Abstract:
Objective To study the polysaccharides from dried rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong.Methods DEAE-Cellulose and gel-filtration chromatography were used to isolate and purify the polysaccharides,whose structures were characterized by chemical and spectral methods.Results Four homogeneous polysaccharides,named LCP-1,LCP-2,LCP-3,and LCP-4 were obtained from the water extract of L.chuanxiong.Four structures were investigated to be complicated polysaccharied fractions,with the molecular weights of 3.1?10~4,5.2?10~4,9.0?10~4,and 3.6?10~4,respectively,then estimated by GPC.Conclusion The four polysaccharides are obtained from this plant for the first time.
