Abstract:
:In the present study, crude polysaccharides were extracted from Gelidium pacificum Okamura, and further purified to obtain the sulfated polysaccharide with molecular weight of 28,807 Da. Its monosaccharide composition mainly consisted of xylose (7.1%), galactose (59.7%) and galacturonic acid (19.76%). And the sulfate ester content of the sulfated polysaccharide was estimated as 8.8%. Structure analysis showed that the sulfated polysaccharide comprised of 1,4-linked-α-D-Galp3S, 1,2-linked-α-D-Xylp and 1,3-linked-β-D-GalpA residues, respectively. Its anti-inflammatory effects were investigated in LPS-stimulated human monocytic (THP-1) cells. The sulfated polysaccharide at a concentration of 5 μg/mL fully protected the THP-1 cells against LPS-stimulated cytotoxicity. Furthermore, the addition of sulfated polysaccharide resulted in a significant reduction of NO production in LPS-treated cells, and this effect appeared to be dose-related. The sulfated polysaccharide (5 μg/mL) significantly suppressed the mRNA and protein expression of toll-like receptor-4 (TLR-4), myeloid differentiation factor (MyD88) and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-6 (TRAF-6) in LPS-stimulated THP-1 cells. These results showed the sulfated polysaccharide not only provided a good protection against LPS-induced cell toxicity, but also exerted an anti-inflammatory effect via the TLR4 signaling pathway.
