Ocimum herb species: a potential treatment strategy for diabetic kidney disease
Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Biotechnology and Experimental Therapeutics - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Ocimum genus most commonly termed as Tulsi, an aromatic plants belongs to family Lamiaceae. In addition to anti bacterial activity, anti-oxidant, anti diabetic, cardio protective, neuroprotective, radio-protective, anti-cancer, and free radical scavenging properties, quite a few studies have reported that this traditionally grown medicinal herb may become a potential therapy for diabetic kidney disease (DKD). This paper will significantly review Tulsi plants role in treatment of DKD to provide reference for future research.
