Creeping Buttercup

Ranunculus repens

Ranunculus repens, commonly known as creeping buttercup, is a plant traditionally used in some folk remedies but lacks specific documented traditional uses. Scientific evidence suggests that RRME (Ranunculus repens methanol extract) down-regulates galectins 4 and 9 and mitigates chronic pancreatitis in experimental rat models, indicating potential therapeutic benefits. The plant has been noted for its ability to selectively uptake strontium, barium, phosphorus, and sulfur in areas with high natural strontium levels, though the broader implications of this are not well-established. A study found that while diet influences metabolic pathways, host genetic background is the dominant factor determining gut microbiota composition in sympatric crane species, which does not directly relate to RRME but provides insights into plant interactions. The phyllotaxis patterns of both Linum usitatissimum and Ranunculus repens were accurately reproduced using a new model developed from this research. Safety records for the plant show no major issues recorded, and there are currently no reported drug interactions.
