Prunus avium
European cherry tree; stalks (peduncles) used as diuretic; bark for cough; fruit highly nutritious.
Prunus avium (sweet cherry) is a European tree whose stalks (peduncles) are used as a diuretic, while the bark has antitussive properties and the fruit is highly nutritious. Its primary active compounds include anthocyanins, quercetin, and kaempferol, which contribute to anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Traditional uses include urinary conditions, cough, gout, and arthritis, with limited clinical evidence (Level C) supporting these applications.
The diuretic effect of cherry stalks is attributed to increased renal blood flow and inhibition of tubular reabsorption, possibly mediated by flavonoids like quercetin and kaempferol. Anthocyanins exhibit anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. The antioxidant action involves scavenging reactive oxygen species and upregulating endogenous antioxidant enzymes. The antitussive effect of the bark may be due to demulcent properties and mild suppression of the cough reflex.
