Leeches are from the group of Annelida ringworms. These creatures feed on blood and are known as blood-sucking creatures. Species of blood-sucking leeches in the world have been studied because of the saliva they secrete, and these secretions are used in medical and therapeutic sciences. There are many bioactive compounds in leech saliva, including Hirudin, histamine, cholinesterase, hyaluronidase, antistatic, bedlinen, Eglin, Destabilase, acetylcholine, or glaze, Hematin, Dilantin, Decorin, Hirostatin, Pyraz enzyme, lectin, nitrogen monoxide. They are synthetase, collagenase, proteolytic enzymes, and antimicrobial agents. The use of leeches in medicine is based on the use of these bioactive compounds. The bioactive compounds of leech have blood coagulation inhibitors and anti-inflammatory agents that can play an effective role in improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and accelerating healing processes. The use of leech in the treatment of various diseases, including venous disorders, complications after plastic surgery, arthritis, improving the immune system, skin diseases, varicose veins, diabetes, chronic sinusitis, ear and eye infections, reducing pain, treating diseases Arthritis and inflammatory diseases are nowadays considered as a complementary approach in modern medicine. The increase in the global value and price of leeches, especially in recent decades, is the result of a better understanding of the therapeutic potential of bioactive compounds in the saliva of these organisms. The increasing demand for natural and low-complication treatment methods has caused the value of leeches to increase significantly in the medical field, which shows the great importance of leeches in the advancement of medical science and the treatment of diseases. |
