Propolis is a sticky substance produced by stingless bees for construction and defence of their hive. It has notable anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-hyperglycemic, and wound healing effects. The present review summarised and examined the phytochemical properties, mode of action and current research prospects of Malaysian propolis. A database search using Google Scholar, Web of Science and ScienceDirect generated 780 references; 30 relevant articles were included in the present review, of which 23 were studies and 7 were or animal studies. Propolis demonstrated antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory and anti-hyperglycemic properties, indicating potential as a wound healing agent. Despite favourable findings, due to the scarcity of studies in the literature, more in-depth research and clinical validation on the synergistic effects, efficacy and optimum dosage of propolis are needed.
蜂胶是一种由无刺蜂产生的粘性物质，用于建造和保卫蜂巢。它具有显著的抗炎、抗氧化、抗菌、抗真菌、抗高血糖和伤口愈合作用。本综述总结并研究了马来西亚蜂胶的植物化学特性、作用方式和当前的研究前景。通过谷歌学术、科学网和科学Direct进行数据库搜索，共获得780篇参考文献；本综述纳入了30篇相关文章，其中23篇为研究报告，7篇为综述或动物研究。蜂胶具有抗氧化、抗菌、抗真菌、抗炎和抗高血糖特性，表明其具有作为伤口愈合剂的潜力。尽管有这些有利的研究结果，但由于文献中研究较少，仍需要对蜂胶的协同作用、疗效和最佳剂量进行更深入的研究和临床验证。
