Liriope muscari
Related species to ophiopogon; used similarly in TCM for yin nourishment; found in coastal and forest settings.
Mai Dong (Liriope muscari) is a traditional Chinese herb used for yin nourishment, moistening dryness, and clearing heart heat, with modern research indicating anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, cardioprotective, and anti-aging properties. Its key active compounds include methylophiopogonanone, ophiopogonin, beta-sitosterol, flavonoids, and polysaccharides. Evidence level C suggests preliminary clinical and preclinical support for these uses.
Mai Dong's pharmacological effects are mediated through multiple pathways: methylophiopogonanone and ophiopogonin exhibit anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting NF-κB and COX-2 expression, while polysaccharides enhance immune function via macrophage activation and cytokine modulation. Cardioprotective effects involve antioxidant activity, reduction of oxidative stress, and improvement of myocardial energy metabolism. Beta-sitosterol and flavonoids contribute to anti-aging by scavenging free radicals and modulating sirtuin pathways.
