Bougainvillea glabra
Plante ornementale largement utilisée dans la médecine populaire mexicaine pour les affections respiratoires, la toux et comme diurétique ; les fleurs sont la partie médicinale.
Bugambilia (Bougainvillea glabra) is an ornamental plant whose flowers are used in Mexican folk medicine primarily for respiratory conditions such as cough and bronchitis, as well as for its diuretic and antidiabetic properties. Its key active compounds include betacyanins, betaxanthins, flavonoids, pinitol, and tannins, which contribute to its antitussive, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycemic effects.
The antitussive and anti-inflammatory actions are attributed to flavonoids and betalains that inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase pathways, reducing airway inflammation and mucus production. Pinitol, a cyclic polyol, exhibits insulin-like activity by enhancing glucose uptake via GLUT4 translocation and modulating insulin signaling pathways, contributing to antidiabetic effects. The diuretic effect is likely due to flavonoids and betaxanthins increasing renal blood flow and sodium excretion.
