Macaranga tanarius
Fast-growing pioneer tree of Southeast Asian forests used in Philippine and Indonesian traditional medicine for wound healing, skin conditions, and liver support.
Macaranga tanarius is a fast-growing pioneer tree from Southeast Asia, traditionally used in Philippine and Indonesian medicine for wound healing, skin conditions, and liver support. Modern research supports its anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, and antimicrobial activities, attributed to active compounds such as tanariflavanones, macarangaflavones, flavonoids, and tannins. Clinical evidence (Grade B) corroborates its traditional uses, particularly for wound healing and inflammation.
The anti-inflammatory effects of Macaranga tanarius are mediated through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Its hepatoprotective action involves upregulation of antioxidant enzymes via Nrf2 pathway activation, while antimicrobial activity is due to disruption of bacterial cell membranes by tannins and flavonoids. The wound-healing properties are attributed to enhanced fibroblast proliferation and collagen deposition, likely driven by macarangaflavones.
