Verbesina encelioides
Southwestern US and Mexican herb with anti-inflammatory properties used in Sonoran folk medicine.
Verbesina encelioides, a member of the Asteraceae family native to the Southwestern US and Mexico, is traditionally used in Sonoran folk medicine for its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. Modern research has identified sesquiterpene lactones, flavonoids, and tannins as key active compounds, supporting its topical application for inflammation and skin conditions. Despite limited clinical evidence (Level C), the herb shows promise for anti-inflammatory and wound care uses.
The anti-inflammatory effects of Verbesina encelioides are primarily attributed to sesquiterpene lactones, which inhibit the NF-κB pathway and reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6. Flavonoids and tannins contribute additional antioxidant and astringent actions, promoting wound contraction and tissue repair. Topical application may also modulate COX-2 activity, further reducing local inflammation.
