Leontopodium
Leontopodium
Leontopodium, commonly known as edelweiss, is a traditional Alpine plant with origins in the mountainous regions of Europe and Asia. Traditionally, it has not been extensively used in any specific medical or folk practices. Scientific evidence suggests that cosmetics containing meristem cells from Leontopodium alpinum and other plants were safe and showed some improvement in skin markers among menopausal women. In agricultural settings, supplementation with Leontopodium alpinum reduced liver enzyme activities, cholesterol, and triglycerides while enhancing hematological parameters and gene expression related to metabolism and antioxidants in broiler chickens. Additionally, studies identified six compounds from various alpine plants, including Leontopodium, as potential PDE4 inhibitors, with one analogue showing comparable activity to known inhibitors. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for this plant.

ما يقوله العلم
- وجدت الدراسة أن المستحضرات الجلدية التي تحتوي على خلايا ميريستيم لنتوديوم الألبينوم وأخرى من النباتات كانت آمنة وتحسين بعض علامات الجلد في نساء ما بعد انقطاع الطمث.
- تمكّنت تكميمات ليوتوبيديوم الألبينوم من خفض نشاط الإنزيمات الكبدية والكوليسترول والدهون الثلاثية، بينما أحسن من معلمات الدم وتعبير الجينات المتعلقة بالتحلل الغذائي والأكسدة لدى الدجاج البلح.
- وجدت الدراسة أن الجذور والأوراق من العديد من النباتات الجبلية، بما في ذلك ليونتوبيديوم، تستضيف بكتيريا تثبيت الأكسجين، على الرغم من أن تنوع الجذور أكبر.
- تم تحديد ست مركبات، بما في ذلك ليوليجين، كمثبطة محتملة لPDE4، مع أنموذج واحد، LT-104A، يظهر نشاطًا مقارنًا بنشاط المثبطة المعروفة.
