Medicinal value of small money grass

1. Liver protection and enzyme lowering effect: Pharmacological experiments have shown that the extract of Houttuynia cordata has a certain therapeutic and protective effect on acute liver damage induced by carbon tetrachloride in animals. It can sharply reduce the elevated blood cell transaminase in mice caused by liver damage within 1 week and 3 weeks, alleviate liver pathological changes, and also increase the white blood cell ratio that is reversed after liver damage.

2. Analgesic effect: The twisting method, heating plate method and electric stimulation method were used to stimulate mice. Different dosages of Houttuynia cordata extract were administered to the mice. The pain threshold of the mice was measured. It was concluded that Houttuynia cordata extract had a good analgesic effect.

3. Anti-infection effect: A small dose of Lysimachia sibiricum extract can significantly inhibit the increase of capillary permeability caused by acetic acid, and inhibit the inflammatory swelling of rat toes caused by carrageenan. Both the extract of Houttuynia cordata and the petroleum ether extract can significantly inhibit the inflammatory edema of the mouse ear caused by xylene, but the anti-infection effect of the petroleum ether extract of Houttuynia cordata has no obvious dosage dependence, and the dosage always has good pharmacological specificity for different inflammatory models.

4. Antibacterial effect: Microbial strain experiments show that the extract of Houttuynia cordata has a strong antibacterial effect on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and hemolytic Streptococcus aureus caused by hepatitis B, but has a poor effect on Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative streptococci such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Proteus, and Clostridium difficile. The key is the inhibitory effect, and it is ineffective against Shigella flexneri.

5. Antipyretic and choleretic: Large amounts of Houttuynia cordata extract can sharply reduce the fever-induced body temperature of rats induced by peptone, and the temperature lasts for a long time, showing a good antipyretic effect. When a dose of Houttuynia cordata extract was introduced into the duodenum of rats, the total bile flow continued to increase within 120 minutes, indicating that the drug has a strong choleretic effect.
