Current update of Coriandrum sativum L. (Coriander): potential use on
Inflammatory bowel disease.
Abstract
Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is a member of the Apiaceae family is
valued for both its cooking and therapeutic use. Various studies shows
that it possesses Anxiolytic, antidepressant, sedative-hypnotic,
anticonvulsant, memory-improving, or facial dyskinesia-improvement,
Neuroprotective, antibacterial, antifungal, anthelmintic, insecticidal,
antioxidant, cardiovascular, Hypolipidemic, anti-inflammatory (IBD),
analgesic, ant diabetic, mutagenic, ant mutagenic, anticancer,
gastrointestinal, deodorizing, dermatological, diuretic, reproductive,
hepatoprotective, detoxification and other various pharmacological
effects. All components of this plant are used as flavouring agents or
as conventional treatments for a variety of diseases mainly Inflammatory
Bowel Disease. The parts of this plant help to treat collitus by
changing the levels of MPO, colon samples, ulcer index. The Coriandrum
sativum phytochemical analysis revealed that it included tannins,
terpenoids, reducing sugars, alkaloids, phenolic, flavonoids, fatty
acids, sterols and glycosides in addition to its essential oil. Linalool

lipids, carbs and fibers with significant nutritional qualities.
Coriander propagate worldwide easily, but mostly grown in India,
Netherlands, Myanmar, Romania, France, Spain, Italy and all other
countries. This review is designed to give an overview on chemical
constituents, cultivation, pharmacological actions traditional uses,
side effects of Coriandrum sativum Linn.
