Celosia cristata · Crested Cock's Comb
Celosia cristata, commonly known as cock's comb, is a traditional plant used primarily for ornamental purposes. While it has not been traditionally utilized in medicine, recent studies have explored its potential in various applications. Scientific evidence suggests that Celosia cristata may possess anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, particularly when combined with other compounds such as Dendrobium polysaccharides and adapalene nanoparticles, showing promise in treating acne vulgaris. Additionally, the plant's betalain pigments have been found to be highly stable under certain conditions, making them potentially useful for colorant applications. In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that Celosia cristata flower extract may also play a role in preventing adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation, along with improving metabolic parameters in mice. Safety data is currently limited but does not report any major issues. There are no recorded drug interactions associated with Celosia cristata as of the current evidence available.

Ce que dit la science
- Cette étude a développé une méthode HPTLC-MS pour différencier le Sésame de Celosia de C. argentea et C. cristata en fonction de marqueurs chimiques distinctifs.
- Cette étude a développé un système de micropiquants basé sur des polysaccharides de Dendrobium chargés de flavonoïdes de Celosia cristata et de nanoparticules d'adapalène qui ont montré des propriétés anti-inflammatoires et antibactériennes efficaces pour traiter l'acné vulgaris.
- L'étude a montré que la copigmentation avec de la gomme arabe, de la pectine, du protéinate de lait, de l'acide ascorbique et du carbonate de calcium (traitement T7) a montré la plus grande stabilité des pigments betalains de Celosia cristata pendant le stockage.
- L'extrait de fleurs de Celosia cristata a montré du potentiel pour prévenir la différenciation des adipocytes et l'accumulation de lipides tant in vitro que in vivo, améliorant les paramètres métaboliques chez les souris sur une alimentation riche en gras.
