Abstract:
Tinosporae Radix, as a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, is the dried root tuber of Tinospora sagittata or T. capillipes. It was first recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica Supplement in the Qing Dynasty and included in the previous edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. Tinosporae Radix is excavated in autumn and winter and used after removing fibrous roots, washing, and drying. It is indicated for sore throat, carbuncle boils poison, waist and abdominal pain, and various heat syndromes and is commonly used to treat chronic inflammation. Its efficacy is significantly known as “broad-spectrum antibiotics in Zhuang medicine”. Tinosporae Radix is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb often taken by Zhuang and Yao nationalities in Guangxi province and has a wide range of application and development values and research significance. Modern studies have shown that Tinosporae Radix contains diterpenoids, alkaloids, sterols, anthraquinones, glycosides, fatty acids, volatile oils, and other compounds, which have many pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory and analgesic, antibacterial and antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-tumor and anti-cancer effects, and it has achieved good efficacy in inhibiting inflammation and treating sore throat and other diseases. In recent years, there have been many research reports on the status, chemical constituents, pharmacological action, clinical application, and quality evaluation of Tinosporae Radix resources, but there is no systematic review and introduction at present. By consulting the literature and combining it with modern research, this paper systematically summarizes and collates Tinosporae Radix resources to provide guidance for the comprehensive development and utilization of Tinosporae Radix resources and subsequent in-depth study.
