青兰属植物的化学成分及药理作用研究进展

唇形科(Labiatae)青兰属(Dracocephalum)植物约有60种，主要分布于亚洲温带，化学成分主要包括挥发油类、黄酮及黄酮苷类、植物甾醇及三萜类、有机酸及酯类等，具有抗缺氧、抗氧化、保护心血管、抗肿瘤和清除自由基等多种药理作用，近年来对其化学成分的研究受到很大的关注。本文综述主要青兰属植物的化学成分和药理活性的研究进展。

Research Advance in Chemical Compositions and Pharmacological Effects of Dracocephalum

Dracocephalum is a genus with approximately 60 species of flowering plants in the family of Lamiaceae, native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. The chemical components of some members in this family are well known, which include essential oils, flavonoids and flavonoid glycosides, plant sterols, organic acids and esters. Recently, much attention has been paid to Dracocephalum genus and its chemical components due to their diverse activities, such as antioxidant activity, antihypoxic activity, cardiovascular protective effects, antitumor activity and radical-scavenging effects. The chemical compositions of major plants from Dracocephalum genus and their pharmacological effects are reviewed in this paper with the goal of providing a reference for further research and development.
