<!--------------------



'''''Ephedra''''' is a [[genus]] of [[gymnosperm]] [[shrub]]s. The various species of ''Ephedra'' are widespread in many arid regions of the world, ranging across southwestern North America, southern Europe, northern Africa, southwest and central Asia, northern China and western South America.<ref name=liz10>[http://apps.kew.org/wcsp/namedetail.do?name_id=332845 Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families]</ref> It is the only extant genus in its family, [[Ephedraceae]], and order, Ephedrales, and one of the three living members of the division [[Gnetophyta]] alongside ''[[Gnetum]]'' and ''[[Welwitschia]].''

In [[temperate climates]], most ''Ephedra'' species grow on shores or in sandy soils with direct sun exposure. Common names in English include joint-pine, jointfir, Mormon-tea or Brigham tea. The Chinese name for ''Ephedra'' species is ''mahuang'' ({{zh|s=麻黄|t=麻黃|p=máhuáng|w=ma-huang|l=hemp yellow}}). ''Ephedra'' is the origin of the name of the stimulant [[ephedrine]], which the plants contain in significant concentration.

==Description==
The family [[Ephedraceae]], of which ''Ephedra'' is the only extant genus, are [[gymnosperms]], and generally shrubs, sometimes clambering vines, and rarely, small trees. Members of the genus frequently spread by the use of [[rhizome]]s.<ref name=judd/>

The stems are green and photosynthetic.<ref name=apg/> The leaves are opposite or whorled. The scalelike leaves fuse into a sheath at the base and this often sheds soon after development.
There are no resin canals.<ref name=judd/>

The plants are mostly [[Dioecy|dioecious]], with the pollen [[strobilus|strobili]] in whorls of 1–10, each consisting of a series of decussate<ref name=vic/> bracts. The pollen is furrowed. The female strobili also occur in whorls, with bracts which fuse around a single ovule. Fleshy bracts are white (such as in ''[[Ephedra frustillata]]'') or red. There are generally 1–2 yellow to dark brown seeds per strobilus.<ref name=judd/>


==Taxonomy==
The genus ''Ephedra'' was first described in 1753 by [[Carl Linnaeus]],<ref name=gymno/><ref name=linn/><ref name=linn2/> and the [[type species]] is ''[[Ephedra distachya]]''.<ref name=linn/> The family, Ephedraceae, was first described in 1829 by [[Dumort.|Dumortier]].<ref name=gymno>[https://www.conifers.org/ep/Ephedraceae.php The Gymnosperm database: ''Ephedra''.] Retrieved 5 julho 2019.</ref><ref name=dumort/>

=== Evolutionary history ===
The oldest known members of the genus are from the [[Early Cretaceous]] around 125 million years ago, with records being known from the [[Aptian]]-[[Albian]] of Argentina,<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Puebla GG, Iglesias A, Gómez MA, Prámparo MB | title = Fossil record of Ephedra in the Lower Cretaceous (Aptian), Argentina | journal = Journal of Plant Research | volume = 130 | issue = 6 | pages = 975–988 | date = novembro 2017 | pmid = 28528483 | doi = 10.1007/s10265-017-0953-1 | hdl = 11336/59894 | s2cid = 23766815 | url = http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10265-017-0953-1 | hdl-access = free }}</ref> China,<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Yang Y, Wang Q | title = The earliest fleshy cone of Ephedra from the early cretaceous Yixian Formation of northeast China | journal = PLOS ONE | volume = 8 | issue = 1 | pages = e53652 | date = 14 janeiro 2013 | pmid = 23341964 | pmc = 3544918 | doi = 10.1371/journal.pone.0053652 | bibcode = 2013PLoSO...853652Y | doi-access = free }}</ref> Portugal and the United States.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Rydin C, Pedersen KR, Crane PR, Friis EM | title = Former diversity of Ephedra (Gnetales): evidence from Early Cretaceous seeds from Portugal and North America | journal = Annals of Botany | volume = 98 | issue = 1 | pages = 123–40 | date = julho 2006 | pmid = 16675607 | pmc = 2803531 | doi = 10.1093/aob/mcl078 | url = }}</ref> The fossil record of ''Ephedra'' outside of pollen disappears after the Early Cretaceous.<ref name="Bolinder-2016">{{Cite journal|last1=Bolinder|first1=Kristina|last2=Norbäck Ivarsson|first2=Lena|last3=Humphreys|first3=Aelys M.|last4=Ickert-Bond|first4=Stefanie M.|last5=Han|first5=Fang|last6=Hoorn|first6=Carina|last7=Rydin|first7=Catarina|date=2 janeiro 2016|title=Pollen morphology of Ephedra (Gnetales) and its evolutionary implications|url=http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00173134.2015.1066424|journal=Grana|language=en|volume=55|issue=1|pages=24–51|doi=10.1080/00173134.2015.1066424|s2cid=83696018|issn=0017-3134}}</ref> [[Molecular clock]] estimates have suggested that last common ancestor of living ''Ephedra'' species lived much more recently, during the [[Rupelian|Early Oligocene]] around 30 million years ago.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Ickert‐Bond|first1=Stefanie M.|last2=Rydin|first2=Catarina|last3=Renner|first3=Susanne S.|date=2009|title=A fossil-calibrated relaxed clock for Ephedra indicates an Oligocene age for the divergence of Asian and New World clades and Miocene dispersal into South America|journal=Journal of Systematics and Evolution|language=en|volume=47|issue=5|pages=444–456|doi=10.1111/j.1759-6831.2009.00053.x|issn=1759-6831|doi-access=free}}</ref> However, pollen modified from the ancestral condition of the genus with branched pseudosulci (grooves), which [[Parallel evolution|evolved in parallel]] in the living North American and Asian lineages is known from the [[Late Cretaceous]], suggesting that the last common ancestor is at least this old.<ref name="Bolinder-2016" />

==Distribution==
The genus is found worldwide, in desert regions, but not in Australia.<ref name=judd/>

==Ecology==
[[File:Ephedra major shrubs near the gorge.jpg|thumb|Shrubs of ''Ephedra major'' in [[Karvachar]]]]
Ephedraceae are adapted to extremely arid regions, growing often in high sunny habitats, and occur as high as 4000 m above sea level in both the [[Andes]] and the [[Himalayas]].<ref name=judd/> They make up a significant part of the North American [[Great Basin Desert|Great Basin]] sage brush ecosystem.

==Drug and supplement uses==
{{main|Ephedra (medicine)}}
[[File:Maou.jpg|thumb|upright|Plant as used in Chinese herbology ([[crude medicine]])]]
The ''Ephedra'' [[alkaloid]]s, [[ephedrine]] and [[pseudoephedrine]] {{ndash}} constituents of ''E.&nbsp;sinica'' and other members of the genus {{ndash}} have [[Sympathomimetic amine|sympathomimetic]] and [[decongestant]] qualities,<ref name="drugs">{{cite web |title=Ephedrine |url=https://www.drugs.com/cons/ephedrine-intravenous.html |publisher=Drugs.com |access-date=23 Junho 2021 |date=9 janeiro 2021}}</ref> and have been used as [[dietary supplement]]s, mainly for [[weight loss]].<ref name="nccih">{{cite web |title=Ephedra |url=https://www.nccih.nih.gov/health/ephedra |publisher=National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, US National Institutes of Health |access-date=23 Junho 2021 |date=1 julho 2020}}</ref> The drug, ''ephedrine'', is used to prevent [[hypotension|low blood pressure]] during [[spinal anesthesia]].<ref name=drugs/>

In the United States, ephedra supplements were banned from the market in the early 21st century due to serious safety risks.<ref name=nccih/> Plants of the genus ''Ephedra'', including ''[[Ephedra sinica|E.&nbsp;sinica]]'' and others, were used in [[traditional medicine]] for treating headache and [[respiratory infection]]s, but there is no scientific evidence they are effective or safe for these purposes.<ref name=nccih/>

Ephedra has also had a role as a precursor in the clandestine manufacture of [[methamphetamine]].<ref name="precursor">{{cite web |title=Ephedra's Role As a Precursor in the Clandestine Manufacture of Methamphetamine|publisher=Journal of Forensic Sciences 40(4), 551-560 (1995) |url=https://chemistry.mdma.ch/hiveboard/rhodium/ephedra.html|access-date=30 Dec 2021}}</ref>

==Adverse effects==
Alkaloids obtained from the species of ''Ephedra'' used in herbal medicines, which are used to synthetically prepare [[pseudoephedrine]] and ephedrine, can cause cardiovascular events.<ref name=drugs/> These events have been associated with arrhythmias, palpitations, tachycardia and myocardial infarction.<ref name=drugs/> [[Caffeine]] consumption in combination with ephedrine has been reported to increase the risk of these cardiovascular events.<ref name=drugs/><ref name=nccih/>

==Economic botany and alkaloid content==
The earliest uses of ''Ephedra'' species (mahuang) for specific illnesses date back to 5000 BC. [[Ephedrine]] and its [[isomers]] were isolated in 1881 from ''[[Ephedra distachya]]'' and characterized by the Japanese [[organic chemist]] [[Nagai Nagayoshi]]. His work to access ''Ephedra's'' active ingredients to isolate a pure [[pharmaceutical]] substance led to the systematic production of [[semi-synthetic]] [[Derivative (chemistry)|derivative]]s thereof is relevant still today. Three species, ''[[Ephedra sinica]]'', ''Ephedra vulgaris'', and to a lesser extent ''[[Ephedra equisetina]]'', are commercially grown in [[Mainland China]] as a source for natural ephedrines and isomers for use in [[pharmacy|pharmaceuticals]]. ''E. sinica'' and ''E. distachya'' usually carry six [[optically active]] [[phenylethylamines]], mostly [[ephedrine]] and [[pseudoephedrine]] with minor amounts of [[norephedrine]], [[Cathine|norpseudoephedrine]] as well as the three [[methylated]] analogs. Reliable information on the total alkaloid content of the crude drug is difficult to obtain. Based on [[HPLC]] analyses in industrial settings, the concentrations of total alkaloids in dried ''Herba Ephedra'' ranged between 1 and 4%, and in some cases up to 6%.<ref>{{cite book | veditors = Brossi A | date = 1989 | url = https://books.google.com/books?id=aQ16om_WW60C&pg=PA106 | title = The Alkaloids: Chemistry and Pharmacology | volume = 35 | isbn = 0-12-469535-3 }}</ref>

Ephedra é um género de arbustos pertencentes às Gnetófitas, único na classe Ephedraceae da ordem Gnetales. Seu uso medicinal está documentado desde há cinco mil anos na China, onde esta erva é conhecida pelo nome ma huang. Os colonizadores adeptos a religião mórmon nos Estados Unidos conheceram seu uso ao estabelecerem contato com povos indígenas dos ute (ver Utah). Estas plantas ocorrem em climas áridos, numa vasta área que inclui a Europa, Norte de África, Ásia central e sudoeste, América do Norte e do Sul. São conhecidas variadas aplicações medicinais, principalmente devido ao facto de concentrar grandes quantidades de efedrina.

As suas propriedades são usadas na preparação de produtos dietéticos de redução de apetite, e podem causar efeitos secundários graves. Presentemente, o uso de extractos de Ephedra está proibido nos Estados Unidos.

Contraindicações e efeitos colaterais

A espécie é produtora de efedrina e pseudoefedrina, sendo contraindicada para pessoas com debilidades, pressão alta, doenças cardíacas, tireoide hiperativa, diabetes, hepatite, problemas digestivos, glaucoma e insônia. Isto porque os extratos concentrados podem causar arritmias, insônia, ansiedade e vertigem. Suas propriedades também estão associados a nervosismo, insônia, hipertensão ou erupções cutâneas em alguns casos raros. Seu uso é vetado para crianças e mulheres grávidas.
