Xie XT, Zhang X, Liu Y, Chen XQ, Cheong KL. Quantification of 3,6-anhydro-galactose in red seaweed polysaccharides and their potential skin-whitening activity. 3 Biotech 2020; 10:189. [PMID: 32269894 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-020-02175-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2020] [Accepted: 03/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
This study determined the composition of the monosaccharide, 3, 6-anhydrogalactose (AnGal), in red algae and explored the potential whitening activity of the extract. Using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the AnGal composition of six different species of red seaweed (Porphyra haitanensis, Gracilaria chouae, Gracilaria blodgettii, Gracilaria lemaneiformis, Eucheuma galetinae, and Gelidium amansii) was successfully analyzed, revealing molar ratios ranging from 1.0:1.0 to 1.0:3.1 of AnGal and galactose (Gal), respectively. Employing the tyrosinase inhibition assay, the skin-whitening effect of AnGal red seaweed polysaccharides was determined. Polysaccharides from P. haitanensis, G. chouae, and G. blodgettii as well as their degradation products showed higher tyrosinase inhibitory activity (inhibition rates 24.2-26.8%). These results suggest that the GC-MS approach could conveniently be used in quality control or for the quantitative determination of AnGal and Gal in red seaweed polysaccharides as well as exploring their potential application in cosmetic and functional food products. The findings here exhibited that red seaweed polysaccharides and their degradation products were potential ingredients for cosmeceutical industries.

Sanjeewa KKA, Jayawardena TU, Kim SY, Lee HG, Je JG, Jee Y, Jeon YJ. Sargassum horneri (Turner) inhibit urban particulate matter-induced inflammation in MH-S lung macrophages via blocking TLRs mediated NF-κB and MAPK activation. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2020; 249:112363. [PMID: 31678416 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2019.112363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2019] [Revised: 10/15/2019] [Accepted: 10/26/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Sargassum horneri is a nutrient rich edible brown seaweed with numerous biological properties found in shallow coastal areas of Korean peninsula. S. horneri traditionally used as a medicinal ingredient to treat several disease conditions such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, heart disease, and inflammatory diseases (furuncle). However, to utilize S. horneri as an active ingredient for functional foods and human health applications requires to conform the bioactive properties and underlying mechanisms of those activities. AIM OF THE STUDY Here, we investigated anti-inflammatory mechanisms of commercial grade 70% ethanol extract separated from S. horneri (SHE) on inflammatory response in particulate matter (PM)-induced MH-S lung macrophages; where PM in breathable air one of the major health concern in Korea. MATERIALS AND METHODS We compared the anti-inflammatory effects of SHE on the activity of toll-like receptors (TLR) activation, NF-κB, MAPKs, and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion in MH-S lung macrophages exposed to PM as a lung inflammation model. RESULTS According to the results, PM-stimulation, induced the levels of NO, PGE2, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, iNOS, and COX2 (P < 0.05) in MH-S macrophages. In addition, phosphorylation levels of NF-κB and MAPKs were also increased with the PM stimulation through the upregulated expression of TLR. However, SHE treatment significantly repressed the secretions of inflammatory cytokines and reduced protein expression such as PGE2, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, NF-κB, and MAPKs from PM-activated macrophages. Specifically, SHE inhibited the upregulated mRNA expression levels of TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, and TLR7 in PM-induced MH-S cells; known biomarkers of downstream activation of NF-κB and MAPKs. CONCLUSION These results suggested that SHE is a potential inhibitor of PM-induced inflammatory responses in lung macrophages. Thus, SHE could inhibit PM-induced chronic inflammation in lungs via blocking TLR/NF-κB/MAPKs signal transduction. Therefore, it was concluded that SHE may be a useful substance to develop as functional product to reduce inflammation against PM-induced inflammation.

Abstract
In this study, an eco-friendly extraction method was explored to obtain high sulfate content agar and repair the deficiency of enzymatic extraction by taking full advantage of H2O2. The sulfate content of EHA (H2O2-assisted enzymatic extracted agar) reached 3.56 %, which is significantly higher than that of traditional alkali-extracted agar (AA, 1.8 %). Moreover, EHA exhibited lower viscosity (9.4 cP), which improved 26.6 % and 14 % of filtration and gel dehydration rates than EA (enzymatic extracted agar), respectively. Additionally, the physicochemical properties of the agars were evaluated and compared. Among these agars, EHA showed some favorable properties, such as high yield (16.08 %) and low dissolution temperature (88.9 °C). The surface of algae became smoother after treatment with H2O2 due to effective degradation of cellulose. Besides, mass spectrometry analysis revealed that EHA preserved a great amount of sulfate, while thermogravimetric analysis suggested that the thermal stability of EA and EHA both decreased.

Abstract
In the present study, the in vitro anti-inflammatory activity of four purified polysaccharides (CLGP1, CLGP2, CLGP3 and CLGP4) extracted from edible green algae Caulerpa lentillifera was evaluated. As a result, CLGP4 exhibited more effectively inhibitory effect on LPS-induced HT29 cells, including reducing the production of IL-1β, TNF-α, SIgA and mucin2, and decreasing the expression of IL-1β and TNF-α. According to the results, CLGP4 showed a better anti-inflammatory effect, might highly related to the presence of sulfate groups. Furthermore, the structure of CLGP4 was analyzed by methylation analysis, GC-MS and NMR spectroscopy. It was found that CLGP4 was a novel xylogalactomanan consisting of β-(1 → 4)-Manp, →2,4)Manp(1→, β-(1 → 2)-Manp, β-(1 → 3)-Galp, β-(1 → 4)-Xylp, terminal β-Galp and terminal β-Xylp residues. Additionally, the sulfate groups were located on C-3 of →4)Xylp(1→, C-6 of →3)Galp(1→ and C-3 of →2)Manp(1→. These results could enlarge the potential application of CLGP4 as functional ingredient to attenuate inflammation.
