Cardiospermum halicacabum
A tropical climbing vine whose extract is used in European dermatology as a cortisone-free anti-inflammatory for eczema.
Cardiospermum halicacabum (heartseed) is a tropical climbing vine whose standardized extract is used in European dermatology as a cortisone-free topical anti-inflammatory for eczema and pruritus. Its primary active compounds include saponins, flavonoids, proanthocyanidins, and quebrachitol, which collectively reduce inflammation and itching.
The extract inhibits phospholipase A2 and cyclooxygenase pathways, decreasing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Saponins and flavonoids modulate cytokine release (e.g., IL-2, IL-4) and stabilize mast cells, reducing histamine-mediated pruritus. Proanthocyanidins provide antioxidant and astringent effects that support skin barrier repair.
