Abstract
Lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Due to its unclear etiology, the treatment is slow and complicated. Rubia cordifolia is a drug with a long history, with the effects of cooling blood and removing blood stasis, promoting blood circulation, and dredging meridians. Modern research suggests that the components of Rubia cordifolia have the effects of immune regulation, anti-inflammation, liver protection, and antioxidation. It may be a potential drug for the treatment of lichen planus. However, the specific mechanism of Rubia cordifolia in the treatment of this disease is still under study. This article reviews the mechanism of Rubia cordifolia in the treatment of lichen planus, in order to provide references for the clinical application of the drug.
