Research progress on material basis and mechanism of Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma enhancing immunity

The immune function of human body is an important physiological function to maintain health. Impaired or poor immune system function have a serious impact on human health. As a kind of tonic traditional Chinese medicine, gancao (Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) has the function of tonifying spleen and replenishing qi and enhancing the immune function of human body, which shows unique advantages and development potential in the development of immunopotentiators. In this paper, through the collection and collation of the recent domestic and foreign literatures on the immune enhancement of G. uralensis, the material basis of the function to enhance immunity of G. uralensis was elaborated from the structural characteristics and classification of compounds and pharmacological effects of G. uralensis. Based on the effective components of G. uralensis, the molecular mechanisms were summarized, expected to provide new ideas for the research and development of immune enhancing drugs, and provide reference for further research and discussion of the immune effect of G. uralensis. The molecular mechanisms include promoting the proliferation of immune cells and improving the biological activity, influencing the levels of cytokines and antibodies in the body, and regulating the expression of related enzymes.
