Abstract:
Cerebral ischemia is due to cerebral blood supply disorders caused by ischemia and hypoxia resulting in localized ischemic brain necrosis or brain softening of the disease, leading to irreversible brain damage and subsequent loss of neuronal function is a serious threat to human health One of several diseases. For patients with cerebral ischemia, often the lack of effective and extensive treatment. In addition, cerebral ischemia with morbidity, morbidity and mortality are characterized by high, so by the medical profession at home and abroad attention. As a traditional Chinese medicine, cordyceps sinensis (CS) is a complex of ergot fungus, which is parasitized on the larvae of the bat-moth family. The compound is composed of cordycepin, cordyceps polysaccharide, cordyceps sinensis peptides, ergosterol, mannitol, fatty acids and trace elements such as a variety of ingredients, with a wide range of pharmacological effects. Over the years, domestic and foreign scholars on the pharmacological effects of cordyceps sinensis were more comprehensive study of its prevention and treatment of cerebral ischemia is also deepening, found that cordyceps sinensis on cerebral ischemia with anti-inflammatory, reduce oxidative damage and neuronal ischemia damage, reduce neuronal apoptosis, improve memory cognition, reduce thrombosis, inhibit NO production, enhance mitochondrial energy supply, scavenging free radicals and other prevention and treatment. But no relevant review. In this paper, the domestic and foreign literatures on the prevention and treatment of cerebral ischemia by cordyceps sinensis were summarized, analyzed and summarized in order to provide useful information for the research and further development of cordyceps sinensis.
