Celastrales

Celastrales is an order of flowering plants that includes families such as Celastraceae, known for shrubs and small trees distributed across tropical and temperate regions. Members produce diverse secondary metabolites including alkaloids, triterpenoids, sesquiterpenes, and phenolic compounds. In biomedical research, Celastrales is significant for its anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and neuroprotective activities, particularly from compounds such as celastrol derived from Tripterygium species. The order is widely studied in pharmacology and natural product chemistry due to its potent bioactive triterpenoids and stress-response modulating properties.
