Abstract
Context: Humans have used plants for their medicinal needs since ancient times. Artemisia is an important medicinal plant genus that includes about 500 different species, many of which are known for their therapeutic effects. One of the valuable species of this genus, Artemisia ciniformis, exhibits interesting biological effects, yet there is no comprehensive report on its properties. Evidence Acquisition: Data were collected through extensive literature searches in web databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, SpringerLink, Google Scholar, Science Direct, ResearchGate, and Plants of the World Online, up until December 2024. The chemical structures were retrieved from the PubChem database and drawn using ChemDraw Professional 16.0 software. Results: This paper provides comprehensive information on the distribution, botanical characteristics, phytochemistry, and biological effects of this species, which may be useful for conducting further research in related fields such as pharmacognosy, pharmacology, phytochemistry, and natural product chemistry. Conclusions: Artemisia ciniformis, as a valuable plant species with prominent cytotoxic, antifungal, cytoprotective, and antileishmanial effects, along with other bioactivities, can be a new source for discovering promising bioactive molecules.
