Systematic review reveals high antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties in Campomanesia pubescens extracts, indicating potential health benefits.
This systematic review aimed to synthesize the evidence available in the literature on the biochemical characterization and potential biological effects of Campomanesia pubescens. A systematic review was performed following the PRISMA protocol from the following databases: PubMed, Web of Sciences, CENTRAL and Scopus. Studies published until December, 2023, with characterization of Campomanesia pubescens compounds and/or experimental studies on the biological effects of the plant were included. The results identified 4,164 studies and 2,127 repeated articles were excluded. After the analysis process, eleven texts were included in the qualitative synthesis. This systematic review showed that different types of extracts from different parts of Campomanesia pubescens have a high content of functional compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory action without any evidence of toxicity and/or genotoxicity.
