卡拉胶的生物活性及分子修饰研究进展

Research Progress on Biological Activity and Chemical Modification of Carrageenan

卡拉胶作为一种结构独特的硫酸多糖,具有多种生物活性,但因分子量过大,使其在生物医药领域的应用受到限制。文章简要介绍了近年来有关卡拉胶抗病毒、抗肿瘤、抗凝血等生物活性的研究,进一步介绍了卡拉胶分子修饰及其衍生物生物活性的研究进展。

Carrageenan,as a family of sulfated polysaccharides with unique structure,had many kinds of biological activity.However,its application in biomedicine field was limited because of large molecular weight.Research on the biological activity of carrageenan in antivirus,antitumor and anticoagulant were synopsis introduced,emphasizing to introduce the research progress on the chemical modification and derivatives of carrageenan.
