Sea buckthorn () is an ecologically significant shrub that has been effectively employed to combat desertification. Recently, its economic potential has garnered substantial scientific interest. Sea buckthorn proanthocyanidins (SBPs), which are key antioxidant bioactive compounds found in sea buckthorn, exhibit remarkable free radical scavenging capacity and multi-target biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, vision protection, and cardiovascular protection effects. These attributes highlight the potential applications of SBPs in functional foods, nutritional supplements, and skincare products. This review summarizes the current state of research regarding extraction methods, structural characteristics, and associated biological activities of sea buckthorn proanthocyanidins, while also exploring future research directions to provide a reference for their further development and utilization.
沙棘是一种具有重要生态意义的灌木，已被有效地用于防治荒漠化。最近，其经济潜力引起了科学界的广泛关注。沙棘原花青素（SBPs）是沙棘中发现的关键抗氧化生物活性化合物，具有显著的自由基清除能力和多靶点生物活性，包括抗炎、抗癌、保护视力和心血管保护作用。这些特性突出了SBPs在功能性食品、营养补充剂和护肤品中的潜在应用。本文综述了沙棘原花青素的提取方法、结构特征和相关生物活性的研究现状，同时探讨了未来的研究方向，为其进一步开发利用提供参考。
