Through textual research and surveying on officinal varieties of Rhizoma Arisaematis, we considered the following results. The name of Rhizoma Arisaematis is in ceaseless change and its original is in confusion in the development of bencaology history. The original plants as Rhizoma Arisaematis are from many species and have wide distribution. This review can provide important reference for exploitation and utilization of resources and further development of Rhizoma Arisaematis through the discussion of the state of its original plant, distribution and mainstream varieties in the current market.

Arisaema cum bile (known as Dan Nanxing in Chinese, DNX) is a herbal medicine used for treating febrile seizure (FS), which commonly prepared by using Arisaematis Rhizoma and animal bile. This study was designed to explore the optimal processing time of DNX and its potential mechanism on the anti-FS effect. A total of 17 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were the characteristic ones to distinguish different fermentation stages of DNX by using gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS), such as 2-heptanone monomer, and heptanal monomer.

Background: Arisaematis Rhizome (AR) has been used as a damp-drying, phlegm-resolving, wind-expelling, pain-alleviating, and swelling-relieving drug for thousands of years. However, the toxicity limits its clinical applications. Therefore, AR is usually processed (Paozhi in Chinese) prior to clinical use.

[Study on drug properties of Arisaematis Rhizoma and Arisaema Cum Bile based on substance and energy metabolism in normal and cold/heat syndrome model rats].

Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi

September 2022

Key Laboratory of Basic and Application Research of Beiyao, Ministry of Education, Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine Harbin 150040, China School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Guangdong Pharmaceutical University Guangzhou 510006, China.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated the effects of two Chinese herbal medicines, Arisaematis Rhizoma and Arisaema Cum Bile, on the metabolism of healthy rats and those with cold or heat syndrome.
  • The researchers induced cold and heat syndrome in rat models and administered the herbal decoctions to observe changes in body weight, temperature, and key metabolic markers in the liver and heart.
  • Findings indicated that Arisaematis Rhizoma increased metabolic activity and body temperature (showing warm properties), while Arisaema Cum Bile reduced these levels (indicating cool properties), helping to improve the evaluation methods for traditional Chinese medicine.

Electronic address:

Background: Pinelliae Rhizoma (PR), a toxic medication, with long history, is commonly used for eliminating phlegm. Due to the shortage of wild resources and the relative lacking of cultivation technology, it is often confused with its counterfeit species in the market, such as Typhonii Rhizoma (TR), Arisaematis Rhizoma (AR) and tubers of Typhonium flagelliforme (TF) and Pinellia pedatisecta (PP).

Purpose: It was aimed to screen signature enzymatic peptides from toxic proteins to identify PR and its four counterfeit species.
