Abstract：Coronary heart disease is a cardiovascular disease caused by atherosclerotic lesions in the coronary arteries,leading to vessel stenosis or occlusion,and subsequently resulting in myocardial ischemia,hypoxia or necrosis.It is also one of the most common cardiovascular diseases in clinical practice.In recent years,researches on the treatment of coronary heart disease with Codonopsis pilosula have gradually increased,demonstrating its unique advantages.Codonopsis pilosula exerts its effects through multiple mechanisms,including regulating the immune system,regulating lipid and blood pressure levels,improving left ventricular function,and inhibiting platelet aggregation.This article reviews the mechanisms of Codonopsis pilosula and its extracts in the treatment of coronary heart disease,providing a reference for the clinical development and application of Codonopsis pilosula as an alternative therapy for coronary heart disease.
