Eucalyptus citriodora
Écorce lumineuse d'Eucalyptus associée aux propriétés répulsives contre les pests et les propriétés analgésiques.
Eucalyptus citriodora, commonly known as lemon-scented gum, is a medicinal plant valued for its insect repellent properties, primarily due to the compound p-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD), which is approved by the CDC for use in repellents. It also demonstrates analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities, attributed to citronellal and citronellol, and has traditional uses for pain relief and antimicrobial applications. The essential oil is applied topically for these purposes.
The insect repellent action of PMD involves modulation of insect olfactory receptors, leading to avoidance behavior. For analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects, citronellal and citronellol interact with transient receptor potential (TRP) channels, such as TRPV1 and TRPA1, and inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing prostaglandin synthesis. Additionally, these compounds may enhance GABAergic transmission, contributing to mild sedation and pain relief.
