Phytochemical profiling, antioxidant potential, and UHPLC-HRMS analysis of Phlomis genus aerial parts for therapeutic applications.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, there has been growing interest in exploring the therapeutic potential of Phlomis species, prompting numerous scientific studies on their pharmacological properties. However, the specific therapeutic applications of Phlomis remain underexplored, warranting further investigation. Iran, as one of the primary centers of diversity for the Phlomis genus in Asia, is home to 20 species, 9 of which are endemic to the region. This study aimed to conduct a comprehensive investigation and comparison of aerial part extracts from 56 Phlomis samples across 6 distinct Iranian species, focusing on their unique phenolic composition, antioxidant properties, and therapeutic potential. The analysis included a detailed assessment of total phenolics, flavonoids, tannin, phenylalanine ammonia-ly
