The role of Cornus officinalis
1, the effect on cardiovascular system
Cornus officinalis has cardiotonic effect. Cornus officinalis injection 2-8mg/kg intravenously can improve cardiac function, increase myocardial contractility and cardiac output, and improve cardiac work efficiency. After injection, arterial systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, mean blood pressure and left ventricular pressure all increased. Cornus officinalis injection can antagonize late hemorrhagic shock in rabbits and rats, increase blood pressure, increase renal blood flow and prolong animal survival time.
2, the impact on the immune system
Different components of Cornus officinalis have different effects on immune system. The decoction can reduce the phagocytosis of reticuloendothelial system, inhibit delayed hypersensitivity caused by SRBC or DNCB (2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene) and inhibit the activation of T lymphocytes. The total glucosides of Cornus officinalis and ursolic acid can obviously inhibit the proliferation and transformation of T lymphocytes, inhibit the production of LAK cells (killer cells activated by lymphokines) and interleukin -2, and have obvious antagonistic effects on the rejection caused by organ transplantation. The total glucosides of Cornus officinalis were injected intraperitoneally every day for 6 days, which can obviously prolong the survival time of mice after heart transplantation. The decoction can promote humoral immunity and accelerate the formation of serum antibodies IgG and IgM.

It is suggested that its anti-inflammatory mechanism is related to enhancing the function of pituitary-adrenal cortex, and has no obvious inhibitory effect on PGE synthesis and release. Cornus officinalis has a strong inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus epidermidis. It also has inhibitory effect on enterococcus, Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae.

Cornus officinalis can enhance the anti-stress ability of the body, improve the anti-hypoxia and anti-fatigue ability of mice, and enhance the memory. Cornus officinalis can increase SOD activity in red blood cells and resist lipid peroxidation.
