Zinnia elegans
Mexican ornamental Asteraceae with limited folk medicinal use for eye conditions and fever.
Zinnia elegans is an ornamental Asteraceae species with limited use in Mexican folk medicine for eye conditions and fever. Its primary bioactive compounds include quercetin, kaempferol, anthocyanins, and other flavonoids, which contribute to antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Current evidence is limited (Grade C), primarily from in vitro and pilot studies.
Flavonoids such as quercetin and kaempferol act as free radical scavengers and upregulate endogenous antioxidant enzymes (e.g., superoxide dismutase, catalase). Anti-inflammatory effects involve inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and suppression of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling, reducing pro-inflammatory cytokines. Anthocyanins may provide vasoprotective and anti-edematous actions, supporting traditional use for ocular inflammation.
