Research progress of anti-fatigue mechanism of active components of ginseng
Ginseng is not only a precious traditional Chinese medicinal herb in China,but also a great food therapy and health product,with various anti fatigue effects.The main active ingredients of ginseng in anti fatigue include ginseng polysaccharides,oligopeptides,and saponins,which may regulate carbohydrate metabolism,activate phosphatidylinositol 3-hydroxykinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR)and other signaling pathways enhance the energy supply efficiency of skeletal muscle mitochondria and accelerate the clearance of free radicals,thereby producing an anti fatigue efect.Summarize the anti fatigue pharmacological mechanisms of ginseng polysaccharides,proteins,and ginsenosides,aiming to provide a basis for the development and application of ginseng in various anti fatigue functional products.
