Abstract: Peony seed oil is a kind of golden-colored oil extracted from peony seed by different extraction processes. Studies have shown that the main components of peony seed oil include fatty acids, unsaponifiables and trace elements. Peony seed oil has many pharmacological functions such as antioxidant, hepatoprotective, hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects. Through the systematic review of the relevant literatures on peony seed oil, the research progress of the chemical components and pharmacological activities of peony seed oil was expounded, in hoping to provide theoretical reference for the further study of peony seed oil.

Key words: peony seed oil, chemical components, pharmacological activities
