Stephanandra incisa
Japanese ornamental shrub used in traditional Japanese folk medicine for liver conditions and as an anti-inflammatory.
Stephanandra incisa is a Japanese ornamental shrub traditionally used in folk medicine for liver conditions and inflammation. Its primary active compounds include tannins, flavonoids, phenolics, and sterols, which contribute to its hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. Evidence is limited to pilot studies and traditional use, supporting its role as a digestive tonic and wound healing agent.
The hepatoprotective effects are attributed to flavonoids and phenolics that scavenge free radicals and inhibit lipid peroxidation, thereby reducing oxidative stress in hepatocytes. Anti-inflammatory actions involve suppression of NF-κB pathway and downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6, mediated by sterols and tannins. Additionally, tannins may promote wound healing through astringent and antimicrobial effects, while flavonoids enhance digestive function by stimulating gastric secretions and modulating gut motility.
