Abstract
The botanical origins of Cynanchum species on Taiwan market has been established, they were the roots of C. atratum Bunge (=Pai-wei); C. stauntonii (Decne.) Hand.-Mazz. (=Pai-chein); and C. taiwanianum Yamazaki (=Wan-ling-shu). Furthermore, the water extract of C. taiwanianum root (CTR) significantly reduced carrageenan-induced paw edema in rats. Moreover. CTR also significantly declined the acute increase in sGOT and sGPT levels caused by CCI4-; β -D-galactosamine-; and acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity. The metamorphology of liver damage has been improved by pretreatment with CTR.
