Efficacy and effects of ginseng extract
① Influence on the endocrine and immune system.
Relevant studies have shown that intraperitoneal administration of GTS, Rb2, Rg1 and Rd can all reduce the level of increased plasma IL-6 levels caused by fixed stress, and Rb2 and Rd can significantly reduce the macrophagia caused by norepinephrine and epinephrine. The IL-6 content of the cell line increased, and Rg1 significantly reduced the increase in IL-6 content of the macrophage cell line caused by adrenaline. That is, ginsenosides have a certain activity in regulating immunity and endocrine.
②. The effect on the circulatory system.
Ginseng can regulate blood pressure in both directions, strengthen the heart, and protect the myocardium. Ginsenoside Rb1 can effectively inhibit ventricular remodeling in rats with acute myocardial infarction and protect heart function. Ginsenoside Rg1 treatment of AMI rats can significantly increase the number of stem cells in the peripheral blood, and promote the homing of stem cells to the infarcted myocardium to differentiate into cardiomyocyte-like cells, reduce the infarct size, significantly reduce ventricular remodeling, and protect the basic structure of ischemic myocardium.
