“…The XRD pattern of AINPs is shown in Fig. 2, which conrms the absence of diffraction peaks i.e., amorphous nature, except for the observed broad band at 2q values (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30). Generally, the amorphous nature of the particles is non-toxic to living organisms and hence, amorphous herbal nanoparticles enhance the biocompatibility for clinical applications.…”

“…The hemostatic effect is one of the main pharmacologic effects of B. striata. Bensky and colleagues showed that when the dried powder of B. striata tubers was mixed with water, it could achieve a good hemostatic effect after it was spread onto a wound (Venkatraja et al, 2012). Interestingly, recent studies have shown that the water-soluble portion of B. striata has an active role in hemostasis, and its function is believed to be related to adenosine diphosphate, which promotes and accelerates platelet aggregation (Lu et al, 2005; Gachet, 2006).…”

Bletilla striata is a plant from the Orchidaceae family that has been employed as a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for thousands of years in China. Here, we briefly review the published studies of the last 30 years that were related to chemical constituents, pharmacologic activities, and clinical applications of B. striata. Approximately 158 compounds have been extracted from B. striata tubers with clarified molecular structures that were classified as glucosides, bibenzyls, phenanthrenes, quinones, biphenanthrenes, dihydrophenanthrenes, anthocyanins, steroids, triterpenoids, and phenolic acids. These chemicals support the pharmacological properties of hemostasis and wound healing, and also exhibit anti-oxidation, anti-cancer, anti-viral, and anti-bacterial activities. Additionally, various clinical trials conducted on B. striata have demonstrated its marked activities as an embolizing and mucosa-protective agent, and its application for use in novel biomaterials, quality control, and toxicology. It also has been widely used as a constituent of many preparations in TCM formulations, but because there are insufficient studies on its clinical properties, its efficacy and safety cannot be established from a scientific point of view. We hope that this review will provide reference for further research and development of this unique plant.

BackgroundFunctional polysaccharides can be derived from plants (including herbs), animals and microorganisms. They have been widely used in a broad of biomedical applications, such as immunoregulatory agents or drug delivery vehicles. In the past few years, increasing studies have started to develop natural polysaccharides-based biomaterials for various applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.Main bodyWe discuss in this article the emerging applications of natural polysaccharides—particularly those derived from Chinese medicine—for wound healing. First, we introduce natural polysaccharides of three natural sources and their biological activities. Then, we focus on certain natural polysaccharides with growth factor-binding affinities and their inspired polymeric tools, with an emphasis on how these polysaccharides could possibly benefit wound healing. Finally, we report the latest progress in the discovery of polysaccharides from Chinese medicinal herbs with identified activities favouring tissue repair.ConclusionNatural polysaccharides with clearly elucidated compositions/structures, identified cellular activities, as well as desirable physical properties have shown the potential to serve as therapeutic tools for tissue regeneration.
