucedanine hydrate (8) elicit a mild stimulatory effect on melanogenesis without affecting cell proliferation, as evidenced by studies examining the effect of furanocoumarins on the skin [103]. Moreover, furanocoumarins have been employed in the treatment of vitiligo and psoriasis [107].
Preprints 71645 i006
Numerous studies have demonstrated the pharmacological effects of P. sativa on various bodily systems, including the central nervous, respiratory, gastrointestinal, hepatic, skin, cardiovascular, and genitourinary systems [103], as well as its potential in mitigating stroke, atherosclerosis, and other coronary heart diseases. Additionally, P. sativa has been shown to have positive effects on cholecystitis, constipation, anorexia, stomach pain, bladder atony, spastic enterocolitis, mild insomnia, nephritis, dysuria, renal colic, endocrine disorders such as menstrual syndrome, rheumatism, vitamin deficiency, obesity, vascular diseases, infections, loss of appetite, dysmenorrhea, fever, atherosclerosis, detoxification, anemia, and diabetes [105]. Furthermore, furanocoumarins extracted from parsnips have the ability to dilate peripheral vessels and coronary vessels of the heart, eliminate spasms of the bronchi and smooth muscles of the abdominal cavity, and have a moderate sedative effect. In addition, P. sativa exhibits antioxidant and anticytolytic activities [108].
The dried seeds of P. sativa were subjected to steam distillation to isolate its essential oil, which was found to contain octyl acetate (78.49%) and octylhexanoate (6.68%) as its major constituents. Remarkably, this essential oil exhibited significant antioxidant activity [109].
Capsella bursa pastoris L. Cabbage family – Brassicaceae
Capsella bursa-pastoris L. is a wild plant with significant nutritional value that is fit for human consumption. This plant is widely distributed across many countries, including Cyprus, Europe, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Pakistan, India, Iraq, Iran, China, Azerbaijan, and other Asian countries [110]. It is also commonly found in various regions of Kazakhstan.
Capsella bursa-pastoris L. contains a diverse range of chemical components including flavonoids, polypeptides, choline, acetylcholine, histamine, tyramine, fatty acids, sterols, organic acids, amino acids, sulforaphane, vitamins [111], and various trace elements. In addition, it contains phenolic compounds, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, alkaloids, and phytosterols [110,112,113,114], as well as volatile fractions consisting mainly of terpenoids, alkane hydrocarbons (such as nonacosane), and fatty acids (including palmitic and linoleic acids) [115].
In traditional medicine, Capsella bursa-pastoris L. has been used for centuries in China and Japan as a hemostatic, diuretic, and antipyretic agent [111]. The plant has been utilized for the treatment of conditions such as edema caused by nephritis, odynuria, hemaffetia, menorrhagia, chyluria, and hypertension [116]. The entire plant is used to make tea, which has been used as an antiscorbutic, astringent, diuretic, emmenagogue, hemostatic, hypotensive, tonic, stimulant, vasoconstrictor, and wound healing agent. This beverage has also been considered an excellent remedy for various types of bleeding, including those originating from the stomach, lungs, uterus, and kidneys. A homeopathic remedy for nosebleeds and urolithiasis is prepared from fresh Capsella bursa-pastoris L. plant [111].
Based on the literature, it has been reported that raw plant extracts and certain phytocomponents exhibit various pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, antimicrobial, hepatoprotective, cardiovascular, anticancer, sedative, and antioxidant effects [110,113,117,118,119,120]. Furthermore, it has been suggested that these extracts possess infertility-reducing properties [121]. Extracts have also demonstrated inhibitory effects on acetylcholinesterase activity and significant antibacterial activity [113].
Capsella bursa-pastoris L. displays potent antioxidant activity attributed to its flavonoid compounds, namely quercetin, chrysoeriol, kaempferol, and isorhamnetin. In vitro studies have shown that its extracts possess antioxidant activity against various free radicals such as DPPH radicals, peroxyl radicals, hydroxyl radicals, and hydrogen peroxide [122]. Additionally, the plant extract has been found to have cytotoxic effects as reported by previous studies [112]. Furthermore, a moderate hepatoprotective activity has been observed with the extract containing specific flavonoids, including 4,7-dihydroxy-5-hydroxymethyl-6,8-diprenylflavonoid, chrysoeriol-7-O-d-glucopyranoside, sinensetin, and 6,8-diprenylgalangin [123].
Capsella bursa-pastoris L. has exhibited noteworthy efficacy in the treatment of eczema in dermatology [124]. Moreover, preparations derived from Capsella bursa-pastoris L. have been registered and recommended by the German Institute for Pharmaceuticals and Medicines for the adjunctive treatment of skin diseases and wounds [125].
Tanacetum vulgare L. Aster family – Asteraceae
Tanacetum vulgare L. is a widely recognized medicinal plant that is distributed across Northern Europe, North America, Russia, China, North Korea, Kazakhstan, and Japan [126,127].
T. vulgare is abundant in phenolic acids, flavonoids, and their derivatives [128]. The plant contains surface flavonoids, such as the methyl esters of flavones sutellarin and 6-hydroxyluteolin, as well as vacuolar flavonoids, including apigenin and luteolin 7-glucorinides. Additionally, it contains caffeic acid, glycosides, sterols such as β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, cholesterol, and campesterol, and triterpenes such as α-amirin, β-amirin, and taraxasterol [129].
In the traditional medicine of southeastern Serbia, T. vulgare flowers are commonly used to prepare tea with various therapeutic benefits such as antihelminthic, carminative, antispasmodic, abdominal organ stimulant, tonic, menstruation stimulant, antidiabetic, diuretic, and antihypertensive properties [130,131]. Apart from medicinal use, T. vulgare is also utilized in the production of balms, cosmetics, dyes, insecticides, drugs, and preservatives [132]. Furthermore, T. vulgare-based preparations have been used for the treatment of several conditions including hysteria, migraine, neuralgia, rheumatism, renal failure, and fever [129]. The same source highlights the antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory activity exhibited by T. vulgare.
The bioactive components of T. vulgare, including sesquiterpene lactones, volatile oils, flavonoids, and phenolic acids, have been found to possess antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, and antiulcer properties [131].
Taraxasterol (1) (see above), luteolin (9) and taraxic acid (a sesquiterpene lactone) present in T. vulgare are responsible for its anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects, making it a potential treatment for skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis, eczema, and psoriasis [133,134,135].
Preprints 71645 i007
Inulin and chlorogenic acid (6) (see above) have demonstrated antioxidant, prebiotic, and anti-inflammatory effects, which suggest their potential use as a therapeutic approach for managing skin disorders like acne, rosacea, and photoaging [136,137,138].
Plantago major L. Family – Plantaginaceae
Plantago major L. (Plantain) is a widely recognized and extensively utilized medicinal plant. The genus Plantago L. comprises approximately 300 diverse species that flourish in temperate areas globally, including 16 plant species that occur in Kazakhstan [139,140]. In arid zones, P. major is comparatively scarce and is primarily found along riverbanks and in intensely irrigated crops.
Plantain is a botanical specimen that contains a diverse array of chemical constituents, including carbohydrates such as polysaccharides, pectic acid, mucus, mannitol, and sorbitol, lipids both saturated and unsaturated, nitrogen compounds like allantoin, essential and non-essential amino acids, caffeic acid derivatives, flavonoids including baicalein, scutellarein, luteolin, baicalin, apigenin, among others, phenolcarboxylic acids and their derivatives such as lilac, vanillic, ferulic, salicylic, benzoic, cinnamic, gentisic, chlorogenic, and neochlorogenic, iridoid glycosides like aucubin, catalpol, and aukubozid, terpenoids, alicyclic compounds like loliolid. Furthermore, the leaves of Plantain exhibit a significant concentration of phenols and their derivatives such as ferulic acid and tyrosol, tannins, and vitamin K. The seeds of Plantain contain organic acids like succinic acid, mucus, iridoids like aucubin, sterols such as β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, campesterol, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids like isoquercitrin, and fatty oil. These findings have been reported in numerous sources [141,142,143,144].
Plantain has been recognized for centuries as possessing therapeutic properties. Various parts of the plant, including mature seeds, leaves, and juice, are used for medicinal purposes. Plantain leaves have been employed in the treatment of numerous diseases, including digestive, reproductive, and circulatory ailments, as well as inflammatory skin disorders [145] and urogenital and infectious diseases [146]. Moreover, plantain has been utilized for pain relief and to reduce fever [147].
The specific therapeutic effects of psyllium are attributed to its phytochemical components. The mucus, enzymes, and phytoncides present in psyllium provide an enveloping and mucolytic effect that restores the protective function of the ciliated epithelium in the respiratory tract, leading to increased secretion of bronchial mucus and liquefaction of sputum for easy expectoration. The glycoside plantagin inhibits the cough reflex [148]. The anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of water extract from psyllium have been demonstrated by several studies [149,150]. Psyllium also possesses wound healing, antiulcer, antidiabetic, antidiarrheal, antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties [151]. A comprehensive overview of the medicinal properties and chemical components of psyllium published in journals between 1937 to 2015 was conducted and is available from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar [152]. A study on the antiviral activity of aqueous extract and pure compounds of Plantain revealed that while the aqueous extract of Plantain had negligible activity against the herpes virus, some pure compounds belonging to five different classes of chemicals found in the plant extracts exhibited potent antiviral activity. Among them, caffeic acid showed the highest activity against herpes simplex virus HSV-1, while chlorogenic acid had the strongest activity against adenovirus ADV-11. Recent pharmacological studies have reported a range of biological activities of Plantain extracts, including immunomodulatory, antioxidant, lipid-lowering, hypoglycemic, intestinal function, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and anti-complementary activities [139].
According to the authors of a recent study [148], the hemostatic properties of Plantain can be attributed to its high content of vitamin K, which, along with tannins, facilitates blood clotting. Additionally, the plant’s anti-inflammatory, wound-healing, and ulcer-healing effects are linked to the presence of polysaccharides, pectin, tannins, benzoic acid, and salicylic acid. Plantain is also used in cosmetic dermatology to treat acne scars [137]. Polysaccharides stimulate the formation of interferon, while zinc and flavonoids aid in the normalization of phagocytosis. The combination of polysaccharides with enzymes and vitamins promotes regeneration. Organic and phenol carboxylic acids, flavonoids (such as derivatives of luteol quercetin and apigenin), ascorbic acid, copper, and zinc provide a pronounced antihypoxic effect. Plantain also regulates digestion and increases appetite, with iridoid glycosides such as aucubin and catalpol, as well as bitterness, stimulating glandular secretion. Furthermore, leaf extracts have sedative and hypotensive effects, while saponins, hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonoids, and pectin substances help to reduce blood cholesterol levels.
Plantain is prescribed in various forms, including roasted seeds, decoction, syrup, ointment, rinse, rectal enema, vaginal suppositories, eye and nasal drops, depending on the disease being treated. Galenic preparations are commonly used to treat respiratory diseases, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and kidney disease, while Plantain preparations are applied externally to treat inflammation of the oral cavity and nasopharynx, wounds, bruises, burns, and furunculosis. They also serve as a bacteriostatic and wound healing agent. P. major extracts are known to have a sedative and hypotensive effect, and the fresh leaf juice is effective in treating corneal wounds. P. major leaf juice has been found to inhibit the growth of pathogenic staphylococcus at a dilution of 1:2, Escherichia coli at a ratio of 1:4, and to retard the growth of hemolytic streptococcus at a ratio of 1:2. Plantaglucid, a preparation containing a mixture of Plantain polysaccharides, is commonly used to treat hypoacid gastritis and gastric ulcer during exacerbation and to prevent relapses [153].

Cichorium intybus L. Aster family – Asteraceae
Cichorium intybus L., a perennial herbaceous plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, is known by various common names such as roadside grass, blue flower, roadside cornflower, bride of the sun, and sun grass. Its recognizable feature is the inflorescences-baskets that exclusively comprise reed blue flowers. However, the said baskets only open during early morning hours or in cloudy weather. The term “chicory” is derived from the Latin word, meaning “entering the fields.” Due to its therapeutic properties, this plant has earned the monikers “king root,” “golden root,” and “cure for a hundred diseases” [324].
C. intybus L. exhibits a wide geographical distribution encompassing Northern and Central Europe, Siberia, Turkey, Afghanistan, Northern and Central China, South America, South Africa, Ethiopia, Madagascar, India, Australia, and New Zealand. This herbaceous plant is capable of thriving throughout the territories of the Commonwealth of Independent States, with the exception of the Far North region [325].
The roots of C. intybus L. contain 56-65% inulin (in terms of dry matter), the maximum accumulation of which is observed in autumn. Intibin glycoside gives specific bitterness to chicory roots. Proteins, sugars, pectin, sesquiterpene lactones (germacranolides: lactucin, lactucopicrin and 8-deoxylactucin) were also found in the roots; guayanolides: cycriosides B and C, sonchuside C), tannins and resinous substances, choline, carotene, vitamins B, B2, PP and C, from mineral elements - sodium, potassium, calcium, manganese, phosphorus, iron. Chicory roots contain taraxasterol (1) (see above), phenolic acids (chlorogenic (6) (see above), isochlorogenic, neochlorogenic, caffeic and cicoric acids) [324,326]. In the flowers of Cichorium intybus L., chicory glycoside was found, in the seeds - inulin and protocatechin aldehyde [327,328], prebiotic fructooligosaccharides, sesquiterpene lactones, caffeic acid derivatives (chicory acid, chlorogenic acid, isochlorogenic acid, dicapheoyltartaric acid), proteins, hydroxycoumarins, flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, terpenoids, oils, volatile compounds, vitamins [329,330]. Aliphatic compounds and their derivatives make up the main fraction; terpenoids are somewhat less common in the plant. Chicory leaves contain inulin, vitamins A, B1, B2 and C, macro- and microelements (Ca, K, Mg, Na, Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn), phenolic compounds and others [325].
The aerial and subterranean portions of C. intybus L. are extensively employed in traditional medicine, such as in Chinese and Mongolian practices, as an agent for modulating the immune system, promoting bile secretion, protecting the liver, and reducing blood glucose levels. The plant is documented in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia and is utilized in the formulation of homeopathic remedies in Germany.

Additionally, chicory preparations have been shown to exhibit potential therapeutic benefits in managing obesity, liver diseases, atherosclerosis, hypoacid gastritis, tachycardia, arrhythmia, and nephritis. The milky juice of the plant contains bitter substances that have been found to stimulate peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract, increase the secretion of gastric and intestinal juice, and promote regular bowel movements and appetite. According to published literature, C. intybus L. has been found to possess a notable therapeutic effect in managing diabetes mellitus and in preventing it (antidiabetic effect). This effect is attributed to the presence of inulin, a natural sugar substitute that eliminates toxins and non-nutrient substances from the body. Preparations based on C. intybus L. exhibit diverse pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antiviral, choleretic, diuretic, hepatoprotective, and antibacterial effects, making them beneficial in treating colitis, gastritis, and enteritis. Decoctions of C. intybus L. roots have been reported to be effective in the treatment of helminthic invasion, anemia, malaria, scurvy, eczema, and tumors of the spleen [325,327,332,333,334,335,336,337]. Furthermore, some research indicates that C. intybus L. may modulate immune responses [329]. Infusions of C. intybus L. flowers have been found to possess antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, and nourishing properties, which are beneficial in treating inflammation of the skin and eyes [331].
A decoction of C. intybus L. is commonly used topically (in the form of baths, applications, and lotions) for the management of various skin diseases, including but not limited to eczema, urticaria, psoriasis, seboroid dermatitis, neurodermatitis, atopic dermatitis, vitiligo, acne, and furunculosis. Additionally, the herb is recognized for its efficacy in the care of dry skin [325,331].
Bidens tripartita L. Aster family – Asteraceae
Bidens tripartita L. is widely distributed in the European part of the CIS, Transcaucasia, Siberia, Central Asia (excluding Turkmenistan), and the southern region of the Far East. Its range also extends to North Africa and North America [338]. In Kazakhstan, this species is ubiquitous across its regions.
B. tripartita L. is a plant that is rich in various biologically active compounds, including essential oil, chlorophylls, flavonoids, cinnamic acid derivatives, tannins with a high polyphenol fraction content, polysaccharides, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, coumarins, chalcones, and minerals such as Zn, Sr, Se, and Mn.

The anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and antispasmodic effects of the alcohol extract of B. tripartita L. have also been confirmed [350,351]. Furthermore, the herb’s diethyl ether extract has been shown to possess antimicrobial and antifungal activity [339], which supports the herb’s traditional use in treating skin diseases and mucocutaneous candidiasis caused by these microorganisms. The methanolic extract of B. tripartita L. exhibits antioxidant activity against cancer cells and has the ability to inhibit key enzymes, such as α-amylase and α-glucosidase. In addition, evidence suggests that the herb has antidiabetic activity, as well as antihyperglycemic and antioxidant effects [352].
The broad pharmacological effects of the series plant are attributed to its abundant content of various biologically active substances. Manganese ions in the plant’s enzyme systems are believed to impact hematopoiesis, blood coagulation, endocrine gland activity, liver cell function, blood vessel and bile duct tone, and may prevent intravascular thrombus formation while enhancing the series’ antimicrobial properties [348,349]. Flavonoids in the plant are responsible for its antiallergic and diuretic effects by affecting metabolic processes. Tannins, which possess pronounced antimicrobial properties, are thought to be responsible for the plant’s antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. The presence of vitamin C can activate the function of the endocrine glands, improve metabolism, strengthen the immune system, and help treat viral infections. The essential oils present in the plant are effective in destroying pathogenic microflora and fungi, while zinc may improve appetite and digestion [346,347].
The extract derived from the sequence plant has been employed in the treatment of numerous skin conditions, including psoriasis, seborrhea, urticaria, diathesis, acne, pimples, wounds, and ulcers, as well as small cracks. This plant’s beneficial effects on the skin can be attributed to the presence of tannins, which can also aid in alleviating excessive sweating of the armpits and legs. Accordingly, the sequence is commonly used to prepare baths, lotions, and rubdowns for microbial eczema of the feet and epidermophytosis [342,346,347,353]. The mask derived from the sequence has been shown to eliminate oily sheen, tone the skin, and have a rejuvenating effect. Additionally, wiping the face with a decoction of the string has been demonstrated to reduce acne [348,349]. In cases of diathesis, the addition of a string infusion (from 10-30 g of grass) to a bath has been recommended [354].
The preparations derived from the tripartite series possess a range of pharmacological properties, including anti-inflammatory, sedative, desensitizing, and antibacterial effects. These preparations find applications in the treatment of various conditions, such as diathesis, gout, rickets, arthritis, acne, and boils. Though their use as a diuretic and diaphoretic is infrequent, the sequence has been experimentally found to lower blood pressure and slightly increase heart contraction amplitude. Furthermore, oil extracts from the herb are recommended for their tissue-regenerating effects on difficult-to-heal wounds. The sequence is also included in antiscrofulous collections [346,347].
Vaccinium myrtillus L. Cowberry family – Vacciniaceae
Vaccinium myrtillus L. is a plant species that is predominantly found in forested areas in Northern Europe and North America [355], as well as in Europe, Asia, and North America [356].

Blueberry leaves have been found to possess hypoglycemic effects, attributed to the presence of myrtilin glycoside which mimics insulin and regulates pancreatic function. However, prolonged use of the leaves is not recommended due to potential toxic effects of hydroquinone. Dried blueberries are known for their astringent properties while fresh blueberries are known to have carminative, anti-inflammatory, diuretic, hemostatic, antibiotic, and vitamin properties, and can regulate metabolism and digestive activity. In traditional medicine, blueberries have been used to treat various ailments such as bile duct and bladder stones, coughs, scurvy, and pulmonary tuberculosis. They have also been used to treat gastroenterocolitis and diarrhea, particularly in children. Due to their high content of vitamin C, blueberries have been used for the treatment of scurvy, and externally for stomatitis and pharyngitis, which are accompanied by oral cavity wounds and ulcers [363,364].
In traditional medicine, blueberry leaves have been utilized to treat a range of health conditions that are associated with oxidative stress, including skin conditions. The high antioxidant potential of blueberry seed oil, which contains chlorogenic acid, isoquercetin, and resveratrol, as well as α-linolenic, linoleic, and oleic acids, has been well established. Furthermore, a plant extract of isoquercetin has been found to have a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on edema caused by allergic contact dermatitis [355,365].

Celandine extracts have been found to possess a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, natriuretic, and antidiuretic effects, corroborating some of the traditional medicinal uses of C. majus Additionally, the plant has demonstrated immunomodulatory, lipid-lowering, and radioprotective properties [367,368,371,372]. Moreover, the ethanolic extract of C. majus has been found to contain biologically active secondary metabolites with significant inhibitory effects against Alzheimer’s disease [366].
The use of the milky juice of the celandine herb in folk medicine and homeopathy to treat viral warts has been documented for many years. This juice is rich in alkaloids, with chelidonin being the predominant compound (23). Studies have demonstrated the antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, cytostatic, and cytotoxic effects of celandine alkaloids, including their activity against keratinocytes. Compounds such as chelidonine (23), sanguinarine (24), chelerythrine, coptisine, and protopin have been found to exhibit cytotoxic activity. Sanguinarine (24) has been shown to be particularly effective at inhibiting keratinocyte growth, suggesting that celandine may have potential as an additional therapy for malignant skin diseases [370].
Rosa sinnamotea L. Rose family – Rosaceae
Rose hips have considerable economic importance and are widespread garden plants across Europe, Asia, North America, and the Middle East. The distribution of wild roses in diverse regions of Kazakhstan exhibits heterogeneity. In particular, a greater range of species diversity has been observed in forest and forest-steppe zones [373]. There is a total of 21 distinct species of wild rose that grow in Kazakhstan, with five of them being present in Central Kazakhstan, including R. glabrifolia, R. laxa Retz., R. Acicularis Lindl., R. majalis Herrm. (R. cinnamomea L.), and R. pimpinellifolia L. (R. spinosissima L.) [374].
The fruits of Rosa Canina are highly valued by the food and pharmaceutical industries due to their rich composition of biologically and physiologically active compounds. These include a wide range of vitamins (C, B, P, PP, E, K), flavonoids, carotenes, carbohydrates (mono- and oligosaccharides), organic acids (tartaric, citric), polyunsaturated fatty acids, trace elements, and others [375,376]. The essential oil derived from rosehips is primarily composed of alcohols, monoterpenes, and sesquiterpenes [377]. Dog rose seeds are also a valuable source of crude oil, comprising approximately 15% of their total weight. To extract oil from the seeds, various methods are employed such as pressing, solvent extraction, ultrasonic, microwave, sub- and supercritical fluid extraction. Rosehip oil is considered particularly valuable due to its essential fatty acid content, tocopherols, phytosterols (β-sitosterol), and phenols, which contribute to its functional properties. The primary essential fatty acids present in rosehip oil are linoleic, linolenic, and oleic acids, while the γ-tocopherol isomer of tocols is the most abundant in the oil. Among the numerous health benefits of rosehip oil, its anti-cancer effects are particularly noteworthy. Additionally, the therapeutic effect of rosehip oil on skin diseases makes it a preferred ingredient in cosmetics [378].
Rose hips have a well-established history in traditional medicine as a preventative and treatment measure for colds and other infections, as well as a diuretic and therapy for various inflammatory disorders. In modern medical practice, dog rose (Rosa Canina L.) is incorporated into compositions and complexes for the treatment of inflammatory ailments, including but not limited to rheumatoid arthritis, reactive arthritis, osteoarthritis, and other types of arthritis. It is also utilized to combat upper respiratory tract infections, for the management of psoriasis, and to prevent oxidative stress in the oral cavity, among other applications [375].
The distinctive phytochemical composition of rose hips has garnered significant interest as a promising source for functional foods, natural medicines, and cosmo-nutraceuticals. In present times, rose hips are employed as a constituent in probiotic products [377].
The rose hip extract’s antioxidant activity is predominantly attributable to its ascorbic acid and polyphenolic compounds. Moreover, the extract manifests antimutagenic and anticancer properties [376].
Rosa Canina L. finds common application in cosmetology, where it is frequently utilized in conjunction with other biologically active compounds or herbal extracts. However, there are instances where it is employed as a sole ingredient, such as in a French patent that employs an extract of dog rose as an active agent for combating seborrhea, along with a cosmetic skincare strategy aimed at mitigating excess sebum production and associated dermatological manifestations [375].
Orchis maculata L. Orchid family – Orchidaceae
Spotted orchis is indigenous to countries with a cold, temperate subtropical climate, particularly in Central and Southern Europe and Asia [379]. Its distribution within Kazakhstan is primarily concentrated in the East Kazakhstan region [380].
Spotted orchis comprises a mucilaginous substance that harbors a high molecular weight polysaccharide, which decomposes to manose; in addition to dextrin, starch, proteins, bitterness, pentoses, methylpentosans, sucrose, loroglossin glycoside, and essential oil [381,382,383,384]. Furthermore, the plant houses alkaloids, saponins, tannins, phenolic compounds (such as gallic acid, catechin, chlorogenic acid, and syringic acid), terpenes, sterols, flavonoids, and anthocyanins [385,386]. Orchis mascula flowers’ ethanol extracts also encompass saponins, flavonoids, anthraquinone, terpenoids, tannins, cyanogenic glycosides, and cardiac glycosides [387]. These extracts exhibited a noteworthy antimicrobial effect against Salmonella paratyphi, Klebsiella oxytoca, or Staphylococcus aureus.
Orchis maculata L. contains anthocyanins and phenolic acids, which are potent antioxidants and have a nourishing impact. These compounds have the ability to inhibit collagenase, an enzyme that degrades collagen in the skin and hair. Catechin, for instance, acts on collagen and makes it resilient against the action of collagenase. Catechin also forms a complex with collagen, modifying its structure and making it resistant to enzyme degradation. Flavonoids, in general, contribute to scalp elasticity and nutrition, strengthen blood vessel walls, and enhance blood flow. Furthermore, polyphenols exhibit antimicrobial properties, which makes them a valuable ingredient in formulations used to treat mycoses [388]. The spotted orchis extract has been demonstrated to possess anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, diuretic, enveloping, and immunomodulatory effects, as outlined in [381]. The enveloping effect can be attributed to the presence of loroglossin (25), a glycoside that protects inflamed tissues from excessive irritation [389].
Preprints 71645 i013
In dermatology, the oral use of Orchis maculata L. extract is prevalent in folk medicine for senile itching, skin tuberculosis, and other dermatoses accompanied by cachexia and chronic diseases of the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. The extract is also employed for the speedy healing of wounds and ulcers [382]. Additionally, cosmetic skincare products containing the extract and produced on an industrial scale are available [383].
Acorus calamus L. Aroid family – Araseae
Calamus marsh is a perennial plant containing aromatic compounds and is widespread in Central Asia, India, and the Himalayas. Although its distribution has significantly decreased in Europe, it remains a common plant in the northern marshy regions with a temperate climate [390]. It is found in Asia, Europe, and North America and is known to grow in Central Kazakhstan along the banks of rivers, swamps, and lakes, sometimes forming substantial thickets.
Calamus marsh is rich in various chemical compounds, including bitter glycoside acorin, essential oil (which contains proazulene), gum, resins, ascorbic acid, tannins, starch, and mucus. The dried rhizome of Calamus marsh contains yellow aromatic volatile oils comprising of small amounts of sesquiterpenes and their alcohols; choline, flavone, acoradin, galangin, acolamon, and isocolamon. Furthermore, it contains cineol, limonene, terpineol, azulene, eugenol, camphene, cadinene, ethanol, galangin, magnesium, zinc, tannin, terpenes, menthol, and camphor [391].
Calamus root is recognized in traditional medicine as a therapeutic agent for a range of ailments, such as arthritis, neuralgia, diarrhea, dyspepsia, and hair loss [390,392].
The plant has been found to possess potent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, antimicrobial, and wound healing properties. It is employed in dermatology for the treatment of pyoderma, acne vulgaris, alopecia, and eczema [393,394,395]. The advantageous effect on the skin can be attributed to the presence of β-azarone (26), a phenylpropanoid class chemical compound:
Preprints 71645 i014
β-Azaron is known to play a role in the body’s natural defense against ultraviolet rays, but it has also been found to have carcinogenic properties and induce liver tumors. Calamus marsh, which contains varying amounts of β-azarone depending on the variety, has been traditionally used in Asian medicine for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help alleviate skin itching, swelling, and redness. Meanwhile, European varieties of Calamus marsh are known to contain sesquiterpenoids, which possess psychoactive properties and display beneficial medicinal effects [396,397,398].
