紫穗槐化学成分及药理活性研究进展

Research Progress of Chemical Composition and Pharmacological Effectiveness of Amorpha fruticosa

本文通过查阅国内、外相关文献,对豆科紫穗槐属紫穗槐Amorpha fruticosa的化学成分和药理活性进行分析、总结,为进一步研究紫穗槐的化学成分及药理活性提供参考。通过研究发现紫穗槐含有黄酮、二苯乙烯苷、挥发油等化学成分,具有抗肿瘤、保肝、杀虫、抗菌等药理活性。目前对紫穗槐的化学成分和药理活性的研究取得了一定的进展,尤其在抗肿瘤和保肝、杀虫中的作用受到医药领域的关注,但是缺少其具体有效成分及其作用机制的研究。对紫穗槐进一步的研究将有利于开发新的药物和充分利用天然药物资源。

Based on the related literature both domestic and abroad, this paper summarized the chemical constituents and pharmacological activities of Amorpha fruticosa in order to provide the reference for the further study of A. fruticosa. We found that A. fruticosa contained a variety of flavonoids, polyhydrostilbenes and volatile oils etc. , which showed various activites including anti-tumor, protecting liver, insecticidal activity, antimicrobial activity, and so on. Herein, we had made some progress on its chemical constituents and pharmacological actions. However, its effective constituents and mechanism of actions have been lack of research. The luther research will be helpful to the development of new medcines and the utilization of plant resources sufficiently.
