In this review, we summarized the recent researches of Danshen in traditional uses and preparations, chemical constituents, pharmacological activities and side effects. A total of 201 compounds from Danshen have been reported, including lipophilic diterpenoids, water-soluble phenolic acids, and other constituents, which have showed various pharmacological activities, such as anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, anti-tumor, anti-atherogenesis, and anti-diabetes. This article intends to provide novel insight information for further development of Danshen, which could be of great value to its improvement of utilization.展开更多

Ohwi or P. thomsonii Benth. It shows significant pharmacological activities in the treatment ofcardiovascular diseases, hypertension, and diabetes. This review summarizes progress in the chemistry study of Puerariaspecies, mainly covering the classes of flavonoids, puerosides, coumarins, triterpenoids, and triterpene saponins. Qualitative andquantitative chemical analyses are also covered.展开更多
