Balsam-Apple
Momordica
Momordica，包括Momordica charantia（苦瓜）和Momordica balsamina等物种，在亚洲和非洲的传统草药医疗系统中被传统上用于治疗糖尿病，尽管具体的传统用途尚未得到充分记录。科学证据表明，与现有的抗糖尿病治疗方法结合使用时，补充苦瓜可能为血糖控制提供额外的好处。研究表明，Momordica balsamina叶片提取物中含有生物活性化合物，显示出潜在的抗糖尿病和抗氧化作用，但需要进一步研究来证实这些发现。该植物未被关联到显著的安全问题或药物相互作用；然而，全面的研究有限，在将其纳入治疗方案时应谨慎。

科学怎么说
- 辅助补充Momordica charantia与单独继续二联抗糖尿病治疗相比，血糖控制有所改善。
- 研究发现，McCIPK6 是一种线粒体蛋白，在苦瓜中通过增强ROS清除和激活CBF依赖的冷信号传导途径来正向调节对低温胁迫的耐受性。
- 研究在Momordica balsamina叶片提取物中鉴定出了具有不同程度降血糖和抗氧化活性的生物活性化合物，支持其传统用途但需要进一步调查。
- 该研究开发了一种特异性和灵敏性的LAMP检测方法，用于检测苦瓜中是否存在Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. momordicae。
- 高压优化的苦瓜叶提取物在植物化学成分、细胞毒性和抗炎活性方面均优于传统提取物。
