The motherwort, also known as Cnidium montanum, Kun grass, is a herb, bitter, pungent, slightly cold. Because it contains selenium and manganese and other trace elements, can be antioxidant, anti-aging, anti-fatigue and inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, therefore, have the effect of skin care.

Uterine effects: motherwort decoction, ethanol extract and motherwort alkaloids have an excitatory effect on the isolated uterus of rabbits, cats and other animals.

Antiplatelet aggregation and antithrombosis: In vitro experiments have proved that

Motherwort and its extracts have antagonistic effects on ADP-induced platelet aggregation in normal animals. In vivo experiments also proved that motherwort significantly reduced the total number of platelets in the peripheral circulation and platelets and their aggregates in the alveolar wall capillaries. Motherwort had a significant solubilizing effect on red thrombi in the pulmonary circulation of rabbits. In addition,

Motherwort also enhances the cellular immunity of the body.

Improvement of coronary circulation and protection of the heart: motherwort can promote the rapid recovery of local blood flow microcirculation disorders caused by isoprenaline.

Cardiovascular effects: Motherwort significantly increased coronary flow and slowed heart rate considerably in an isoprenaline-induced myocardial ischemia model of isolated guinea-pig hearts

. Intravenous motherwort preparations significantly increased coronary flow, decreased coronary resistance, slowed heart rate, and reduced output and left ventricular work in anesthetized dogs.

The effect on the respiratory center: motherwort has a direct excitatory effect, the anesthetized cats injected intravenously motherwort base, respiratory rate and amplitude were significantly increased, but in large doses, respiration from excitement to inhibition, and become weak and irregular. After severing the nerves on both sides, there was no respiratory excitatory effect.

Effects on intestinal smooth muscle: A small amount of epsilonine can make the rabbit isolated intestinal tube tensile relaxation, amplitude expansion, a large amount of the amplitude becomes smaller, and the frequency increases.

Other effects:The alkaline subcutaneous injection of epsom salts has a central inhibitory effect, MLD is 0.4-0.6g/kg. 1mg/kg of epsom salts injected intravenously in rabbits can be seen in a significant increase in urine output. The higher concentration of epsom salts can cause hemolytic effect in rabbit blood suspension. The aqueous infusion of motherwort alkaloid was diluted 1:13-1:10 in test tubes, and had inhibitory effects on Trichoderma lucidum, Trichoderma lanuginosa, S. epidermidis red, and Nucella stellata. Motherwort decoction with plate paper method, on the Escherichia coli, Shigella dysentery bacilli have inhibitory effect.

Not suitable for use with epinephrine. Motherwort has antihypertensive effect, can reduce or even reverse the effect of adrenaline.

Do not use with isoprenaline. Motherwort increases coronary flow, slows heart rate, and can antagonize the effects of isoprenaline.

Not suitable for use with atropine. Decreases the antihypertensive effect of motherwort.
