龙胆属环烯醚萜类化学成分研究进展

Research progress on iridoids in Gentiana L.

龙胆属Gentiana L.是龙胆科(Gentianaceae)中最大的属。该属植物中含有大量具有药理活性的化学成分,尤其富含环烯醚萜类成分,这类成分具有较好的保肝、抗炎解热、抗病毒等药理作用。对龙胆属植物中环烯醚萜类化学成分进行了分类综述,以期为龙胆属化学成分研究及药用资源的开发与利用提供参考。

Gentiana L. is the largest genera in Gentianaceae. Plants in Gentiana L. contain a lot of chemical constituents with pharmacological activities, especially iridoids. Iridoids has good hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antiviral, and other pharmacological effects. This article summarizes the research progress of iridoids in plants from Gentiana L., which provide references for the studies of chemical constituents in Gentiana L. and the exploitation of medicinal resources.
