Asian journal of pharmaceutical researchSummary: Mangrove plants have been proven for their value as a source of bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential and mechanism on many diseases. Mangroves plants which are unique in ecological and biological activities, grow in the tidal coasts of tropical and sub-tropical regions. The present review compiled and reviewed the research finding on anti-inflammatory compounds that have been studied on tropical mangrove plants of Indian coastal regions including Andaman and Nicobar Islands. A total of 136 research finding published during 1982-2018, were reviewed and out of which, 41 research studies were concerning anti-inflammatory properties of mangroves. This review summarizes the chemical structures, molecular weight, formulae, solvent and their biological activities of the mangroves, that have been proven and published at various times by various researchers. This data suggested that, there is huge potential in the application of anti-inflammatory properties of tropical Indian mangroves. Further, there is a large research gap on studies related extraction of bioactive compounds from mangrove species of Andaman and Nicobar Island (ANI), while comparing the amount of research studies from regions namely Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha, West Bengal and Puducherry. This compilation provides an insight on mangrove based studies for drug discovery related research.

Mangrove plants have been proven for their value as a source of bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential and mechanism on many diseases. Mangroves plants which are unique in ecological and biological activities, grow in the tidal coasts of tropical and sub-tropical regions. The present review compiled and reviewed the research finding on anti-inflammatory compounds that have been studied on tropical mangrove plants of Indian coastal regions including Andaman and Nicobar Islands. A total of 136 research finding published during 1982-2018, were reviewed and out of which, 41 research studies were concerning anti-inflammatory properties of mangroves.
