Description générale

Plumbagin is a bioactive naphthoquinone present majorly in Plumbago indica L. It is a quinoid and is also derived from the roots of Plumbago zeylanica roots.

Application

Plumbagin from Plumbago indica has been used:
  • as a reactive oxygen species agent (ROS) to induce cytotoxicity in mouse embryonic fibroblasts
  • as an oxidative stress inducer to generate superoxide anion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
  • as a reference standard in thin layer chromatography and in spectrophotometric analysis for quantification of plumbagin in Plumbago auriculate samples

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Plumbagin exhibits various pharmacological activities including antimicrobial, anticancer, anti-atherosclerotic, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, hypolipidemic, and neuroprotective activities. It inhibits the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling and halts the proliferation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Plumbagin elicits protective antioxidative functionality in 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide (NQNO) induced stress in lymphoma. Plumbagin in a nanoemulsion formulation has antiproliferative effect towards prostate cancer.
Exhibits cytotoxicity in rodent models of carcinogenesis and carcinoma; has antifungal, antiviral, and antibacterial action.

Plumbagin is one of the simplest plant secondary metabolite of three major phylogenic families viz. Plumbaginaceae, Droseraceae, and Ebenceae, and exhibits highly potent biological activities, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anticancer, antibacterial, and antifungal activities. Recent investigations indicate that these activities arise
