Abstract
A new polysaccharide, named SP800201 with Mw of 2.17 × 105 g/mol, was isolated from Saposhnikoviae Radix. The monosaccharide composition of SP800201 mainly contained Gal, GalA, Ara, and Rha. SP800201 has a core structure containing GalA as the backbone and side chains consisting of GalA, Gal, Ara and Rha. Cell and zebrafish experiments were used to explore the immunomodulatory activity of SP800201. Results of vitro RAW264.7 cell experiments showed that SP800201 could significantly improve the proliferation and phagocytosis of macrophages, and promote the release of NO, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Results of vivo experiments in immunocompromised zebrafish showed that SP800201 could also significantly increase the density of immune cells, the number of macrophages, and reduce NO, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. The above results showed that the Saposhnikoviae Radix polysaccharide has certain immunomodulatory activity.
