. Cistanche Tubulosa Extract for brain health
We just said that echinacoside is a main active ingredient of Cistanche tubulosa. Echinacoside is soluble in methanol, ethanol, hot water. It is a phenylethanoid glycoside compound.
Echinacoside has a significant protective effect on the apoptosis of nerve cells SHSY5Y induced by tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α). Its mechanism is to maintain the function of mitochondria through antioxidant effects, reduce the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species, inhibit the activity of caspase-3 And maintain the high-energy state of mitochondrial membrane potential. Since Echinacoside has strong anti-apoptotic activity, it may be used to treat neurodegenerative and nervous system diseases including neuronal apoptosis.
Echinacoside has an anti-aging effect, and its mechanism is that it can significantly inhibit O2−•, OH•, and other free radicals, and at the same time can increase the activity of GSH-Px and SOD, and reduce the content of MDA. Due to the inhibition of MAO activity, the memory of mice is improved. The results of this study indicate that the effects of Echinacoside on anti-lipid peroxidation and improving aging are related to its antioxidant activity. Echinacoside may improve the learning and memory ability of SAM-P/8 mice by improving the function of the central cholinergic system, increasing the total antioxidant capacity, promoting protein and nucleic acid synthesis, and regulating the immune status.
Cistanche extract can improve cognitive function, including the abilities to store and recall memory. One study on the neuroprotective traits of cistanche found that it could improve the cognitive function and independent living ability of those with moderate Alzheimer’s disease.
.Anti-tumor effect
Studies have confirmed that the echinacoside from cistanche inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells, it can cause tumor cell apoptosis by blocking cells in the S phase. Echinacoside promotes the activation of the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway and increased the expression levels of Bax/Bcl-2. Moreover, Echinacoside could trigger the release of mitochondrial Cyto C, and cause the reaction Caspases grade.
.Cistanche Tubulosa Extract Reduces Inflammation, boosts Immune System
Cistanche Tubulosa is also said to be an excellent anti-inflammatory agent.
