Gaultheria Ethnobotany and Bioactivity: Blueberry Relatives with Anti-inflammatory, Antioxidant, and Anticancer Constituents.

Gaultheria, a genus belonging to the Ericaceae family, is typically a shrub that produces berries, and closely resembles the blueberry genus Vaccinium. Gaultheria species are used worldwide especially as food and medicine in China. Certain Gaultheria species are biologically active, as antioxidants, anti-inflammatories, and cytotoxic agents. Through literature searches and field surveys, the results of ethnobotanical uses, especially in China, as well as in vitro and in vivo studies are reviewed critically. This review examines the chemistry and bioactivity of this under-studied plant genus, a

Chemical analysis of incense smokes used in Shaxi, Southwest China: a novel methodological approach in ethnobotany.

AIM OF THE STUDY: Characterization and comparative analysis of the main VOCs (volatile organic compounds) present in the smoke of 11 experimentally combusted plant species used as incense in Shaxi, Southwest China. Substances which may be responsible for the pleasant smell of the smokes as well as substances with a potential pharmacological activity are discussed. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We adopt the dynamic headspace sorption method for the collection of smoke samples as a novel methodological approach in ethnobotany. The VOCs were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Intestinal metabolism and absorption mechanism of multi-components in Gaultheria leucocarpa var. yunnanensis - An assessment using in situ and in vitro models, comparing gut segments in pathological with physiological conditions.

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Dianbaizhu (Gaultheria leucocarpa var. yunnanensis) as a Chinese folk medicine exerts significant treatment effects on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with a long historical time. Our previous reports showed that the anti-rheumatic arthritis fraction (ARF) extracted and enriched from Dianbaizhu possessed good druggability, which was better than its single active ingredients. However, the intestinal transport characteristics and mechanism of ARF have not been elucidated to date. AIM OF THE STUDY: In order to illustrate the role of active ingredients of ARF in alleviati

Seguridad y Precauciones

La seguridad en el uso de Gaultheria reticulata debe abordarse con extrema cautela debido a su composición química, específicamente por la presencia de derivados de salicilatos (como el salicilato de metilo y la gaultherina), los cuales son estructuralmente similares a la aspirina. (1) En el caso de embarazo y lactancia, el uso de esta planta está estrictamente contraindicado. Los salicilatos pueden atravesar la barrera placentaria y la barrera hematoencefálica, lo que representa un riesgo de toxicidad fetal. En el embarazo, la exposición a dosis elevadas de salicilatos se ha asociado con complicaciones como el cierre prematuro del ductus arterioso en el feto y riesgos de sangrado. Durante la lactancia, los compuestos pueden excretarse en la leche materna, lo que podría provocar síntomas de salicilismo en el lactante, como irritabilidad o alteraciones metabólicas. (2) Para niños menores de 12 años, el uso debe evitarse por completo.
