Inula japonica
East Asian Inula used in TCM for phlegm, nausea, and respiratory conditions.
Inula japonica, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, is primarily used for phlegm conditions, nausea, and respiratory ailments due to its expectorant, antiemetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Key active compounds include britannin, quercetin, isorhamnetin, and inulin, which contribute to its therapeutic effects. Evidence for its efficacy is limited (Level C), with most support derived from traditional use and preliminary studies.
The expectorant action of Inula japonica is attributed to inulin and britannin, which stimulate bronchial secretion and mucociliary clearance. Quercetin and isorhamnetin exhibit anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. The antiemetic effect may involve modulation of serotonin (5-HT3) receptors and dopamine D2 receptors in the chemoreceptor trigger zone, though direct evidence is lacking. Additionally, britannin has shown potential in suppressing NF-κB activation, further contributing to its anti-inflammatory profile.
