The characteristic, antioxidative and multiple organ protective of acidic-extractable mycelium polysaccharides by Pleurotus eryngii var. tuoliensis on high-fat emulsion induced-hypertriglyceridemic mice

Sci Rep. 2018 Nov 30;8(1):17500. doi: 10.1038/s41598-018-35706-8.

Abstract

The antioxidant and multiple organ protection effects of acid- extracted mycelia polysaccharides (Ac-MPS) from Pleurotus eryngii var. tuoliensis on HFE-induced hypertriglyceridemic mice were investigated. The results showed that Ac-MPS have potential ability to relieve the hypertriglyceridemia and preventing oxidative stress by decreasing levels of TG, TC LDL-C, elevating contents of HDL-C in serum, increasing the activities of SOD, GSH-Px, CAT and T-AOC, and the down regulating MDA and LPO contents in liver, heart, kidney and spleen. And the histopathological observations also displayed that Ac-MPS could alleviate organ damage. Moreover, the GC, HPGPC, FT-IR and AFM analyses revealed the Ac-MPS possessed the typical polysaccharides structure with the molecular weights (Mw) of 2.712 × 105 Da. These conclusions indicated that the Ac-MPS had the potential to develop new drugs for hypertriglyceridemia-induced multiple organ failure.
