TL;DR: Data show the potential of these natural products as health promoting agents and use against various types of seizure disorders and their properties on oxidative stress may contribute to the control of this neurological condition, however, further studies on the toxicological profile and mechanism of action of essential oils are needed.

TL;DR: The results suggest that certain molecular characteristics are important for the antifungal action of C. albicans strains and that the screened compounds exhibited different levels of activity depending on structural variation.

TL;DR: The cytotoxic influence of chemical substituents on the p-menthane structure, and analogues of perillyl alcohol were demonstrated, demonstrating replacement of C-C double bonds by epoxide groups in addition to the aldehyde group increases cytotoxicity.

TL;DR: The present results clearly indicate the anticonvulsant ability of cyano-carvone, which can be, at least in part, explained by the increased activity of the acetylcholinesterase enzyme, and the action mechanism can also be due to a direct activation of the antioxidant enzymes that could be associated with a reduction observed in oxidative stress in mice hippocampus.

TL;DR: MECs has antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activities in rodents and exhibited an anti- inflammatory effect during the carrageenan test, which was based on interference with inflammatory mediator synthesis.
