Antitumor effect
1. 1. Coix lachryma-jobi ethanol extract can inhibit the proliferation of Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (ECA) cells and significantly prolong the survival time of animals. Two components were further separated from the extract, one can cause the protoplasm degeneration of cancer cells, and the other can stop the nucleus in the mitotic phase of mesophase. 1.2. The acetone extract of Coix lachryma-jobi also inhibited the intraperitoneal injection of ECA in mice. This anti-tumor activity can be transferred to the acidic part dissolved in petroleum ether. If injected subcutaneously, ascites will become transparent and tumor cells will almost disappear, but the toxicity of this part is correspondingly high. The acetone extract of Coix lachryma-jobi also has obvious inhibitory effect on solid tumors of cervical cancer 14(U 14) and ascites liver cancer (HCA). 1.3. The clinical application of Coicis Semen decoction can prolong the life of patients with advanced cancer. Ascites examination showed that after intraperitoneal injection of Coicis Semen acetone extract, the protoplasm of cancer cells was obviously denatured. It was also found that the 50% ethanol extract of Coix lachryma-jobi seed could promote the keratinization of cultured squamous epithelial cancer cells.
immunologic function
2. 1. The neutral polysaccharide dextran mixture and acidic polysaccharide IIA- 1, 2,3,Ⅱ b separated from the hot water extract of Coix lachryma-jobi have anti-complement activity. 2.2. The mixture of neutral polysaccharide and dextran is highly heterogeneous. Seven kinds of glucans can be separated by HPLC, which are α-D- glucans linked by1→ 4, with glucosyl side chains at the 0-6 position of the main chain. Each purified glucan has a different maximum absorption (530nm or >: 550nm) in iodine reaction, and > 500 nm glucan is more effective than 530 nm glucan, which is considered to have considerable anti-complement activity. 2.3. Further separation and purification of acidic polysaccharides IIA-1,2, 3 and Ⅱ b, obtained anti-complement polysaccharides CA- 1 and CA-2, with protein content of 8- 1 1% and molecular weights of 160000 and 70000 respectively. At low dose, CA-2 showed stronger anti-complement activity than CA- 1.

Inhibition of trypsin action
A thermostable trypsin inhibitor was found from the bran of Coix lachryma-jobi seeds. It is a simple protein with a molecular weight of about 12000 and contains many cysteine or cystine residues. The molecular ratio of it to bovine trypsin is 1: 2, which shows that it is double-headed, and its activity is stable at pH3- 1 1 and high temperature 100℃, but the thermal stability of its inhibitory activity mainly depends on the type of solvent.
