Abstract:
The chemical constituents isolated from the plants of Euchresta J. Benn (Fabaceae) included flavonoids, alkaloids, and steroids compounds. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that the species in Euchresta J. Benn have antitumor, anti-HIV, antiplatelet aggregation, central inhibition, anti-oxidant, reducing blood lipid, and antibacterial activities. This article mainly reviewed the research advances in the chemical constituents and their biological activities of the plants in Euchresta J. Benn.
