Description

Oxychelidonine is a chemical compound that is extracted from the leaves of the Oxycoccus vernus plant. Studies have shown that oxychelidonine has significant cytotoxicity against various cancer cells, including those of the breast, prostate, and colon. It is believed to induce apoptotic cell death by inhibiting DNA synthesis and by blocking protein synthesis in cancer cells. Oxychelidonine also inhibits bacterial growth. The extract shows significant cytotoxicity against gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of Aspergillus fumigatus, which is a fungus that causes aspergillosis, a type of lung infection. Oxychelidonine can be used in moxibustion treatments for certain conditions such as bronchitis or asthma. Moxibustion involves burning an herb called mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) on or
