Cajanus cajan
Légume de base en zones tropicales; feuilles et racines utilisées en médecine populaire caribéenne et africaine pour l'anémie et la drépanocytose.
Cajanus cajan, a tropical legume, is traditionally used in Caribbean and African folk medicine for anemia and sickle cell disease. Its primary active compounds include cajanol, cajanin, flavonoids, protein, iron, and folic acid, which contribute to anti-sickling, nutritive, anti-inflammatory, and wound-healing properties. Evidence is limited (Level C), with most data derived from pilot studies and traditional use.
Cajanol and cajanin inhibit sickle cell hemoglobin polymerization by binding to hydrophobic pockets, reducing sickling and improving red blood cell deformability. Flavonoids such as quercetin and luteolin exert anti-inflammatory effects via COX-2 and NF-κB pathway inhibition. The high iron and folate content supports erythropoiesis, while protein and amino acids aid tissue repair and immune function.
