Maerua angolensis
Deciduous tree widespread across the African savanna used in traditional medicine for fever, malaria, and respiratory conditions across East Africa.
Maerua angolensis is a deciduous tree native to African savannas, traditionally used for fever, malaria, and respiratory conditions. Its bark decoction exhibits antipyretic, antiplasmodial, and antimicrobial activities, attributed to alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, and sterols. Evidence is limited (Level C), primarily from in vitro and pilot studies.
Antipyretic effects may involve inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis via COX-2 modulation, while antiplasmodial activity is linked to alkaloid disruption of heme polymerization in Plasmodium. Flavonoids and tannins contribute to antimicrobial action by binding to bacterial cell walls and inhibiting efflux pumps. Anti-inflammatory effects are mediated through suppression of NF-κB and TNF-α pathways.
