Launaea intybacea, growing in Cholistan Desert is being used in folk medicine system without authentication. In the present study dry powdered of L. intybacea was extracted separately with methanol, n-hexane, ethyl acetate and water. The methanolic extract (LI-M) afforded equal phenolic (20.68 ± 0.19 mgGAE/g extract) and flavonoid (20.92 ± 0.17 mgQE/g extract), whereas, hexane (LI-H) and ethyl acetate (LI-E) extracts showed the highest phenolic contents with values as 25.30 ± 0.14 and 25.38 ± 0.48 mg GAE/g extract, respectively, and LI-E showed significant flavonoid content (12.42 ± 0.29 mg GAE/g extract). The LI-M exhibited good inhibitory activity against DPPH and ABTS free radical (30.67 ± 0.07 and 58.28 ± 4.98 mg TE/g extract, respectively), while the LI-E showed free radical inhibitory values as 11.74 ± 0.27 and 44.79 ± 1.56 mg TE/g extract, respectively. LI-H only displayed significant inhibitory value (28.19 ± 1.24 mg TE/g extract) against ABTS radical. The highest CUPRAC activity (86.22 ± 1.35 mg TE/g extract) was also associated with LI-H, while LI-M and LI-E also showed significant activity with the values as 78.77 ± 0.88 and 76.77 ± 1.08 mg TE/g extract, respectively. FRAP activity was nearly equally associated with LI-M, LI-H and LI-E in the range of 47.46 to 40.07 mg TE/g extract, whereas, the phosphomolybdenum and metal chelating activities were observed higher for LI-H (1.29 ± 0.05 mmol TE/g extract and 27.48 ± 0.32 mg EDTAE/g extract, respectively, followed by LI-E. In enzyme inhibition assay, all the extracts were equally active (3.94 to 3.41 mg GALAE/g extract) against AChE, while LI-H showed the highest inhibitory values of 5.13 ± 0.28 mg GALAE/g extract against BChE. Against tyrosinase, the LI-M showed inhibitory value as 46.94 ± 1.53 mg KAE/g extract, while against α-amylase and α-glucosidase, the higher values (0.58 ± 0.02 and 1.80 ± 0.01 mmol ACAE/g extract, respectively) were associated with LI-E.

Regular intake of bioactive components in herbal supplements and functional foods exert significant long-term health promoting effects; however, there is limited knowledge about medicinal potential of many wild plants.
