“…EG and MG, as monosaccharide derivatives isolated from N. sativa seeds, showed good potential to regulate and enhance the immune system. Huang found that monosaccharide derivative GPP could activate RAW264.7 cells by increasing phagocytosis, NO production and mRNA expression of iNOS and TNF-α ( 61 , 62 ). Although the mechanism of immune enhancement of GPP was not studied in vitro , GPP could significantly improve the activity of natural killer (NK) cells and macrophage phagocytosis in mice after oral administration of 0, 3.6, 120, and 360 mg/kg body weight (mg/kg BW) for 30 days.…”

Nigella sativa is a valuable herb for its functional compositions in both food and medication. N. sativa seeds can enhance immunity, anti-inflammation and analgesia and hypoglycemia, but most of the related researches are related to volatile oil and extracts, and the activity and mechanism of compounds is not clear. In this study, Ethyl-α-D-galactopyranoside (EG), Methyl-α-D-glucoside (MG), 3-O-[β-D-xylopyranose-(1 → 3)-α-L-rhamnose-(1 → 2)-α-L-arabinose]-28-O-[α-L-rhamnose-(1 → 4)-β-D-glucopyranose-L-(1 → 6)-β-D-glucopyranose]-hederagenin (HXRARG) and 3-O-[β-D-xylopyranose-(1 → 3)-α-L-rhamnose-(1 → 2)-α-L-arabinose]-hederagenin (HXRA) were isolated and identified from N. sativa seeds. In addition, four compounds could activate NF-κB pathway by promoting the expression of phosphorylation of P65 and IκBα, promoting the phosphorylation of JNK, Erk and P38 to activate MAPK signaling pathway, enhancing the proliferation and phagocytic activity of RAW264.7 cells, and promoting the release of NO, TNF-α and IL-6 on RAW264.7 cell in vitro. The results showed that N. sativa can be used as dietary supplement to enhance immune.

“…Edible mushrooms are collected and/or cultivated worldwide and considered to be an important part of a healthy human diet (2,3). In recent years, the immune modulatory effect of edible mushrooms polysaccharides has attracted much attention (4). Schizophyllum commune polysaccharides can increase RAW264.7 cell activity and promote the production of large amounts of NO by cells to exert immune effects (5).…”

Proteomics and intestinal flora were used to determine the mechanism of immune modulatory effects of Flammulina velutipes polysaccharide on immunosuppressed mice. The results showed that compared with the model group, F. velutipes polysaccharide could increase thymus and spleen indices and improve thymus tissue structure in mice; IL-2 and IL-4 contents were significantly increased and IL-6 and TNF-α contents were significantly decreased; serum acid phosphatase (ACP), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) activities were increased (P < 0.05); in the liver, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities were increased (P < 0.001), while malondialdehyde (MDA) content was decreased (P < 0.001). Proteomics discovered that F. velutipes polysaccharides may exert immune modulatory effects by participating in signaling pathways such as immune diseases, transport and catabolism, phagosomes and influenza A, regulating the immune-related proteins Transferrin receptor protein 1 (TFRC) and Radical S-adenosyl methionine domain-containing protein 2 (RSAD2), etc. Gut microbial studies showed that F. velutipes polysaccharides could increase the abundance of intestinal flora and improve the flora structure. Compared to the model group, the content of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and the relative abundance of SCFA-producers Bacteroides and Alloprevotella were increased in the F. velutipes polysaccharide administration group, while Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and f_Lachnospiraceae_Unclassified decreased in relative abundance. Thus, F. velutipes polysaccharide may play an immunomodulatory role by regulating the intestinal environment and improving the balance of flora.

“…In clinic, APTT, PT, and TT were often used as indexes to evaluate the coagulation function of the body. As an endogenous coagulation pathway, APTT was related to coagulation factors VIII, IX, XI, and prekallikrein, while PT, an exogenous coagulation pathway, was related to coagulation factors I, V, VII, and X. TT mainly reflected the degree of conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin (Xie et al, 2017;Yin et al, 2021). It could be seen that the anticoagulant activity of PPp-W was related to endogenous coagulation pathway and thrombin-mediated fibrin formation.…”

Structural Characterization and Anticoagulant Activity of a 3-O-Methylated Heteroglycan From Fruiting Bodies of Pleurotus placentodes

Pleurotus placentodes, a fungus, belongs to the Pleurotaceae family. The aim of the present study was to characterize the structure of a novel polysaccharide from fruiting bodies of P. placentodes (PPp-W) and evaluate its anticoagulant activity in vitro. The high-performance liquid chromatography and GC–MS analysis indicated that PPp-W with a molecular weight of 27.4 kDa was mainly composed of mannose (17.56%), glucose (6.37%), galactose (44.89%), and fucose (1.22%) with a certain amount of 3-O-methyled galactose. SEM, XRD, and AFM combined with Congo red test revealed that PPp-W was an irregular curly sheet with triple-helix conformation. The FT-IR, methylation, and nuclear magnetic resonance analysis indicated that PPp-W contained→6)-α-D-Galp-(1→, →6)-3-O-Me-α-D-Galp-(1→and →2, 6)-α-D-Galp-(1→ as main chain, partially substituted at O-2 and O-6 by non-reducing ends of β-D-Manp-(1→ and β-L-Fucp-(1→ with a small amount of α-1,3-linked-Glcp in backbone. PPp-W could significantly prolong APTT (12.9 ± 0.42 s, p < 0.001) and thrombin time (39.9 ± 0.28 s, p < 0.01) compared with the control group (11.45 ± 0.071 s and 38.05 ± 0.21 s), which showed that PPp-W had anticoagulant activity. These studies suggested that PPp-W was a 3-O-methylated heteroglycan and might be suitable for functional foods and natural drugs as an anticoagulant ingredient, which provided a basis for the application of polysaccharides from P. placentodes.
