Abstract

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. (Licorice) is one of the most important medicinal plants indigenous to Iran. The main component of this species is a triterpenoid saponin compound called glycyrrhizic acid or glycyrrhizin that is 30-40 times sweeter than sucrose and is used in medicine, food and tobacco industries. Licorice has different therapeutic implications as it is used against Hepatitis c, skin and pulmonary diseases, and heart failures. It also improves the immune system and has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antimicrobial, antioxidant and anticancer properties. The aim of the present study is to demonstrate the pharmaceutical, phytochemical, and economic potentials of this plant.
