ABSTRACT
Two novel sulfated polysaccharides (SPs), N10 and K5 were isolated from ammonium sulfate or potassium sulfate at concentrations of 10 mM and 5 mM in liquid cultures of Antrodia cinnamomea, respectively. N10 and K5 were galactoglucans with a galactoseglucose molar ratio of approximately 13. In lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells, N10 and K5 exhibited strong anti-inflammatory potential, of 56 % and 23 % maximal inhibition of IL-6 and TNF-α production, respectively. Mechanical analysis revealed differences between N10 and K5, with N10 inhibiting the LPS-stimulated phosphorylation of ERK and p38 in RAW264.7 cells. K5 inhibited the LPS-stimulated phosphorylation of AKT and TGFßR-II. N10 and K5 were fragmented into F1, F2, and F3, the molecular weights of which were 455, 24, 0.9, and 327, 36, 1.9 kDa, respectively. K5 F2 and K5 F3 exhibited high degrees of sulfation of 13 and 18, resulting in strong anti-inflammation, of 83 % and 37 % highest inhibition of IL-6 and TNF-α production, respectively. Therefore, low-molecular-weight and high-sulfation-degree SPs exhibited strong anti-inflammatory activity. Specifically, K5 F2 inhibited the phosphorylation of p38, and K5 F3 suppressed the signaling pathway of p38/JNK. Overall, the sulfation degree of SPs is concluded to affect the anti-inflammatory responses.
