Summary:OBJECTIVE: To review the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of action of Astragaloside IV in Huangqi (Radix Astragali Mongolici). METHODS: Aticles focusing on Astragaloside IV in English and Chinese in databases were collected and reviewed in order to summarize the latest ex- traction separation, pharmacokinetics, and the pharmacological effects of astrageloside IV. RESULTS: Protective effects of Astrageloside IV on the cardiovascular system, immune, digestive, ner- vous system were identified, and the action mecha- nisms were associated with regulation of the calci- um balance, anti-oxydant, antiapoptosis, antivirus, and so on. CONCLUSION: Astrageloside IV has broad applica- tion prospects, especially in cardiovascular diseas- es, digestive diseases, cancer and other modern high incidence, high-risk diseases, and could be de- veloped as a medicine.
