摘要

As a representative substance of stilbenes, oxyresveratrol has various kinds of biological activities including antineoplastic activity, antioxidant activity, tyrosinase inhibitory activity and ability of boosting the immune system. In this study, physical and chemical properties, extraction and separation, structural identification, medicinal activity and pharmacokinetics of oxyresveratrol and its derivatives were reviewed. Future perspectives and challenges involved in the use of oxyresveratrol were also very key discussed.
