	Trees of Wisconsin: Crataegus mollis, downy hawthorn
		There are about 40 species of Crataegus in Wisconsin, 17 of them are considered to be trees, and they are difficult to distinguish from one another.
		Crataegus mollis, shown here, is one of about 6-8 relatively common species.
		Most species of Crataegus appear to prefer open sun or light shade and none seems to thrive under full canopy in the long run, although they may persist in moderately shaded sites for at least 10 years.

		Crataegus was formerly employed in the treatment of heart disease but is of doubtful value' Pharmacologically there are considerable similarities between the actions of tincture of crataegus and tincture of digitalis.
		On the other hand it reduces blood pressure, and in 10 cases of hypertension treated with 60 minims of tincture of crataegus 3 times daily, there was a uniform lowering of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
		Crataegus species have been described as sedatives [664], however the method of testing for this has been disputed [665] so evidence is not yet available.

	Use of crataegus formulations for prophylaxis and treatment of neoplastic diseases - Patent 6440451
		The present invention relates to the use of formulations from Crataegus for the preparation of pharmaceutical preparations or food supplements for the prophylaxis and/or treatment of tumour diseases, the formulations substantially comprising constituents of Crataegus which are soluble in polar solvents.
		Crataegus is widespread throughout the world in the temperate climate zones on the northern and southern hemispheres and in the high mountains of the tropics (R. Kaul, "Der Wei.beta.dorn: Botanik, Inhaltsstoffe, Qualitatskontrolle, Pharmakologie, Toxikologie und Klinik [The Hawthorn: Botany, constituents, quality control, pharmacology, toxicology and clinical aspects]", 1st edition, Wissenschaftliche Verlagsgesellschaft, Stuttgart 1998).
		Crataegus extracts which had been obtained with 70% aqueous ethanol and had been dissolved in DMSO after removal of the extraction agent showed an action profile identical to that of the extract prepared with 45% ethanol as the extraction agent, with the exception of the weaker action on the osteosarcoma cells.

		In: Arzneimittelforschung (1995 Nov) 45(11):1157-61 ISSN: 0004-4172 The hawthorn extract LI 132 (crataegus), prepared from leaves and flowers, and standardised to 2.2% flavonoids, was investigated with respect to its effect on (1) the contraction, (2) the energy-turnover and (3) the apparent refractory period (t(ref)) of isolated cardiac myocytes from adult rats.
		Crataegus extract (0.01 or 0.05%) was applied to the heart from 5 min before ischemia through the first 10 min after reperfusion.
		In the heart treated with the high concentration of Crataegus extract, the reperfusion-induced recovery of the energy metabolism was accelerated, and the level of lactate during ischemia was lower than that in the control heart, although the myocardial levels of free fatty acids during ischemia and reperfusion were not greatly affected.

	Hawthorn (Crataegus): Food and Medicine In China
		Crataegus, commonly called hawthorn, is a well-known herb in traditional Chinese medicine and is an herb remedy in cultures throughout much of the world where there is a temperate climate supporting growth of the trees, especially in Europe.
		In Western herbalism, crataegus fruit, leaf, and flower have all had a long history of use for treating cardiac weakness, and this has become a focus on modern research efforts (2).
		In addition, crataegus provides many of the benefits attributed to Chinese herbs that are "blood vitalizers:" reducing blood lipids, improving blood circulation, and alleviating hypertension (via vasodilation).

	Materia Medica
		Some years ago it struck me that crataegus (hawthorn), a nutritive heart tonic used in a wide variety of cardiovascular disorders, might be well-indicated for certain emotional states that lead us to “close down our hearts,” and that prescribing Crataegus at these times might, in fact, help to prevent cardiovascular disease in later life.
		Crataegus, in my experience, has an ability to open out hearts again when disappointments or grief led us to close down or distrust.
		It struck me that since crataegus is useful for heart conditions that involve a sense of constriction and closing down, it might also be useful for lung conditions with the same symptoms of constriction and tightness in the chest.
