Abstract

Pinus mugo Turra is a coniferous species of shrub or small tree typical of central and south-eastern Europe. It is commonly called mugo pine, mountain pine, or dwarf mountain pine referring to its habit and small size. Indeed, this plant lives at higher altitude above 1400 m above the see level where it deals with harsh conditions typical of high mountain. From an ethnotraditional point of view, P. mugo is mainly used for respiratory disorders and wound healing. In particular, its essential oils have been shown to possess interesting antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, which can substantiate its potential therapeutic effect in pulmonary and urinary tract diseases, as well as antinflammatory and antitumor effects. This review also offers a summary on the chemical constituents of P. mugo that contribute to its therapeutic potential.

松树及其治疗潜力：叙述性综述

马果松（Pinus mugo Turra）是欧洲中部和东南部典型的灌木或小乔木针叶树种。由于其习性和矮小的体型，它通常被称为木格松、山松或矮山松。事实上，这种植物生活在海拔 1400 米以上的高海拔地区，在那里它要应对高山上典型的恶劣条件。从民族传统的角度来看，木格松主要用于治疗呼吸系统疾病和伤口愈合。特别是，其精油已被证明具有有趣的抗菌和抗氧化活性，可以证实其对肺部和泌尿道疾病的潜在治疗效果，以及抗炎和抗肿瘤作用。这篇综述还总结了有助于发挥其治疗潜力的木犀草化学成分。
