Caesalpinia sappan
Thai and Chinese medicinal heartwood used to invigorate blood, resolve stasis, and reduce swelling.
Sappanwood (Caesalpinia sappan) is a heartwood used in Traditional Chinese and Thai medicine to invigorate blood, resolve stasis, and reduce swelling. Its primary active compounds include brazilin, sappanchalcone, and protosappanin, which contribute to antiplatelet, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Modern research supports its use for menstrual disorders, wound healing, and infections, though clinical evidence remains limited.
Brazilin inhibits platelet aggregation by suppressing thromboxane A2 synthesis and activating adenylate cyclase, increasing cAMP levels. Sappanchalcone reduces inflammation via inhibition of NF-κB and COX-2 pathways, while protosappanin exhibits antimicrobial activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes. These mechanisms collectively support the herb's traditional use for blood stasis and swelling.
