Cat's claw, The best Whole Herb Medicine for Prevention and Treatment of Inflammatory diseases

Cat's claw found in the tropical jungles of South and Central America, is a genus Uncaria, belonging to the family Rubiaceae, used in traditional medicine over two thousand years as a tonic, contraceptive, anti-inflammatory, and infectious agent, and to treat diarrhea, rheumatic disorders, acne, diabetes, cancer and diseases of the urinary tract, etc..

The chemical constituents of Cat's claw include ajmalicine, akuammigine, campesterol, catechin, carboxyl alkyl esters, chlorogenic acid, cinchonain, corynantheine, corynoxeine, daucosterol, epicatechin, harman, hirsuteine, hirsutine, iso-pteropodine, etc.

Inflammatory diseases are disorders and conditions caused by inflammation. Cat's claw may be the next generation of the medical plant for the treatment of inflammation against various diseases. According to the study by the Case Western Reserve University, Uncaria tomentosa exhibited high levels of anti-inflammatory effects through the interference of the pro-inflammatory expression.

Mitraphylline (MTP), the major pentacyclic oxindole alkaloid presented in Uncaria tomentosa, elicited an anti-inflammatory response that modulates neutrophil activation contributing to the attenuation of inflammatory episodes.

Furthermore, the ingredient, Mitraphylline (MTP) also showed a direct effect in the immune system by reduced almost 40% of the production of interleukin 4 (IL-4) and inhibited around 50% of the release of interleukins.

Indenture Stomatitis, a chronic oral disease that affects denture wearers is caused by Candida Albicans in inducing inflammation. Topical application of a gel of 2% U. tomentosa three times a day for 1 week, cat' claw significantly reduced signs of the disease, after 1 week of treatment.

In fact, the anti-inflammatory properties may also result from their ability to inhibit TNF-alpha, a central regulator of inflammation, and to lesser production of PGE2, a principal mediator of inflammation in disease production.

The effects of cat's claw in inhibited inflammatory diseases may result from its binding to proinflammatory cytokines and pathways. The use of the medical plant should be only prescribed by herbal for safety purposes.
