A esquizofrenia é a mais comum e prevalente psicose, tendo um curso crônico e deteriorativo capaz de impactar na qualidade de vida dos pacientes, familiares e cuidadores. Essa doença afeta as esferas social e ocupacional gerando custos pessoais e financeiros para o paciente e para o sistema de saúde do país. Em termos de tratamento, já existem no mercado diversos fármacos e intervenções disponíveis, sendo usados principalmente antipsicóticos em associação com outras classes de medicamentos (estabilizadores de humor, antidepressivos, benzodiazepínicos). No entanto, além de apresentarem um custo elevado, essas intervenções podem causar diversos sintomas e eventos adversos, o que influencia a adesão e sucesso no tratamento. Nesse contexto, destaca-se o uso de abordagens complementares como as plantas medicinais e a fitoterapia, que tem se mostrado, nas últimas décadas, como uma alternativa viável para auxiliar no tratamento dessa doença. As plantas medicinais são popularmente utilizadas e com isso podem representar um suporte efetivo à terapia medicamentosa de desordens mentais. Este artigo tem como objetivo revisar o uso complementar, bem como a efetividade e segurança de algumas plantas medicinais para o tratamento de sintomas da esquizofrenia. Aparentemente a combinação de plantas medicinais associada à terapia medicamentosa é uma estratégia útil para melhorar a eficácia dos antipsicóticos ou reduzir eventos adversos e custos no tratamento. Foi reportado o uso benéfico de diferentes plantas para o tratamento de sintomas da esquizofrenia incluindo: Erva de São João (Hypericum perforatum) para o tratamento de desordens afetivas e depressão; Valeriana (Valeriana officinalis) para ansiedade e epilepsia; Ginkgo biloba em casos de demência e déficit de memória; Ginseng (Panax ginseng) para pacientes esquizofrênicos com disfunções cognitivas.

As an ancient Chinese herbal medicine, Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer (P. ginseng) has been used both as food and medicine for nutrient supplements and treatment of human diseases in China for years. Fatigue, as a complex and multi-cause symptom, harms life from all sides. Millions worldwide suffer from fatigue, mainly caused by physical labor, mental stress, and chronic diseases. Multiple medicines, especially P. ginseng, were used for many patients or sub-healthy people who suffer from fatigue as a treatment or healthcare product. This review covers the extract and major components of P. ginseng with the function of anti-fatigue and summarizes the anti-fatigue effect of P. ginseng for different types of fatigue in animal models and clinical studies. In addition, the anti-fatigue mechanism of P. ginseng associated with enhancing energy metabolism, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity is discussed.

Myocardial Ischemia Reperfusion

Myocardial ischemia is a high-risk disease among middle-aged and senior individuals. After thrombolytic therapy, heart tissue can potentially suffer further damage, which is called myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). At present, the treatment methods and drugs for MIRI are scarce and cannot meet the current clinical needs. The mechanism of MIRI involves the interaction of multiple factors, and the current research hotspots mainly include oxidative stress, inflammation, calcium overload, energy metabolism disorders, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has multiple targets and few toxic side effects; clinical preparations containing Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F. H. Chen, Aralia chinensis L., cardioprotection, and other Chinese herbal medicines have been used to treat patients with coronary heart disease, angina pectoris, and other cardiovascular diseases. Studies have shown that saponins are the main active substances in TCMs containing Panax ginseng C. A. Mey., Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F. H. Chen, Aralia chinensis L., and Radix astragali. In the present review, we sorted the saponin components with anti-MIRI effects and their regulatory mechanisms. Each saponin can play a cardioprotective role via multiple mechanisms, and the signaling pathways involved in different saponins are not the same. We found that more active saponins in Panax ginseng C. A. Mey. are mainly dammar-type structures and have a strong regulatory effect on energy metabolism. The highly active saponin components of Aralia chinensis L. are oleanolic acid structures, which have significant regulatory effects on calcium homeostasis. Therefore, saponins in Chinese herbal medicine provide a broad application prospect for the development of highly effective and low-toxicity anti-MIRI drugs.
