Phytochemicals and Bioactivities of the Halophyte Sea Mayweed (<i>Tripleurospermum maritimum</i> L.).

ABSTRACT: Sea mayweed (Tripleurospermum maritimum L. syn. Matricaria maritima) is a halophytic species widely distributed along the Atlantic shoreline. Unlike other Tripleurospermum species, the chemical composition and biological activities of this halophyte have received no attention. Here, a hydroalcoholic extract of sea mayweed leaves was evaluated for in vitro antioxidant (DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP bioassays), anti-inflammatory (NO reduction in RAW 264.7 macrophages), anti-diabetic (alpha-glucosidase inhibition), neuroprotective (inhibition of acetylcholinesterase), and skin protective (tyrosinase, melanogenesis, elastase, and collagenase inhibition) activities. Solid-liquid partition chromatography of the extract and NMR characterization of its fractions allowed the identificat
