Abstract
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Natural substance geraniol has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant qualities. It may be used to treat metabolic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular illnesses. Innovations in nanoformulations enhance geraniol's absorption, stability, and targeted distribution, augmenting its therapeutic effectiveness and mitigating side effects, despite the limits of traditional treatment.
Aim of the review: The therapeutic potential of geraniol in the management of metabolic disorders such as diabetes, obesity, neuroinflammation, and cardiovascular disease is examined in this review. It highlights the anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and lipid-lowering qualities of geraniol as well as the potential for nanoformulations to increase bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy.
Materials and methods: A collection of pertinent research articles about the potential of geraniol in metabolic illnesses, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, as well as cardiovascular diseases, was compiled from PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Terms such as "metabolic syndrome," "antioxidant," "anti-inflammatory," "geraniol," and "nanoformulations" were employed. Google Patents were also examined in order to offer insights into current and upcoming research.
Results: The potential of geraniol to treat metabolic disorders, including obesity, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and cardiovascular illnesses, is thoroughly reviewed in this article. Recent research has demonstrated the lipid-lowering, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties of geraniol as well as its ability to improve endothelial function and reduce oxidative stress in preclinical animals. The paper delves into the various nanoformulations, including liposomes, nanoparticles, and nanoemulsions, which enhance geraniol's therapeutic efficacy and bioavailability, making it a viable option for managing metabolic syndrome.
Conclusion: The antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and lipid-lowering qualities of geraniol make it a promising treatment for metabolic diseases. Its bioavailability along with therapeutic efficacy are increased by nanoformulations, which makes it a compelling option for the treatment of conditions such as neuroinflammation, diabetes, and obesity.
期刊介绍：
Inflammopharmacology is the official publication of the Gastrointestinal Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) and the Hungarian Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology Society (HECPS). Inflammopharmacology publishes papers on all aspects of inflammation and its pharmacological control emphasizing comparisons of (a) different inflammatory states, and (b) the actions, therapeutic efficacy and safety of drugs employed in the treatment of inflammatory conditions. The comparative aspects of the types of inflammatory conditions include gastrointestinal disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn''s disease), parasitic diseases, toxicological manifestations of the effects of drugs and environmental agents, arthritic conditions, and inflammatory effects of injury or aging on skeletal muscle. The journal has seven main interest areas:
-Drug-Disease Interactions - Conditional Pharmacology - i.e. where the condition (disease or stress state) influences the therapeutic response and side (adverse) effects from anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanisms of drug-disease and drug disease interactions and the role of different stress states
-Rheumatology - particular emphasis on methods of measurement of clinical response effects of new agents, adverse effects from anti-rheumatic drugs
-Gastroenterology - with particular emphasis on animal and human models, mechanisms of mucosal inflammation and ulceration and effects of novel and established anti-ulcer, anti-inflammatory agents, or antiparasitic agents
-Neuro-Inflammation and Pain - model systems, pharmacology of new analgesic agents and mechanisms of neuro-inflammation and pain
-Novel drugs, natural products and nutraceuticals - and their effects on inflammatory processes, especially where there are indications of novel modes action compared with conventional drugs e.g. NSAIDs
-Muscle-immune interactions during inflammation [...]
