Overview
Lantana (Wild sage) is a small creeping scrub from South America.
This medicinal plant is used for the treatment of skin itches, as an antiseptic for wounds, and for external use
against leprosy and scabies.The bark is astringent and used as a lotion in leprous ulcers and other eruptions of the skin. The leaves are boiled and applied for swellings and pain of the body. Alkaloids from lantana have been found to stimulate intestinal movements in experimental animals, lower blood pressure and accelerate deep respiration. Plant extracts are used in folk medicine for the treatment of cancers, chicken pox, measles, asthma, ulcers, eczema, tumors, high blood pressure, bilious fevers, catarrhal infections, tetanus and rheumatism. Extracts from the leaves exhibit antimicrobial, fungicidal, insecticidal and nematicidal activity. Phytochemicals Pentacyclic triterpenoids. New Compounds 1lantanoside, 2lantanone, 3Methy1 ursoxylate (12) 4Lancamaric acid, 5Ursoxy acid, 6Ursangilic acid, 7Ursethoxy acid, 8Camangelogyl acid, 9Methlcamaralate, 10Camangeloyl acid, 11Camarolide, Known compounds 12ÃZŲ-Sitosterol-3-O- ÃZŲ-D- glucopyransoide, 13Linaroside, 14Dotriacontanoic acid, 15Camarinic acid, 16Oleanolic acid acetate, 17Tetracosanoic acid, 18Octadecanoic acid, 19Docosanoic acid, 20Palmitic acid, 21Camaric acid, 22Lantanolic acid, 23Oleanolic acid, 24Lantanilic acid, 25Oleanonic acid, 26Ursonic acid. Pharmacology A study was done to investigate excision wound healing activity of the leaf extract in rats. The studies demonstrated that Lantana camara is effective in healing excision wounds in the experimental animal study and could be evaluated as a therapeutic agent in tissue repair processes associated with skin injuries. The translactone-containing triterpenes of this plant show thrombin inhibitory activity. A study showed the leaf extract of Lantana is cytotoxic in nature and may possess antitumor activity that may be due to the presence of toxic lantanoids and alkaloids.
