Crotalaria juncea
Plante d'Asie du Sud-Est ; graines et feuilles utilisées en médecine foliaire pour les problèmes cutanés.
Crotalaria juncea, a South Asian fiber crop, has traditional folk use for external treatment of skin conditions and wound healing. Its seeds and leaves contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids, notably monocrotaline, which confer hepatotoxicity if ingested, limiting use to topical application. Modern applications focus on fiber production, while evidence for medicinal efficacy remains limited (Grade C).
Topical application of Crotalaria juncea leaf paste may exert astringent and antimicrobial effects due to tannins and other phenolic compounds, though specific mechanisms are poorly characterized. The pyrrolizidine alkaloid monocrotaline is metabolized by hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP3A4) to reactive pyrrole metabolites that cause sinusoidal endothelial cell damage and veno-occlusive disease upon systemic absorption. For wound healing, the fiber content may provide a physical scaffold, but no receptor-mediated pathways have been identified.
