Abstract
Introduction: Morus alba, a member of the Moraceae family, has a long history of medicinal use in China. Its branches, fruits, leaves, and root bark are rich in various bioactive compounds, including flavonoids, alkaloids, and other phytochemicals. These plant parts exhibit a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities, such as antidiabetic, antitumor, antibacterial, and antioxidant effects. Owing to these properties, various parts of M. alba have been developed into functional foods and health products, attracting considerable public and scientific interest.
Objectives: This review aims to summarize current knowledge on the phytochemistry, pharmacological activities, and product development related to different parts of M. alba, with particular emphasis on their respective roles in the development of functional products.
Methods: Relevant literature was retrieved from major scientific databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Information related to the phytochemistry, pharmacological effects, and product development of various parts of M. alba was systematically collected and analyzed.
Results: This review summarizes the chemical composition of different parts of M. alba and their corresponding pharmacological properties. It also highlights recent advancements in the development of functional products derived from M. alba.
Conclusions: M.orus alba contains a wide array of bioactive compounds with promising pharmacological potential. Its various parts have demonstrated potential in the prevention and management of chronic diseases and have been increasingly utilized in the development of functional health products. Further interdisciplinary studies are warranted to facilitate its translational application in modern healthcare.
简介：桑属桑科植物，在中国有着悠久的药用历史。它的树枝、果实、叶子和根皮富含各种生物活性化合物，包括类黄酮、生物碱和其他植物化学物质。这些植物部分具有广泛的药理活性，如抗糖尿病、抗肿瘤、抗菌和抗氧化作用。由于这些特性，M. alba的各个部分已被开发成功能食品和保健品，引起了相当大的公众和科学兴趣。目的：本文综述了白刺不同部位在植物化学、药理活性和产品开发方面的研究进展，重点介绍了白刺不同部位在功能性产品开发中的作用。方法：检索PubMed、Web of Science、ScienceDirect、谷歌Scholar等主要科学数据库的相关文献。系统地收集和分析了白屈菌各部位的植物化学、药理作用和产品开发等相关信息。结果：综述了白念珠不同部位的化学成分及其药理作用。它还强调了从M. alba衍生的功能性产品开发的最新进展。结论：白念珠菌含有多种生物活性化合物，具有良好的药理潜力。它的各个部分在慢性疾病的预防和管理方面显示出潜力，并越来越多地用于功能性保健产品的开发。进一步的跨学科研究是必要的，以促进其在现代医疗保健的转化应用。
期刊介绍：
Phytochemical Analysis is devoted to the publication of original articles concerning the development, improvement, validation and/or extension of application of analytical methodology in the plant sciences. The spectrum of coverage is broad, encompassing methods and techniques relevant to the detection (including bio-screening), extraction, separation, purification, identification and quantification of compounds in plant biochemistry, plant cellular and molecular biology, plant biotechnology, the food sciences, agriculture and horticulture. The Journal publishes papers describing significant novelty in the analysis of whole plants (including algae), plant cells, tissues and organs, plant-derived extracts and plant products (including those which have been partially or completely refined for use in the food, agrochemical, pharmaceutical and related industries). All forms of physical, chemical, biochemical, spectroscopic, radiometric, electrometric, chromatographic, metabolomic and chemometric investigations of plant products (monomeric species as well as polymeric molecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates) are included within the remit of the Journal. Papers dealing with novel methods relating to areas such as data handling/ data mining in plant sciences will also be welcomed.
