Abstract：Hedyotis hedyotidea(DC.)Merr.is a dried whole grass of the genus Rubiaceae.It has abundant resources and is widely distributed in Guangxi,Guangdong,Fujian,Taiwan,Guizhou,Yunnan and other places in China.Modern re-search shows that Hedyotis hedyotidea(DC.)Merr.contains terpenes,steroids,coumarins,lignans and other compounds.It has analgesic,antitumor,antibacterial,anti-inflammatory,anti-leukemia effects and other effects.At present,most of the pharmacological activity studies of Hedyotis hedyotidea(DC.)Merr.are mainly on terpenes,but there are few studies on re-lated pharmacological mechanisms.Therefore,this paper summarized the chemical composition,pharmacological effects and clinical application research of Hedyotis hedyotidea(DC.)Merr.,in order to provide a theoretical reference for the develop-ment and utilization of Hedyotis hedyotidea(DC.)Merr.in the future.
