ABSTRACT
Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestinal tract with unknown definitive etiology. Polysaccharides are among the most important active components of Abelmoschi Corolla, exhibitings various pharmacological activities such as antioxidation and immunomodulation. However, no studies have yet reported the application of Abelmoschi Corolla Polysaccharides (ACP) in treating UC. This study aims to highlight the therapeutic efficacy of ACP in UC and reveal the underlying mechanism. The potential therapeutic effect is initially verified using a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis model. 16S rRNA sequencing is performed using feces samples and untargeted metabolomics using serum samples to further reveal that ACP reprograms the dysbiosis triggered by UC progression, increases the abundance of Bacteroides spp., Blautia spp., and Parabacteroides spp. at the genus level and enriches the serum concentration of 7-ketodeoxycholic acid (7-KDA). Furthermore, using the FXR-/- mouse model, it is revealed that Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) is a key target for ACP and the metabolite 7-KDA to block STAT3 phosphorylation by repairing the intestinal barrier to attenuate UC. Taken together, this work highlights the therapeutic potential of ACP against UC, mainly exerting its effects via modulating gut microbiota and regulating the FXR/STAT3 signaling pathway.
