【Abstract】 Aralia elata is a traditional Chinese medicine with a long history of medicinal use. It is widely used in the treatment of various diseases. The main active components of Aralia elata are saponins and polysaccharides. It has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, heart protection, liver protection, and other functions. Since the last century, the research of Aralia elata has gradually delved into its specific chemical composition. This review introduced the considerable diversity of pharmacological effects of Aralia elata reported in numerous articles published in China and other countries and summarized the research progress of its chemical constituents, focusing on saponins and polysaccharides of monomers. The potential medicinal value of this plant and the shortcomings of current research were also discussed. It is hoped that this review will help expand the application of this high-value medicinal plant in drug therapy and further discover new drugs based on the active ingredients and secondary metabolites of this plant.更多还原
