Ximenia caffra
Southern African tree whose fruit is eaten for nutrition and whose bark and roots are used for inflammation, wound healing, and skin conditions.
Ximenia caffra, a Southern African tree, is traditionally used for wound healing and inflammatory conditions. Its bark and roots contain ximeninic acid, oleic acid, tannins, flavonoids, and sterols, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties.
The anti-inflammatory activity is attributed to ximeninic acid and flavonoids inhibiting COX-2 and LOX pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. Tannins and flavonoids provide astringent and antioxidant effects, promoting wound healing by enhancing collagen deposition and reducing oxidative stress. Antimicrobial effects are due to disruption of bacterial cell membranes by oleic acid and tannins.
