title: [Advance in studies on pharmacological effects of licochalcone A].
abstract: Licochalcone A (LCA), as a major flavonoid in Glycyrrhiza inflate, has attracted wide attention in recent years. Studies showed that LCA has multiple pharmacological effects such as anti-tumour, anti-inflammation, anti-bacteria and anti-parasite.
