According to our findings, people of Turkey use various Berberis species for both food and medicinal purposes. Fruits, roots, and flowers of Berberis crataegina are used to treat diarrhea, hemorrhoids, high blood sugar, and icterus. Berberis integerrima is used to treat hemorrhoids, and Berberis vulgaris is used to treat diabetes and hemorrhoids, as well as being used as an antipyretic, stomachic, appetizer, wound healer, and laxative. However, there is no known ethnobotanical use of Berberis cretica. Clinical studies have shown that berberine has the potential to be an effective treatment for various diseases, including diabetes, cancer, hypertension, obesity, and liver disease. Berberine is a promising natural agent with low toxicity that can be used in numerous clinical applications such as metabolic disorders, inflammation, and combined cancer therapy. While numerous studies have explored the pharmacological effects of Berberis vulgaris, research on other naturally occurring Berberis species in Turkey is lacking. For this reason, there is a need to conduct extensive clinical studies on Berberis species that grow naturally in Turkey. Overall, the use of Berberis species for their therapeutic properties has great potential, and further research is needed to fully understand their pharmacological properties and to explore new formulations and derivatives. This will help to maximize the benefits of Berberis species in the treatment of various diseases in humans.","PeriodicalId":124656,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Biodiversity","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139247211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
