Schisandra sphenanthera
Southern schisandra species used in TCM similarly to northern schisandra for liver protection and respiratory conditions.
Schisandra sphenanthera, a southern species of schisandra used in Traditional Chinese Medicine, is valued for its hepatoprotective, adaptogenic, and immunomodulatory properties. Its primary active compounds include schisantherin, wuweizisu, and other lignans such as gomisin, which contribute to its therapeutic effects on liver function, respiratory health, and stress adaptation. This monograph summarizes current evidence for its clinical applications, safety profile, and potential drug interactions.
Schisandra sphenanthera exerts hepatoprotective effects through modulation of phase I and II detoxification enzymes, including induction of glutathione S-transferase and inhibition of CYP2E1, thereby reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the liver. Its adaptogenic properties are mediated via regulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, enhancing cortisol metabolism and reducing stress-induced fatigue. The lignans, particularly schisantherin and gomisin, also exhibit immunomodulatory activity by stimulating natural killer cell activity and modulating cytokine production, while wuweizisu contributes to respiratory smooth muscle relaxation and antitussive effects.
