Abstract:
Hypolipidemic polysaccharides have notable activity and safety with a range of diverse sources. In this paper, the classification of hypolipidemic polysaccharides was carried out into polysaccharide sulfate, glycosaminoglycan, homopolysaccharide and heteropolysaccharide. The hypolipidemic activity mechanism and structure-activity relationship hypothesis of those polysaccharides in recent years were briefly reviewed therefore to provide references for the study and product development of polysaccharides.
