Abstract

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is a kind of recurrent and chronic inflammatory disorders of the gut, and is extremely harmful to human and animals. To date, there is no drug to cure for IBD. As a kind of natural product, berberine has an array of physiological functions as well as special pharmacological properties, and has a specific IBD therapeutic potential because of its therapeutic value for IBD. In this review, the species and properties of berberine were presented, and the basic characteristics of IBD was analyzed, finally the regulation mechanisms of berberine on IBD was discussed. This review provided some scientific evidences for the application of berberine in the practice.
