Japanese Nutmeg Tree

Torreya nucifera

Torreya nucifera，又称中国肉豆蔻或云杉，是一种起源于东亚的传统植物。尽管其在传统医学中的使用尚未广泛记录，但研究表明某些从该植物中提取的化合物具有潜力。研究指出，在 Torreya nucifera 中发现的活性成分 ippin 可以选择性地诱导营养不良条件下结肠癌细胞的死亡，通过破坏自噬和线粒体自噬。此外，从植物中鉴定出的十种酚类化合物显示出调节 NF-kB 信号通路治疗类风湿关节炎的潜力。Torreya nucifera 的精油产量在一年内稳定，但在不同地区之间差异显著，在 Hwasun 夏季和秋季 D-柠檬烯水平最高。遗传研究表明，两种植物品种之间的分化程度很高，估计它们大约在177万到303万年前分异。对于这种植物没有记录到重大安全问题或药物相互作用。
