Abuta grandifolia
Abuta grandifolia
Abuta grandifolia, a plant native to Central America, has not been extensively documented in traditional medicine. Scientific studies have primarily focused on its biological properties rather than therapeutic uses. Research indicates that various parts of the plant, including fruit, leaves, and seeds, are commonly consumed. There is preliminary evidence suggesting potential renoprotective effects from Abuta grandifolia, which could help prevent kidney function reductions due to ischemia. Additionally, krukovine, a compound derived from this plant, has shown antiproliferative activity in oxaliplatin-resistant pancreatic cancer cells and organoids, with enhanced efficacy when combined with oxaliplatin. It also inhibits the growth and proliferation of KRAS-mutated lung cancer cells by downregulating RAF-ERK and AKT pathways. No major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions have been identified to date.

Ce que dit la science
- L'examen a révélé une prédominance dans la consommation de fruits, feuilles et graines représentant 85,8% des parties utilisées en tout.
- L'étude suggère que Abuta grandifolia pourrait favoriser la rénoprotéction, empêchant certaines réductions de la fonction rénale dues à l'ischémie.
- Crèmes issues d'Abuta grandifolia inhibent le croissance et la prolifération des cellules du cancer du poumon mutées dans KRAS par la régulation des chemins RAF-ERK et AKT.
- KV montre des effets antiprolifératifs chez les cellules du cancer pancréatique résistant à l'oxaliplatine et les organoïdes, avec une inhibition accrue lorsqu'il est combiné avec l'oxaliplatine.
