Since it is one of the most cultivated species of mulberry tree, it has caught the eye of researchers for its rich phytochemical profile as well as multi-purpose usages. The leaves, fruits, and other parts of the White Mulberry plant take on the role of valuable sources of bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, phenolic acids, terpenoids, and alkaloids. These secondary metabolites have a wide range of health benefits, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antidiabetic properties. Commonly used as dietary supplements, White Mulberry plant extracts have shown their great capacity in improving metabolic profile, decreasing the cardiovascular risk, and supporting overall health.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu17142262","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,10]],"date-time":"2025-07-10T09:38:27Z","timestamp":1752140307000},"page":"2262","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["White Mulberry Plant Extracts in Cardiovascular Prevention: An Update"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Valentina","family":"Trimarco","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neuroscience, Reproductive Sciences, and Dentistry, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Gallo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Seyedali","family":"Ghazihosseini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alessia","family":"Izzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Translational Research and Medical Education (ITME) Consortium, Academic Research Unit, 80100 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paola","family":"Rozza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Translational Research and Medical Education (ITME) Consortium, Academic Research Unit, 80100 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alessandra","family":"Spinelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6096-2768","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stefano","family":"Cristiano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carlo","family":"De Rosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Surgery and Dentistry, University of Salerno, 84081 Salerno, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Felicia","family":"Rozza","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"International Translational Research and Medical Education (ITME) Consortium, Academic Research Unit, 80100 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2158-6317","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carmine","family":"Morisco","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Advanced Biomedical Sciences, Federico II University, 80131 Naples, Italy"},{"name":"International Translational Research and Medical Education (ITME) Consortium, Academic Research Unit, 80100 Naples, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"401","DOI":"10.3923\/pjbs.2013.401.411","article-title":"Iranian medicinal plants for diabetes mellitus: A systematic review","volume":"16","author":"Rashidi","year":"2013","journal-title":"Pak.
