Isolation,Structural Characterization,and Hypoglycemic Activities In Vitro of Polysaccharides from Pleurotus eryngii

Pleurotus eryngii (PE) is an edible mushroom with high nutritional value. Pleurotus eryngii polysaccharides (PEPs) are one of the main active ingredients and manifest a great variety of biological activities. This study mainly focused on the chemical characterization and biological activities of PEPs, which were separated into two fractions (named WPS and P-1). WPS is mainly dominated by β-glycosidic bonds and contains α-glycosidic bonds, and P-1 only contains α-glycosidic bonds. The molecular weights of WPS and P-1 were 4.5 × 10⁵ Da and 2.2 × 10⁴ Da. The result of GC indicated that two the fractions were composed of rhamnose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, glucose, and galactose, with a ratio of 0.35:0.24:0.45:0.24:28.78:1.10 for WPS and 0.95:0.64:0.66:1.84:60.69:0.67 for P-1. The advanced structure studies indicated that the two fractions had no triple-helical structure, where WPS had a dense structure and P-1 had a loose structure. In addition, the antioxidant activity of WPS surpassed P-1, and the two fractions also exhibited a high hypoglycemic activity via inhibiting α-glycosidase activities and promoting the expression of PI3K-AKT signaling pathway based on in vitro assay and cell experiments.

Isolation and structural elucidation of a novel homogenous polysaccharide from Tricholoma matsutake

A crude polysaccharide possessing antitumour, radiation-resistant and anti-ageing attributes was extracted from Tricholoma matsutake by water extraction and alcohol precipitation. From this crude polysaccharide, a homogeneous polysaccharide, TMP-5II, was successfully purified by Sephacryl S-300 column chromatography. The average molecular weight (M_w) of TMP-5II was 15.76 kDa. Monosaccharide analysis indicated that the homogeneous polysaccharide contained four different residues: d-glucose, d-galactose, d-mannose and d-fucose. Attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy revealed characteristics typical of carbohydrate polymers and a peak typical of a β-type glycosidic bond. TMP-5II was selected for structural characterisation by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis. According to ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR and two-dimensional-NMR analysis, TMP-5II contains two kinds of linkages, β and α, at a ratio of 4:1. Preliminary results indicated that the polysaccharide had (1-4)-beta-pyran glucose as the main chain, and a branched chain in the O-6 location with fucose (1-2) mannose (1-3)-alpha-pyran galactose.

Structural analysis and anticomplement activity of a novel homogenous polysaccharide isolated from Juniperus tibetica kom

Abstract

Juniperus tibetica Kom., a common forest species in Tibet, has been traditionally used in Tibetan medicine to treat rheumatic arthritis. In order to investigate the effective substances of J. tibetuca, anticomplent assay-guided fractionation using gradient anion-exchange chromatography and gel permeation chromatography was applied to the crude polysaccharides of the twigs and leaves of J. tibetica and led to the isolation of a homogenous polysaccharide, YB-PS. It exhibited a robust anticomplement activity (CH₅₀: 461?±?10?μg/mL) through the classical pathway of complement system activation by targeting complement components C1q, C3, C4 and C5. The structure of YB-PS was studied by monosaccharide composition and methylation analyses, 1?D, 2?D NMR data and scanning electron microscope. The results indicated that YB-PS was composed of Ara, Gal, and Glc with a molar ratio of 5.8:3.0:1.2. Its backbone was comprised of 1,3-linked α-Araf, 1,3,5-linked α-Araf, 1,2,4-linked α-Galp, and 1,3-linked α-Glcp with terminal α-Araf, β-Galp and 1,4-linked β-Galp as branches. YB-PS was found to have a sheet structure with smooth surface. This study provided scientific foundation for YB-PS as a potential complement inhibitor to treat diseases involved with excessive activation of the complement system.

Structural elucidation and antioxidant activity of a novel heteroglycan from Tricholoma Lobayense

A novel heteroglycan TLH-G was successfully isolated from Tricholoma lobayense cultivated in south China. TLH-G was composed of five monosaccharides, namely, mannose, rhamnose, glucuronic acid, glucose and galactose, and consisted of →1)-β-D-Glcp-(6→ and →1)-α-D-Galp-(3→ motifs. TLH-G had excellent scavenging activities towards 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) radicals. Structure-activity relationship analysis demonstrated that glycosidic bond types, monosaccharide composition, and branching degree were more important for the antioxidant activity of polysaccharides from Tricholoma lobayense than other structural factors. All the above results showed that the growth environment played a crucial role in the structure and antioxidant activity of polysaccharides from Tricholoma lobayense.     

The Main Structural Unit Elucidation and Immunomodulatory Activity In Vitro of a Selenium-Enriched Polysaccharide Produced by Pleurotus ostreatus

In recent years, the structure of selenium-enriched polysaccharides and their application in immunomodulation have attracted much attention. In previous studies, we extracted and purified a novel selenium-enriched Pleurotus ostreatus polysaccharide called Se-POP-21, but its structure and immunomodulatory activity were still unclear. In this study, the main structural unit formula of Se-POP-21 was characterized by methylation analysis and an NMR experiment. The results showed that the backbone of Se-POP-21 was →[2,6)-α-D-Galp-(1→6)-α-D-Galp-(1]₄→2,4)-β-L-Arap-(1→[2,6)-α-D-Galp-(1→6)-α-D-Galp-(1]₄→, branched chain of β-D-Manp-(1→ and β-D-Manp-(1→4)-β-L-Arap-(1→ connected with →2,6)-α-D-Galp-(1→ and →2,4)-β-L-Arap-(1→,respectively, through the O-2 bond. In vitro cell experiments indicated that Se-POP-21 could significantly enhance the proliferation and phagocytosis of RAW264.7 cells, upregulate the expression of costimulatory molecules CD80/CD86, and promote RAW264.7 cells to secrete NO, ROS, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 by activating the NF-κB protein. The results of this study indicate that Se-POP-21 can effectively activate RAW264.7 cells. Thus, it has the potential to be used in immunomodulatory drugs or functional foods.     

Separation, purification and structure elucidation of a polysaccharide from root of Cudrania tricuspidata

A water-soluble polysaccharide (CPS-0) was obtained from the root of Cudrania tricuspidata (Carr.) Bur., by hot water extraction (70°C), deproteination using enzymolysis and Sevag method, precipitation with ethanol, and fractionation through DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography. The purity of CPS-0 was determined by HPLC and the structure was elucidated by monosaccharide composition analysis, methylation analysis, GC, GC-MS, NMR spectral (¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR, HMQC), UV, IR, and elemental analysis. The CPS-0 was found to contain glucose residues only. The average repeating unit is a decasaccharide having a backbone consisting of 1,4-linked α-D-glucopyranosyl residues to which the side chain consisting of terminal and 1,4-linked α-D-glucopyranosyl residues was attached at position 6 of the branching residues. __________ Translated from Chemical Journal of Chinese Universities, 2007, 28(6): 1088–1091 [译自: 高等学校化学学报]

Optimization of extraction process and characterization of water-soluble polysaccharide (Galactomannan) from Algerian biomass; Citrullus colocynthis seeds

In this work, the optimization of extraction of polysaccharides from Citrullus colocynthis curd polysaccharides (CCPs) is investigated by using the analysis of variance. For this aim, a chemical extraction method has been developed in order to be able to isolate CCPs at high level of purity. The extraction was performed by using boiling water at different extraction times (30, 60 and 120?min), extraction temperatures (50, 75 and 100°C), and a material ratio (30, 60 and 100?g/ml), for maximum polysaccharide extraction. The 3-D response surface plot and the contour plot derived from the mathematical models are used to determine the optimal conditions. The optimum extraction conditions are as follows: extraction temperature 100°C, extraction time 120?min and the ratio of water 30?ml/g. Under these conditions, the experimental final mass is 210.6?mg which is very close to the predicted value (209.46?mg) with a regression coefficient of 94.01%. In addition, the existence of the polysaccharide has been confirmed by the characterization of the galactomannan obtained from C. colocynthisis obtained by Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflection, IR-Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction.     

Cytoprotective effect of selenium polysaccharide from Pleurotus ostreatus against H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in PC12 cells

One main fraction of Selenium-enriched Pleurotus ostreatus (P. ostreatus) polysaccharide (Se-POP-1) was extracted and purified by DEAE-52 and sephadex G-100. Se-POP-1 was an approximate homogenous polysaccharide with an average molecular weight of 1.62 × 10⁴ Da, and mainly composed of glucose, mannose and galactose, with molar ratio of 5.30:1.55:2.14. The absorption peaks at 941 cm^?1 and 1048 cm^?1 in FT-IR analysis were ascribed as C-O-Se and Se=O bonds. Pr-treatment of Se-POP-1 (400 μg/mL) increased the cell survival of H₂O₂-stimulated PC12 cells and inhibited intrinsic apoptosis and oxidative stress in H₂O₂-stimulated PC12 cells via limiting DNA degradation and decreasing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. In addition, up-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2, down- regulation of pro-apoptotic protein Bax, cleaved caspase 3, and cytochrome c were also observed. Se-POP-1 presented an obvious effect to alleviate oxidative damage and apoptosis in PC12 cells induced by H₂O₂. Therefore, Se-POP-1 possessed potent antioxidant and biological activities with the ability to prevent oxidation via scavenging ROS and free radicals in cells. It could be developed as organic selenium dietary supplement and functional food.

Determination of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in plastics using organic-assisted alkaline extraction

An organic-assisted alkaline extraction method was developed for the determination of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) in plastics. The solubilization of polymer as a pre-step of the alkaline extraction provided good extraction efficiency of Cr(VI) from the sample. The optimization of the experimental conditions affecting the extraction and UV–vis spectrophotometric analysis was accomplished by evaluating the recovery rate of Cr(VI) through the analysis of Cr(VI) in in-house polymer reference materials (RMs). With the proposed method, most of the Cr(VI) in polymers was released within a short extraction time of 30 min and the Cr(III)-DPCO complex can be kept stable for 24 h. The heating for the extraction of the Cr(VI) was not necessary. The optimal pH of the final solution was fixed at 2.0. The proposed extraction method was applied successfully for the determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in spiked samples. The practical applicability of this new method was evaluated through the analysis of Cr(VI) in in-house polymer RMs. The good linearity was demonstrated at desired concentrations of the range 0–3.3 mg L⁻¹. The detection limits were quite low, varying from 0.0061 to 0.0285 mg L⁻¹. The recovery of Cr(VI) was between 97 and 106%, and the relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) was below 6%.
