Passiflora · Passionflower
Passiflora, commonly known as passionflower, is a plant traditionally used in various cultures for its purported calming and sedative effects. However, there are no specific traditional uses or practices recorded for Passiflora itself. Scientific evidence suggests that certain components of the plant may have beneficial properties; for instance, a novel Sphingomonas species isolated from passionfruit leaves shows potential for promoting plant health through volatile organic compounds. Additionally, Passiflora edulis Sims peel fermentation polysaccharide (PP-FP) has been shown to reduce UVB-induced oxidative stress and enhance skin barrier integrity in both cell cultures and mice. Genetic studies have revealed substantial genetic diversity among 88 Passiflora genotypes using iPBS markers, while PeMYB6 and PeMYB114 compete with PebHLH42 to influence anthocyanin biosynthesis. To date, no major safety issues or drug interactions have been recorded for this plant.

Ce que dit la science
- A novel Sphingomonas species, Sphingomonas incarnata sp. nov., was isolated from passionfruit leaves and shows potential for plant health through volatile organic compounds.
- Les polysaccharides de l'écorce de Passiflora edulis Sims par fermentation ont réduit le stress oxydatif induit par les UVB, préservé la fonction mitochondriale et renforcé l'intégrité de la barrière cutanée chez les cellules et les souris.
- Cette étude a révélé une grande diversité génétique parmi 88 gènes de Passiflora en utilisant des marqueurs iPBS.
- "PeMYB6 concurrence PeMYB114 pour se lier à PebHLH42, influençant la biosynthèse des anthocyanes dans le fruit d'Ananas."
- Une supplémentation avec la peau de la baie de passion purpore a réduit les niveaux systémiques d'IgE et les niveaux pulmonaires de l'IL-4 et de l'IL-5 dans un modèle murin d'asthme.
- Les nanoparticules d'oxyde de zinc biosynthétisées à l'aide de Streptomyces werraensis ont montré une activité antibactérienne puissante et un potentiel antioxydant.
- Cette étude caractérise les profils nutritionnel et chimique des fruits de Passiflora edulis cultivés en Sicile, identifiant leur potentiel comme sources de composés bioactifs.
- L'utilisation intégrée du silicium et des fumiers d'ovins a amélioré l'absorption des nutriments, l'équilibre ionique et la production de fruits chez le passionnier acide sous des conditions semi-arides.
