Paecilomyces cicadae )?
Samson is a precious traditional Chinese medicine cicada flower, which is a wild cicada flower in Hengduan Mountain and Tianmu Mountain, and infected with the bitter bamboo cicada. It is also called golden cicada flower or cicada grass (see Derek lv's Golden Cicada in Baidu Library). Cicada is an entomogenous medicinal fungus, and it is an insect-fungus complex formed by Paecilomyces cicadae parasitizing on cicada nymphs of Homoptera. Is the sex type of cicada flower Cordyceps sinensis?
Ok. )。 There are few cicadas in nature, mainly paecilomyces cicadae parasitic insect-fungus complex.
Golden cicada flower-morphological characteristics
Its roots are cicada pupae or cicada larvae, and flowers grow from the heads of single or 2-3 cicada larvae, about one inch long, and bloom and branch from the top. Ascot seats are single or 2-3 bunches from the front end of the main body. 2.5-6cm long, hollow, with cinnamon handle?
After drying, it is dark cinnamon with a diameter of 1.5-4mm, sometimes with sterile small branches and a rod-shaped head.
Yellow-brown, the leaves are pale and rotten after drying, with a length of 7-28mm and a diameter of 2-7 mm. Ascomycetes are embedded in the Ascomycetes, and the orifice is slightly prominent and oval, about 600 μ m× 200 μ m, and the daughter is cylindrical, 200-380μ m× 6-7μ m ... Ascomycetes are linear, with multiple transverse partitions, and then split into 8-16 μ m×1-
After drying, refrigerate, take it out and soak it?
According to related research,
Cicada belongs to a biological pathological phenomenon, which is a complex of insects and bacteria. In fact, Paecilomyces cicadae parasitizes cicada nymphs and eventually leads to cicada death. Cicada completely became the growth medium of Paecilomyces cicadae, and finally the nutrition of cicada was absorbed by Paecilomyces cicadae. So what do people say?
"Cicadae flower" is the residue after the mycelium, fruiting body and nymph of Paecilomyces cicadae are consumed.
Golden cicada flower-cicada flower formation process
Growth of cicada: Cicada lays eggs on branches, which leads to the death of branches. After a certain period of time, the eggs hatch into cicada nymphs, which move underground for a period of time and feed on the juice of plant roots. Cicada nymphs usually have to live underground for several years before they can climb out of the ground to a higher position and emerge into cicada adults. ?
Formation of cicada flower: cicada nymph was infected and parasitized by Paecilomyces cicadae spores before emergence. When the living conditions are suitable, hyphae begin to grow in large numbers and absorb the nutrition of the worms. After a certain period of time, cicada nymphs will die, and finally the insect's body is completely occupied by hyphae, leaving only an empty shell. When the climate is suitable, Paecilomyces cicadae changes from vegetative stage to reproductive stage, and gradually produces cicada fruiting body from the top of the whole mycelium. When the fruiting body matures, a large amount of spore powder grows on the surface, and the ground shape of Paecilomyces cicadae is often flower-shaped, so it is named cicada flower.
Golden cicada flower-the function of cicada flower
Cicada is a valuable Chinese herbal medicine with high medicinal value. Natural cicada (or golden cicada) is mainly used for various compatible medicinal materials, nourishing medicinal diet or as health care products. Studies have shown that Paecilomyces cicadae contains polysaccharide, cordycepic acid, cordycepin, amino acids, alkaloids, ergosterol and glycogen. ?
Song et al. [6] determined that the adenosine content in cicada flower was about 65438 0.35 mg/g by HPLC. Yu Ying et al. [7] on ergot Daisy??
The content of paecilomyces cicadae (sex type of paecilomyces cicadae) was determined. The results showed that the total content of protein in CIDA giant salamander was 39.35%, and it contained 16 kinds of amino acids, mainly glutamic acid and aspartic acid, as well as polysaccharides, fats and various trace elements, among which Mg content was the highest. ?
Zhu Ying et al. [8] determined that the content of polysaccharide in cicada flower was 24. 16?
Mg/g Luwen et al. [9] determined the active components of Cordyceps sinensis and compared them with Cordyceps sinensis and Cordyceps militaris. The results showed that the contents of cordycepic acid and adenosine in Cordyceps sinensis were higher than those in Cordyceps sinensis, and the contents of polysaccharide and cordycepic acid were higher than those in Cordyceps militaris, which had similar medical and health care functions. Medical research shows that cicada flower has obvious effects of immunomodulation, anti-fatigue, anti-tumor and improving renal function, and has achieved good curative effect on tumors, chronic kidney disease, renal failure and other diseases in clinical application. Professor Chen Yiping from Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and?
Director Derek lv and others think that cicada slough has a good clinical effect in preventing further damage of chronic renal function, restoring renal function and treating proteinuria. Anti-tumor and preventing the spread and metastasis of cancer cells are achieved by improving the immunity of patients. Director Derek lv of China Cancer Prevention Network and authoritative cancer experts at home and abroad believe that the fundamental cause of cancer is the decline of patients' immunity. The immune system is the natural barrier of human body, which can produce immune protection such as anti-cancer and maintain the physiological balance and stability of the body. For patients receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it can improve the tolerance to the toxicity of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, eliminate the pain peculiar to cancer, and reduce or eliminate the toxicity caused by radiotherapy and chemotherapy?
Side effects such as leukopenia, alopecia, anorexia and vomiting can improve cachexia, improve quality of life and prolong life. ?
