Ligustilide (LIG) is a phthalide compound found in Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels and Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort, which has a wide range of pharmacological activities in clinical practice, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, anti-tumor, neuroprotective, and vascular protective effects. However, LIG has poor stability and is easily affected by factors such as temperature, light, oxygen, pH value, and solvent type, leading to conformational changes. In addition, the low water solubility and low bioavailability of LIG limit its development and application in new drugs. The article reviews the research progress on natural sources, structural characteristics and structural modifications, degradation and transformation mechanisms, main degradation influencing factors, stabilization methods and bioactivity of LIG in recent years, in order to provide reference for the further development and applications of LIG.
