摘要
Morus alba,commonly known as white mulberry,is a plant renowned for its diverse range of bioactive compounds that confer numerous health benefits.This review explores the plant’s antioxidant,anti-inflammatory,anticancer,cardiovascular,neuroprotective,hepatoprotective,and antimicrobial properties.The antioxidant effects,primarily attributed to flavonoids,phenolic acids,and terpenoids,help mitigate oxidative stress and protect against various diseases.The anti-inflammatory properties reduce chronic inflammation,while the anticancer compounds induce apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth.Morus alba’s cardiovascular benefits include improved endothelial function and lipid metabolism.Its neuroprotective effects protect the brain from oxidative damage and neuroinflammation,supporting cognitive function.The hepatoprotective activity enhances liver health and prevents damage from toxins.Additionally,the plant’s antimicrobial properties make it effective against a broad spectrum of pathogens.Overall,Morus alba holds significant potential as a natural therapeutic agent,with applications in both traditional and modern medicines.
桑树,俗称白桑,是一种以富含多种生物活性化合物而闻名的植物,这些化合物具有多种健康益处。本文探讨了该植物的抗氧化、抗炎、抗癌、抗菌以及保护心血管、神经、肝脏的特性。抗氧化作用主要归因于黄酮类化合物、酚酸和萜类化合物,有助于减轻氧化应激,预防各种疾病。抗炎特性可减少慢性炎症,而抗癌化合物可诱导细胞凋亡并抑制肿瘤生长。桑的心血管益处包括改善内皮功能和脂质代谢。桑树的神经保护作用可保护大脑免受氧化损伤和神经炎症,支持认知功能。肝保护活性增强肝脏健康,防止毒素损伤。此外,该植物的抗菌特性使其对多种病原体有效。总的来说,桑树作为一种天然治疗剂具有巨大的潜力,在传统和现代医学中都有应用。
