重楼替代药材丫蕊花研究进展

Research progress in Ypsilandra thibetica,a substitute plant of Paris polyphylla

百合科(Liliaceae)丫蕊花属植物具有和重楼属十分相似的化学成分及药理活性。丫蕊花和重楼活性成分主要为甾体皂苷,具有抗菌、止血、抗肿瘤等药理作用,因此丫蕊花具有替代重楼的药效物质基础,可在一定程度上缓解重楼资源危机。综述丫蕊花的研究进展,以期为加快丫蕊花的研究开发和利用提供参考。

The plants in genus Ypsilandra Franch （Liliaceae） have similar chemical constituents and pharmacological activities with Paris L., the major active ingredients of them are steroidal saponins, and their pharmacological effects include antibacterial, antitumor, and hemostasis. Therefore, Ypsilandra thibetica could replace Paris L. to some extent and alleviate its crisis. In this paper, the research progress of the current studies of Y. thibetica is summarized. It may provide the reference for the further studies of this plant.
