In the present study, the preliminary structure and in vitro antitumor activity of three exopolysaccharides (EPSs) from CH9 were investigated. Then, three purified fractions of EPS-1a, EPS-2a, and EPS-3a were obtained by chromatography using DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephadex G-100, respectively. The average molecular weight of EPS-1a, EPS-2a, and EPS-3a, were 1.80 × 10⁶, 1.06 × 10⁶ and 1.05 × 10⁶. The monosaccharide composition of EPS-3a was dramatically different from the others. The EPS-1a and EPS-2a were mainly composed of mannose, in a ratio of 69.82% and 57.09%, respectively, while EPS-3a was mainly composed of glucose (63.93%), without mannose. In addition, the surface morphology observed suggested that there were protein particles on the sugar chain of EPS-3a and EPS-3a was a protein-containing polysaccharide. Furthermore, EPS-3a exhibited higher antitumor activity against human liver cancer HepG2 cells in vitro. The antitumor activity of EPS-3a in HepG2 cells was associated with cell apoptosis. HE staining and Hoechst 33342 staining showed that with the treatment of EPS-3a, HepG2 cells had typical morphological changes. Flow cytometry analysis showed that the cell cycle was arrested at G0/G1 phase.
在本研究中,研究了 CH9 中的三种胞外多糖(EPS)的初步结构和体外抗肿瘤活性。然后,通过 DEAE-52 纤维素和 Sephadex G-100 层析分别得到三种纯化的 EPS-1a、EPS-2a 和 EPS-3a 级分。EPS-1a、EPS-2a 和 EPS-3a 的平均分子量分别为 1.80×106、1.06×106 和 1.05×106。EPS-3a 的单糖组成与其他两种明显不同。EPS-1a 和 EPS-2a 主要由甘露糖组成,比例分别为 69.82%和 57.09%,而 EPS-3a 主要由葡萄糖(63.93%)组成,不含甘露糖。此外,观察到的表面形态表明 EPS-3a 的糖链上存在蛋白质颗粒,并且 EPS-3a 是一种含有蛋白质的多糖。此外,EPS-3a 在体外对人肝癌 HepG2 细胞表现出更高的抗肿瘤活性。EPS-3a 在 HepG2 细胞中的抗肿瘤活性与细胞凋亡有关。HE 染色和 Hoechst 33342 染色显示,随着 EPS-3a 的处理,HepG2 细胞具有典型的形态变化。流式细胞术分析显示细胞周期被阻滞在 G0/G1 期。
