Research progress on phytochemistry and pharmacology of <i>Staphylea arguta</i> (Lindl.) Byng & Christenh. and prediction of quality markers: a review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Staphylea arguta (Lindl.) Byng & Christenh. [Staphyleaceae] (Staphylea arguta), a tree or shrub species belonging to the Staphyleaceae family, is widely distributed in subtropical regions of China, particularly in Jiangxi Province, where it is recognized as a geo-authentic botanical drug. It thrives in humid, shaded mountainous areas at elevations of 400-700 m. Traditionally, it has been used for treating breast abscesses, paralysis, sore throat, ulcers, and contusions. Despite its widespread use, systematic reviews on its phytochemistry and pharmacology are limited, and quality control remains challenging due to the lack of standardized markers. This review aims to summarize its metabolites and pharmacological activities, and predict potentia
