Balsam Pear
Momordica charantia
Momordica charantia，又称苦瓜或苦冬瓜，是一种传统植物，在亚洲和非洲的各种饮食中都有使用。传统上，它在不同文化中的药用价值并没有广泛记录。科学研究表明，补充Momordica charantia 可能为血糖控制提供额外的好处，特别是影响HbA1c 和空腹血浆葡萄糖水平。然而，这种证据的强度受到研究范围和数量有限的影响。该植物还显示出通过调节线粒体蛋白质提高对冷应激耐受性的潜力，并开发特定试验以检测如Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. momordicae等病原体。值得注意的是，在使用Momordica charantia时没有发现主要的安全问题或药物相互作用。

科学怎么说
- 补充Momordica charantia与单独继续二联抗糖尿病治疗相比，在血糖控制方面表现出额外的改善，主要影响HbA1c和空腹血浆葡萄糖水平
- 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。
- 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。
- MAP30 显著抑制了SK-Hep-1细胞增殖并诱导通过线粒体途径的凋亡。
- 高压优化的苦瓜叶提取物显示出增强的植物化学成分、抗氧化活性以及对癌细胞的选择性细胞毒性，而不影响成纤维细胞。
