is a popular in China, and it could be applied in the treatment of various diseases. It contains a variety of chemically active ingredients, such as saponins, flavonoids, and polysaccharides. Plant-derived bioactive chemicals are considered natural, safe, and beneficial. Among the infinite plant-identified and isolated molecules, flavonoids have been reported to have positive effects on human health. Calycosin is the most important active flavonoid substance identified predominantly within this medicinal plant. In recent years, calycosin has been reported to have anticancer, antioxidative, immune-modulatory, and estrogenic-like properties. This review collected recent relevant literatures on calycosin and summarized its potential pharmaceutical properties and working mechanism involved, which provided solid basis for future clinical research.
在中国很受欢迎,可用于治疗多种疾病。它含有多种化学活性成分,如皂苷、黄酮类化合物和多糖。植物源生物活性化学物质被认为是天然、安全且有益的。在无数已鉴定和分离的植物分子中,黄酮类化合物已被报道对人体健康有积极影响。毛蕊异黄酮是在这种药用植物中主要鉴定出的最重要的活性黄酮类物质。近年来,毛蕊异黄酮已被报道具有抗癌、抗氧化、免疫调节和类雌激素特性。本综述收集了近期关于毛蕊异黄酮的相关文献,并总结了其潜在的药学特性和作用机制,为未来的临床研究提供了坚实的基础。
