Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides

After isolation, Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides get more than 200 species, most of which are β-glucans, and a few are α-glucans. The polysaccharide chain is composed of three monosaccharide chains and is a helical three-dimensional structure. The configuration, its three-dimensional configuration and DNA, RNA similar to the spiral layer is mainly fixed by hydrogen bonds, molecular weight from hundreds to hundreds of thousands, except for a small fraction of small molecule polysaccharides, most are insoluble in high concentrations of alcohol, Dissolved in hot water, most of them are found on the inner walls of Ganoderma lucidum cells. The polysaccharides of Ganoderma lucidum are mostly polysaccharides, that is, they contain a small amount of arabinose, xylose, fucose, rhamnose, galactose, and other monosaccharides, in addition to glucose. Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides are also widely and deeply studied all over the world.

 

  • Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides

Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides are one of the most effective ingredients in Ganoderma lucidum. Therefore, they are particularly valued by medical scientists and researchers. It is known that Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide has a wide range of pharmacological activities, can improve the body’s immunity, improve the body’s resistance to hypoxia, eliminate free radicals, inhibit tumors, resist radiation, improve the ability of the liver, bone marrow, and blood to synthesize DNA, RNA, and protein and prolong life. Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharide also has the characteristics of stimulating host non-specific resistance, immunospecific response, and inhibiting the physiological activity of the transplanted tumor. When the molecular weight of the polysaccharide is greater than 1×10 4 , it shows strong inhibition of tumor activity, and the strength of the polysaccharide is also related to the degree of bifurcation of the polysaccharide chain and the number of hydroxyl groups on the branched chain. It has significant effects on cardiovascular diseases, asthma, allergies, neurasthenia, and stomach heat. It also has the effects of reducing blood pressure, blood fat, blood stasis, improving blood circulation, and skin beauty.
