金花茶抗病毒作用研究进展

Progress on the Antiviral Effect of Camellia nitidissima Chi

金花茶是山茶科山茶属的常绿灌木或小乔木植物,属于无毒性植物,其花和叶富含多种对人体健康具有重要意义的天然成分,且某些成分能够影响到传染性病毒的生命活动,现已逐渐成为制作花茶、叶茶保健饮品的首选植物资源。论文基于近年来有关金花茶药理作用方面的研究资料,对其抗病毒作用进行了系统性分析,重点阐述了金花茶拮抗几种常见DNA和RNA病毒的机制的最新研究进展,以期为后续金花茶抗病毒作用相关研究提供参考,为开发含金花茶等天然植物生物活性与营养成分的具有保健作用及药用价值的产品提供理论依据。

Camellia nitidissima Chi(CNC)is evergreen shrub or small tree plant of Camellia in Theaceae and belongs to the non-toxic plants.Its flowers and leaves are rich in a variety of natural ingredients that are of great significance to human health,and some ingredients can affect the life activities of infectious virus,and thereby have gradually become the first choice of plant resources for the production of scented tea and leaf tea health drinks.Based on the literatures related with the pharmacologic actions of CNC in recent years,this article systematically reviewed the antiviral effects of CNC and highlighted the latest research progress on the mechanism of antagonizing several common DNA and RNA viruses,in order to provide effective reference for the subsequent study of antiviral effect of CNC and provide an important theoretical basis for the development of products with health care and medicinal value containing the biological activities and nutritional components of the natural plants such as CNC.
