Abstract:Curculigo orchioides is a perennial herbaceous plant in the amaryllidaceae family,which is rich in many important biologically active substances such as polysaccharides,saponins,phenols,phenol glycosides,terpenes and so on,which have been used medicinally in many countries,and it is also included in the Pharmacopoeia of the People′s Republic of China(hereinafter referred to as "Chinese Pharmacopoeia").The pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine suggests that Curculigo orchioides has the effect of promoting blood and reducing swelling,invigorating the kidney and yang,strengthening muscles and bones,and nourishing essence and blood,it is used for clinical symptoms such as deficiency of kidney yang,cold pain in the lumbar and spine,cold deficiency and uterine bleeding,vaginal discharge,sore swelling and pain,kidney empty internal injury,muscle pain and so on.Modern pharmacological studies have confirmed that Curculigo orchioides has anti-inflammatory,anti-oxidant,anti-osteoporosis,anti-depressant,immune regulation,and protection of vascular endothelial cells,it is of great significance for the treatment of cardiovascular,osteoporosis,diabetes,rheumatism and other related diseases.In this paper,the modern pharmacological effect,toxic and side effect of Curculigo orchioides are reviewed,in order to provide a research basis for the clinical application of Curculigo orchioides.
