The Genus Alternanthera: Phytochemical and Ethnopharmacological Perspectives

Abstract

Ethnopharmacological relevance: The genus Alternanthera (Amaranthaceae) comprises 139 species including 14 species used traditionally for the treatment of various ailments such as hypertension, pain, inflammation, diabetes, cancer, microbial and mental disorders.

Aim of the review: To search research gaps through critical assessment of pharmacological activities not performed to validate traditional claims of various species of Alternanthera. This review will aid natural product researchers in identifying Alternanthera species with therapeutic potential for future investigation.

Materials and methods: Scattered raw data on ethnopharmacological, morphological, phytochemical, pharmacological, toxicological, and clinical studies of various species of the genus Alternanthera have been compiled utilizing search engines like SciFinder, Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, and Open J-Gate for 100 years up to April 2021.

Results: Few species of Alternanthera genus have been exhaustively investigated phytochemically, and about 129 chemical constituents related to different classes such as flavonoids, steroids, saponins, alkaloids, triterpenoids, glycosides, and phenolic compounds have been isolated from 9 species. Anticancer, antioxidant, antibacterial, CNS depressive, antidiabetic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulator effects have been explored in the twelve species of the genus. A toxicity study has been conducted on 3 species and a clinical study on 2 species.

Conclusions: The available literature on pharmacological studies of Alternanthera species reveals that few species have been selected based on ethnobotanical surveys for scientific validation of their traditional claims. But most of these studies have been conducted on uncharacterized and non-standardized crude extracts. A roadmap of research needs to be developed for the isolation of new bioactive compounds from Alternanthera species, which can emerge out as clinically potential medicines.

Introduction

The family Amaranthaceae comprises 65 genera and about 850 species (Hundiwale et al., 2012; Chandrashekhar, 2019). These species are mainly distributed in tropical regions of the United States of America, Africa, and India. Amongst 65 genera and 850 species, only 17 genera and 50 species have been recorded to be found in India. The plants from this family include herbs, shrubs, and universal weeds. The genus Alternanthera, a significant delegate of the family Amaranthaceae was coined by by Forsskal in 1775. The genus Alternanthera comprises roughly 139 species which are distributed in India, China, Sri Lanka, the United States of America, and Africa (Figure 1). Though not complete and exhaustive, but phytochemical characterization was found to be reported that of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC., Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb., Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze, Alternanthera hirtula (Mart.) R.E.Fr., Alternanthera praelonga A.St.-Hil., Alternanthera littoralis P.Beauv., Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson, and Alternanthera pungens Kunth (Table 1 with complete details).

Chemical constituents isolated from genus Alternanthera.

The present review emphasizes traditional uses, chemical constituents, pharmacological actions, clinical potential, and safety profile of Alternanthera species. The current work has been compiled to fulfill the following goals: 1) to explore if traditional claims of Alternanthera species have been scientifically justified by pharmacological and clinical studies, and also to assess critically if their mechanism of actions is established, 2) to explore whether detailed phytochemical investigations have been conducted to detect and isolate main/bioactive constitutes of various species, 3) to reveal whether appropriate analytical methods have been developed for standardization of plant materials based on marker compounds, 4) to analyze whether isolated compounds from Alternanthera species have potential to be developed as lead molecules unaltered or needs derivatization to develop semisynthetic drugs through proper SAR studies and 5) to check if the safety and toxicity profiles of Alternanthera species have been studied. The scattered raw data has been compiled from online databases such as SciFinder, Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, and Open J-Gate for 100 years up to April 2021 and offline databases such as Aromatic Plants Abstract, scientific journals, and books from different libraries of National repute. Keywords selected were based on various species of Alternanthera genus, and different biological activities. The articles which were in English and available with full text were included. Manuscript written in non-English versions were excluded. A total of 156 articles related to Alternanthera genus were finally studied and cited. But the cross-sectional literature review led us to cover a total of around 500 articles in this review article. The review article is categorized into six sections: 1) morphology emphasizes morphological characters of different Alternanthera species; 2) ethnopharmacology covers traditional uses of different Alternanthera species; 3) phytoconstituents includes name and structure of chemicals constituents isolated from various species of the genus; 4) biological activities focus on different pharmacological activities reported in various species and presented in the table; 5) toxicity studies include scientific reports of toxicity studies of different Alternanthera species and 6) clinical studies describe clinical trials conducted on humans.

Morphology

The morphological profile of various species of the genus was found to be similar with some variations. A. brasiliana (L.) Kuntze (a perennial herb mainly distributed in Brazil) is prostrate, 7.5–45 cm long branches, introducing a round stem, long internodes, and swollen nodes, at which inverse leaves connect (Kumar S. et al., 2011). Branches are glabrous, two lines of hair, nodes frequently villous; leaves are 2.5–7.5 cm, considerably longer when developing in watery spots, rather plump, at some point indefinitely denticulate; flowers are white, found in the form of bunches; seeds are 1.25–1.5 mm, sub-orbicular.

A. denticulata R. Br. and A. nahui Heenan and de Lange comprise stem of 100 mm height and located in an upright position (Heenan et al., 2009). The uniform spreading of minute hairs is present on the stems of both plants. The dark green-colored leaves (length—30 mm and breadth—6 mm) of both plants are linear, entire, narrow, elliptic, denticulate margins, and oblong in appearance. The abaxial surface of the tepals (length: 2.0–4.2 mm) is described by keeled, a character that is presented at the base of mature and dried tepals.

A. philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb., a perennial herb, has stems crawling or gliding rising towards pinnacle, establishing at the lower hubs, branched, empty, with a longitudinal hairy groove score on two inverse sides (Pulipati et al., 2015). The fresh and delicious stems can develop on a level plane and float on the outside of the water, framing pontoons, or structure tangled bunches that develop onto banks. The leaves are inverse two by two, with an unmistakable midrib, and ranges from 5–10 cm. The plant consists of leaf, lanceolate shape, intense pinnacle, whole edge, glabrous surface, graduate base, and short strong petiole.

A. pungens Kunth is a perennial herb with a stem of 10–15 cm long with hair. The leaves are green in color and ovate in a shape of about 0.5–4.5 cm long and 0.3–2 cm in width (Naidu, 2012). It is native to the Southern American continent generally found in South Carolina, Florida, and California spreading around the road sides (Gupta et al., 2012). In 1918 it was first reported in the Southern parts of India (Rao, 2000).

A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. is a perennial herb with purple-colored and glabrous branches grown from the root bases about 50 cm in length (Anitha and Kanimozhi, 2012). The fresh leaves are shiny, 1.3–3.0 cm long and 0.5–1.0 cm wide however the leaves are bigger in wet living spaces, direct elliptic, oval or obovate, zenith adjusted and base cuneate. The blossoms are subtle, white, borne in little, axillary heads; bracts are obovate and 1 mm long. The bracteoles are shorter, persevering; subequal, and intense. Utricleare cordi-structure and are unequivocally compacted. The seeds are orbicular. The plant bears blossoms and natural products consistently.

Ethnopharmacology and Traditional Uses

The infusion of inflorescences of A. Brasiliana (L.) Kuntze with water is used in headaches, coughs, colds, and grippe (Hundiwale et al., 2012). The infusion of leaves with a cup of water has been used in the treatment of fever while a decoction of roots is used in diarrhea. Traditionally, the various plant parts (stems, leaves, flowers, roots) of A. caracasana Kunth have been used to treat dysentery, diarrhea, and fever. The infusion of the plant is used as lavage or beverage in the traditional system of medicines (Canales-Martínez et al., 2008). The aerial parts of A. Brasiliana (L.) Kuntze are indicated in the treatment of inflammation, pain, and various infections (Hundiwale et al., 2012). The leaves of A. ficoidea (L.) P.Beauv. has been used in the treatment of heart and cancer problems (Patil and Kore, 2019). A. littoralis P. Beauv. has a long tradition of use in the treatment of infectious and inflammatory diseases (Koolen et al., 2017). The old texts indicated the use of A. littoralis P. Beauv. in the treatment of inflammatory, infectious diseases (de Santana Aquino et al., 2015), viral infections, immunity problems, cancer, malaria, and diarrhea (Hundiwale et al., 2012; Sekar, 2012). A. nodiflora R.Br. has been in the treatment of skin, degenerative and microbial infections (Feka et al., 2014). A. paronychioides A.St.-Hil. has been used in the treatment of hyperuricemia, rheumatic arthritis, uremia, nephritis, gout, cystitis, diabetes, and systemic neuralgia in TCM (Wu et al., 2013). In Ayurveda, the syrup of the whole plant of A. philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. has been employed in the treatment of influenza (Hundiwale et al., 2012). The aqueous infusion of leaf and flower of A. porrigens (Jacq.) Kuntze has been recorded in old texts for the treatment of hepatic pain, kidney problems, and influenza. A. pungens Kunth has been employed as folk medicine in Argentina, commonly known as Yerba del pollo, recorded in the Pharmacopeia National Argentina (1978) for various medicinal purposes. It has been traditionally used in the treatment of swelling, nasopharyngeal infections, as a painkiller in labor pain, and also for lactation stimulus in veterinary-related cases (Burkill, 1985). It is also used in the treatment of gonorrhea (Semenya and Potgieter, 2014), menstrual disorder, miscarriage (Lucky and Diame, 2010) and to treat dysentery, cholera, and many parasitic diseases (Grønhaug et al., 2008; Guede et al., 2010). In Sudan, it is used in aqueous form for the treatment of cough. In Brazil, the aerial parts are used against grippe and vermifuge (Agra et al., 2007). It is used for crushing kidney stones or renal calculi in the form of decoction. The whole plant of A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. has been used as green vegetable for maintain the nutrient balance in body (Astudillo-Vázquez et al., 2008). The roasted leaves and stems (p.o.) of A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. have been in the treatment of stomach pain, ulcer, and gastric problems (Kumar S. M. et al., 2011). The aerial parts of A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. have been used as a diuretic in the Ayurvedic system of medicines (Hundiwale et al., 2012). The leaves of A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. are used as a diuretic, antipyretic and antiseptic and roots are used as amenorrhea, inflammations, ovarian diseases, and female sterility. The young shoots of A. sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. have been used as lactagogue and febrifuge (Hosamani et al., 2004). Keeping these in mind, the most common traditional uses for the Alternanthera species were recorded for the treatment and management of inflammation, pain, infectious diseases, and gastric problems.

Phytoconstituents Isolated and Identified in Alternanthera Species

GC–MS of n-hexane extract of A. philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. leaves showed the presence of 25 compounds. Among this Acetic acid, 2-(2-methoxycarbonylamino-5-nitrophenylthio)-, methyl ester (31.92%); 1,4-Benzenediol, 2,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl) (15.06%); 4-Pyridinecarboxamide, 6-bromo-4,5-dicyano-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-3,3-dimethyl-2-[[(1methylethyamino] oxy] (8.53%); L-Cysteine, N-(trifluoroacetyl)-, butyl ester, trifluoroacetate (ester) (6.59%); Cyclopentaneundecanoic acid, methyl ester (5.4%) and 3-Bromo-N-(2-thiazolyl) benzamide (3.49%) are dominant (Akbar et al., 2021). LC-MS/MS and GC-MS analysis of an ethanolic extract of A. brasiliana (L.) Kuntze aerial parts were performed (Alencar Filho et al., 2019). Five compounds (luteolin-8-C-rhamnosylglucoside, 2″-O-rhamnosylvitexin, 2″-O-rhamnosyl-6-C-glucosyl methyl-luteolin, rutin, and 2″-O-rhamnosylswertisin) were identified by LC-MS/MS whereas twenty-two compounds were identified by GC-MS but major proportions were n-hexadecanoic acid with 16.61% followed by linoleic acid, clionasterol, α-tocopherol, stigmast-7-en-3-ol, and α-amyrin. The GC-MS analysis of volatile oil obtained from leaves of A. pungens Kunth showed the presence of 12 compounds and the major compound was β-ionone (42.18%) (Ogunmoye et al., 2020). Other compounds identified were Hexahydrofarnesyl acetone (15.53%), Methyl palmitate (6.13%), 1-Octadecyne (4.72%), Undecane (3.73%), p-Metha-1,3,8-triene (3.65%), Isophytol (3.21%), δ-Cadinene (3.06%), 1,2-Dimethyl cyclooctene (3.05%), p-Cymene (2.96%), Phytol (2.67%) and Neophytadiene (2.50%).

The phytoconstituents—benzopyran, flavonoids, volatile oil, sterols, triterpenoid/saponins, phenolic compounds, ionone, anthraquinone, hydroxycinnamic acids, alkaloids, etc. have been scientifically reported from 9 species of Alternanthera. The chemical constituents (along with their structure) isolated from different species of the Alternanthera genus are shown in Table 1.

Referring to the data tabulated in Table 1 covering the isolated phytoconstituents from 9 species of Alternanthera genus, we have prepared an interactive mapping (Figure 2) to give some quick insight about it to the readers. Notably, it has also been observed that some of the phytocompounds like kaempferol, stigmasterol, quercetin, vitexin, ferulic acid, caffeic acid, etc have been isolated from various species of Alternanthera genus. This somehow lead us to suggest that these phytocompounds could serve as standardization of these markers could be helpful in identifying Alternanthera species, and avoid adulteration. Some of the compounds isolated from the species of Alternanthera genus are very common and usually been reported from multiple biological sources and well known for many pharmacological activities. For instance, kaempferol has been isolated from various other sources including Euonymus alatus (Thunb.) Siebold (Fang et al., 2008; Singla et al., 2021), Vachellia nilotica (L.) P.J.H.Hurter and Mabb.(Singh et al., 2008), etc, with multiple therapeutic potential, including but not limited to antiproliferative (Park et al., 2021), antiviral (Arabyan et al., 2021), hepatoprotective (Alshehri et al., 2021), antioxidant (Sharma et al., 2021), etc. Similarly, chlorogenic acid had been reported from multiple resources, including Cocos nucifera L. (Bankar et al., 2011), apple fruit (Hulme, 1953), Neolamarckia cadamba (Roxb.) Bosser (Kapil et al., 1995), etc with multiple therapeutic potential like neuroprotective (Hung et al., 2021), antihepatotoxic (Kapil et al., 1995), etc. Since species of Alternanthera genus containing other compounds also along with these common phytomolecules, there could be a possibility of synergistic potential and enhanced activity. Thus, we suggest the researchers to explore the therapeutic potential based on the common bioactive compounds.

Pharmacological Activities

Several scientific investigations were conducted to validate traditional claims of various species of Alternanthera. Uncharacterized/non-standardized crude extracts of various species of Alternanthera were used in most of these scientific pharmacological studies. Alternanthera species have been observed to display analgesic, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, hepatoprotective, hypotensive, allelopathic, α-glucosidase inhibitory, anthelmintic, anti-allergic, antianxiety, sedative, antiapoptotic, antiarthritic, antiasthmatic, anticataract, anticonvulsant, antidepressant, antidiabetic, antidiarrhoeal, antifungal, antibacterial, anti-HBV, antiparkinsonian, antiprotozoal, antispasmodic, antiviral, gastrointestinal protective, immunomodulatory and wound healing activities. The plant species, extract/fraction/isolate, dose tested/route of administration, bioactive dose, positive control, negative control, In vivo/in vitro models, and mechanism of action have been summarized in Table 2.

Referring to the data tabulated in Table 2, and interactive Figure 3, it is quite evident that the Alternanthera genus is having tremendous potential having polypharmacological effects. 35 different types of pharmacological effects were elicited by different species of Alternanthera genus. While the species like Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC., Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze, and Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. were most widely explored, it opens up the opportunity for the researchers to explore other species of this genus.

Analgesic Activity

Pelisoli Formagio and the team had evaluated the aqueous extract from the aerial parts of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze for its analgesic potential. 90.35% reduction of acetic acid induced contractions were observed in mice, when treated with 25 mg/kg of the aqueous extract (Pelisoli Formagio et al., 2012). Coutinho and the team had performed the formalin test in mice for assessment of analgesic effect of ethanolic extract from the leaves of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze. At 100 mg/kg, ethanolic extract was capable of reducing the edematogenic process by 64.17% (Coutinho et al., 2017). Phytoconstituents like kaempferol (Parveen et al., 2007), quercetin (Anjaneyulu and Chopra, 2003), vitexin (Zhu et al., 2016), etc may be responsible for the analgesic potential of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze.

de Santana Aquino and the team had evaluated ethanolic extract as well as isolated compound, 2″-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosylvitexin from the aerial parts of Alternanthera littoralis P.Beauv. for analgesic potential. Results suggested that the ethanolic extract as well as 2″-O-α-L-rhamnopyranosylvitexin are capable of exerting significant analgesic effect, most probably through the TNF pathway (de Santana Aquino et al., 2015). Since kaempferol, quercetin, and vitexin were also been reported from Alternanthera littoralis P.Beauv. (Figure 2), so these compounds could also attribute in analgesic potential of the extract.

Khatun and the team had prepared the methanolic extract from the whole plant part of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. and evaluated for its analgesic potential in the acetic acid induced mice. They found that 400 mg/kg dose of methanolic extract was capable of reducing constrictions by 44.8%. Phytoconstituents like kaempferol (Parveen et al., 2007), quercetin (Anjaneyulu and Chopra, 2003), vitexin (Zhu et al., 2016), caffeic acid (Gamaro et al., 2011), ursolic acid (Vasconcelos et al., 2006), etc may be responsible for the analgesic potential of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb.

Various research teams have independently assessed the analgesic potential of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC.: Mondal and the team used ethanolic extract of the leaves (Mondal et al., 2014); Mohapatra and the team used hydroethanolic extract of leaves (Mohapatra et al., 2018); Hossain and the team used methanolic extract of aerial parts (Hossain et al., 2014); while Mohaimenul and the team used ethanolic extract of aerial parts (Mohaimenul et al., 2020). It is thus quite validated that aerial parts especially leaves of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. have the analgesic potential. Various mechanisms observed by those researchers for this activity. Some of them are like inhibition of interleukins like IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13, dopaminergic and serotonergic pathways, inhibition of lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase, etc. Along with kaempferol, vitexin, and quercetin, compounds like stigmasterol (Walker et al., 2017) may also be responsible for such analgesic effect.

Anthelmintic Activity

Vennila and Nivetha had prepared various extracts from the leaves of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. and performed In vitro—Pheretima Posthuma method for assessment of anthelmintic activity. They observed that methanolic extract was the most potent and active at all the tested concentrations. The possible mechanism proposed by them was membrane lysis which subsequently led to paralysis or death of the worm (Vennila and Nivetha, 2015). On the other hand, Mondal and the team had assessed anthelmintic activity of ethanolic extract of the whole plant as well as the isolated ellagic acid by using In vitro—Adult motility test. They had also indicated the disruption of cell permeability, along with various other pathways and found ellagic acid a key responsible compound (Mondal et al., 2015). Other compounds that may be responsible for this pharmacological effects could be quercetin (Borges et al., 2020), β-sitosterol (Deepak et al., 2002), etc.

Antiallergic Activity

Rayees and the team checked the antiallergic activity of 95% ethanolic extract from aerial parts of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. Studies were conducted in rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells. They found that the treatment with ethanolic extract resulted in nuclear factor-KB (NF-kB) dependent inhibition of cytokines like IL-6, TNF-α, IL-13, and IL-4, along with the decrease in β-hexosaminidase release (Rayees et al., 2013). Compounds like β-sitosterol (Yuk et al., 2007; Mahajan and Mehta, 2011), kaempferol (Oh et al., 2013), quercetin (Mlcek et al., 2016), vitexin (Venturini et al., 2018), stigmasterol (Antwi et al., 2018), etc may be responsible for the antiallergic activity of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC.

Antianxiety Property

Various research teams have independently assessed the antianxiety potential of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze: Pelisoli Formagio had used the aqueous extract of the leaves (Pelisoli Formagio et al., 2012); Oyemitan and the team had used the ethanolic extract of the leaves (Oyemitan et al., 2015); while Barua and the team had used the methanolic extract of the leaves (Barua et al., 2013). It is thus quite validated that the leaves of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze have the antianxiety potential. Various mechanisms observed by those researchers for this activity. Some of them are like activation of GABA receptor and 5-HT partial agonistic action. Phytomolecules like stigmasterol (Karim et al., 2021), kaempferol (Kaur et al., 2017), quercetin (Singh et al., 2013), p-coumaric acid (He Y. et al., 2021), etc may be responsible for this antianxiety property of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze.

Khamphukdee and the team had assessed ethanolic extract from the leaves of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. for antianxiety potential by performing In vivo—Elevated plus-maze test, Light/Dark transition test, and Locomotor activity test in female mice. They observed that both the test doses i.e. 250 and 500 mg/kg/day of the extract was able to reduce the anxiety, most probably through the esterogenic pathway. Quercetin and kaempferol were detected in this plant also, so may be responsible for such antianxiety behavior.

Antiapoptotic Activity

Wu and the team had studied the antiapoptotic potential of ethanolic extract from the whole plant of Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson. They found that ethanolic extract has strong tendency to reduce apoptosis which was modulated via multiple mechanisms including reduction of reactive oxygen species, inhibition of caspase-3 and caspase-9 activation, etc. They had reported quercetin as the major compound in that extract, and they found same mechanisms when evaluated quercetin for antiapoptotic potential.

Antiarthritic Activity

Manan and the team had studied antiarthritic potential of the ethanolic extract obtained from the aerial parts of Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson using in silico, in vitro and in vivo methodologies. HPLC analysis indicated the presence of catechin, gallic acid, sinapic acid, chlorogenic acid, alpha-tocopherol, gamma-tocopherol, and quercetin. They have found that even the 250 mg/kg/day of the ethanolic extract was able to modulate the parameters suggesting the antiarthritic potential when compared with standard drug and disease control. In silico analysis suggested the strong interaction between the HPLC-analysed phytomolecules and cyclooxygenases (Manan et al., 2020).

Sunmathi and the team had studied the antiarthritic activity of ethanolic extracts obtained from the leaves of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. and Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. using in vitro methodologies. They found that 500 μg/ml of ethanolic extract of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. and Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. were able to stabilize the membrane by 64.92 and 75.43%, respectively. Phytomolecules like vitexin (Yang et al., 2019) and quercetin (Mamani-Matsuda et al., 2006) may be responsible for the antiarthritic activity of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. and Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC.

Antiasthmatic Activity

Various research teams have independently assessed the antiasthmatic potential of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC.: Fathima and the team had used ethanolic extract of leaves (Fathima et al., 2016) while Saqib and Janbaz had used 70% Ethanolic extract of the whole plant and its dichloromethane and aqueous fractions (Saqib and Janbaz, 2016). This validates the applicability of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. in the treatment management of asthma. Ethanolic extract obtained from the leaves was found to reduce the leucocyte count and significantly inhibited the histamine release (Fathima et al., 2016). 70% ethanolic extract of the whole plant was found to act via calcium channel blocking mechanism (Saqib and Janbaz, 2016). Phytomolecules like kaempferol (Gong et al., 2012), vitexin (Venturini et al., 2018), quercetin (Fortunato et al., 2012), stigmasterol (Antwi et al., 2017a), chlorogenic acid (Kim et al., 2010), etc. may be key components for the antiasthamatic activity of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC.

Anticancer/Cytotoxic Property

Various research teams have independently assessed the anticancer property of Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson: M Nagalingam and the team had used aqueous extract of the leaves (Nagalingam et al., 2018) while R Jothi Ramalingam and the team had used aqueous extract of leaves and silver nanoparticles and Ag-mesoporous MnO2 nanocomposite (Jothi Ramalingam et al., 2017). This validates the potential of leaves from Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson and their nanoparticles in colon cancer and lung cancer. Apigenin analogues present in the Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson may be responsible for the anticancer property (Madunić et al., 2018; Imran et al., 2020).

Similarly, various research teams have independently assessed the anticancer property of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.)

Phytomolecules like Vitexin and vitexin analogs (Bektas et al., 2020), Kaempferol and kaempferol analogs (Petpiroon et al., 2015; Özay et al., 2019), Quercetin and quercetin analogs (Gomathi et al., 2003), Tricin (Han et al., 2016), β-Sitosterol (Abbas et al., 2019), Ferulic acid (Ghaisas et al., 2014), p-Coumaric acid (Kong et al., 2013; Boeing et al., 2020), and Chlorogenic acid (Bagdas et al., 2015) which had been isolated from Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze previously, may be responsible for this wound healing property.

Muniandy and the team had evaluated the wound healing action of the 90% hydroethanolic extract obtained from the stem of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. while Jalalpure and the team had used chloroform extract obtained from the leaves Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. Both these teams had independently ascertained the wound healing property of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. (Jalalpure et al., 2008; Muniandy et al., 2018b). Phytomolecules like Vitexin and vitexin analogs (Bektas et al., 2020), Kaempferol and kaempferol analogs (Petpiroon et al., 2015; Özay et al., 2019), Quercetin and quercetin analogs (Gomathi et al., 2003), Acacetin analogs (Bhat et al., 2013), β-Sitosterol (Abbas et al., 2019), Ellagic acid (Mo et al., 2014), Ferulic acid (Ghaisas et al., 2014), p-Coumaric acid (Kong et al., 2013; Boeing et al., 2020), and Chlorogenic acid (Bagdas et al., 2015), β-Carotene (Gerber and Erdman, 1982), and Ricinoleic acid (Nada et al., 2018) which had earlier reported from Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC., may be responsible for this wound healing property.

After this exhaustive cross-literature review for the bioactive compounds that may be responsible elements behind the potent pharmacological actions elicited by the extracts, we have summarized those in a smart interactive illustration (Figure 4).

Toxicological Studies

Hydroalcoholic extract of Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze and Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson leaves was orally administered (200 mg/kg dose) for 14 days in mice to observe any change in behavior of animals (Kasthuri and Ramesh, 2018). Further, hematological and histopathological changes were also observed. Sub-acute toxicity study suggested that both extracts samples did not show any harmful side effects. Hydroethanolic leaf extract of Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson displayed a progressively powerful cytotoxic impact on DLA cell lines than Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze extract.

The oral acute toxicity study was conducted on 95% ethanolic extract of Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. at the dose of 500 mg/kg in male and female rodents (Thanabhorn et al., 2005). The ethanolic extract did not show mortality and gross morphological alterations in the organs of rodents. Oral administration of 1,000 mg/kg/day for 14 days showed no significant changes in the body and inner organs weights, hematological and clinical parameters.

Clinical Studies

The studies have shown antiretroviral activity of Alternanthera pungens Kunth herbal tea due to antioxidant potential when administered to HIV patients (Djohan et al., 2009). Blood samples were taken from fasted patients who received an Alternanthera pungens Kunth tea for 12 months every day before dinner. The markers of oxidative stress (malondialdehyde and advanced oxidation protein end products), plasma T lymphocytes, transaminases, and creatinine were determined in the blood sample. A significant decrease in concentrations of markers of oxidative stress and an increase in plasma levels of CD4 and CD8 T cells after this period were observed. Further, no signs of hepatic and renal toxicity were seen in HIV patients.

In another case study, the potential of Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC., Momordica charantia L., and Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott were investigated in reducing postprandial blood glucose levels in healthy human subjects and patients with type II diabetes (Bachok et al., 2014). The results of the clinical report suggested that Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. reduced the non-significant glucose level in 3 h in comparison to standard control diet in healthy and diseased subjects. This case study was conducted in India with eight healthy subjects and six diabetic subjects.

Conclusion

To date, 129 compounds have been isolated from 9 species of Alternanthera. 129 bioactive compounds were classified in 11 phytochemical classes, covering information about 40 flavonoids, 17 triterpenoid/saponins, 15 sterols, 12 alkaloids, 10 phenolic compounds, 3 ionone, 1 benzopyran, 3 hydroxycinnamic acids, 4 anthraquinone, 8 volatile oils and 17 miscellaneous compounds. Flavonoids (∼32%) constitute the main class of phytoconstituents in the genus Alternanthera followed by triterpenoids (∼13%). The isolated triterpenoids such as oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, and flavonoids such as luteolin, apigenin, vitexin, kaempferol, quercetin aglycones and their glycosides from the genus have proven therapeutic value. In terms of the phytochemical exploration, the most explored species of Alternanthera genus were Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. (52 compounds), Alternanthera sessilis (L.). R.Br. ex DC. (45 compounds), Alternanthera brasiliana (L.). Kuntze (32 compounds), and Alternanthera littoralis P.Beauv (24 compounds). Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. has so far yielded a diverse class of compounds, like benzopyran, flavonoids, sterols, triterpenoid/saponin, phenolic compounds, ionone, and miscellaneous compounds. Similarly, Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. has also yielded a diverse class of compounds like flavonoids, sterols, triterpenoid/saponins, phenolic compounds, anthraquinone, alkaloids, and miscellaneous compounds.While volatile oil related compounds were extracted only from Alternanthera pungens Kunth, ionone analogues were isolated from Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. only and hydroxycinnamic acids were reported only from Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson. Researchers could explore rest of the species of Alternanthera genus to check if containing ionone analogues, volatile oils, and hydroxycinnamic acids. Further, the species of Alternanthera genus which were least explored in terms of phytochemical characterization is also leading for possible opportunities for the researchers.

To the best of our knowledge, the phytochemial characterization of Alternanthera paronychioides A.St.-Hil., Alternanthera caracasana Kunth, Alternanthera nodiflora R.Br., and Alternanthera ficoidea (L.) P.Beauv. was not yet done, leaving an ample scope for the researchers.

Some phytoconstituents like quercetin, vitexin, chlorogenic acid, kaempferol, ferulic acid, β-sitosterol, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, quinic acid, etc had been reported from more than one species of Alternanthera. Probably, we could say that these phytoconstituents may be common secondary metabolites in Alternanthera genus. So, we recommend the researchers to explore the rest of the Alternanthera species for these common metabolites. These metabolites could serve as biomarkers for them.

As twelve species of Alternanthera have been investigated scientifically for pharmacological activities, only 9 species of the genus have been explored phytochemically. Few medicinally promising Alternanthera species have not been taken into consideration for phytochemical studies. The existing literature demonstrates that 5 species of genus Alternanthera such as.

Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze, Alternanthera caracasana Kunth, Alternanthera ficoidea (L.) P.Beauv., Alternanthera nodiflora R.Br., and Alternanthera paronychioides A.St.-Hil. have been scientifically reported to exhibit various pharmacological activities, but these species have never been subjected to bioactivity directed fractionation to isolate bioactive phytoconstituents using appropriate chromatographic techniques. Therefore, natural product scientists should expand their research activities on Alternanthera species to isolate more bioactive compounds which can be developed as safer and efficacious lead molecules or potent analogs of bioactive markers. Further, it seems necessary to mention a major research gap in phytochemical studies that no emphasis has been given to standardizing these plants based on marker compounds. Appropriate analytical methods need to be developed using HPLC, HPTLC, or LC-MS for the standardization of Alternanthera species. Molecular docking and QSAR studies on selective bioactive markers of these species are also lacking. It has been observed that crude uncharacterized extracts of Alternanthera species have been used in most pharmacological studies. This observation attracts attention towards the isolation of bioactive compounds from Alternanthera following the bioactivity-guided fractionation approach. Highlighting a mechanistic approach for pharmacological activities is another area of research to be covered. Alternamide A-B and Alternamine A-B were evaluated only for antiprotozoal activity while Chikusetsusaponin IVa was checked for antiviral activity only, leaving a wide scope for the researchers.

Amongst 139 species of Alternanthera, only 12 species have shown medicinal value in preclinical studies, and out of these only Alternanthera pungens Kunth and Alternanthera sessilis (L.) R.Br. ex DC. have been investigated clinically for antiretroviral and antidiabetic activities, respectively. The toxicity studies have been conducted on 3 species such as Alternanthera bettzickiana (Regel) G.Nicholson, Alternanthera brasiliana (L.) Kuntze, and Alternanthera philoxeroides (Mart.) Griseb. to establish their safety profile. Please be noted that as per the latest guidelines and recommendations of the ethnopharmacology team, the scientific names of the plants have been reassessed and considered the name given on https://mpns.science.kew.org/mpns-portal/. So the universally recognized name has been mentioned rather than the synonym indicated in the cited articles.

It is finally concluded that a well-planned roadmap of research activities is needed to be designed on traditionally used and medicinally promising plants of genus Alternanthera, so that their products and preparations may emerge out to be clinically potential and safe medicines in the treatment of various ailments.
