Influence of Sarcodon imbricatus polysaccharide on immune function in immunosuppressive mouse

چکیده
The objectives of this study were to investigate the immune enhancement activity of the Sarcodon imbricatus polysaccharide (SIP). In this study, water extraction method was employed to isolate polysaccharides from the Sarcodon imbricatus. The immunoloregulation effects of SIP were evaluated with models of cyclophosphamideinduced mouse immunosuppression. The immunoloregulation activities of SIP were investigated using T lymphocyte subpopulation assays. The ability of these polysaccharides to stimulate mouse cytokine and splenocyte proliferation were measured using ELISA test and MTT reagent. The results revealed that SIP could significantly increase CD3+% and decrease CD4+/CD8+ with dose-dependent in vivo. In serum, IL-2 and IFN-γ content were raised after the immunosuppressive mouse were treated by SIP, meanwhile the serum IL-4 content was decreased. SIP also significantly promoted splenocyte proliferation. The immunoenhancement activities of SIP was better than astragalus polysaccharides (APS) with same dose. Outcomes of this research strongly indicate that SIP display significant immunoenhancement activities to immunosuppressive mouse, and have therapeutic potential to be used for the treatment of immunosuppressive disease.

About 200 species of fungi called as ìmedicinal mushroomsî containing biologically activity substances, are currently known (1, 2). The greatest interest in mycochemistry is focused on polysaccharides, e.g., β-glucans, due to their immunomodulating, anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. Some of them possess antibacterial and antiviral activity. These compounds have been isolated from fru...

Abstract Background and Objectives Recently, mesenchymal stem cells have attracted much attention in regenerative medicine and cell-based therapies. Mesenchymal stem cells are used in regenerative medicine mainly based on their capacity to differentiate into several cell lineages, low immunogenicity, and in particular their anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive-immunomodulatory properties. ...

Objective(s):Sub-health has been described as a chronic condition of unexplained deteriorated physiological function, which falls between health and illness. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP), a polysaccharide fraction purified from Lycium barbarum (L. barbarum) on the sub-health mice. Materials and Methods:The sub-health model mice were buil...

Background: Sharks get cancer rarely. A major difference between these animals and other species is that sharks have a great amount of cartilaginous tissue. Immunomodulatory effects of the cartilage of some species (cow) have been proved. Because the immune system has a major role in the defense of the body against cancer, we studied the effects of shark cartilage on the mouse and human immune...

Contact hypersensitivity (CHS) mouse model induced by 2, 4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) is thought to be a T helper 1 (Th1)-dominant response and used for investigating anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents. However, it is hardly used for screening large-scale drugs because of the large number of animals and complex mechanisms involved in-vivo. In this study, we focused on whether T lym...
