The protophyte of Gotu Kola is regarded as
the whole herb of Centella asiatica ( Linn. ) Urban, in the
family of Umbelliferae. As one of the Chinese herbal
medicines most in use in ancient China, it had millennia in the
history to be used in China, India &
Indonesia.
Shape: Perennial creeper herbaceous, with stem long
& thin, smooth also, covered by soft pale hairs. Leaves
present kidney-shape, 2—5cm in diameter. Double suspending
fruits are oblate, 2—2.5cm in length, with very clear major edge
and minor edge. Florescence: May—June; Fruit period:
July—Aug.
Cultivation:Fond of warm-humid weather in nature,
shady-resistant. Better in loose and fertile soil with
southern exposure. Generally breeding by piece of
plant. Dig the whole plant when 4—5 pieces of old plants
sprout, then cut the creeping stem and divide into single
one. Excavate ditches at *5cm of row space and grow a plant
every 6cm. Let the leaf blade appear on the ground, cover
with soil and press tightly with watering. Loosen soil and
remove weed when new plant is out, along with spreading organic
fertilizer. Repeat in June. Spread organic fertilizer
every harvest. Remove weed in Nov. along with spreading
fertilizer.
Harvest: whole herb administration. In general,
harvest the whole plant in summer and autumn. Remove silt,
use in fresh or leave to dry.

2 The main chemical
composition 1. Triterpenoid
glycosides & triterpenoid acids Gotu Kola mainly contains Triterpenoid
glycosides, such as asiaticoside, madecassoside, thankuniside,
brahmoside, brahminoside, isothankuniside and centelloside,
etc. In addition, there are also several dissociative
triterpenoid acids，such as
asiatic acid, madecassic acid, centic acid, centoic acid and
indocentic acid.
3 Efficacy and mechanism to
promote wound healing & improve looks
It’s a complicated biologic process
for repairing skin damage. Skin horniness of human body
forms HSKa & HSFb, which being as the major functional cells
throughout the whole repairing. The variation in cell
biological behaviour may affect directly or indirectly the final
repairing quality.
Gotu Kola extract, which has
clear effect to promote repairing skin damage, has been widely used
for external application in skin and for skin-care products with
sharp effect. Ad & Md are major ingredients of
triterpenoid glycosides from Gotu Kola extract. A study result
shows that Ad & Md present totally different biological
activity due to different structure for itself. Ad, Md is
non-toxic in the experiment off-body, with clear promotion effect
to HSKa & HSFb, also with promotion effect to the formation of
DNA. Comparing the biological activity between Ad & Md,
the former is stronger.
