Typical Case Histories Where Cordyceps Sinensis Hyphas Mycelium Has Been Used to Treat Chronic Bronchitis

Mr. Tsao, male, 68 years, has had chronic bronchitis for 18 years. During the last 7 years, patient has experienced worsened coughing and expectoration of sputum, coughing up about 20 mouthfuls of sputum daily. While coughing up sputum, the patient's face typically becomes red, experiences abdominal sweating, and must expend great energy to cough up a mouthful of sputum.
Patient feels a shortness of breath after mild exercise; this symptom often affects patient's activities and sleep. After beginning to take Cordyceps Sinensis, patient described decreased coughing, a clear reduction in sputum to 2-3 mouthfuls daily, increased ease in coughing up sputum, and a clear improvement in breathing. Patient is able to sleep well at night, has a feeling of well-being, is in good spirits, has increased appetite, improved digestion, and often feels hungry. Besides eliminating cough, reducing sputum, and calming breathing, Cordyceps Sinensis may also have a certain soothing and tonic effect.

Mr. Li, male, age 56, had had chronic bronchitis for 15 years; his illness had increased in severity over the most recent three years and main symptoms included coughing and the expectoration of sputum. Sputum was of a thick consistency, intermixed white and yellow in color, and difficult to cough up. Every 24 hours patient would cough up approximately 60 ml of sputum. He gasped and experienced chest pains while performing movement, feeling short of breath. Lung function as measured was: 3212 ml vital capacity, FEvl/FEv 49%, FEv3/FEv 98%, MBC 56623 ml, MBC (%) 58%, 3423 ml residual lung capacity.
After the patient began taking Cordyceps Sinensis Hyphas Mycelium, he experienced decreased production of sputum and gradually lessened coughing. Daily sputum production declined from 60 ml to only 2 ml; sputum became more liquid and easier to expectorate. Gasping and shortness of breath showed a gradual decrease, while whistling noise in patient's lungs disappeared. Although the patient originally experienced gasping and chest pains while walking or climbing stairs, he is now able to run 200 meters every morning. His lung function after treatment was: 3284 ml vital capacity, FEvl/FEv 58%, FEv3/FEv 87%, MBC 69891 ml, MBC (%) 4%, 3013 ml residual lung capacity.

Mr. Chang, male, age 41, suffered from expanding chronic bronchitis over ten years; because of colds, he often experienced coughing and expectorated sputum containing blood. Because of a cold during November, 1983, the patient coughed up approximately 100-200 ml of blood, suffered a sore throat and a hoarse voice, experienced night sweats, had a dry mouth and lack of thirst, had dryish feces, urine-general WBC 1100/mm3, N 75%, X-Rays showed a dark spot on upper part of left lung, and striations on lungs were coarse and tangled. After taking Cordyceps Sinensis Hyphas Mycelium, expectoration of blood, night sweating, and dryness of mouth all ceased and voice returned to normal. After taking medication for 30 days, a physical check-up revealed: light red tongue, thin white coating on tongue, delicate pulse, WBC 8600/mm3, and N 65%. Striations on lungs were coarse.

Mr. Ying had worsening chronic asthmatic bronchitis for 26 years. The patient coughed up more than 20 mouthfuls of sputum daily; sputum was difficult expectorate and patient experienced agitated breathing. After taking medication for one week, patient felt it was easier to cough up sputum, quantity of sputum decreased to 2 to 3 mouthfuls daily, agitated breathing showed clear improvement and whistling sound in lungs disappeared.

冬虫夏草平阴阳

　冬虫夏草就是我国传统的名贵药膳滋补品。冬虫夏草不仅可以化痰，还有滋补气血的药效。据古籍医书记载，虫草以全草入药，性平、味甘，适用于肺肾两虚、精气不足、咳嗽气短、自汗盗汗、阳痿遗精等病症。由于它性平力缓，能平补阴阳，所以也是年老体弱、病后体衰、产后体虚者的调补药食佳品。它保肺益补精髓，秘精益气，止血化痰，中医多用于慢性肾炎、肺结核、慢性肝炎、前列腺炎、神经衰弱、腰膝酸痛、心律失常、肿瘤的辅助治疗和老人及产妇贫血虚弱、病后久虚。
　冬虫夏草不仅具有抗菌、抗癌、抗炎、滋肾的作用，还有提高肾上腺皮质醇含量、抗心律失常、抗疲劳、祛痰平喘、镇静催眠的功效。据张教授介绍，用冬虫夏草泡酒，每日少量饮用，坚持食用可促进消化、改善肾功能、调节免疫功能、增强机体抵抗能力，是理想的温性缓补剂。

现代科学发现了冬虫夏草越来越多的神奇功效。总体而言，冬虫夏草不但对人体各种脏器的功能具有调节作用，还存在某些直接抗病功能。

一、调节免疫系统功能

免疫系统相当于人体中的军队，对内抵御肿瘤，清除老化、坏死的细胞组织，对外抗击病毒、细菌等微生物感染。人体每天都可能出现突变的肿瘤细胞。免疫系统功能正常的人体可以逃脱肿瘤的厄运，免疫系统功能出现问题的人，却可能发展成肿瘤。冬虫夏草对免疫系统的作用像是在调整音量，使其处于最佳状态。它既能增加免疫系统细胞、组织数量，促进抗体产生，增加吞噬、杀伤细胞数量、增强其功能，又可以调低某些免疫细胞的功能。

二、直接抗肿瘤作用

冬虫夏草提取物在体外具有明确的抑制、杀伤肿瘤细胞的作用。冬虫夏草中含有虫草素，是其发挥抗肿瘤作用的主要成分。
现代药理研究表明，冬虫夏草能激活巨噬细胞内酸性磷酸酶的活性，促进脾脏和肝脏内细胞的吞噬功能。能明显地提高肌体网状内皮系统吞噬能力，又能促进体内T淋巴细胞的转化，促进抗体的形成，提高机体的体液免疫功能，是一副扶正抗癌的滋补良药。不但可以补虚损、益精气、抗病原微生物菌，还可以治疗各种癌症、肿瘤。十分适宜需要补虚益气或患有肺癌、肾癌、肝癌、乳腺癌、食道癌、喉癌、子宫癌、前列腺癌等各种癌症的患者食用。
　根据2001年5月1日出版的《现代中药学大辞典》中记载：“冬虫夏草具有抗病原微生物作用，特别对葡萄球菌、链球菌、鼻疽杆菌、炭疽杆菌、猪出血性败血症杆菌等有抑制作用。冬虫夏草煎剂对絮状表皮癣菌、须疮癣菌、石膏样小芽胞癣菌、羊毛状小芽胞癣菌等真菌有抑制作用。”而其中对结核杆菌的作用各家报道却有不同的说法，但多数报道都认为冬虫夏草醇浸剂对于结核杆菌有一定抑制作用，抑菌浓度为1:4000-1:100000之间，而煎剂浓度在1:100-1:10000之间无抑菌作用。蛹虫草菌的代谢产物“冬虫夏草菌素”在浓度为0.1mg/ml时对鸟型结核杆菌有抑制作用；而浓度为1mg/ml时枯草杆菌亦有抑制作用。对感染鼻疽杆菌的兔，经静注虫草素（虫草酸）治疗后，可使给药组兔生存时间比对照组延长53h。而通过试管实验得知，体外试验其酒精浸出液1:4000-1:100000浓度时对结核杆菌H37RV有明显抑菌作用，加入血清后则抑菌作用减弱，需1:500才能抑制结核菌的生长，水煎剂对人型、牛型结核杆菌及耻垢杆菌均无抑制作用。对肺炎球菌及某些致病性真菌经初步试验有一定抑制作用。
　另外，在《医用中药药理学》一书中对冬虫夏草的抗菌抗癌作用也有相关的记载：“冬虫夏草制剂在试管内能抑制链球菌、鼻疽杆菌、炭疽杆菌、猪出血性败血症杆菌及葡萄状球菌的生长。冬虫夏草对HeLa细胞有显著抑制的作用，能使生命曲线、分裂指数、软琼脂生长能力、集落生成率的对比率相对比较低。同时，对淋巴瘤和Lewis肺癌的原发灶和自发性肺转移也都有显著抑制作用。连续注射从冬虫夏草提纯出来的拟青素，能增强ESC的NK细胞活性，在一定的范围内，拟青素浓度依赖性的抑制3H-TdR、3H-UR、3H-Leu掺入到EAC细胞DNA、RNA 和蛋白质分子中，这说明拟青素干扰EAC细胞核酸合成代谢。”我们可以采用程序外DNA合成（UDS）检测法来检测癌诱变剂MMS与蛹虫草同时作用脾淋巴细胞时，UDS反应性明显低于MMS单独使用时UDS反应性，这表示蛹虫草具有拮抗MMS所致BALB/C脾淋巴细胞DNA损伤的作用。此外，冬虫夏草还可以抑制喉癌细胞的生长曲线和克隆形成。虫草多糖能抑制S180肿瘤生长，增加外周血淋巴细胞酸性非特异酯酶阳性（ANAE+）细胞百分数，增强迟发性变态反应（DTH）及巨噬细胞吞噬活性。冬虫夏草可以诱导肾小管细胞cmc原癌基因mRNA持续高表达，增强转换生长因子基因表达，促进肾小管细胞生长，调节细胞凋亡。
　而虫草的水提物或醚提物可以明显抑制肉瘤，肺癌、乳腺癌等肿瘤的生长，增强一硫基嘌吟的抗癌作用。并且口服或腹腔给药均有效。虫草醇提物对前胃鳞状上皮增生无治疗作用，但是可以减少其癌变的发生率，抑制Lewis肺癌克隆的形成。冬虫夏草及人工虫草菌丝醇水提物对皮下植移性Lewis肺癌的原发灶生长和自发肺部转移均有明显的抑制作用，不但可以抑制S180肿瘤生长，而且还可以增加环磷酰胺的抗癌作用。
　总的来说，通过各方面的、有关联的、有权威性的资料里显示，针对于补虚益气或治疗肺癌、肾癌、肝癌、乳腺癌、食道癌、喉癌、子宫癌、前列腺癌等各种癌症、肿瘤，冬虫夏草的确是一副上佳良药。不管是治标还是治本，它都能在某中程度上起到一定的治疗作用。

三、提高细胞能量、抗疲劳

冬虫夏草能提高人体能量工厂--线粒体的能量，提高机体耐寒能力，减轻疲劳。

四、调节心脏功能　　

冬虫夏草可提高心脏耐缺氧能力，降低心脏对氧的消耗，抗心律失常。

五、调节肝脏功能

冬虫夏草可减轻有毒物质对肝脏的损伤，对抗肝纤维化的发生。此外，通过调节免疫功能，增强抗病毒能力，对病毒性肝炎发挥有利作用。

六、调节呼吸系统功能

冬虫夏草具有扩张支气管、平喘、祛痰、防止肺气肿的作用。

七、调节肾脏功能

冬虫夏草能减轻慢性病的肾脏病变，改善肾功能，减轻毒性物质对肾脏的损害。

八、调节造血功能

冬虫夏草能增强骨髓生成血小板、红细胞和白细胞的能力。

九、调节血脂

冬虫夏草可以降低血液中的胆固醇和甘油三酯，提高对人体有利的高密度脂蛋白，减轻动脉粥样硬化。

十、其他

冬虫夏草还具有直接抗病毒、调节中枢神经系统功能、调节性功能等作用。冬虫夏草能对人体起到如此全面的保健作用，可谓神奇之极，也无愧自古以来“仙草”的美称。在现代社会，服用冬虫夏草已不仅仅是本身身体健康的保证，更重要的，是由此带来的极致健康生活品质。

冬虫夏草菌丝体

冬虫夏草（Cordyceps）为麦角菌科真菌冬虫夏草菌寄生在蝙蝠蛾科昆虫幼虫上的子座及幼虫尸体的复合体，又称冬虫草、虫草等，生长于海拔3 500～5 000米的高原和高山地区。夏初子座出土、孢子未发散时挖取，晒至六七成干，除去似纤维状的附着物及杂质，晒干或低温干燥。近年由于天然资源日益稀少，大力开展人工虫草菌丝的培养。据报道，培养菌丝产物其成分与天然虫草基本相似。还含有4个环肽类化合物(Cyclopeptides cs-6、cs-10，cs-11，cs-19)。在四川康定的虫草产地，对当地大批的新鲜虫草进行了多次分离，得到的菌丝通过反接长出子实体，经鉴定为新种中华被毛孢Hirsutella sinensis Liu，Guo，Yu et Zeng，首次确定冬虫夏草Cordyceps sinensis的无性世代即是中华被毛孢。

冬虫夏草菌丝体源与虫草，却优于虫草。冬虫夏草是从野生冬虫夏草中分离到虫草真菌，经纯化、深层生物发酵培养加工成虫草菌丝体。大量研究表明：“冬虫夏草菌丝体在生长过程中不受自然界不利条件的影响，有效成份不受损失，所以品质优良”。测试数据证实，虫草菌丝体的主要有效成份—虫草素、虫草酸、虫草多糖等含量均高于野生虫草，并富含多种氨基酸和微量元素，而人体必需氨基酸含量远高于天然冬虫夏草。冬虫夏草菌丝体与天然虫草具有相似的化学成分、药理作用和临床疗效，且毒性比天然少，这就为冬虫夏草菌丝体代替天然冬虫夏草提供了科学依据。免疫功能测定表明：冬虫夏草菌丝体粉不但对抗体的非特异性免疫功能具有一定的作用，而且还能显著提高机体的特异性免疫能力，是一种良好的增强免疫药物。
