Pharmacological importance of an ethnobotanical plant: Capsicum annuum L
Nat Prod Res.
2014.
Abstract
Capsicum annuum L., a fruit plant from tropical and subtropical regions, contains a range of essential nutrients and bioactive compounds which are known to exhibit a range of bioactivities including free radical scavenging (antioxidant), antimicrobial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and anticancer. This review aims to give a comprehensive overview of the literature published on pharmacological behaviours of C. annuum L.
Keywords: Capsicum; anti-inflammatory; anticancer; antimicrobial; antioxidant; chilli.
