Structure and rheology of the polysaccharides from Schizymenia dubyi: Isolation of an unusual glucurono-carrageenan. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 342:122324. [PMID: 39048213 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.122324] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024]
Abstract
The system of polysaccharides from Schizymenia dubyi (Nemastomatales) was investigated. It contains a mixture of hybrid dl galactans (SH-S) and carrageenan-like polysaccharides, which were separated by means of precipitation with KCl at high concentrations. The structural features of the carrageenan-like fraction (SH-I) were investigated by methylation analysis, desulfation, uronic acid reduction, and NMR spectroscopy. It was concluded that the structure has the typical alternance α-(1 → 3), β-(1 → 4) of d-galactose units, with most of the 3-linked units sulfated in O-2 (and some in O-4), and most of the 4-linked units sulfated in O-3, and substituted in O-2 by single stubs of β-d-glucuronic acid (partly sulfated in each of the three available positions). This substituent has been only seldom found in red seaweed galactans. Rheological studies of 5 % and 10 % w/v SH, SH-S and SH-I aqueous systems, either without ions, or in KCl or CaCl2 solution gave thickening behaviors. Their random coil conformations justify the pseudoplastic behavior observed in the viscosity versus shear rate curves. As SH-S and SH-I are both contained in SH, an interpenetrating network could form in SH between the glucurono-carrageenan and the agaran, as inferred from the mechanical spectra recorded in water, especially with potassium ion.

Abstract
Agarans represent a group of galactans extracted from red algae. Funoran and agarose are the two major types and commercially applied polysaccharides of agaran. Although the glycoside hydrolases targeting β-glycosidic bonds of agaran have been widely investigated, those capable of degrading α-glycosidic bonds of agarose were limited, and the enzyme degrading α-linkages of funoran has not been reported till now. In this study, a GH96 family enzyme BiAF96A_Aq from a marine bacterium Aquimarina sp. AD1 was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli. BiAF96A_Aq exhibited dual activities towards the characteristic structure of funoran and agarose, underscoring the multifunctionality of GH96 family members. Glycomics and NMR analysis revealed that BiAF96A_Aq hydrolyzed the α-1,3 glycosidic bonds between 3,6-anhydro-α-l-galactopyranose (LA) and β-d-galactopyranose-6-sulfate (G6S) of funoran, as well as LA and β-d-galactopyranose (G) of agarose, through an endo-acting manner. The end products of BiAF96A_Aq were majorly composed of disaccharides and tetrasaccharides. The identification of the activity of BiAF96A_Aq on funoran indicated the first discovery of the funoran hydrolase for α-1,3 linkage. Considering the novel catalytic reaction, we proposed to name this activity as "α-funoranase" and recommended the assignment of a dedicated EC number for its classification.

Abstract
Macroalgae are valuable and structurally diverse sources of bioactive compounds among marine resources. The cell walls of macroalgae are rich in polysaccharides which exhibit a wide range of biological activities, such as anticoagulant, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antitumor activities. Macroalgae polysaccharides (MPs) have been recognized as one of the most promising candidates in the biomedical field. However, the structure-activity relationships of bioactive polysaccharides extracted from macroalgae are complex and influenced by various factors. A clear understanding of these relationships is indeed critical in developing effective biomedical applications with MPs. In line with these challenges and knowledge gaps, this paper summarized the structural characteristics of marine MPs from different sources and relevant functional and bioactive properties and particularly highlighted those essential effects of the structure-bioactivity relationships presented in biomedical applications. This review not only focused on elucidating a particular action mechanism of MPs, but also intended to identify a novel or potential application of these valued compounds in the biomedical field in terms of their structural characteristics. In the last, the challenges and prospects of MPs in structure-bioactivity elucidation were further discussed and predicted, where they were emphasized on exploring modern biotechnology approaches potentially applied to expand their promising biomedical applications.

Complex sulfated galactans from hot water extracts of red seaweed Asparagopsis taxiformis comprise carrageenan and agaran structures. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 322:121314.

Abstract
Hot water extraction from the red seaweed Asparagopsis taxiformis yielded three extracts which showed sulfated galactans with a D:L-galactose ratio non consistent with carrageenan or agaran backbones. The major extract was fractionated by cetrimide precipitation and redissolution with increasing sodium chloride concentrations due to their low solubility. Seven fractions were obtained, and studied by methylation analysis, desulfation-methylation, and NMR spectroscopy of the partially hydrolyzed and the native samples. Fractions with the highest yield were those obtained at high concentrations of NaCl. They comprised both agaran and crageenan structures in considerable amounts. The main agaran structures were β-D-galactose 4-sulfate and β-D-galactose 2-sulfate units linked to α-L-galactose 2,3-disulfate residues, and β-D-galactose linked to α-L-galactose 3-sulfate or 6-sulfate, or substituted with single stubs of β-D-xylose on C3, while the carrageenan structures comprised β-D-galactose (2-sulfate) linked to α-D-galactose 3-sulfate or 2,3-disulfate, and β-D-galactose 2,4-disulfate linked to α-D-galactose 2,3-disulfate. Between the less sulfated fractions, the one obtained by solubilization in 0.5 M NaCl was mainly constituted by agarans, which included 3,6-anhydro-α-L-galactose units. Anticoagulant activity was assayed by general coagulation tests (aPTT and TT), showing a moderate action compared with heparin. This is the first detailed study of the sulfated galactans from the order Bonnemaisoniales.

Abstract
Hybrid carrageenans, also called kappa-2 (K2) or weak kappa, are a class of sulfated polysaccharides with thermo-reversible gelling properties in water and are extracted from a specific family of red seaweeds. K2 are known in the industry for their texturizing properties which are intermediate between those of kappa-carrageenans (K) and iota-carrageenans (I). As such, K2 are gaining industrial interest, as they can replace blends of K and I (K + I) in some niche applications. Over the last decade or so, some progress has been made in unravelling K2's chemical structure. The understanding of K2 gel's structure-rheological properties' relationships has also improved. Such recent progress is reported here, reviewing the literature on gelling K2 published since the last review on the topic. The focus is on the seaweeds used for extracting K2, their block copolymer chemical structures, and how these impact on the gel's formation and rheological properties. The outcome of this review is that additional rheological and structural studies of K2 hydrogels are needed, in particular to understand their viscoelastic behavior under large deformation and to unravel the differences between the texturizing properties of K2 and K + I.

Abstract
Comparative structural analysis of gelling polysaccharides from A. flabelliformis and M. pacificus belonging to Phyllophoraceae and the effect of their structural features and molecular weight on human colon cancer cell lines (HT-29, DLD-1, HCT-116) was carried out. According to chemical analysis, IR and NMR spectroscopies, M. pacificus produces kappa/iota-carrageenan with a predominance of kappa units and minor amounts of mu and/or nu units, while the polysaccharide from A. flabelliformis is iota/kappa-carrageenan (predominance of iota units) and contains negligible amounts of beta- and nu-carrageenans. Iota/kappa- (Afg-OS) and kappa/iota-oligosaccharides (Mp-OS) were obtained from the original polysaccharides through mild acid hydrolysis. The content of more sulfated iota units in Afg-OS (iota/kappa 7:1) was higher than in Mp-OS (1.0:1.8). The poly- and oligosaccharides up to 1 mg/mL did not show a cytotoxic effect on all tested cell lines. Polysaccharides showed an antiproliferative effect only at 1 mg/mL. Oligosaccharides had a more pronounced effect on HT-29 and HCT-116 cells than the original polymers, while HCT-116 cells were slightly more sensitive to their action. Kappa/iota-oligosaccharides exhibit a greater antiproliferative effect and more strongly decrease the number of colonies forming in HCT-116 cells. At the same time, iota/kappa-oligosaccharides inhibit cell migration more strongly. Kappa/iota-oligosaccharides induce apoptosis in the SubG0 and G2/M phases, while iota/kappa-oligosaccharides in the SubG0 phase.

Abstract
The sulfated polysaccharides from cystocarpic plants of Mazzaella parksii were studied. Fractionation at a given KCl concentration allowed us to assume, and stepwise fractionation to prove, that these polysaccharides consisted of several carrageenans that differed in structure and molecular weight. As a result of stepwise fractionation with KCl, nine gelling (1-9) and one non-gelling (10) fractions were obtained. Using IR spectroscopy, it was shown that fractions 3, 4 and 5 were kappa/iota-, kappa- and kappa/beta-carrageenans, respectively. The structures of the main fractions 1, 2, 9 and 10 were investigated in more detail by methylation, NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Fractions 1 and 2 were hybrid kappa/iota-carrageenans with kappa:iota ratio 79:21 and 63:37, respectively. At the same time, fraction 9 contained kappa-, iota- and small amounts of nu-carrageenans. The fraction 10 had complex structure and was built from kappa-, iota-, beta-, mu- and nu-carrageenans and included agar-like structure, which explained the inability of this fraction to gel at 15 % KCl. It was shown that isolated polysaccharides activated the classical pathway of complement system, increasing the concentration of C1 inhibitor of serine protease by 50 % compared with the negative control.

Abstract
Some sulfated polysaccharides from red seaweeds are used as hydrocolloids. In addition, it is well known that there are sulfated galactans (carrageenans and agarans) and sulfated mannans, with remarkable biological properties, as antiviral, antitumoral, immunomodulating, antiangiogenic, antioxidant, anticoagulant, and antithrombotic activities, and so on. Knowledge of the detailed structure of the active compound is essential and difficult to acquire. The substitution patterns of the polymer chain, as degree of sulfation and position of sulfate groups, as well as other substituents of the backbone, determine their biological behavior. NMR spectroscopy is a powerful and versatile tool for structural determination. It can be used for elucidation of structures of polysaccharides from new algal sources with novel substitutions or to detect the already known structures from different algal sources, and it could even help to monitor the quality of the active compound on a productive scale. In this review, the available information about NMR spectroscopy of sulfated polysaccharides from red seaweeds is revised and rationalized, to help other researchers working in different fields to study their structures. In addition, considerations about the effects of different structural features, as well as some recording conditions on the chemical shifts of the signals are analyzed.

Abstract
An antiviral agent is urgently needed based on the high probability of the emergence and re-emergence of future viral disease, highlighted by the recent global COVID-19 pandemic. The emergence may be seen in the discovery of the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and recently discovered Omicron variants of SARS-CoV-2. The need for strategies besides testing and isolation, social distancing, and vaccine development is clear. One of the strategies includes searching for an antiviral agent that provides effective results without toxicity, which is well-presented by significant results for carrageenan nasal spray in providing efficacy against human coronavirus-infected patients. As the primary producer of sulfated polysaccharides, marine plants, including macro- and microalgae, offer versatility in culture, production, and post-isolation development in obtaining the needed antiviral agent. Therefore, this review will describe an attempt to highlight the search for practical and safe antiviral agents from algal-based sulfated polysaccharides and to unveil their features for future development.

Abstract
Most marine macroalgae such as red seaweeds are potential alternative sources of useful bioactive compounds. Beside serving as food source, recent studies have shown that red seaweeds are rich sources of bioactive polysaccharides. Red seaweed polysaccharides (RSPs) have various physiological and biological activities, which allow them to be used as immunomodulators, anti-obesity agents, and prebiotic ingredients. Lack of summary information and human clinical trials on the various polysaccharides from red seaweeds, however limits industrial-scale utilization of RSPs in functional foods. This review summarizes recent information on the approaches used for RSPs extraction and purification, mechanistic investigations of their biological activities, and related molecular principles behind their purported ability to prevent diseases. The information here also provides a theoretical foundation for further research into the structure and mechanism of action of RSPs and their potential applications in functional foods.

Abstract
Marine sources are gaining popularity and attention as novel materials for manufacturing biopolymers such as proteins and polysaccharides. Due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and non-toxicity features, these biopolymers have been claimed to be beneficial in the development of food packaging materials. Several studies have thoroughly researched the extraction, isolation, and latent use of marine biopolymers in the fabrication of environmentally acceptable packaging. Thus, a review was designed to provide an overview of (a) the chemical composition, unique properties, and extraction methods of marine biopolymers; (b) the application of marine biopolymers in film and coating development for improved shelf-life of packaged foods; (c) production flaws and proposed solutions for better isolation of marine biopolymers; (d) methods of preparation of edible films and coatings from marine biopolymers; and (e) safety aspects. According to our review, these biopolymers would make a significant component of a biodegradable food packaging system, reducing the amount of plastic packaging used and resulting in considerable environmental and economic benefits.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the structural characteristics and novel biological activity of polysaccharide purified from red seaweed Bangia fusco-purpurea (BFP). Methylation, GC/MS, and NMR analyses suggested that the proposal repeating structure of BFP was →3)-β-D-Galp-(1→, →3)-β-D-Galp6S-(1 → 4)-α-D-Galp-(1→, →4)-α-D-Galp-(1 → 4)-α-L-AnGalp-(1 → 3)-β-D-Galp-(1→, and →4)-α-D-Galp-(1 → at a molar ratio of 13: 1: 1: 1. Interestingly, BFP exhibited significant cell migration- and tube formation-promoting activities toward human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in a concentration-dependent manner via increasing the N-cadherin expression and decreasing the E-cadherin expression. Furthermore, ERK and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) specific inhibitors exhibited potent inhibitory effects on BFP-induced cell migration but not JNK MAPK inhibitor, suggesting ERK and p38 MAPK signaling pathways were mainly involved in BFP-induced cell migration. Moreover, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor significantly inhibited BFP-induced cell migration and tube formation in HUVECs, suggesting VEGF receptors of HUVECs were involved in the pro-angiogenesis activity of BFP. This is the first report that a sulfated polysaccharide possessing a pro-angiogenic effect was obtained from red seaweed. Our findings are expected to promote the practical use of red seaweed B. fusco-purpurea and its polysaccharide in the development of the in vitro and ex vivo vascular endothelial cell-based cell therapy products.

Abstract
The growing demand for new, sophisticated, multifunctional materials has brought natural structural composites into focus, since they underwent a substantial optimization during long evolutionary selection pressure and adaptation processes. Marine biological materials are the most important sources of both inspiration for biomimetics and of raw materials for practical applications in technology and biomedicine. The use of marine natural products as multifunctional biomaterials is currently undergoing a renaissance in the modern materials science. The diversity of marine biomaterials, their forms and fields of application are highlighted in this review. We will discuss the challenges, solutions, and future directions of modern marine biomaterialogy using a thorough analysis of scientific sources over the past ten years.

Abstract
In order to improve the characters of carrageenan fibers, two different process methods were presented in this study. Dopes prepared directly from Chondrus extraction by Route A-adding NaOH after Chondrus extraction-or Route B-using NaOH solution to extract Chondrus and carrageenan fibers (Fibers A and Fibers B)-were obtained using the wet spinning process using barium chloride as the coagulant at room temperature. The properties of dopes were studied by dynamic light scattering and gel permeation chromatography. The properties of Fibers A and Fibers B were comprehensively studied by Fourier transform infrared, thermal analysis, scanning electron microcopy, and tensile testing. The results showed that carrageenan with a larger molecule weight in Dope A and Fibers A showed higher intensity, better morphology, and stable thermal properties.

Abstract
Galactans are important components of many plant cell walls. Besides, they are the major polysaccharides in extracellular matrixes from different seaweeds, and other marine organisms, which have an acidic character due to the presence of sulfate groups in their structures. In particular, most of the red seaweeds biosynthesize sulfated galactans with very special linear backbones, constituted by alternating (1→3)-β-d-galactopyranose units (A-unit) and (1→4)-α-galactopyranose residues (B-unit). In the industrially significant seaweeds as source of hydrocolloids, B-units belong either to the d-series and they produce carrageenans (as in the order Gigartinales), or to the l-series, and they are sources of agarose and/or structurally related polymers (i.e., Gelidiales, Gracilariales). In both cases, the latter units appear as cyclized 3,6-anhydro-α-galactose in certain amounts, which can be increased by alkaline cyclization of α-galactose 6-sulfate units. Besides, it has been clearly shown that some red algae produce different amounts of both galactan structures, known as d/l-hybrids. It is not yet clear if they comprise both diasteromeric types of units in the same molecule, or if they are mixtures of carrageenans and agarans that are very difficult to separate. It has been reported that the biosynthesis of these galactans, showing that the nucleotide transport for d-galactopyranose units is UDP-d-Gal, while for l-galactose, it is GDP-l-Gal, so, there is a different pathway in the biosynthesis of agarans. However, at least in those seaweeds that produce carrageenans as major galactans, but also agarans, both synthetic pathways should coexist. Another interesting characteristic of these galactans is the important variation in the sulfation patterns, which modulate their physical behavior in aqueous solutions. Although the most common carrageenans are of the κ/ι- and λ-types (with A-units sulfated at the 4- and 2-positions, respectively) and usually in agarans, when sulfated, is at the 6-position, many other sulfate arrangements have been reported, greatly influencing the functional properties of the corresponding galactans. Other substituents can modify their structures, as methyl ethers, pyruvic acid ketals, acetates, and single stubs of xylose or other monosaccharides. It has been shown that structural heterogeneity at some extent is essential for the proper functional performance of red algal galactans.

Abstract
Seaweeds biosynthesize sulfated polysaccharides as key components of their cell walls. These polysaccharides are potentially interesting as biologically active compounds. Green macroalgae of the class Ulvophyceae comprise sulfated polysaccharides with great structural differences regarding the monosaccharide constituents, linearity of their backbones, and presence of other acidic substituents in their structure, including uronic acid residues and pyruvic acid. These structures have been thoroughly studied in the Ulvales and Ulotrichales, but only more recently have they been investigated with some detail in ulvophytes with giant multinucleate (coenocytic) cells, including the siphonous Bryopsidales and Dasycladales, and the siphonocladous Cladophorales. An early classification of these structurally heterogeneous polysaccharides was based on the presence of uronic acid residues in these molecules. In agreement with this classification based on chemical structures, sulfated polysaccharides of the orders Bryopsidales and Cladophorales fall in the same group, in which this acidic component is absent, or only present in very low quantities. The cell walls of Dasycladales have been less studied, and it remains unclear if they comprise sulfated polysaccharides of both types. Although in the Bryopsidales and Cladophorales the most important sulfated polysaccharides are arabinans and galactans (or arabinogalactans), their major structures are very different. The Bryopsidales produce sulfated pyruvylated 3-linked β-d-galactans, in most cases, with ramifications on C6. For some species, linear sulfated pyranosic β-l-arabinans have been described. In the Cladophorales, also sulfated pyranosic β-l-arabinans have been found, but 4-linked and highly substituted with side chains. These differences are consistent with recent molecular phylogenetic analyses, which indicate that the Bryopsidales and Cladophorales are distantly related. In addition, some of the Bryopsidales also biosynthesize other sulfated polysaccharides, i.e., sulfated mannans and sulfated rhamnans. The presence of sulfate groups as a distinctive characteristic of these biopolymers has been related to their adaptation to the marine environment. However, it has been shown that some freshwater algae from the Cladophorales also produce sulfated polysaccharides. In this review, structures of sulfated polysaccharides from bryopsidalean, dasycladalean, and cladophoralean green algae studied until now are described and analyzed based on current phylogenetic understanding, with the aim of unveiling the important knowledge gaps that still exist.

Abstract
The aims of the present study were to characterize for the first time the carrageenan extracted from cystocarpic stage of S. crispata collected in the Patagonian coast of Argentina, and to prepare interpolyelectrolytic complexes (IPECs) between the polysaccharide extracted from cystocarpic stage of Sarcothalia crispata and Gigartina skottsbergii thalli, and basic butylated methacrylate copolymer (Eudragit E), in order to test their potential for the controlled release of ibuprofen as model drug. The structural determination revealed that the polysaccharides extracted from S. crispata and G. skottsbergii were mainly constituted by κ-carrageenan, particularly in the case of G. skottsbergii; however, significant amounts of ι- and ν-carrageenan were also detected in both polygalactans. The differences in diad composition and possibly in their distribution along the polysaccharide chain of both carrageenans would favor a different arrangement in the resulting IPEC structure. The smaller pores observed by scanning electron microscopy in the IPEC of S. crispata suggest that the kinks in the polysaccharide backbone are evenly distributed, resulting in a slower ibuprofen release compared to the IPEC of G. skottsbergii.

OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2018; 2018:7410389. [PMID: 30174781 PMCID: PMC6098909 DOI: 10.1155/2018/7410389] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2017] [Revised: 04/30/2018] [Accepted: 07/12/2018] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Natural Gracilaria lemaneiformis sulfated polysaccharide (GLP0, molecular weight = 622 kDa) was degraded by H2O2 to obtain seven degraded fragments, namely, GLP1, GLP2, GLP3, GLP4, GLP5, GLP6, and GLP7, with molecular weights of 106, 49.6, 10.5, 6.14, 5.06, 3.71, and 2.42 kDa, respectively. FT-IR and NMR results indicated that H2O2 degradation does not change the structure of GLP polysaccharides, whereas the content of the characteristic -OSO3H group (13.46% ± 0.10%) slightly increased than that of the natural polysaccharide (13.07%) after degradation. The repair effects of the polysaccharide fractions on oxalate-induced damaged human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were compared. When 60 μg/mL of each polysaccharide was used to repair the damaged HK-2 cells, cell viability increased and the cell morphology was restored, as determined by HE staining. The amount of lactate dehydrogenase released decreased from 16.64% in the injured group to 7.55%-13.87% in the repair groups. The SOD activity increased, and the amount of MDA released decreased. Moreover, the mitochondrial membrane potential evidently increased. All polysaccharide fractions inhibited S phase arrest through the decreased percentage of cells in the S phase and the increased percentage of cells in the G2/M phase. These results reveal that all GLP fractions exhibited repair effect on oxalate-induced damaged HK-2 cells. The repair ability is closely correlated with the molecular weight of the fractions. GLP2 with molecular weight of about 49.6 kDa exhibited the strongest repair effect, and GLP with higher or lower molecular weight than 49.6 kDa showed decreased repair ability. Our results can provide references for inhibiting the formation of kidney stones and developing original anti-stone polysaccharide drugs.

Abstract
Motivated by the extensive application of carrageenans, this work prepared carrageenan fibers via wet spinning. The optimum spinning parameters were explored by means of an orthogonal test. According to the results of tensile test, dope concentration, draw ratio, coagulation bath temperature, and coagulation bath concentration set to 9%, 1.2, 15°C and 5%, respectively, were the optimum spinning conditions. These parameters were then applied to fabricate fibers treated with epichlorohydrin in a stretch bath. The result of tensile testing demonstrated a positive improvement in the intensity, and SEM showed obvious necking phenomenon of the crosslinked carrageenan fibers. The structures and special groups were characterized with X-ray diffraction and FTIR, and the results indicated the regularity of the net structure and the increase in ether bond and methylene. In some, crosslinking reactions in optimum parameter conditions yield excellent fibers and thus present promising applications.
