Abstract
Phellodendron (PN) species, traditionally used in Chinese medicine for centuries, hold promise as a potential treatment for osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA) due to their bioactive compounds. The bioactive compounds, including berberine and palmatine, exhibit anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and bone-protective properties, contributing to their potential therapeutic benefits in promoting bone health and preventing bone loss. However, challenges such as the need for standardized preparation and dosing, limited clinical studies, and potential interactions with other medications hinder their clinical use. Nonetheless, the rich history of PN species in Chinese medicine provides a promising foundation for future investigation into their potential as alternative treatments for OP and OA. Further research is needed to fully understand the underlying mechanisms of action and explore the clinical implications of PN for bone health.
