Wild lily Chinese medicine

Everyone knows that lilies represent noble qualities. Not only do they bloom beautifully, but they also emit a delicate and fragrant scent. Lily not only has high ornamental value, but also has very high value in traditional Chinese medicine. But not every kind of lily has high value in traditional Chinese medicine. Only wild lily has high value in traditional Chinese medicine. Wild lily literally means wild lily, not artificially cultivated. Detailed introduction to the efficacy of wild lily as a traditional Chinese medicine.

1. Anti-cancer effect

Lilium has certain inhibitory effects on mouse sarcoma-180, leukemia L615, rat Wacker's carcinoma-256, etc. (treatment starts 24 hours after inoculation), among which the effect on Wacker's carcinoma-256 is the most significant. It has also been reported that the inhibition rate of S37 is 54-75%. If an oxygen atom is introduced into the nitrogen atom of the nucleus of lily alkaloid, the toxicity can be reduced, but the inhibition rate of sarcoma-180 will also be reduced. Clinical trials have shown good results in the treatment of skin cancer and uterine cancer, and it also has certain effects on leukemia. This bioalkaloid is a disuccinic acid pyrrolidine, and its anticancer effect is similar to that of alkylating agents.

2. In vivo process

Lilium alkaloids appear in the blood very quickly after oral administration, intramuscular or intravenous injection. Although oral administration is rapidly absorbed, the absorption peak is low. Lilium alkaloids and their metabolites can still be detected 72 hours after a single dose, indicating that they have obvious accumulation properties, mainly accumulating in the liver, lungs, and kidneys. The main excretion route is urine, with the excretion in urine in 72 hours being 8.34-17.01%, and it cannot be detected in feces. Cancer patients continue to excrete it in the urine during medication or 22 to 90 days after stopping the medication. Diuretics can promote its excretion.

3. Other functions

Lilium has a persistent and significant blood pressure-lowering effect on anesthetized dogs, can inhibit the isolated rabbit heart, and has an excitatory effect on smooth muscle (ileum of rabbits and guinea pigs, uterus of rats and guinea pigs, and dog tracheal chain). These effects are not weakened by atropine.
