Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of polysaccharide preparation, and more specifically, to a method for preparing polysaccharides that promotes intestinal absorption and its application. Background Art

[0002] As a class of natural macromolecular polymers with complex structures, polysaccharides have a wide range of biological activities. Research shows that fucoidans (such as Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides) exhibit significant effects in aspects such as antioxidant, anti-photoaging, blood glucose homeostasis regulation, immune activation, and intestinal flora regulation. In-depth study of its oral absorption mechanism is of great significance for fully exploring its biological potential. However, the traditional view is that high-molecular polysaccharides are difficult to penetrate the intestinal epithelial barrier, resulting in limited oral absorption.

[0003] In recent years, with the rapid development of molecular biology and drug delivery technologies, researchers have explored various strategies to promote the intestinal absorption of polysaccharides. Qiu Fu'an, in "Nanonization Improves the Absorption Characteristics and Mechanisms of Hericium erinaceus Polysaccharides", used the emulsification-solvent evaporation method to prepare nano-Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide microparticles, which improved the Caco-2 cell uptake rate and transmembrane transport rate of the polysaccharides. However, this process involves organic solvent residues and has potential biosafety hazards.

[0004] Therefore, providing a green, safe, and highly absorbable method for preparing polysaccharides is an urgent problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0027] Example 1

[0028] (1) Pretreatment of raw materials and degreasing and purification: Place fresh Sargassum fusiforme in an ultrasonic cleaner and ultrasonically treat it 3 times with deionized water at 40 °C (10 minutes each time, power 200 W) to remove surface salts, sediment, and attached organisms. Drain the water and dry it to constant weight in an oven at 60 °C. Use a pulverizer to crush the dried Sargassum fusiforme into a coarse powder with a particle size ≤ 2 mm, and then use a low-temperature vibrating cell-level ultrafine pulverizer to perform ultrafine pulverization for 10 minutes and pass through a 60-mesh sieve.

After stirring and mixing evenly, let it stand at 4 °C for 12 hours. After standing, centrifuge and discard the supernatant. Redissolve the precipitate with ultrapure water and freeze-dry it under vacuum to obtain crude polysaccharide from Sargassum fusiforme.

[0030] ((3) UV / H2O2 degradation: Dissolve the crude polysaccharide from Sargassum fusiforme in ultrapure water and mix it with an H2O2 solution to obtain a mixed solution.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] (1) Pretreatment of raw materials and degreasing and purification: Place fresh Sargassum fusiforme in an ultrasonic cleaner and ultrasonically treat it 3 times with deionized water at 40 °C (10 minutes each time, power 200 W) to remove surface salts, sediment, and attached organisms. Drain the water and dry it to constant weight in an oven at 60 °C. Use a pulverizer to crush the dried Sargassum fusiforme into a coarse powder with a particle size ≤ 2 mm, and then use a low-temperature vibrating cell-level ultrafine pulverizer to perform ultrafine pulverization for 10 minutes and pass through a 60-mesh sieve.

[0033] (2) Extraction of crude polysaccharides from Sargassum fusiforme: Defatted Sargassum fusiforme powder was mixed with ultrapure water at a ratio of 1:50 (g / mL), mechanically stirred and extracted in a constant temperature water bath at 100 °C for 4 h, and the residue was removed by vacuum filtration. The filtrate was concentrated by rotary evaporation to 1 / 5 of the original volume, and then 95% ethanol was slowly added until the final ethanol concentration reached 80% (v / v).

[0035] Comparative Example 1

[0036] Step (3) in Example 1 was omitted, and the other steps were the same as those in Example 1 to obtain crude polysaccharides from Sargassum fusiforme, named A.

[0037] Effect Example 1

[0038] 1. Determination of polysaccharide molecular weight and total sugar content

[0039] The molecular weight of the polysaccharide was determined by high performance gel permeation chromatography. The specific experimental steps were as follows: 4.0 mg of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide sample was accurately weighed, dissolved in 0.02 mol / L KH2PO4 buffer solution, filtered through a 0.22 μm aqueous filter membrane and injected. A chromatographic column TSKgel G-6000PWXL (7.8 × 300 mm) and TSKgel G-3000PWXL (7.8 × 300 mm) were used in series, the column temperature was set at 35 ± 1 °C; the mobile phase was 0.02 mol / L KH2PO4 solution, the flow rate was 0.5 mL / min; a Waters2414 differential refractive index detector was used; the injection volume was 30 μL. A molecular weight - elution time standard curve was established with a series of dextran standards (4.66 - 556 kDa), and the sample molecular weight was calculated through the standard curve based on the elution volume. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0040] The total sugar content of the polysaccharide was determined by the phenol-sulfuric acid method. The specific experimental steps were as follows: Using fucose as the standard, a series of standard solutions with concentrations of 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.08, and 0.1 mg / mL were prepared respectively. Take 1 mL of each concentration standard solution, sequentially add 1 mL of 5% (w / v) phenol solution and 5 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid, mix well and let it stand for reaction for 20 min. Use a UV-visible spectrophotometer to measure the absorbance value of the reaction solution at a wavelength of 490 nm. Draw a standard curve with the fucose concentration as the abscissa and the absorbance value as the ordinate, and establish a linear regression equation.

[0041] Prepare a 0.1 mg / mL solution of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide, accurately pipette 1 mL, and perform the same treatment and measure the absorbance value according to the above color reaction method. Substitute the measured absorbance value into the standard curve equation to calculate the total sugar content of the polysaccharide sample. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0042] Table 1

[0043]

[0044] Table 1 presents the determination results of the average molecular weight and total sugar content of three groups of polysaccharide samples. The experimental results show that after UV / H2O2 degradation treatment, the molecular weight of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide shows a significant decreasing trend (P < 0.05), and an obvious molecular weight gradient distribution (high, medium, low) is formed among the three groups of samples, which establishes a basic model for studying the effect relationship between degradation and absorption. The total sugar content of each group of samples is maintained within the range of 51 - 62 wt%, and no significant difference is found after statistical analysis (P > 0.05), indicating that the UV / H2O2 degradation treatment can effectively regulate the molecular weight of polysaccharide while keeping the total sugar content of polysaccharide unaffected.

[0045] 2. Identification of Fluorescently Labeled Polysaccharide

[0046] (1) Amination of polysaccharide: Weigh A, B, and C (200 - 400 mg) obtained from the examples and comparative examples respectively and dissolve them in PBS solution with a pH of 8.0 and a concentration of 0.2 mol / L (8 - 15 mL). Sequentially add Tyramine (200 - 400 mg) and NaBH3CN (75 - 150 mg). The mixed solution reacts at 37 °C for three days, centrifuge to take the supernatant, and purify by dialysis. Add absolute ethanol, place it at 4 °C for 12 h, centrifuge to take the precipitate, and freeze-dry to obtain the aminated polysaccharide samples, named A-A, A-B, and A-C respectively.

[0047] (2) Covalent coupling of polysaccharide with FITC: The aminated polysaccharide sample was dissolved in a 0.5 mol / L NaHCO3 solution (20 - 40 mL), FITC (15 - 25 mg) was added, and the reaction was carried out in the dark at 37 °C in a constant temperature shaker for 24 h. After dialysis purification, absolute ethanol was added, and it was left at 4 °C for 12 h. The precipitate was collected by centrifugation, and the dry fluorescently labeled polysaccharide was obtained by nitrogen blowing, named FA, FB, and FC respectively.

[0048] (3) Prepare solutions of FA, FB, and FC (concentration 0.1 mg / mL), and use an ultraviolet spectrophotometer to scan the ultraviolet-visible light spectrum of the solution in the range of 200 - 600 nm.

[0049] (4) Take 20 - 50 μL of the FA, FB, and FC solutions (same concentration as above) and drop them on a glass slide. Slowly cover the glass slide to make a sample of the fluorescently labeled polysaccharide, and observe its fluorescence signal through a fluorescence microscope.

[0050] The aminated and FITC-labeled Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides were characterized by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and the results are shown in the appendix Figure 1 . Compared with the untreated polysaccharide, the aminated polysaccharides (A-A, A-B, A-C) showed characteristic absorption peaks at 280 nm, indicating that amino groups had been successfully introduced into the polysaccharide molecular structure. Further, the FITC-labeled polysaccharides (FA, FB, FC) showed characteristic absorption peaks at 490 nm, and this spectral change confirmed the effective binding of FITC to the polysaccharide molecule.

[0051] Appendix Figure 2 shows the fluorescence microscopy imaging results of the three groups of samples FA, FB, and FC. The results showed that the FITC-labeled experimental groups (FA, FB, FC) all showed obvious green fluorescence signals, while no fluorescence was detected in the unlabeled control groups (A, B, C), confirming that effective fluorescence labeling was achieved in all three groups of samples, meeting the technical requirements of subsequent tracer experiments.

[0052] 3. Cytotoxicity determination of polysaccharide on Caco-2 cells

[0053] Caco-2 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were seeded at 1.0×10 per well 4Cells were inoculated into a 96-well plate at a density of [density value], cultured in an incubator at 37°C with 5% CO₂ for 12 h, and the culture medium was aspirated. A control group and sample groups were set up. Among them, 100 μL of complete medium was added to the control group, and 100 μL of different sample solutions (concentrations of 125, 250, 500, 1000 μg / mL) were added to the sample groups. The samples were prepared with complete medium, and after being fully dissolved, they needed to be filtered through a 0.22 μm filter membrane. After culturing for 12 h, the supernatant was aspirated, 50 μL of MTT solution was added to each well, and the cells were incubated in the dark in the incubator for 4 h. The MTT solution was aspirated, 150 μL of dimethyl sulfoxide solution (DMSO) was added to each well to dissolve formazan, and it was shaken to fully dissolve. The absorbance of each well was measured at 570 nm, and the cell survival rate was calculated, with the absorbance of the control group taken as the 100% standard.

[0054] Appendix Figure 3 shows the results of cytotoxicity evaluation of three polysaccharide samples on the Caco-2 cell line using the MTT method. The experimental data indicate that within the concentration range of 125 - 1000 μg / mL, the cell survival rate of all tested groups remained above 80%. This finding not only confirmed that the polysaccharide samples had no obvious toxic effect on Caco-2 cells within this concentration range but also further verified the biocompatibility of the fluorescence labeling process, ensuring that the labeled polysaccharide samples were suitable for subsequent biological function research and experimental applications without affecting cell viability.

[0055] 4. Evaluation of Transmembrane Transport Efficiency Based on the Caco-2 Cell Monolayer Model

[0056] (1) Construction of the 21-day Caco-2 cell monolayer model: Caco-2 cells in the logarithmic growth phase (density of 0.8×10 5 -1.5×10 5 cell / cm 2 ) were inoculated onto the AP side of a Transwell polycarbonate membrane (pore size 0.4 μm), and complete medium was added to the BL side. They were cultured in a cell incubator at 37°C with 5% CO₂ for 21 days. The culture medium was changed daily, and the morphology of Caco-2 cells was observed. The model resistance value, alkaline phosphatase activity ratio, and fluorescein sodium permeability were measured, and the model with indicators meeting the requirements was selected for subsequent experiments.

[0057] Through this method, the present invention successfully constructed a Caco-2 cell monolayer model for polysaccharide absorption and transport research. On the 21st day of culture, it was found through morphological observation that Caco-2 cells formed a complete monolayer membrane structure with good tight junctions between cells, meeting the morphological requirements for absorption and transport experiments. The detection results of the relevant indicators of this model are as follows: the transmembrane resistance value was 865.50 ± 26.67 Ω·cm 2, the alkaline phosphatase activity ratio (AP / BL) is greater than 1.5, and the apparent permeability coefficient of sodium fluorescein (AP-BL) is less than 1×10 -6 cm / s. The above indicators all meet the establishment standards of the Caco-2 cell monolayer model and can be used for subsequent experimental studies.

[0058] (2) Time-dependent transport experiment analysis: Add HBSS buffer containing FA, FB, and FC to the AP side of the Caco-2 cell monolayer model, and the BL side is the blank HBSS buffer. At the preset time points from 0 to 240 min, collect the transport medium from the BL side for detection, and calculate the cumulative transport amount of the fluorescently labeled polysaccharide in the Caco-2 cell monolayer.

[0059] Appendix Figure 4 shows the change trend of the cumulative transport amount (AP-BL direction) of the polysaccharide in the Caco-2 cell model over time (0-240 min). The experimental results show that at the same time point, there are significant differences in the cumulative transport amounts of the three groups of samples: FA < FB < FC (P<0.05). Especially at 240 min, the transport amount of FC increased by 55.6% compared with that of FA without degradation treatment. This result confirms that the molecular weight-regulated degradation technology can significantly enhance the transmembrane transport efficiency of polysaccharides.

[0060] 5. Analysis of the intestinal absorption characteristics of polysaccharides based on the everted gut sac model

[0061] (1) Construction and incubation of the everted gut sac model: After fasting a healthy rat for 12 hours, anesthetize and laparotomize it. Quickly intercept 7-10 cm of intestinal segments (duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon) and wash them. Carefully separate the mesentery and fat on the surface of the intestinal segments, and turn the intestinal segments inside out to construct everted gut sacs. Fix the proximal end of the gut sac on a polyethylene catheter and tie it firmly with a thin thread. Also tie the distal end with a thin thread to form a closed sac-like intestinal tube. Inject Krebs-Ringer buffer into the gut sac and suspend it in a test tube containing Krebs-Ringer buffer. Provide a constant water bath at 37°C and a mixed gas of 95% oxygen and 5% carbon dioxide for the gut sac, and equilibrate for 10 min.

[0062] (2) Determination of the transport of fluorescently labeled polysaccharides in the everted gut sac model: After equilibration and leak detection, replace the nutrient solution in the test tube with the test solution containing FA, FB, and FC. After 120 min, collect the fluid inside the gut sac for detection and calculate its transport rate (see Table 2).

[0063] Table 2

[0064]

[0065] Table 2 presents the absorption rates (%) of FA, FB, and FC in different intestinal segments. Data analysis shows that: (1) The absorption rates of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide in the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum are significantly higher than those in the colon (P<0.05); (2) Except for the colon, significant gradient differences of C>B>A in absorption rates are presented in each intestinal segment (P<0.05). These results confirm that the bioavailability of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide can be effectively improved by the UV / H2O2 degradation technology.
