Abstract
This review combines and clarifies data from studies which have examined the chemical composition and pharmacological properties of Polygala sibirica L. Detailed information on molecular diversity is presented, including selected structural formulas. These include: xanthones, triterpene saponins, new flavonol glycoside compounds, acetophenones, phenolcarboxylic acid derivatives, and other secondary metabolite groups. Data from studies examining the antioxidant, antibacterial, and other types of biological activity of extracts, their fractions, or individual components are also presented. The overall data confirm the possibility of using P. sibirica as an additional source of medicinal raw materials.
