Abstract:Cordycepin is a nucleoside antibiotic isolated from Cordyceps militaris, which has a variety of biological activities, such as antibacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immune regulation, anti-tumor, hypoglycemic and anti-aging, etc. Cordycepin has a certain therapeutic effect on lung, liver, kidney, stomach and other diseases. It can also be used as cosmetics, health products and animal husbandry. With the deepening of research, the pharmacological effect of cordycepin has been gradually explored, and its mechanism has become increasingly clear. In this paper, we summarize the research and application of cordycepin in recent years, which lays a foundation for further study of cordycepin.
