ABSTRACT: The genus Sideritis consists of 100-150 or more species, growing mainly in the countries around the Mediterranean area. The genus is particularly rich in diterpenoids, occurring in almost all the species, and shows many different carbon skeleta. Several species are still used in traditional medicine. Recent studies indicated the occurrence of interesting biological activities, like anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antimicrobial, anti-HIV replication, antifeedant, antiulcerogenic, analgesic, and antihypoglycaemic.
