ABSTRACT

The present study is aimed at reviewing the phytochemistry and pharmacological activities of Gyrocarpus asiaticus Willd and Lactuca runcinata DC. The results of the current study are based on literature research on phytochemistry and pharmacological properties of Gyrocarpus asiaticus & Lactuca runcinata. These plants are valuable for antibacterial, anthelmintic, cardiotonic, antioxidant, cytotoxic (anti-cancer), anti-diabetic, hypolipidaemic and hepatoprotective effect. Toxicity study of the plant extracts were regarded as safe for animals. Both the plants were revealed the various phytoconstitutents such as alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, phenols, saponins, steroids, tannins and terpenoids which are may be responsible for different pharmacological activities. This literature review report of the plants would provide a basis for phytochemistry and pharmacological screening & are safe for the development of medicines and it will be more useful for researcher for further research work. Keywords: Gyrocarpus asiaticus, Lactuca runcinata, Phytochemistry, Pharmacology, GC-MS
