In addition to the above varieties, the roots of the Compositae plant Nitraria tangdongensis were used in Jiangsu Province. In Xinjiang area, the roots of the Compositae plant Nitraria sinkiangensis were used as rhaponticum uniflorum.

[chemical constituents] the root of rhaponticum uniflorum contains essential oil. The results showed that the fruit and the seed of echinocephalus Turcz. Contained echinocephaline and nitrine.

[pharmacological action] Nitraria sinkiangensis: ① effect on central nervous system

The effect of echinocephaline is similar to strychnine. Small dose of echinocephaline can excite animals, large dose of echinocephaline can cause spasm, and then systemic inhibition. Echinocephaline can wake up the sleep of mice caused by barbital, excite neuromuscular apparatus, and promote the recovery process of peripheral nerve. Clinically, it can treat all kinds of incomplete paralysis and paralysis due to peripheral or central motor nerve conduction disorder. It has a strong effect on patients with vascular dystrophy on the basis of systemic weakness. It also has therapeutic effect on experimental traumatic paralysis.

② Impact on cardiovascular system

The results showed that the blood pressure of anesthetized cat decreased and the contractile force of heart increased, the contractile tension of isolated frog heart increased and the contractile amplitude decreased, the heart stopped in systole at high concentration, and the isolated rabbit ear showed vasodilation. In foreign countries, it is used as a cardiotonic in patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis.

③ Others

The results showed that the tension of isolated cat intestines was increased, but the tension of isolated rabbit intestines was inhibited. Its spasmogenic effect is weaker than strychnine, the dose of increasing reflex activity (3-6 mg / kg) is quite different from the lethal dose (600-650 mg / kg), and its toxicity is low.
