Astragalus propinquus
This species is closely related to the primary Astragalus (A. membranaceus) and is sometimes used interchangeably in Chinese medicine. It is included in many patent Chinese herbal formulas for immune support. Like its close relative, it is valued for Qi tonification and immune-modulating properties.
Milk Vetch (Astragalus propinquus) is a close relative of Astragalus membranaceus, used in traditional Chinese medicine for Qi tonification and immune support. Modern evidence (Level C) suggests benefits for immune modulation, chronic fatigue, and as an adjunct in cancer support. Key active compounds include astragalosides, polysaccharides, and flavonoids, which contribute to its immunomodulatory and adaptogenic effects.
Astragalosides and polysaccharides enhance immune function by activating macrophages, natural killer cells, and T lymphocytes via toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and NF-κB pathways. The saponins and flavonoids exhibit antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting COX-2 and iNOS. Additionally, astragalosides may upregulate telomerase activity and protect against cellular senescence. The herb also modulates cytokine production, including IL-2 and IFN-γ, supporting its use in immune deficiency and fatigue.
