Abstract
The genus Saururus, belonging to Saururaceae, contains two species, S. cernuus L. and S. chinensis (Lour) Baill. with common utilization in traditional medicine from Asia to North America for the treatment of edema, beriberi, jaundice, leucorrhea, urinary tract infections, hypertension, hepatitis diseases, and tumors. An extensive review of literature was made on traditional uses, phytochemistry, and ethnopharmacology of Saururus using ethno-botanical books, published articles, and electronic databases. The 147 of chemical constituents have been isolated and identified from S. cernuus and S. chinensis, and lignans, flavonoids, alkaloids, anthraquinones, saponins, and phenols are the major constituents. Various pharmacological investigations in many in vitro and in vivo models have revealed the potential of the genus Saururus with anti-inflammatory, antitumor, anti-oxidant, hepatoprotective, antimelanogenic, lipid-lowering, and bone protective activities, supporting the rationale behind numerous of its traditional uses. Due to the noteworthy pharmacological properties, Saururus can be a better option for new drug discovery. Data regarding many aspects of this plant such as toxicology, pharmacokinetics, quality-control measures, and the clinical value of the active compounds is still limited which call for additional studies.

Abstract
Three biogenetically related ent-sauchinone-type lignans (1-3), four 8-O-4'-type neolignans (4-7), a diaryldimethylbutane lignan (8), and a cyclic carbonate (9), along with 12 known compounds, have been isolated from a methanol extract of the aerial parts of Saururus chinensis. The structures of the new compounds (1-9) were determined by analysis of their 1D and 2D NMR spectra, HRESIMS, and ECD data. A putative biosynthetic pathway for the three ent-sauchinone-type lignans (1-3) was postulated. Compounds 1, 7, and 10 showed inhibitory effects on LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 cells with IC50 values of 5.6, 8.6, and 9.2 μM, respectively.

Abstract
A rapid and simple analytical method was established for the determination of four amides (N-p-trans-coumaroyltyramine, aristolactam AII, sauristolactam and aristolactam BII) in Saururus chinensis by matrix solid phase dispersion (MSPD) and high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). In the optimized MSPD, 0.2 g S. chinensis powder was blended with 0.4 g silica gel, and 5 mL methanol was selected as elution solvent. The MSPD extraction achieved higher extraction recovery of four amides, and required less sample, solvent and preparation time, comparing with the conventional methods (Soxhlet and ultrasonic extraction). The assay was performed on a TSK gel ODS-100Z column (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 5 μm) at 30 °C. Acetonitrile and 0.4% acetic acid aqueous solution was used as mobile phase by gradient elution at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was 280 nm. All the analytes showed good linear regression (R2 ≥ 0.9998) within the concentration ranges. The validated method showed good precision and stability with relative standard deviations (RSDs) ≤ 3.18%. The recoveries were in the range of 96.57–99.65%, with RSDs less than 2.74%.
