Chinese Lycoris radiata bulbs contain anti-tumor compounds narciclasine, lycoline, snowdropamine, lycoline, epilycoramine, lycoline, crinine, tennis flower Sodium alkaloids, small star allicine, allicin and allicin. ^[1]

Walking the dog orally or injecting Lycoline can cause vomiting. The effect is stronger than that of Imidin and apomorphine, and the emetic effect is central. Chlorpromazine and reserpine have antiemetic properties. Dihydrolycosin may also cause vomiting, but it is much lighter than lycosin. Lycoris radiata total alkaloids are used as expectorants (small amounts of drugs with emetic properties can be used as expectorants). Lycosynine does not cause vomiting. Oral or injection of lycoline in rabbits can cause varying degrees of diarrhea. Dogs underwent subcutaneous injection of 30 mg / kg caused vomiting, diarrhea, failure, and eventually died. Continuous administration of lycoline in rats reduces weight loss, bleeding, dental and bone development disorders, decreases in ascorbic acid content in liver, kidney, adrenal gland, testis, and ovary, and can inhibit liver tyrosine oxidase and urase activity If the ascorbic acid is given at the same time, the above changes do not appear; lycosine can inhibit the synthesis of ascorbic acid in animals and plants; in rats, lycoline can combat the increase in ascorbic acid synthesis caused by trichloro-tert-butyl alcohol (Chloreton). However, in an acute test, ascorbic acid actually increased lycoline to cause mortality in mice. Rats continuously administered with allicin could also cause a decrease in the number of red blood cells and white blood cells in the peripheral blood, the latter being more significant, mainly due to a decrease in neutral cells. Can also inhibit the division of germ cells in young rats, making

Physical and chemical identification thin layer chromatography: take 10g of coarse powder, heat reflux with 50ml of ethanol for 1h, let cool and filter, and concentrate the filtrate under reduced pressure to 10ml, add 10ml of ethanol to precipitate starch, filter, and concentrate the filtrate to dryness under reduced pressure. Ethanol is dissolved for spotting. Lycoline and pseudolycoline were used as reference. Pick up the two solutions mentioned above and spot them on a thin layer of silica gel G, using chloroform-acetone-methanol (80:10:10) as the developing agent, and the span is 6 cm. Color development with steam. In the chromatogram of the test product, the spots of the same color were shown at the corresponding positions of the chromatogram of the reference product. ^[6]

Morphological characteristics of Lycoris radiata

Bulbs are nearly spherical, 1-3 cm in diameter. The leaves emerge in autumn, and the leaves are narrow-banded, about 15 cm long and 0.5 cm wide, with blunt tips, dark green, and pink-green bands in the middle. Flower stem is about 30 cm high; 2 bracts in total, lanceolate, about 3.5 cm long and 0.5 cm wide; umbel has 4-7 flowers; bright red flowers; perianth lobes narrowly oblanceolate, long About 3 cm, about 0.5 cm wide, the intensity of shrinking and rewinding, the perianth tube is green, about 0.5 cm long; the stamens protrude significantly from the perianth, about 1 times longer than the perianth. Flowering from August to September, fruiting from October. ^[4]

Lycoris radiata growing environment

Wild in the crevices of wet hillsides and creeks; gardens are also cultivated. The garlic is a self-pollinating plant with capsules split back and many seeds. Generally, the bulbs reproduce once every 3 to 4 years. Because the flower and leaves cannot meet each other, it is called the other shore flower, because it can swelling, kill insects, treat lymph node tuberculosis, scabies, edema, rheumatoid joint pain, snake bites, edema, extermination, rodent eradication, pest control Wait, so it is also known as the patron saint of health, also known as Shezihua or Shelizi

Geographic distribution of Lycoris radiata

Distributed in Shandong, Henan, Anhui, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hubei, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan. There are also in Japan. The type specimens were taken from the country of origin, but the place of origin was unknown. ^[4]
