Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have become one of the major global health crises of the last century, causing millions of deaths each year, and are the leading cause of disability worldwide. The pharmacological management of these conditions demands new alternative or complementary therapies due to the multiple long-term side effects experienced by patients. In this context, exopolysaccharides (EPSs) have emerged as a promising alternative due to their numerous functional properties and favorable biotechnological and medical applications for health. This review provides an overview of the properties of EPSs as bioactive agents in cardiovascular diseases, highlighting the cellular signaling mechanisms in their role as cardioprotective agents, with a primary focus on their roles as antioxidants, antihypertensives, and cholesterol regulators, and their regenerative effects on vascular epithelia, positioning EPSs as promising biomolecules for CVD prevention.
心血管疾病(CVDs)已成为上世纪全球主要的健康危机之一,每年导致数百万人死亡,并且是全球致残的主要原因。由于患者会经历多种长期副作用,这些疾病的药物治疗需要新的替代或补充疗法。在此背景下,胞外多糖(EPSs)因其众多功能特性以及在健康方面良好的生物技术和医学应用而成为一种有前景的替代物。本综述概述了EPSs作为心血管疾病生物活性剂的特性,强调了其作为心脏保护剂的细胞信号传导机制,主要关注其作为抗氧化剂、抗高血压药和胆固醇调节剂的作用,以及它们对血管上皮的再生作用,将EPSs定位为预防CVD的有前景的生物分子。
