Aralia nudicaulis
Common woodland perennial of North America; roots used as flavoring and medicine by Indigenous peoples and early settlers.
Wild Sarsaparilla (Aralia nudicaulis) is a North American woodland perennial whose roots have been used traditionally as a blood purifier and for rheumatism. Modern research indicates anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, attributed to saponins, araliosides, and phenolic compounds. It is primarily employed as an alterative tonic, though clinical evidence remains limited (Level C).
The anti-inflammatory effects are mediated through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and suppression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling, likely due to araliosides and flavonoids. Antioxidant activity involves scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and upregulation of endogenous antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase. Saponins may also modulate immune function by enhancing phagocytosis and stimulating cytokine production, though these pathways require further elucidation.
