Abstract:
Oxymatrine, the main active monomer composition of Sophora flavescens and Sopkoroa alopecuroides L. , has been used in clinic in China with many pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammation, scavenging free radicals, inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and improving insulin resistance. It may have important clinical application prospects in aging related metabol-ic and cognitive degeneration. This article reviews the current research status of oxymatrine in pharmacokinetics, toxicology and pharmacology.
