OCCURRENCE AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF SECO-IRIDOIDS FROM JASMINUM L.

In this paper, the first complete review on the seco-iridoids from the genus Jasminum L. was presented. In particular, their occurrence in the genus was detailed together with their biological activities. The literature survey has clearly pointed out that only a few Jasminum species have been studied for their seco-iridoid content evidencing oleoside derivatives as main compounds. In addition, the biological studies performed on them are very scarce focusing mainly on antioxidant and anti-inflammatory assays with modest effectiveness. All these results greatly underline the need for further in-depth analyses on these compounds under both the aspects.
