CentellagenusA plant of the family APIACEAE which is the source of asiatic acid and asiaticoside. Centella asiatica (L.) Urb. = Hydrocotyle asiatica L. is known for effect on peripheral circulation.[MeSH]ApiaceaeA large plant family in the order Apiales, also known as Umbelliferae. Most are aromatic herbs with alternate, feather-divided leaves that are sheathed at the base. The flowers often form a conspicuous flat-topped umbel. Each small individual flower is usually bisexual, with five sepals, five petals, and an enlarged disk at the base of the style. The fruits are ridged and are composed of two parts that split open at maturity.[MeSH]

Treatment

Madecassoside treatment decreased the concentrations of sIgA in small intestine content and IFN-γ in small intestinal tissue. It also downregulated the ratios of CD4+/CD8+ in the epithelium and laminar propria. Treatment was found to improve locomotor dysfunction and to protect dopaminergic neuron.
