Abstract

In recent years, attention has increasingly focused on herbal medicines and their bioactive components attributed to their multi-target pharmacological activity and low side effects. Oridonin is a natural diterpenoid extracted from the traditional Chinese herb and is one of the main active components of Rabdosia rubescens. Modern pharmacological studies have shown that oridonin has anti-tumor, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, cardiovascular protective, immunomodulatory, and other effects. Based on the published literature in recent years, we outline the pharmacological activities of oridonin, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the design and development of new oridonin-based drugs, as well as to facilitate the process of oridonin for clinical use.
