Crossopteryx febrifuga
Arbre de l'AFRICA centrale ; écorce utilisée comme traitement classique contre la fièvre.
Crossopteryx febrifuga is a Sub-Saharan African tree whose bark is traditionally used as a classic fever remedy, particularly for malaria and dysentery. Modern research indicates antipyretic, antimalarial, and antidiarrheal activities, attributed to quinovic acid glycosides, tannins, flavonoids, and alkaloids. Despite its widespread traditional use, clinical evidence remains limited (Level C).
The antipyretic and antimalarial effects are primarily mediated by quinovic acid glycosides, which inhibit Plasmodium falciparum growth by interfering with heme detoxification pathways. Tannins and flavonoids contribute to antidiarrheal activity through astringent effects on intestinal mucosa and inhibition of enterotoxin-induced secretion. Additionally, alkaloids may modulate inflammatory cytokine production via NF-κB pathway inhibition.
