Abstract:
As a major flavonoid in the leaves of Ampelopsis grossedentata, dihydromyricelin has attracted the wide attention in recent years. Studies showed that dihydromyricelin has multiple pharmacological effects, such as antitumor, anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, blood lipid regulation, anti-temulence and liver protection, antidiabetics, and anti-pathogeny microorganism. We made a summary for domestic and foreign study literatures for various pharmacological effects of dihydromyricelin in the recent decade, in the expectation of providing the scientific basis for the in-depth studies, as well as the utilization of dihydromyricelin and its medicinal resource.
