Dwarf Lily-turf
Ophiopogon japonicus
Ophiopogon japonicus, commonly known as麦门冬 (mài mén dōng) in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is a traditional plant used in East Asian medicine. Traditionally, it has been employed for various purposes such as nourishing yin and clearing heat, though specific uses vary among different traditions. Scientific evidence suggests that Ophiopogon japonicus may have several beneficial effects. Studies indicate that its compounds, particularly ophiopoginin D, show potential anti-hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) properties by targeting the UCK2-SLC7A11 axis. Additionally, an aqueous decoction of the plant has been observed to alleviate pulmonary fibrosis through modulation of the HIF1A/TUBB3 axis-associated M2 macrophage polarization and arginine metabolic alterations. However, more research is needed to confirm these findings. Safety profiles for Ophiopogon japonicus appear favorable with no major issues recorded. There are currently no reported drug interactions associated with this plant, but further investigation is recommended to fully understand its safety profile in various contexts.

Was die Wissenschaft sagt
- Die Studie zeigte an, dass Mikroplastikelemente am stärksten die Entfernung von NH4+-N beeinträchtigen, wobei sich dies vor allem durch Partikelgröße, Konzentration und Polymerart in natürlichen Stauwasserinfrastrukturen auswirkt.
- Ophiopogin D zeigte antiproliferative Wirkungen, indem es das UCK2-SLC7A11-Axis in Vitro und In Vivo ansprang.
- Die wässrige Dekoktion von Ophiopogon japonicus hat die pulmonale Fibrose signifikant gemildert, indem sie das M2-Makrophagepolarisations- und das Argininmetabolismus-Veränderungen im Zusammenhang mit dem HIF1A/TUBB3-Achse reguliert hat.
- Es wurden insgesamt 14 Metaboliten bei MON-A identifiziert, wobei Glucuronid-Konjugate die meistvorkommenden waren.
- Die Nebenprodukte von O. japonicus wechselten in ihrer Wirkung auf das Wachstumsspektrum der Fleischkaninchen mit der Zeit, aber verbesserten die Intestinalimmunität ohne Veränderung des Mikrobiomms oder SCFA-Niveaus.
- Die Studie zeigte an, dass verschiedene Pflanzentabletten Potenzial haben, um Symptome der Herzinsuffizienz zu verbessern, wobei unterschiedliche Tabletten unterschiedliche Vorteile bieten, obwohl Beweise für einige Interventionen begrenzt sind.
- Bepflanzungen mit dominiertem Ophiopogon japonicus zeigten eine reduzierte Vielfalt im Vergleich zu anderen Vegetationsarten in ansässigen Grünflächen.
