Research progress on Rodgersia and predictive analysis on its quality markers

Rodgersia is a traditional Chinese medicine that contains a variety of chemical constituents, including flavonoids, terpenoids, phenylpropanoids, gallic acid derivatives, steroids, volatile oils, and tannins, with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, antibacterial, antivirus, hepatoprotective, and other properties. In this paper, the main chemical constituents and pharmacological effects of Rodgersia are summarized. On this basis, the quality markers of this genus were predicted based on chemical composition, traditional medicinal properties, traditional efficacy, and measurable components. This review provides the basis for in-depth research, utilization, and quality control of Rodgersia.
