The efficacy and function of Scutellaria barbata

There are many effects and functions of Scutellaria barbata. This medicine has the functions of clearing away heat and detoxifying, and is relatively easy to disperse blood stasis, stop bleeding, and promote diuresis. It can also help us treat vomiting blood and hematuria. Cancer, and snake bites, but we may not have a particularly good understanding of the efficacy of this herb, we must be clear about this.


Scutellaria barbata is a medicinal plant. The whole plant is relatively dry, and most of the leaves have fallen off. These half-branched lotus are actually stems and branches with flower spikes, which are about 15 to 25 cm long, quadrangular, with yellow-green or purple-brown surface, smooth, soft, fibrous and hollow in broken surface; the remaining leaves are dark yellow-green, mostly broken and incomplete, wrinkled and curled, brittle and easy to fall off; the flower spikes are born at the end of the branches, and are yellow-green. Anti-tumor effect: The screening experiment using the Methylene Blue tube method showed that this product had a very mild inhibitory effect on acute myeloid leukemia cells; the screening experiment using the cell respirator method showed that the inhibition rate on acute myeloid leukemia blood cells was greater than 75%.

Immunomodulatory effect: The polysaccharide contained in this product can promote ConA-induced mouse spleen cell lymphocyte transformation in vitro, and its optimal concentration is 400r/ml. Sc administration for one week significantly increased the percentage of esterase-positive cells in peripheral blood lymphocytes of mice and promoted DNCB-induced delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions. However, high-dose administration (200 mg/kg) can inhibit the thymus index of mice and has no effect on the spleen index.

Effects on blood vessels: Baicalin can increase cerebral blood flow, reduce cerebrovascular resistance, improve the permeability of the blood-brain barrier, and counteract platelet aggregation caused by adenosine diphosphate. Scutellaria barbata is the dried aerial part of the Scutellaria barbata plant of the Lamiaceae family. It has the functions of clearing away heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and anti-cancer. It is now mainly used in combination with Hedyotis diffusa to prolong the survival of colorectal cancer patients. At the same time, Scutellaria barbata can clear away heat, detoxify, disperse blood stasis, stop bleeding, relieve pain, and treat vomiting blood, nose bleeding, bloody stranguria, dysentery, jaundice, sore throat, lung abscess, furuncle, scrofula, sore, cancer, trauma, knife wounds, and snake bites.

In fact, we need to be clear that Scutellaria barbata belongs to a plant of the Lamiaceae family. The dried above-ground part of this Scutellaria barbata has excellent functions of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and anti-cancer. I hope we can understand this knowledge clearly and it will be helpful to us.
