Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common chronic degenerative joint disease in clinical practice with a high prevalence, especially in the elderly. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) believes that OA belongs to the category of “Bi syndrome” and the “bone Bi syndrome”. The etiology and pathogenesis lie in the deficiency of the liver and kidney, the deficiency of Qi and blood, and external exposure to wind, cold, and dampness. Epimedium is a yang-reinforcing herb in TCM, which can tonify the liver and kidney, strengthen muscles and bones, dispel wind, cold and dampness, and can treat both the symptoms and the root cause of “bone Bi syndrome”. In addition, Epimedium contains a large number of ingredients. Through modern science and technology, more than 270 compounds have been found in Epimedium, among which flavonoids are the main active ingredients. Therefore, our study will review the effects and mechanisms of genus Epimedium in treating OA from two aspects: (1) Introduction of Epimedium and its main active ingredients; (2) Effects of Epimedium and its active ingredients in treating OA and relevant signaling pathways, in order to provide more ideas for OA treatment. |
