Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease. Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora polysaccharide (GPP) is an important constituent of a species of Glycyrrhiza pallidiflora, but its therapeutic mechanism in UC mice is not clear. A dextran sulphate sodium salt (DSS)-induced mouse model of UC was established, and GPP was extracted by ultrasound-assisted extraction, optimised to a GPP content of 25.66% by one-factor optimisation. The effects of different doses (100, 200, 300 mg/kg) of GPP on UC were investigated. The results showed that GPP could delay the trend of weight loss, reduce the DAI score and decrease colon damage in mice, and GPP had a better ameliorative effect on enteritis, which provided a theoretical basis for studying the effect of natural products on UC.
溃疡性结肠炎(UC)是一种特发性炎症性肠病。光果甘草多糖(GPP)是光果甘草的一种重要成分,但其在UC小鼠中的治疗机制尚不清楚。建立了葡聚糖硫酸钠(DSS)诱导的UC小鼠模型,并采用超声辅助提取法提取GPP,通过单因素优化将GPP含量优化至25.66%。研究了不同剂量(100、200、300mg/kg)的GPP对UC的影响。结果表明,GPP可延缓小鼠体重减轻趋势,降低疾病活动指数(DAI)评分,减轻结肠损伤,且GPP对肠炎有较好的改善作用,为研究天然产物对UC的作用提供了理论依据。
