英文摘要	Ephedrais one of the largest genera of the Ephedraceae family, which is distributed in arid and semiarid regions of the world. In the traditional medicine from several countries some species from the genus are commonly used to treat asthma, cold, flu, chills, fever, headache, nasal congestion, and cough. The chemical constituents ofEphedraspecies have been of research interest for decades due to their contents of ephedrine-type alkaloids and its pharmacological properties. Other chemical constituents such as phenolic and amino acid derivatives also have resulted attractive and have provided evidence-based supporting of the ethnomedical uses of theEphedraspecies. In recent years, research has been expanded to explore the endophytic fungal diversity associated toEphedraspecies, as well as, the chemical constituents derived from these fungi and their pharmacological bioprospecting. Two additional aspects that illustrate the chemical diversity ofEphedragenus are the chemotaxonomy approaches and the use of ephedrine-type alkaloids as building blocks in organic synthesis. AmericanEphedraspecies, especially those that exist in Mexico, are considered to lack ephedrine type alkaloids. In this sense, the phytochemical study of MexicanEphedraspecies is a promising area of research to corroborate their ephedrine-type alkaloids content and, in turn, discover new chemical compounds with potential biological activity. Therefore, the present review represents a key compilation of all the relevant information for theEphedragenus, in particular the American species, the species distribution, their ecological interactions, its ethnobotany, its phytochemistry and their pharmacological activities and toxicities, in order to promote clear directions for future research.
