- W1990028044 abstract "Traditional medicine is part of the Jordanian culture. Both rural and urban Jordanian societies depend on traditional medicine; using plants that are mainly locally grown. The occurrence of about 2500 plant species is recorded. A fifth of these are classified as medicinal plants and are used for the treatment of common mild diseases in addition to the treatment of chronic and/or incurable diseases. Although the practice of traditional medicine is based on years of belief and observation, scientific knowledge for most is very limited. To contribute to the existing, although limited, pool of data, our prime interests are native plants with antidiabetic and anticancer activities. Phase one of our investigation involved screening crude extracts of plants with claimed hypoglycemic activity in in vitro and in vivo experiments [1]. In parallel, the systemically collected medicinal plants were screened for their antiproliferative activity using different carcinoma cell lines [2]. Once efficacy and safety were established, in phase two, biologically active and safe plants were further evaluated in in vitro mechanistic assays [3, 4]. Results were compared to clinically used drugs. In phase three, the active plants were phytochemically investigated. Findings of our investigations are aiming, where possible, to link the traditional use with scientific evidence." @default.
