Paeony
Paeonia
Paeonia is a traditional medicinal plant with roots in East Asian herbal medicine. Traditionally, it has been used for various conditions such as menstrual cramps and liver disorders, though specific uses vary among different traditions. Scientific evidence suggests that paeonol from Paeonia lactiflora can suppress prostate cancer progression by regulating the miR-145-5p/GOLM1 axis. Additionally, paeoniflorin has shown potential in reducing inflammation associated with osteoarthritis through upregulating SOCS3 expression in macrophages. Extracellular vesicles derived from Paeonia lactiflora have been found to improve diabetic peripheral neuropathy by modulating CCL21/CCR7 signaling and reducing Schwann cell injury and neuroinflammation. Albiflorin, another compound from the plant, has demonstrated multiple pharmacological activities including anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, and hepatoprotective effects, though its oral bioavailability remains a challenge for therapeutic applications. No major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for Paeonia.

Lo que dice la ciencia
- Paeonol suprime la progresión del cáncer de próstata regulando el eje miR-145-5p/GOLM1.
- Paeoniflorina upregula la expresión de SOCS3 en macrófagos, potencialmente reduciendo la inflamación en un modelo de OA de ratón.
- Vesículas extracelulares derivadas de Paeonia lactiflora mejoran la neuropatía periférica diabética regulando la señalización CCL21/CCR7, reduciendo el daño a las células de Schwann e inflamación neurológica.
- El albiflorina mostró múltiples actividades farmacológicas, incluyendo efectos antiinflamatorios, neuroprotectores y hepatoprotectores, pero la biodisponibilidad oral óptima sigue siendo incierta.
- Tres cultivares, 'Red Charm', 'Bartzella' y 'Sarah Bernhardt', mostraron una mayor tolerancia salina relativa bajo condiciones de estrés severo.
- Three novel monoterpenoids were isolated from Paeonia lactiflora roots and showed significant neuroprotective effects against H2O2-induced injury in PC12 cells.
