Chickweed (Stellaria spp.)



Interactions

Chickweed/Drug Interactions:
  • AntibioticsAntibiotics: A methanol extract of Stellaria holostea was found to have antibacterial activity against one bacterial species in vitro (4).
  • Antineoplastic agentsAntineoplastic agents: A crude drug derived from Stellaria media Cyrill. was evaluated for its anti-hepatoma activity on five human liver-cancer cell lines. Different effects were observed on cell lines containing hepatitis B virus genome, vs. non hepatitis B virus genome-containing cell lines (3).
  • Antiviral agentsAntiviral agents: A crude drug derived from Stellaria media Cyrill. was evaluated for its anti-hepatoma activity on five human liver-cancer cell lines. Different effects were observed on cell lines containing hepatitis B virus genome, vs. non hepatitis B virus genome-containing cell lines (3).
  • VasodilatorsVasodilators: Based on animal study, cyclic peptides (dichotomins J and K) isolated from the roots of Stellaria dichotoma showed a moderate vasorelaxant effect on rat aorta (9).

Chickweed/Herb/Supplement Interactions:
  • AntibacterialsAntibacterials: A methanol extract of Stellaria holostea was found to have antibacterial activity against one bacterial species in vitro (4).
