O. dillenii is consumed as a local delicacy and has no other current use. To understand the nutritional value of O. dillenii in human health and its application in the food, cosmetic, and drug industries, this review summarizes information on the chemical compounds (pure \u03b1-pyrone compounds, flavonoids, phenolic acids, polysaccharides, minerals, fatty acids, and betalains) and biological properties (anti-diabetic, anti-hyperglycemic, antihyperlipidemic, anti-atherosclerotic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antimicrobial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-spermatogenic, anticancer, antilarval, anti-angiogenic, and antioxidant) of extracts from each part of the plant (fruit juice, fruit peel, cladode, and seeds) (aqueous, ethanolic, and methanolic), and seed oil. In addition, data related to the recent applications of O. dillenii in various industries (e.g., edible coatings, food supplements, cosmetics, nanoparticles, and wastewater treatment) are provided.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nu15132962","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,30]],"date-time":"2023-06-30T01:02:41Z","timestamp":1688086961000},"page":"2962","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Recent Research on Different Parts and Extracts of Opuntia dillenii and Its Bioactive Components, Functional Properties, and Applications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"given":"Wen-Chien","family":"Lu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Beverage Management, Chung-Jen Junior College of Nursing, Health Sciences and Management, Chia-Yi City 60077, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chien-Shan","family":"Chiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Taichung Veterans General Hospital, Taichung City 40705, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yung-Jia","family":"Chan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Biotechnology and Bioresources, Da-Yeh University, Changhua 51591, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amanda","family":"Mulio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Providence University, Taichung City 43301, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9686-8434","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Po-Hsien","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Food and Nutrition, Providence University, Taichung City 43301, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Bastola, T., Poudel, M., Lamichhane, S., Sharma, G., and Poudel, P.
