Reynoutria japonica
Invasive shrub native to East Asia now widespread worldwide, whose root contains high concentrations of resveratrol and emodin, used in TCM for blood-moving and joint conditions.
Reynoutria japonica (Hu Zhang) is an invasive shrub whose root is rich in resveratrol, emodin, and anthraquinones. It is traditionally used in TCM for blood stasis, joint pain, and jaundice, and modern research supports anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cardiovascular benefits. Key active compounds include resveratrol, polydatin, and emodin, which modulate pathways such as NF-κB, AMPK, and estrogen receptors.
Resveratrol activates sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and AMPK, improving mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress. Emodin inhibits NF-κB and COX-2, exerting anti-inflammatory effects, while also acting as a mild laxative via anthraquinone receptors. Polydatin and physcion contribute to antioxidant and antitumor activities through modulation of apoptosis and cell cycle arrest. The herb's estrogenic activity is mediated by phytoestrogen binding to ERα and ERβ.
