ABSTRACT
A water-soluble polysaccharide from the brown alga Ishige Okamurae, designated IOP-0, was obtained by preparative anion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography. Chemical and spectroscopic investigations revealed that IOP-0 was a sulfated fucoidan with a backbone primarily composed of 3-linked and 4-linked-L-fucose with sulfate groups at C-2/C-4 of the 3-linked-L-fucose. The protective effect of IOP-0 on ulcerative colitis was evaluated in this work. The results showed that IOP-0 could significantly alleviate the symptoms of ulcerative colitis by preventing weight loss, preserving the structure of intestinal tissues, and ameliorating the dysregulation of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10). Meanwhile, IOP-0 protected the colonic mucosal barrier by promoting the tight junction protein ZO-1 and occludin expression. In addition, IOP-0 was able to maintain intestinal homeostasis and improve intestinal function by regulating the gut microbiota and their metabolites, such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These results suggest that IOP-0 might be a potential dietary supplement for the prevention and treatment of ulcerative colitis.
