Modern phytochemical investigations have identified over 200 bioactive compounds, predominantly flavonoids, tannins, triterpenoids, and phenolic acids. Pharmacological studies demonstrate that P. discolor exerts multi-target therapeutic effects through antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, antidiabetic, and anticancer activities. Its mechanisms involve modulation of key signaling pathways including PI3K/Akt, MAPK, NF-κB, and Nrf2/HO-1, alongside regulation of glucose-lipid metabolism and gut microbiota. This review systematically summarizes the phytochemistry, traditional applications, and contemporary pharmacological advances of P. discolor, emphasizing its multi-target characteristics and molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, current research limitations and future perspectives are discussed to provide scientific evidence for its clinical development and therapeutic applications.展开更多
