W.Culb(T.subuliformis).A newheteroglycan THSA was gained by hot water extraction and further continuously purification through Sephadex G-75 and Superdex 200 column chromatography.The structural characteristics of THSA were primarily investigated by molecular mass estimation,monosaccharide composition analysis and Fourier transforminfrared spectroscopy(FT-IR).The anti-inflammatory effects of THSA was also estimated in lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-stimulated mouse macrophages cell line RAW264.7 through the method of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and quantitative real-time PCR.The results indicate that THSA is composed of Glc,Gal,Man in the ratio 1:2.1:6.16,with average molecular weight of about 12.4 k Da,and significantly inhibits the mRNA expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α),IL-6 at100 or 1 000 μg/m L and increases the anti-inflammatory cytokine level of IL-10 at 100 μg/m L.It indicates that polysaecharide THSA has strong anti-inflammatory activity.展开更多
