Abstract
Cannabis sativa fruit (Cannabis Fructus) refers to the dried and ripe fruit of Cannabis sativa L. It is widely distributed in the northeast, North, and South China. It has medicinal, ecological, and economic values. This study aimed to review the chemical constituents and pharmacological activities of Cannabis Fructus, providing a reference for further exploration of Cannabis Fructus. Comprehensive information on Cannabis Fructus was collected via electronic searches (e.g., Google Scholar, PubMed, Sci Finder, and Web of Science) and from books on phytochemistry. Cannabis Fructus contains various compounds such as phenylpropanoids, flavonoids, steroids and terpenoids, cannabinoids, fatty acids, alkaloids, phenanthrenes, proteins, and polysaccharides. Its active ingredients exhibit anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-aging, anti-fatigue, anti-tumor, anti-constipation, neuroprotective, lipoid-regulating, hepatoprotective, and immunomodulatory properties.
大麻果(Cannabis Fructus)是指大麻(Cannabis sativa L.)的干燥成熟果实,广泛分布于中国东北、华北和华南地区。它具有药用、生态和经济价值。本研究旨在综述大麻果的化学成分和药理活性,为进一步探索大麻果提供参考。研究人员通过电子检索(如 Google Scholar、PubMed、Sci Finder 和 Web of Science)和植物化学书籍收集了有关大麻果的全面信息。大麻果含有多种化合物,如苯丙酮类、黄酮类、类固醇和萜类、大麻素、脂肪酸、生物碱、菲类、蛋白质和多糖。其活性成分具有抗炎、抗氧化、抗菌、抗衰老、抗疲劳、抗肿瘤、抗便秘、保护神经、调节类脂质、保护肝脏和免疫调节等特性。
