Key bioactive compounds include senkyunolide A, ligustilide, tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), and ligusticum CX polysaccharides (LCP). CX demonstrates significant pharmacological effects in treating CCVDs, such as atherosclerosis (AS), myocardial and cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, and hypertension. Its therapeutic mechanisms include antiplatelet activity, endothelial cell protection, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic properties. CX can be administered alone or in combination with other traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) or chemical drugs, showing efficacy in cardiovascular, nervous system, digestive system disorders, as well as analgesia and anticancer activities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>CX holds substantial clinical value for treating multi-system diseases, with extensive evidence supporting its use in CCVDs.
