Ambrosia arborescens

Ambrosia arborescens

Ambrosia arborescens is a plant traditionally not associated with any specific medicinal uses. Scientific studies have shown that its essential oil exhibits moderate anticholinesterase activity and limited antioxidant capacity, while microwave-assisted extraction using ethyl lactate yielded similar compound profiles but slightly higher antioxidant activity compared to traditional methanol maceration. The ethanolic extract demonstrated a dose-dependent decrease in tumor volume in rats with induced breast cancer. However, the aqueous extract at 2000 mg/kg caused mild congestion in kidneys and liver with increased biochemical parameters, though no significant toxicological changes were observed in other organs. To date, there are no major safety concerns or recorded drug interactions noted for Ambrosia arborescens.
