Abstract:
Objective To study the structure and immunomodulatory activity of homogeneous polysaccharides isolated from Fangfeng (Saposhnikoviae Radix). Methods Polysaccharide SP800203 was isolated from Saposhnikoviae Radix by several chromatographic techniques, such as DEAE-Cellulose and Sephadex G-75. The relative molecular weight, monosaccharide composition, oligosaccharide fragments, sugar residue types and glucosidic bond linkage modes were characterized with ESI-MSn, GC-MS, and NMR. Cell and zebrafish experiments were used to explore the immunomodulatory activity of polysaccharide SP800203. Results Polysaccharide SP800203 was isolated from Saposhnikoviae Radix, with a glucuronic acid content of 75.73%, a molecular weight of 7.14×104, composed of rhamnose (Rha), galactose (Gal), arabinose (Ara), and galacturonic acid (GalA), the molar ratio of monosaccharides was 2.8:6.7:6:84.5. The main chain was polymerized by GalA, and the two branch chains were separately polymerized by Ara, GalA, Gal, Rha and Ara, GalA, Gal, which were connected to the backbone by β and α glycosidic bonds, respectively. Polysaccharide SP800203 could significantly promote the release of NO, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and increase the density of immune cells and the number of macrophages. Conclusion Polysaccharide SP800203 is a new homogeneous polysaccharide isolated from Saposhnikoviae Radix, which shows good immunomodulatory activity. The results of the study lay a foundation for elucidating the mechanism of immune regulation of Saposhnikoviae Radix, and provide a scientific basis for the clinical application and further research of Saposhnikoviae Radix. © 2024 Editorial Office of Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs.
