典籍記載之相關效用:

丹參的根,味苦性微寒,有活血化瘀、安神寧心、調經止痛、涼血消腫之效,主治月經不調、痛經、經閉、產後瘀滯腹痛、心腹疼痛、癥瘕積聚、熱痺腫痛、跌打損傷、煩躁不安、心煩失眠等。《台灣藥用植物資源名錄 399》

丹參《神農本草經》為丹參甘西鼠尾草的根,味苦性微寒,有活血祛瘀、調經止痛、養血安神、涼血消癰之效,主治婦女月經不調、痛經、經閉、產後瘀滯腹痛、心腹疼痛、癥瘕積聚、熱痹腫痛、跌打損傷、熱入營血、煩躁不安、心煩失眠、癰瘡腫毒等。《中華本草》

藥理研究:

丹參的藥理活性很多,本所研究人員參與的研究如下:代謝酶調節作用 [1-3]:在體外實驗證實丹參酮 IIA (tanshinone IIA) 具細胞色素 CYP1A2 抑制活性;在 C57BL/6J 小鼠實驗則發現丹參酮 IIA 誘導 CYP1A;進一步證明丹參提取物可以誘導細胞色素 P450 依賴的單氧酶。保肝和抗纖維化作用 [4-7]:實驗證實丹酚酸A (salvianolic acid A) 可藉由凋亡作用抑制 PDGF-誘發的肝星狀細胞增殖。也證實丹酚酸B (salvianolic acid B) 可改善肝細胞氧化損傷和消除活性氧積累,及衰減肝星狀細胞活化;結果表明丹酚酸B具潛在保肝和抗纖維化作用。也實驗表明丹參、川芎、甘草的混合提取對N-亞硝基二甲胺 (DMN)-誘導大鼠肝纖維化模式具有抗纖維化作用。也證實丹參成分的丹參酮 IIA 也會降低 LPS 誘導肝星狀細胞活化。抑制巨噬細胞遷移 [8-9]:實驗證實丹參的隱丹參酮 (cryptotanshinone) 可藉由抑制F-肌動蛋白聚合和絲狀偽足外伸而阻礙補體5a (C5a) 及MIP-la所誘導的巨噬細胞遷移。抗白血病活性 [10]:在 CCRF-CEM 類淋巴母細胞株及其多重抗藥性細胞株 CEM/ADR5000 的實驗發現,丹參的迷迭香酸 (rosmarinic acid) 能誘導細胞凋亡和壞死,能使細胞週期停滯而抑制生長。

化學成分研究:

從丹參分離出 5 個含氮化合物 neosalvianen, salvianen, salvianan, salviadione, 5-(methoxymethyl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde;其中 salvianen 對三種癌細胞株具細胞毒性 [11] 從丹參根的乙醇提取中分離到 salvianonol, salviamone, 2α-acetoxysugiol, palmitoyl arucadiol, (E)-4-[5-(hydroxylmethyl)furan-2-yl]but-3-en- 2-one, dihydroisotanshinone I, danshenxinkun A & B, 1,2-dihydrotanshinone I, abietic acid 等芳香族成分 [12]
