intramuscular injection every day for 9 consecutive days)

Oral administration, 10g/kg/d, for 9 consecutive days, increased the concentration of glucocorticoids in the blood of yang-deficient mice and restored it to normal levels; but had no effect on the serum cortisol concentration of normal mice. It has been reported that Cynomorium songaricum water extract can significantly reduce the testicular wet weight and plasma testosterone content of normal and yang-deficient male mice.

Intragastric administration of Cynomorium songaricum water extract had no significant improvement effect on the microcirculation of yang-deficiency mice, suggesting that Cynomorium songaricum has no corrective effect on the deficiency of qi and blood caused by kidney-yang deficiency. Subcutaneous injection of Cynomorium songaricum extract into mice promoted the growth of granulocyte progenitor cells.

Cynomorium songaricum is the most commonly used herb for kidney tonification.
