Edematous responses were induced in the limbs of Sprague-Dawley rats by intravenous, intraperitoneal, or intra-articular injections of group-specific polysaccharide (PS) isolated from the cell walls of group A streptococci. After intravenous injection of the edema-producing PS, vascular permeability
BACKGROUND
Red and brown algae sulfated polysaccharides (SPs) have been widely investigated as antinociceptive and/or anti-inflammatory agents; however, no description of these biological properties concerning green algae SPs have been reported. Caulerpa curpressoides (Chlorophyta) presents three
A protein-containing polysaccharide, LCP, showing strong antioxidant activity from the rhizome of Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort was fractionated and purified. Its physicochemical properties were characterised by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), UV and
OBJECTIVE
To study the immune activity of polysaccharide extracted from root of Salvia miltiorrhiza.
METHODS
Investigated the effects of polysaccharide extracted from root of Salvia miltiorrhiza on lymphocyte proliferation response of mouse induced by LPS (the lipopolysaccharide LPS), phagocytosis
Microwave-assisted extraction was employed for the isolation of polysaccharides from Posidonia oceanica (PPO). The extracting parameters were optimized adopting response surface methodology. The highest polysaccharide yield (2.55 ± 0.09%), which is in concordance with the predicted value (2.76%),
Polyporus umbellatus is a medicinal fungus, has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands years for treatment of edema, scanty urine, vaginal discharge, jaundice and diarrhea. The structure of a soluble polysaccharide (named PUP80S1), purified from the sclerotia of Polyporus umbellatus
Capsular polysaccharide (CP) of Pasteurella haemolytica (type A1) was first deposited by fiberoptic bronchoscopy into the lungs of sheep to examine lesions and changes in bronchoalveolar lavage cell populations and, later, was mixed with pulmonary surfactant to investigate alterations in physical
A hemorrhage into gut-associated lymphoid tissue developed as early as 3 min after the intravenous injection of group A streptococcal peptidoglycan-polysaccharide polymers into rats. Extravasated erythrocytes were specifically located in the lamina propria and organized lymphoid follicles of the
OBJECTIVE
To explore the effect of bacilli Galmette-Gurin (BCG)-polysaccharide nuceic acid on atopic dermatitis in mice and its mechanism.
METHODS
Forty NC/Nga mice were selected and randomly divided into Group A (model group), Group B (dexamethasone treatment group), Group C (BCG polysaccharide
Auricularia auricular-judae polysaccharide (AAP) has shown a variety of pharmacological properties. In the present study, the role of AAP in acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was analyzed in rats to further explore the possible underlying mechanisms. Adult Sprague-Dawley
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects and the possible mechanism of Cryptoporus polysaccharides (CP) extracted from fruiting body of Cryptoporus volvatus in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in rats and mice.
METHODS
Acute lung injury was induced by intratracheally instillation of
The comparative evaluation of group A meningococcal antigens of different chemical nature (protein, polysaccharide, lipopolysaccharide and complex fraction) was made by the method of paw edema. The preparations were introduced in a dose of 100 micrograms/0.05 ml. The dynamics of the development of
The inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) production is considered to be a promising approach to the treatment of various diseases, including inflammation and cancer. In this study, we examined the effects of the Agrocybe chaxingu beta-glucan (polysaccharide) on
