RESUMEN
Litchi chinensis es un árbol frutal, comúnmente, conocido como litche o lychee, de la familia Sapindaceae y originario del sur
de China. Actualmente se cultiva en más de 20 países con áreas tropicales y subtropicales. El fruto tiene un alto valor nutritivo y
comercial por su agradable sabor, su jugoso arilo y un atractivo color rojo intenso. En la antigüedad diversas culturas lo utilizaron
como una medicina tradicional para el tratamiento de diferentes enfermedades, entre ellas la tos, las úlceras, la diabetes, la obesidad,
los dolores epigástricos y los neurálgicos. En la literatura se reporta al litchi y sus diferentes partes (hojas, flores, pulpa, semilla y
pericarpio) con una alta cantidad de compuestos bioactivos, de una fuerte actividad biológica por ser antioxidante, antimicrobiano,
antiviral, antidiabético, anticanceroso, antiobesidad, antiinflamatorio, hepatoprotector y analgésico. En esta revisión se describen
sus características botánicas, su distribución, su composición química con énfasis en los compuestos bioactivos que contiene y su
actividad biológica, así como usos, aplicaciones y perspectivas de interés para la industria alimentaria, farmacéutica y cosmética
con la finalidad de elaborar productos novedosos y útiles para el humano.
