13. S.No Application Activity
1. Anti-bacterial Inhibition of β-lactamases, fatty acid synthetase,
2. Anti-cancer Inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK), growth factor-related cell
signaling
3. Anti-inflammatory Inhibition inflammasome downregulation→decreased IL-1β
secretion→decreased NF-κB activities → decreased cell growth.
4. Diabetes Increased expression level of glucose transporter IV.
5. Diarrhea Inhibitory effect on Helicobacter pylori infection
6. Atherosclerosis Reduces LDL oxidizability, improves vascular function.
7. Antioxidative Inhibited oxygen consumption and formation of conjugated dienes in AAPH –
mediated linoleic acid peroxidative reaction

Red, White, Black Species seen.
15. Health Benefits:
S.No Application Activity
1. Anti-stress and anti-HIV
activity
Lignin fractions of mulberry juice have Anti-HIV and antibacterial
activities, anti-stress activity
2. Anti-atherosclerosis effect Lowered the levels of triglyceride, cholesterol and low-density
lipoprotein
cholesterol, and aortic atherosclerotic lesion in the blood vessel
3. Antidiabetic effects Improved hyperglycemia and insulin sensitivity
4. Anticancer effects Reduced glioma tumor growth through inhibition of cell proliferation
resulting from induction of apoptosis
5. Anti-neurotoxicity Exhibited the protective effects against dopaminergic neuronal damage
induced
6. Antimicrobial activity Inhibited the growth of some bacteria and fungi strains
17. S.No Application Activity
1. Antidepressant-like, sedative
and anxiolytic effects
to exert antidepressant effects in an animal model of depression
(chronic unpredictable mild stress)
2. Antihypertensive activities Eugenol (EU) - a major constituent has been found to inhibit rabbit
platelet aggregation
3. Cardioprotective activities consistent and beneficial effects on blood pressure, cardiac hypertrophy
and endothelin 1-converting enzyme levels in hypertensive rats.
4. Antidiabetic effects P-coumaric acid, chichoric acid and caffeic acid have been reported to
possess blood, serum and plasma glucose lowering properties in
hyperglycemic diabetic models.
5. Antimicrobial activity inhibit the growth of Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus,
Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans, Salmonella typhi and Escherichia
coli with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranging from 40 to
160 µg/ml
Health Benefits:
19. S.No Application Activity
1. Anti-Alzheimer Activity possess acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory
activities – 2 enzymes present an increased activity in the Alzheimer
disease.
2. Anti-inflammatory Activity Reducing the (inducible nitric oxide synthase) iNOS and COX-2
activity and, therefore, inhibiting the (nitric oxide)NO production
3. Anti-proliferative Activity Activity against Breast adenocarcinoma, Colon cancer cells, Lung cell
carcinoma, Ovarian cancer cells, Human colon cancer cells, Human
cervical cancer cells.
4. Anti-obesity activity Pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity, Inhibition of adipogenesis in 3T3-
L1 cells.
5. Antidiabetic effects α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity, Protective effect
against glucose-induced oxidative stress.

21. CONCLUSION
• Plant Polyphenols are important secondary metabolites that
finds a wide diversity and array of chemical properties
• Synthesis of these polyphenols could be regulated to have
plant cells been converted as cell factories
• Downstream processing of these metabolites is a promising
field in R&D
• Therapeutic evaluation of these bioactive metabolites opens
up a new domain of phytopharmaceutical research
• Product diversification, development and start ups could
originate in this field of Plant Polyphenols
