Polysaccharides, one of the active ingredients in herbal medicine, are proved to enhance innate immunity against infections. The aim of this study is to explore the immunoregulatory ability of polysaccharides from Rhynchosia minima root in vitro and in vivo.
Polysaccharide fractions of R. minima
Box-Behnken design (BBD), one of the most common response surface methodology (RSM) methods, was used to optimize the experimental conditions for ultrasound-assisted extraction of polysaccharides from Rhynchosia minima root (PRM). The antioxidant abilities and anticancer activity of purified
Three novel acidic polysaccharides termed PRM1, PRM3 and PRM5 were purified from Rhynchosia minima root using DEAE-52 cellulose and sephadex G-150 column chromatography. Their structures were characterized by ultraviolet (UV) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry, gel permeation
