Abstract

Background: Dracocephalum kotschyi Boiss is an important medicinal plant of Asia, Europe and Iran. The therapeutic potential of Dracocephalum kotschyi has been mentioned in traditional as well as in modern medicine, mainly due to its therapeutic effectiveness against different types of human disorders and associated secondary complications. Calycopterin is a flavonoid class phytochemical commonly called 5,4-dihydroxy-3,6,7,8- tetramethoxyflavone, which has been isolated from Dracocephalum kotschyi. It is widely used for the treatment of human disorders and associated secondary complications. Medicinal importance and therapeutic potential of calycopterin was investigated in the present work through scientific data analysis of different research works. Scientific data on calycopterin published in different research articles were collected from PubMed, Google, Google Scholar, Science Direct, SpringerLink, and Scopus and analyzed in the present work. Further, scientific data was also collected from books and book chapters. Analytical data on calycopterin was also collected and analyzed in the present work. Scientific data analysis of different research work revealed the biological importance and therapeutic potential of calycopterin. Calycopterin showed therapeutic effectiveness against different types of cancerous disorders, including human prostate cancer, breast cancer, cervical cancer, lymphocyte proliferation and hepatoblastoma cancer. Moreover, the biological effectiveness of calycopterin on neuroprotection and Pseudomonas aeruginosa has also been discussed in the present work with their pharmacokinetic parameters. Nevertheless, more scientific investigations must be conducted to explore the health-beneficial aspects of calycopterin in medicine. Present work signified the biological importance and therapeutic potential of calycopterin for the treatment of human disorders and complications, including different types of cancerous disorders.
