蛇床子植物学相关研究进展

Progress in Plant Biology Research of Fructus Cnidii

摘要:

蛇床子是一种传统中药，是伞形科（Apiaceae）植物蛇床（Cnidium monnieri）的干燥成熟果实，主要有效成分为蛇床子素及其它香豆素类化合物。蛇床子具有抗心律失常、抗病毒、抗肿瘤等多种功效，并且广泛应用于白癜风、银屑病等多种皮肤病的治疗。蛇床适应性强，分布广泛，但不同产地的蛇床子药材品质差异较大，需要仔细鉴别入药。对蛇床的生物学特性、产地特征、栽培研究和鉴别方法等进行了综述，并展望了未来产学研结合的蛇床子植物学研究的发展趋势。

Abstract:

Fructus Cnidii is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine, which is the dried and mature fruit of Cnidium monnieri. The main active compounds in Fructus Cnidii are osthol and other coumarins. Fructus Cnidii was found to have anti-arrhythmia, anti-virus, anti-tumor and many other activities, widely used in the treatment of skin diseases, including vitiligo and psoriasis. Cnidium monnieri has strong adaptability and widely distributes in China, but the quality of Fructus Cnidii from different origins are quite different, so it needs to be checked carefully before used as a medicine. The biological characteristics and identification methods of Fructus Cnidii were reviewed, and the future trend of plant biology research on Fructus Cnidii was prospected.
