Goji Berry Extract Goji extract is the extract of mature fruit Goji, the main component is Goji polysaccharide, which has anti-stress, liver protection and enzyme reduction, lipid lowering, blood sugar lowering, hematopoietic function, growth promotion, immune function, lower blood pressure, and speed up uterus. The contraction frequency, increase its tension and other pharmacological effects.
Chemical composition Goji extract contains Goji polysaccharide (Polysaccharide), protein, alkaloids, coumarin, various amino acids. Among them, the alkaloids are atropine, angelamine, and betaine.
Pharmacological function 1. Antioxidative and anti-aging effects: Goji extract has anti-oxidative and anti-aging effects, can significantly inhibit the production of lipid peroxide (LPO) in liver homogenate of mice, and can make blood glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) activity and erythrocyte SOD activity increased. Goji polysaccharide can effectively resist free radical peroxidation and change the electrical function of damaged membrane; it has the effect of regulating lipid metabolism. 2. Enhance immune function: Goji water extract has enhanced effect on non-specific immunity and cellular immunity. Can significantly enhance the phagocytosis of macrophages. When the immune system is low, the immune-enhancing effect of Goji polysaccharide is more significant. 3. Choline-like effect: Intravenous injection of the water extract of Goji can cause the blood pressure to drop, the breathing is excited, the heartbeat is slowed down, and the intestinal tube can be excited. Its active ingredients are other than betaine. 4. Influence on intracellular genetic material: Goji polysaccharide has protective effect on in vitro genetic damage, and has obvious protective effect on genetic damage induced by some genetic poisons. Goji has anti-MMC-induced SCE effect, improves the repair ability after PNA injury, reduces the frequency of SCE, and resists genetic damage. It also has obvious effects on the proliferation activity of the normal proliferation cycle of lymphocytes and the proliferation cycle under the influence of MMC. 5. Effects on the respiratory system: 20 mg/kg of Goji fruit water extract can stimulate the breathing of anesthetized rabbits. 6. Effects on the digestive system: 20% infusion is about 8 ml per day, which can slightly inhibit the deposition of fat in liver cells and promote liver cell regeneration in mice with liver damage caused by carbon tetrachloride. effect. 7. Effects on the blood system: It can promote the production of red blood cells and hemoglobin. There are also platelet-raising effect. 8. Other effects: Goji decoction can enhance the contraction frequency, tension and strength of the isolated uterus. It can significantly prevent the increase of serum cholesterol in gavage-fed and lard rabbits. In addition, Goji berry may be involved in hypersensitivity to the formation of new attachments of periodontal connective tissue.
