Abstract:
Bryophytes have historically been employed as verdant medicine in China, Native America and India. Phenolics, glycosides, fatty acids, other rare aromatic compounds and Terpenoids found in bryophytes may help prevent cancer and other chronic disorders. Liverworts have historically been utilized in traditional medicine and also as immu-nomodulators or immunostimulants. Diterpenoids, Lipophilic mono-, sesqui- and aromatic compounds assisting to the biological activities of liverworts. For their biological functions more than 220 aromatic compounds and 700 terpenoids and other chemicals discovered in liverworts scrutinized for their pharmacological, cytotoxic, immunostimulant and auto-immune efficacies.
