Aloe marlothii
Grand aloe arborescent d'Afrique du Sud et du Swaziland orientaux, présentant des épis de fleurs oranges horizontaux.
Aloe marlothii is a large tree aloe native to northeastern South Africa and Swaziland, traditionally used for its laxative and wound-healing properties. Modern applications include short-term relief of constipation and topical treatment of minor wounds, attributed to anthraquinone compounds such as aloin and emodin. Evidence is limited (Level C), with most data derived from small pilot studies and traditional use.
The laxative effect is primarily due to aloin and other anthraquinones, which irritate the colonic mucosa and stimulate peristalsis via prostaglandin release and inhibition of water reabsorption. Topical wound healing involves anti-inflammatory actions through inhibition of cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Additionally, anthrones and anthraquinones exhibit antimicrobial activity against certain skin pathogens.
