摘要
This review discusses a whole plant's chemical nature and biological effects of Artemisia sieversiana Ehrhart ex willd (ASS). Several types of chemical compositions have been isolated from A. sieversiana, including 26 terpenoids (21 guaiane-type sesquiterpenes, 3 germacrane-type sesquiterpenes, 1 muurolane-type sesquiterpene, and 1 diterpenoid), 16 sesamin-type lignans, 9 flavonoids, 3 steroids, and 3 alkaloids. Some of them have shown promising bioactivities, such as anti-tumour, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant functions and so on. Herein, we have summarized the phytochemical and pharmacological progress of ASS.
