Glyceroglycolipids are major metabolites of marine algae and have a wide range of applications in medicine, cosmetics, and chemistry research fields. They are located on the cell surface membranes. Together with glycoproteins and glycosaminoglycans, known as the glycocalyx, they play critical roles in multiple cellular functions and signal transduction and have several biological properties such as anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, anti-viral activity, and anti-tumor immunity. This article focused on the sources and pharmacological effects of glyceroglycolipids, which are naturally present in various marine algae, including planktonic algae and benthic algae, with the aim to highlight the promising potential of glyceroglycolipids in clinical treatment.
甘油糖脂是海藻的主要代谢产物，在医学、化妆品和化学研究领域有广泛应用。它们位于细胞表面膜上。与糖蛋白和糖胺聚糖一起被称为糖萼，在多种细胞功能和信号转导中起关键作用，并具有多种生物学特性，如抗氧化和抗炎特性、抗病毒活性以及抗肿瘤免疫。本文重点关注甘油糖脂的来源和药理作用，其天然存在于各种海藻中，包括浮游藻类和底栖藻类，目的是突出甘油糖脂在临床治疗中的潜在前景。
