摘　　要：Rattan tea,made from the leaves of Ampelopsis grossedentata,may potentially perform multiple pharmacological roles,including anti-bacterial,anti-cancer,antioxidant,hepatoprotective and anti-hypertension functions.These beneficial functions of Rattan tea are strongly associated with the bioactivity of ampelopsin,a major flavonoid compound in Rattan tea.In this review,we summarize current research related to the bioactivity and pharmacological mechanisms of ampelopsin,which will provide a better reference for its potential application in the prevention of chronic diseases.©2012 Production and hosting by Elsevier B.V.on behalf of Beijing Academy of Food Sciences.
