Cuscuta europaea
Dodder parasite européen ; thé de plante entière utilisé en médecine populaire pour les affections hépatiques et les troubles urinaires.
Cuscuta europaea, a parasitic plant used in European folk medicine, is traditionally employed for liver conditions and urinary disorders. Its primary active compounds include flavonoids, alkaloids, organic acids, and tannins, which contribute to its hepatoprotective, diuretic, and antipyretic properties. Evidence is limited (Level C), primarily from preclinical studies and traditional use.
The hepatoprotective effects are attributed to flavonoids and organic acids that modulate oxidative stress pathways, including upregulation of Nrf2 and inhibition of NF-κB, reducing liver inflammation. The diuretic action may involve alkaloid-mediated inhibition of renal tubular reabsorption, while antipyretic effects are likely due to tannins and flavonoids acting on prostaglandin synthesis via COX inhibition. However, specific receptor targets remain poorly characterized.
