Baby Rose

Rosa multiflora

Rosa multiflora is a deciduous shrub native to East Asia, particularly Japan and Korea. While traditionally used in some Asian cultures for various purposes such as ornamental gardening and landscaping, no specific traditional medicinal uses have been recorded. Scientific studies suggest that Rosa multiflora's RmTCP5 gene modulates leaf development by affecting auxin and cytokinin homeostasis, and its RmMYB27 transcription factor positively influences cold tolerance through the regulation of RmCOR47. Additionally, a transcriptome analysis revealed that RmNAC43 is involved in lignin biosynthesis during prickle hardening. A polyphenol-rich extract from Rosa multiflora (var. platyphylala) has shown potential in reducing body weight and fat mass while maintaining lean mass in overweight humans, possibly through appetite suppression; however, the evidence is limited and more research is needed to confirm these findings. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Rosa multiflora.
