Cissus
''Cissus'' is a genus of approximately 350 species of lianas (Woody plant, woody vines) in the grape family (Vitaceae). They have a cosmopolitan distribution, though the majority are to be found in the tropics. Uses Medicinal ''Cissus quadrangularis'' has been evaluated for potential medical uses. As a source of carotenoids, triterpenoids and ascorbic acid the extracts may have potential for medical effects, including "gastroprotective activity" and benefits in terms of "lipid metabolism and oxidative stress". ''Cissus quinquangularis'' was used by the Maasai people of Kenya to relieve some of the symptoms of malaria. Ornamental ''Cissus antarctica'', ''Cissus alata'' and ''Cissus incisa'' are cultivated as garden plants, depending on area of the world. Succulent members of the genus such as ''Cissus quadrangularis'' are also found in the nursery trade but tend to be frost tender and are thus not widely cultivated. Ecology ''Cissus'' species are used as food plants by the Cat ...
