Italian Crocus

Crocus sativus

藏红花（学名：Crocus sativus），又称番红花，是一种传统植物，主要因其鲜艳的颜色和独特的风味在烹饪中使用。它在各种文化中有悠久的历史，特别是在中东和地中海地区，因其丰富的历史和治疗特性而受到重视。尽管没有记录显示藏红花有传统的医疗用途，但科学研究表明，降雨量和最低温度等因素可以影响藏红花的质量，从而影响基因表达和柱头分化。还鉴定出了57种在不同阶段的藏红花花瓣生长过程中参与类胡萝卜素代谢的发育调控蛋白。低浓度的化合物safranal（藏红花中的成分）具有神经保护抗氧化作用；然而，高剂量会导致线粒体解偶联和细胞死亡。动物研究表明，40 mg/kg的藏红花（TSC）可以降低暴露于双酚A（BPA）的小鼠的氧化应激水平和肝酶水平。没有记录到藏红花的重大安全问题或药物相互作用。
