Abstract

Black ginseng is the processed product of ginseng, and it has been found that the content and types of rare ginsenosides increased after processing. However, there is limited research on the ginsenoside differences between cultivated and forest ginseng before and after processing and among various plant parts. This study investigated the effects of processing on ginsenosides in different parts of cultivated and forest ginseng. After processing, the contents of Re, Rg1, S-Rg3, Rg5, R-Rh1, Rk1, Rk3, and F4 were significantly increased or decreased, the growth age of forest ginseng was not proportional to the content of ginsenosides, and the differences in ginsenoside content in ginseng from different cultivation methods were relatively small. Chemometric analysis identified processing biomarkers showing varying percentage changes in different parts. Network pharmacology predicted the EGFR/PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway as a potential key pathway for the anti-cancer effect of black ginseng.
