Caltha palustris
Bright yellow wetland plant of northern hemisphere; flower buds historically pickled as capers; leaves used cautiously in folk medicine.
Marsh Marigold (Caltha palustris) is a bright yellow wetland plant whose flower buds are traditionally pickled as a food substitute, while the fresh plant is toxic due to protoanemonin. Folk uses include topical application for warts and bruises, and internal use as a diuretic, but evidence is limited to traditional reports. Key active compounds include protoanemonin, ranunculin, flavonoids, and saponins, with protoanemonin causing severe mucous membrane irritation.
Protoanemonin, the primary irritant compound, is released from ranunculin upon tissue damage and acts as a potent vesicant by inducing oxidative stress and inflammatory cytokine release in epithelial cells. Flavonoids and saponins may contribute mild diuretic effects via inhibition of renal tubular reabsorption, but clinical evidence is lacking. The plant's topical anti-wart action is attributed to protoanemonin's caustic properties, which can destroy hyperkeratotic tissue.
