Abstract

Globe artichoke (Cynara cardunculus L. subsp. scolymus (L.) Hayek, (formerly Cynara scolymus L.) represents an important component of the Mediterranean diet, and is a rich source of bioactive phenolic compounds, and also inulin, fibre and minerals. In addition, artichoke leaf extracts have long been used in folk medicine, particularly for liver complaints. These therapeutic properties have been often been ascribed to the cynarin (1,3-O-dicaffeoylquinic acid) content of these extracts. In various pharmacological test systems, artichoke leaf extracts have exhibited hepatoprotective, anticarcinogenic, antioxidative, antibacterial, anti-HIV, bile-expelling, and urinative activities as well as the ability to inhibit cholesterol biosynthesis and LDL oxidation. These broad therapeutic indications cannot be ascribed to a single, but to several active compounds that together generate additive or synergistic pharmacologic effects; these include mono- and dicaffeoylquinic acids, and flavonoids such as luteolin and its 7-O-glucoside. Artichoke by-products such as leaves, external bracts and stems that are produced by the artichoke processing industry, represent a huge amount of discarded material (about 80–85% of the total biomass of the plant), which could be used as a source of inulin but also of phenolics, and should be considered as a raw material for the production of food additives and nutraceuticals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
