Objective: Dioscorea Panthaica Rhizoma is the main raw material of Diao Xinxuekang
which was approved to sell as drug in Holland in 2012.In this review
researches of the chemical components of D. panthaica
their pharmacological actions and clinical applications were summarized based on the domestic and abroad literatures in past 15 years. The researches of the chemical constituents in D.panthaica focused on steroid saponins
which had curing myocardial ischemia
hypolipidemic and antitumous effecst
and its treatment of myocardial ischemia had drawn widely attention of medical field. Compounds isolated from this herb were less
and only dioscin underwent further researches of pharmacological activities. While the discoveries of the other steroidal saponins and their chemical constituents as well as their pharmacological actions were very scarce. Thereby further research of D. panthaica is worthwhile to fulfill the use of plant resources.
