摘要
The chemical structure, chain conformation, and immuno-modulatory activity of polysaccharide from mycelium Cordyceps sinensis fungus UM01 were investigated. The molecular weights and the intrinsic viscosity of purified polysaccharide (UM01-S4) were determined as 22,559 Da and 5.09 mL/g, respectively. Using the polymer solution theory, UM01-S4 has a sphere-like conformation in aqueous NaCl at 35 degrees C. The chemical structure of UM01-S4 contains an alpha-(1 -> 2)-Manp core. The side chains were composed of beta-(1 -> 2)-Galf, beta-(1 -> 4)-Glcp, alpha-GalpA, and alpha-Manp units, which attached to the mannan core at the O-6 position. The immuno-modulatory assays showed that UM01-S4 exhibited good activities, including macrophages proliferation, phagocytosis, and release of NO and cytokines. The mechanism underlying the macrophage regulation of UM01-S4 might be related to the activation of the MAPK and NF-kappa B signalling pathways. Thus, mycelium of C. sinensis UM01 could be used as a natural immune-stimulating agent in functional food areas and pharmaceutical industries. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
