Advances in research on 3,4′,5-trihydrostilbene-3-β-D-glucoside,an effective component from Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc


Abstract

  The advances in recent 10 years in research on 3,4′,5-trihydrostilbene-3-β-D-glucoside (polydatin), a effective component from Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. et Zucc., were summarized in this paper. The actions of polydatin, such as preventing thrombosis from arterial endothelial damage, improving microcirculation and increasing survival rate of shocked rats, alleviating tissueorgan damage induced by ischemia-reperfusion, oxygen free radical and endotoxin, decreasing hyperlipemia, suppressing lipid peroxide and so on were evaluated. The review displays the pharmacologic base of polydatin in treatment of thrombotic diseases and improvement of microcirculation in shock, which enable polydatin to become a new characteristic drug.
