Dipsacus fullonum
A European/Chinese herb whose root (Xu Duan in TCM) is specific for strengthening bones, tendons, and treating Lyme disease.
Teasel (Dipsacus fullonum) root, known as Xu Duan in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is primarily used to strengthen bones, tendons, and ligaments, and has gained modern Western popularity for supporting Lyme disease treatment. Its key active compounds include iridoids (e.g., dipsacoside), saponins, caffeic acid derivatives, and scabioside, which contribute to osteogenic, anti-inflammatory, and connective tissue repair properties.
Teasel promotes osteoblast differentiation and bone mineralization via activation of the BMP-2/Smad signaling pathway, likely mediated by its iridoid glycosides. Its anti-inflammatory effects involve inhibition of COX-2 and NF-κB, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6. Additionally, saponins and caffeic acid derivatives may enhance collagen synthesis and modulate matrix metalloproteinases, supporting connective tissue integrity and repair.
