Abstract:
The chemical constituents and pharmacological activities on the genus of Symplocos were reviewed. Their constituents mainly included triterpenes and triterpenoid saponins, flavonoids, iridoids, lignans, alkaloids, polysaccharides and ellagic acids. A number of species among them have been used as folk medicine for the treatment of fever, detoxifying, acesodyne and hemostasis.
