East Indian kino

Pterocarpus marsupium

Pterocarpus marsupium is a traditional Indian medicinal plant used in Ayurveda. It has been traditionally employed for its purported anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic properties, though specific uses vary among practitioners. Scientific evidence suggests that Pterocarpus marsupium heartwood extract may modestly reduce triglycerides and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and decrease lipid infiltration in a high-fat diet-induced atherosclerosis model. A standardized extract (200 mg/day) was found to be safe for healthy adults over two months, with no significant adverse events reported. The polyherbal blend PPV, containing Pterocarpus marsupium bark extract, Pinus strobus bark extract, and ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate, has been shown to inhibit melanogenesis by activating NAD+ nicotinamide nucleotide adenylyltransferase (NNT) and regulating oxidative stress. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Pterocarpus marsupium use in humans.
