摘要：
The dried fruit of Forsythia suspensa (Oleaceae), also known as Forsythia, is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb known for its heat-clearing and detoxifying properties. It is used to disperse nodules, reduce swelling, remove toxins, clear heat, and alleviate wind-heat syndromes. It also has hepatoprotective, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, anticancer, antioxidant, anti-aging, and anti-obesity effects, as well as potential therapeutic effects on Alzheimer’s disease and diabetic nephropathy. It is used to treat scrofula, mastitis, wind-heat common cold, and other ailments. The review summarizes the chemical constituents and pharmacological effects of F. suspensa, aiming to provide a scientific foundation for its future development, research, and clinical utilization.
