Gmelina arborea
Fast-growing deciduous tree of tropical Asia, one of the Dashamoola herbs in Ayurveda used as a tonic, diuretic, and treatment for various systemic conditions.
Gmelina arborea is a fast-growing deciduous tree native to tropical Asia, traditionally used in Ayurveda as a key component of the Dashamoola formula. It is valued for its hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antipyretic properties, and is employed as a general tonic and diuretic. The primary active compounds include gmelofuran, gmelin, iridoid glycosides, and alkaloids, which contribute to its therapeutic effects.
The hepatoprotective effects of Gmelina arborea are attributed to its iridoid glycosides and gmelofuran, which enhance antioxidant enzyme activity (e.g., superoxide dismutase, catalase) and inhibit lipid peroxidation in hepatocytes. Its anti-inflammatory action involves suppression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. The antipyretic effect is mediated through central prostaglandin inhibition, similar to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, while the diuretic action may involve modulation of renal aquaporins and electrolyte transport.
