White-flowering Korean dandelion

Taraxacum coreanum, a species of dandelion native to East Asia, has not been traditionally used for medicinal purposes in any known practice. However, scientific studies have shown promising results with TC treatment in dairy cows, leading to reduced milk somatic cell counts and proinflammatory cytokines, along with increased serum antioxidative enzyme activities. In mice models, LT from T. coreanum was found to reduce brain pro-inflammatory mediators and improve tight junction protein expression following LPS treatment, indicating potential benefits for the brain and intestine. Additionally, TC treatment protected bEnd.3 cells against LPS-induced blood-brain barrier dysfunction by regulating tight junction proteins and inflammatory responses. The combination of CTS-TC also demonstrated efficacy in attenuating scopolamine-induced memory deficits through regulation of both inflammatory response and cholinergic function. No major safety concerns or drug interactions have been recorded for T. coreanum, but further research is needed to confirm these findings across a broader range of applications and populations.
