Kang YR, Chang YH. Structural characterization and prebiotic activity of rhamnogalacturonan-I rich pumpkin pectic polysaccharide extracted by alkaline solution. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 270:132311. [PMID: 38740154 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132311] [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: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the structural and physicochemical characteristics of alkali-extracted pectic polysaccharide (AkPP) and to evaluate its prebiotic effects. AkPP was obtained from pumpkin pulp using an alkaline extraction method. AkPP, which had a molecular weight (Mw) of mainly 13.67 kDa and an esterification degree of 9.60%, was composed mainly of galacturonic acid (GalA), rhamnose (Rha), galactose, and arabinose. The ratio of the homogalacturonan (HG) region to the rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I) region in AkPP was 48.74:43.62. In the nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum, the signals indicating α-1,4-linked D-GalA, α-1,2-linked L-Rha, α-1,2,4-linked L-Rha residues were well resolved, demonstrating the presence of the HG and RG-I regions in its molecular structure. Collectively, AkPP was low methoxyl pectin rich in the RG-I region with short side chains and had a low Mw. Thermal analysis revealed that AkPP had good thermal stability. Compared to inulin, AkPP more effectively promoted the proliferation of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG, Lacticaseibacillus casei, and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and the production of lactic, acetic, and propionic acids. This study presents the unique structural features of AkPP and provides a scientific basis for further investigation of the potential of AkPP as a promising prebiotic.

[PMID: 37944714 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
Polysaccharides have been widely used in pharmaceutical and food industries due to their diverse bioactivity, high safety, and few or no side effects. However, inability to quickly produce, screen, and synthesize bioactive polysaccharides is the limiting factor for their development and application. Structural features determine and influence the bioactivity of polysaccharides. Among them, monosaccharide is the basic unit of polysaccharide, which not only affects electrification, functional group, and bioactivity of polysaccharide but also is one of the simplest polysaccharide indexes to be detected. At present, effects of monosaccharide composition and proportion on anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antitumor, immunomodulatory, antibacterial, and prebiotic activities of polysaccharides are reviewed. Further problems need to be considered during regulation and analysis of monosaccharide composition and proportion of polysaccharides. Overall, present work will provide help and reference for production, development, and structure-function investigation of polysaccharides based on their monosaccharide.

Abstract
Variations in the structure and activities of polysaccharides from Tetrastigma hemsleyanum Diels et Gilg fermented by Sanghuangporus sanghuang fungi were investigated. Compare with the unfermented polysaccharide (THDP2), the major monosaccharide composition and molecular weight of polysaccharide after fermentation (F-THDP2) altered dramatically, which caused galactose-induced conversion from glucose and one-third of molecular weight. F-THDP2 had a molecular weight of 1.23 × 104 Da. Moreover, the glycosidic linkage of F-THDP2 varied significantly, a 1, 2-linked α-d-Galp and 1, 2-linked α-d-Manp backbone was established in F-THDP2, which differed from that of 1, 4-linked α-d-Glcp and 1, 4-linked β-d-Galp in THDP2. In addition, F-THDP2 showed a more flexible chain conformation than that of THDP2 in aqueous solution. Strikingly, F-THDP2 exhibited superior inhibitory effects on HeLa cells via Fas/FasL-mediated Caspase-3 signaling pathways than that of the original polysaccharide. These variations in both structure and biological activities indicated that fermentation-mediated modification by Sanghuangporus sanghuang might a promising novel method for the effective conversion of starch and other polysaccharides from Tetrastigma hemsleyanum Diels et Gilg into highly bioactive biomacromolecules, which could be developed as a potential technology for use in the food industry.

Abstract
Hemicellulose was extracted by alkali treatment of de-pectinated cell wall material of Santalum album L. (sandalwood) suspension culture cells. The physicochemical properties and prebiotic activities of a purified major fraction of Hemicellulose-B, termed as HB-I, were investigated. GC analysis of hydrolyzed and derivatized HB-I showed the presence of arabinose (~64 %), galactose (~16 %) and glucose (~16 %) as major monosaccharide units along with minor amount of rhamnose. Methylation and NMR studies on the purified polysaccharide revealed the presence of 6-β-d-Glcp, β-d-Galp, 3,5-α-l-Araf, α-l-Araf, 5-α-l-Araf, 2,3-α-l-Araf and, α-l-Rhap residues, from which a proposed structure of repeating units was established. The growth of probiotic Lactobacillus spp. strains L. acidophilus, L. casei, L. plantarum and L. rhamnosus was promoted while that of Escherichia coli was suppressed significantly in presence of HB-I. Our results highlight valorization of sandalwood biomass and explore the role of mixed α, β-linked heteroglycan as a potential prebiotic molecule thus indicating the possibility of development of low-cost bioprocesses for production of functional food ingredients.

Abstract
Dietary fiber (DF) was extracted from navel orange peel residue by enzyme (E-DF) and ultrasound-assisted deep eutectic solvent (US-DES-DF), and its physicochemical and prebiotic properties were characterized. Based on Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, all DF samples exhibited typical polysaccharide absorption spectra, indicating that DES could separate lignin while leaving the chemical structure of DF unchanged, yielding significantly higher extraction yields (76.69 ± 1.68%) compared to enzymatic methods (67.27 ± 0.13%). Moreover, ultrasound-assisted DES extraction improved the properties of navel orange DFs by significantly increasing the contents of soluble dietary fiber and total dietary fiber (3.29 ± 1.33% and 10.13 ± 0.78%, respectively), as well as a notable improvement in the values of water-holding capacity, oil-holding capacity, and water swelling capacity. US-DES-DF outperformed commercial citrus fiber in stimulating the proliferation of probiotic Bifidobacteria strains in vitro. Overall, ultrasound-assisted DES extraction exhibited potential as an industrial extraction method, and US-DES-DF could serve as a valuable functional food ingredient. These results provide a new perspective on the prebiotic properties of dietary fibers and the preparation process of prebiotics.

Abstract
Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) is consumed in almost every part of the world enclosed in shells that are thrown out in baskets. Similarly, hulls separated from pistachio are discarded as waste in food processing industries. These waste materials contain functional constituents having immense industrial and nutraceutical applications. This review article summarizes the scientific investigations regarding the functional constituents and bioactive compounds in pistachio shells (PSs) and pistachio hulls (PHs). It also highlights the nutraceutical potential exhibited by functionally active compounds as well as their potential applications in various industries including nutraceutical, medicinal, and feed industries together with biosynthetic development of useful products and wastewater treatment. Pistachio waste (PW) comprising PS and PH is a rich source of various bioactive compounds. PS is full of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose. PH is an excellent source of carbohydrates (80.64 ± 0.98%) (including glucose, galactose, rhamnose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, galacturonic acid) as well as ash (6.32 ± 0.26%) and proteins (1.80 ± 0.28%) with small amounts of fats (0.04 ± 0.005%). Owing to its composition, PW can be beneficial in many nutraceuticals, including antioxidation, cytoprotection, anti-obesity, anti-diabetic, anti-melanogenesis, neuroprotection, anti-cancer, anti-mutagenesis, anti-inflammation, and anti-microbial. The waste materials have vast applications in the food industry, such as bio-preservation of oils and meat products, prevention of enzymatic browning in fruits, vegetables, and mushrooms, development of functional cereal and dairy products, production of food enzymes, emulsions, and manufacturing of biodegradable films for food packaging. The use of these waste products to develop and design novel functional foods with improved quality is important for both food industries and food sustainability.

Abstract
This study investigated the chemical structures and probiotic potential of different polysaccharides (LPs) extracted from the litchi pulp that fermented with Lactobacillus fermentum for different times (i.e., 0–72 h corresponding to LP-0 through LP-72, respectively). Fermentation times affected the yields, total sugar contents, uronic acid contents, molecular weights, and monosaccharide compositions of LPs. The LPs yields and uronic acid contents exhibited irregular trends in association with fermentation time, while total sugar contents decreased, and the molecular weights increased. Particularly, LP-6 contained the highest extraction yields (2.67%), lowest uronic acid contents, and smallest average Mw (104 kDa) (p < 0.05). Moreover, analysis of the monosaccharide composition in the fermented LPs indicated that the proportions of glucose decreased, while arabinose and galacturonic acid proportions increased relative to unfermented LP-0. Further, LP-6 demonstrated the highest growth for Bifidobacterium compared to LP-0, while the other fermentation time led to comparable or worse probiotic promoting activities. These results suggest that lactic acid bacteria fermentation alters the physicochemical properties of litchi polysaccharides, such that suitable fermentation time can enhance their probiotic activities.

Abstract
This work studies the extraction and purification of a novel arabinogalactan from pistachio external hull. It was extracted with a simple method from pistachio hull which is considered as unexploited waste. Based on the results of sugar analysis by GC-FID, glycosidic linkage by GC-MS, NMR spectroscopy, and molecular weight by Size Exclusion Chromatography, pistachio hull water soluble polysaccharides (PHWSP) were identified as a type II arabinogalactan (AG), with characteristic terminally linked α-Araf, (α1 → 5)-Araf, (α1 → 3,5)-Araf, terminally linked β-Galp, (β1 → 6)-Galp, and (β1 → 3,6)-Galp. DEPT-135, HSQC, HMBC and COSY NMR data suggested the presence of (β1 → 3)-Galp mainly branched at O-6 with (β1 → 6)-Galp chains, α-Araf chains, and terminally linked α-Araf. These AG from pistachio external hulls showed in vitro stimulatory activity for B cells, suggesting their possible use as an immunological stimulant in nutraceutical and biomedical applications.

Pistachio hull polysaccharide protects Nile tilapia against LPS-induced excessive inflammatory responses and oxidative stress, possibly via TLR2 and Nrf2 signaling pathways. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 121:276-284. [PMID: 34968712 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2021.12.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Polysaccharides are polymeric carbohydrates found in living organisms, which have several physiological functions. In the present study, Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) were fed diets containing three levels (0%, 0.2%, and 0.6%) of Pistacia vera hull polysaccharide (PHP) for 45 days and then injected with PBS or bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Before the LPS challenge, Nile tilapia fed 0.2% and 0.6% PHP showed significantly increased mean final weight and weight gain compared to those received 0% PHP. The specific growth rate and feed conversion ratio were significantly improved in the treatment fed 0.6% PHP compared to the remaining groups. After LPS challenge, the activities of liver antioxidant enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase exhibited the highest values in the 0.6% PHP group. Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly augmented in the model (fed 0% PHP diet and injected with LPS) and 0.2% PHP groups compared to the control. However, MDA showed decreased levels in the 0.6% PHP group. LPS induced higher mRNA and/or protein levels of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (Myd88), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), and interferon γ (IFN-γ) in Nile tilapia liver. However, PHP administration significantly upregulated the expression of interleukin 10 (IL-10), nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), SOD, and CAT, but markedly suppressed TLR2, NF-κB, Myd88, and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression and/or production in the liver. The findings of the current study indicated that PHP has positive effects on growth performance, immune gene-related expression, and antioxidative activities. We can conclude that PHP can attenuate LPS-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in vivo, possibly via induction of Nrf2 and blockade of TLR2/Myd88/NF-κB pathways in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
Litchi pomace, a by-product of litchi processing, is rich in dietary fiber. Soluble and insoluble dietary fibers were extracted from litchi pomace, and insoluble dietary fiber was modified by ultrasonic enzymatic treatment to obtain modified soluble and insoluble dietary fibers. The structural, physicochemical, and functional properties of the dietary fiber samples were evaluated and compared. It was found that all dietary fiber samples displayed typical polysaccharide absorption spectra, with arabinose being the most abundant monosaccharide component. Soluble dietary fibers from litchi pomace were morphologically fragmented and relatively smooth, with relatively high swelling capacity, whereas the insoluble dietary fibers possessed wrinkles and porous structures on the surface, as well as higher water holding capacity. Additionally, soluble dietary fiber content of litchi pomace was successfully increased by 6.32 ± 0.14% after ultrasonic enzymatic modification, and its arabinose content and apparent viscosity were also significantly increased. Further, the soluble dietary fibers exhibited superior radical scavenging ability and significantly stimulated the growth of probiotic bacterial species. Taken together, this study suggested that dietary fiber from litchi pomace could be a promising ingredient for functional foods industry.

Abstract
This study evaluated the growth performance, immune responses, and disease resistance of Nile tilapia upon pistachio hulls derived polysaccharide (PHDP) and Pediococcus acidilactici (PA) separately or as synbiotic. Fish received four types of diets: T1, control; T2, PHDP (0.1%); T3, PA (0.2%); T4, PHDP (0.1%) +PA (0.2%) for 56 days. The results showed that final weight and weight gain were markedly higher in fish fed T4 diet than that given T1 and T2 diets (P ≤ 0.05). In addition, a significantly greater specific growth rate was obtained by the T4 diet compared to the control. Fish survival was significantly improved in all supplemented diets compared to the control. On the other hand, the activities of lipase, protease, and amylase showed significant increases in the T4 group compared with other feeding groups. The total leucocytes and lymphocytes proportion significantly elevated in T3 and T4 than remaining groups (P ≤ 0.05). Further, fish fed T3 diet presented significantly higher serum total protein, total immunoglobulin, lysozyme activity (LYZ), alternative complement activity (ACH50), and alkaline phosphatase activity compared to fish fed T1 and T2 diets, while the mentioned indices were found significantly highest in T4 group than others. Fish received T3 and T4 diets had higher skin mucus LYZ and ACH50 than those fed T1 and T2 diets (P ≤ 0.05). The malondialdehyde levels were significantly declined in T3 and T4 when compared to the control. Fish fed T3 and T4 diets demonstrated significantly enhanced superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase activities compared to the control. The intestinal propionic acid significantly increased by T2 and T4 diets, while the highest levels of acetic acid detected in fish given T4 diet. The expression levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), and interleukin 10 (IL-10) were significantly affected by T3 and T4 supplements. The efficacy of T4 diet against Aeromonas hydrophila infection was documented by a significantly lower mortality rate. In conclusion, the combination of PHDP and PA presented promising results as a synbiotic feed additive for Nile tilapia.

Structure Characterization of Polysaccharide from Chinese Yam ( Dioscorea opposite Thunb.) and Its Growth-Promoting Effects on Streptococcus thermophilus. Foods 2021; 10:foods10112698.

Abstract
To clarify the mechanisms underlying the growth-promoting effects of yam polysaccharide on Streptococcus thermophilus (S. thermophilus), the yam polysaccharide was extracted using a deep eutectic solvents (DESs) method and separated into four fractions by DEAE-cellulose 52. These fractions were used as the alternative carbon source to substitute lactose to compare their growth-promoting effects on S. thermophilus. Furthermore, their molecular weight, monosaccharide and functional groups' composition, microscopic forms and other basic structure characterizations were analyzed. The results showed that all the fractions could significantly promote S. thermophilus growth, and fractions exhibited significantly different growth-promoting effects, whose viable count increased by 6.14, 6.03, 11.48 and 11.29%, respectively, relative to those in the M17 broth medium. Structure-activity relationship analysis revealed that the high growth-promoting activity of yam polysaccharide might be more dependent on the higher molecular weight, the higher galacturonic acid content and its complex spatial configuration, and the existence of β-glycosides would make the yam polysaccharide have a better growth-promoting effect on S. thermophilus.

Abstract
One water-soluble polysaccharide (WDOP) and three alkali-soluble polysaccharides (ADOP1, ADOP2 and ADOP3) were successfully obtained from Dendrobium officinale. Molecular structure of the polysaccharides was analyzed, and in vitro lactic acid fermentation of the polysaccharides by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria was performed. All the polysaccharides exerted proliferative effect on the LAB and bifidobacteria. ADOP2 was the most effective one, followed by WDOP. This could be attributed to their molecular structure features, such as a high level of total sugar, uronic acid and reducing sugar, an abundance of glucose and mannose, and a low and middle weight-average molecular weight. ADOP2 and WDOP produced more short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) than ADOP1 and ADOP3 did during lactic acid fermentation. Propionic and acetic acids were the main SCFAs produced. These findings are useful for understanding the structure-activity relationship of D. officinale polysaccharides in lactic acid fermentation, and for developing new functional foods and beverages from D. officinale.

Abstract
The present study aimed at evaluating the supplementation of dietary Pistacia vera hulls derived polysaccharide (PHDP) at varying levels (0, 2.5, 5, and 10 g/kg diet) on the growth rate, digestive enzyme activity, immune response, and antioxidative capacity of Nile tilapia. After the feeding trial (60 days), fish were injected intraperitoneally with Aeromonas hydrophila, and the cumulative mortality was calculated for 10 days. The final body weight, weight gain, specific growth rate, survival rate, amylase activity, red blood cells, hemoglobin, serum total protein, and serum lysozyme activity (LZM) were significantly higher in fish fed PHDP at 5 and 10 g/kg than fish fed 0 and 2.5 g/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). However, the feed conversion ratio and glucose levels were significantly decreased by 5 and 10 g PHDP/kg diet. Further, the protease digestive activity, serum alkaline phosphatase, and serum alternative complement (ACH50) had higher values in fish fed 5 g PHDP/kg diet than tilapia fed 0 g PHDP/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). The serum protease and immunoglobulin (Ig) presented the highest values in fish fed 10 g PHDP/kg diet followed by fish fed 5 g PHDP/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). The LZM, ACH50, and Ig in the mucus samples were significantly higher in fish fed 5 or 10 g PHDP/kg diet than fish fed 0 g PHDP/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). The levels of superoxide dismutase and catalase in the liver tissue was significantly higher in fish fed 5 or 10 g PHDP/kg diet than fish fed 2.5 g PHDP/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). On the other hand, malondialdehyde concentration was significantly lower in tilapia fed 5 and 10 g PHDP/kg diet than tilapia fed 0 and 2.5 g PHDP/kg diet (P ≤ 0.05). The lowest mortality rate and the highest relative percentage survival were in fish fed 5 g/kg followed by 10 g level after 10 days of A. hydrophila injection. Accordingly, dietary PHDP at 5-10 g/kg is recommended to improve the growth performance, antioxidative capacity, immune response, and resistance against A. hydrophila in Nile tilapia.

Abstract
Tragacanth gum (TG) displayed a prebiotic activity, but its application was restricted due to high viscosity and deterioration of organoleptic and textural characteristics of food. In this study, TG was depolymerized by Pectinex Ultra Color enzyme followed by membrane separation (30 kDa) to get pectinase hydrolyzed fraction of tragacanth gum (PHFTG) with molecular weight more than 30 kDa. The average molecular weight of PHFTG was 147.7 ± 11.5 g/mol having a fucoxylogalacturonan structure. The prebiotic activity was tested using PHFTG, TG, and inulin as a carbon source. The results showed that the count of Lactobacillus casei in PHFTG- and inulin-supplemented media increased significantly during the 48-hr fermentation (p < .05). Five batches of low-fat set yogurts were prepared by the following formulation: Control (without both L. casei and prebiotic), LC-Cont (containing L. casei), LC-PHFTG (containing L. casei + 0.5% PHFTG), LC-TG (containing L. casei + 0.05% TG), and LC-In (containing L. casei + 0.5% inulin), and L. casei population and physicochemical properties were monitored during 21-day storage at 4°C. The number of L. casei remained highly acceptable (8.54-8.61 log CFU/g) during 7-21 days of storage in LC-PHFTG. LC-In and LC-PHFTG presented significantly lower syneresis and higher sensory acceptability than LC-Cont and Control during storage (p < .05). LC-TG displayed weaker body and texture, lower sensory acceptability, and higher syneresis than other samples. This study provides support for expanding the utilization of PHFTG as a potential prebiotic and fat replacer in non- or low-fat dairy products with satisfactory sensory quality.

Abstract
There is a strong correlation between dysregulation of the gastrointestinal microbiota and development of allergic diseases. The most prevalent therapies for relieving asthma symptoms are associated with serious side effects, and therefore novel approaches are needed. Our objective was to elucidate whether oral administration of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) as a probiotic or turmeric powder (TP) as a prebiotic or both as a synbiotic mitigate allergic inflammation including lung function, airway inflammatory cell infiltration, Th2 cytokines/chemokine in a murine model of house dust mite (HDM)-induced asthma. BALB/c mice were intranasally sensitized and challenged with HDM received TP (20 mg/Kg mouse), or/and LGG (105 or 107 cfu/ml), or both orally. Interestingly, the synbiotic intervention (HDM-TP-LGG E7) specifically suppress the developement of airway hyperresponsiveness in response to methacholine. Besides, our synbiotic, TP, and LGG strongly down-regulated eosinophilia, IL-5, CCL17, IL-13. In terms of T cell response, CD4+ Th2 cells and CD4+ Th17 population were reduced in the splenocytes of the treatment groups compared to control. The synbiotic group not only elevated CD25+Foxp3+Treg frequency compared to asthmatic group, but also increased T reg cells compared to the probiotic group. The synbiotic also indicated the superior effect in suppressing Th2 cells compared to probiotic. Although, TP and LGG alone displayed suppressive effects, this study showed that the combination therapy consisting of TP and LGG (synbiotic) is more effective in some of the parameters than either of the treatments alone. This novel synbiotic, might be considered as a potential food-based drug for translational medicine and can possibly be used along with corticosteroid treatment.

Abstract
Three polysaccharide fractions from bamboo shoot (Chimonobambusa quadrangularis), CPS70, CPS75, and CPS80, were prepared using a final ethanol concentration of 70%, 75%, and 80% in the precipitation process. In vitro digestibility and the prebiotic activity of CPS70, CPS75, and CPS80 were evaluated and compared. The results indicated that all three of the CPS fractions exhibit a high degree of nondigestibility to human gastric juice (>98.5%) or α-amylase hydrolysis (>94.5%). Compared with the blank control, the three CPS fractions could not only significantly (p < .05) stimulate the proliferation of B. adolescentis, B. infantis, B. bifidum, and L. acidophilus, but also significantly (p < .05) enhance the production of lactic, acetic, propionic, and butyric acids when these polysaccharides were added as alternative carbon sources to glucose during the in vitro fermentation of four probiotics. Furthermore, when comparing the three CPS fractions, CPS75 displayed the strongest prebiotic potential, as this polysaccharide had the strongest effect on the proliferation of probiotic bacteria as well as the greatest effect on SCFAs production. These results demonstrated that the concentration of ethanol used during the precipitation process has a significant impact on the prebiotic activity of CPS. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Ethanol precipitation is the first step when extracting polysaccharides from aqueous extracts as it is simple, rapid, and easy to carry out. This study focuses on how different concentrations of ethanol used in the precipitation process affect the prebiotic potential of bamboo shoot (Chimonobambusa quadrangularis) polysaccharides (CPS). The result indicated that the concentration of ethanol used during the precipitation process has a significant impact on the prebiotic activity of CPS. To our knowledge, it is the first to evaluate the effects of the concentration of ethanol during the process of precipitation on prebiotic potential of polysaccharides, which can subsequently be applied to the optimization of ethanol concentration when precipitating natural polysaccharides for the purpose of in vitro fermentation.

Abstract
Prebiotics are regarded as the non-digestible food constituents that are selectively consumed by health-promoting bacteria (probiotics). In fact, a number of active metabolites is released due to intensive interaction between prebiotics and probiotics in the gut which exert local and systemic beneficial effects including regulation of intestinal disorders and modulation of host immunity. Turmeric is one of the most important medicinal herbaceous that is derived from Curcuma longa rhizome. Curcumin is a well-recognized component of turmeric which contributes to the prevention of multiple inflammatory diseases. Despite curcumin as a well-known compound, few researches have focused on the turmeric extract (TE) and its potential as prebiotic and anti-inflammatory compound. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prebiotic potential and some functional-structural properties of TE. The Fourier-transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectrum of TE showed identical peaks that belonged to β configuration in pyranose and glycosidic bonds. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis revealed the presence of potent phenolic and flavonoid anti-oxidants and curcuminoids, and some functional monosaccharides. TE demonstrated excellent resistance to artificial human gastric and intestine juice compared to the standard prebiotic (inulin) (p ≤ 0.05). Interestingly, our time course experiment showed that TE not only is digested by probiotics including Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and Bifidobacterium animalis BB12, but also supports the growth of these bacteria even after 72 h (p ≤ 0.05). To our knowledge, this is the first report evaluating prebiotic potential of TE and exploring its suppressive effects on LPS induced IL-8 production in HT29-19A cell line.

Abstract
The genus of Pistacia plant systematically fits into the family of Anacardiaceae. Pistachios contain protein, carbohydrate, dietary fibers, fat, folic acid, vitamin K, magnesium and potassium, gama-tocopherols, phytochemicals, and polyphenols. Collectively, these constituents have been shown to possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions to improve overall health when consumed as a healthy diet. We searched the following keywords within the literature databases: pistachio, heart disorders, lipids, weight, antioxidants, and allergy. Further searching theses keywords, we have found 50 articles in PubMed, 40 articles in ISI web of knowledge and 30 articles in Google Scholar. We have selected 100 articles, among them 80 articles were used as the references of this review. In the current article, we have discussed the most recent data published regarding the regulatory effects of pistachios on several clinical states such as heart related disorders, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, vascular stiffness and endothelial and gut functions, weight management, glucose metabolism, kidney function and finally allergies.

Abstract
Irregular and long time work schedules not only makes people feel fatigue, but also brings great risks of diseases, due to gastrointestinal disorder and immune dysfunction. Therefore, it has positive significance to help challenged people stay energetic and healthy with food supplement. Konjac oligosaccharide has shown various physiological benefits and been recommended in the fortification of functional foods. However, there have been few reports on its application aimed to simultaneously relieve physical fatigue and keep body healthy. In this paper, the potential prebiotic, immunoregulatory, and antifatigue activities of konjac oligosaccharide were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that konjac oligosaccharide could promote probiotics growth and short chain fatty acids production in mice cecum. At the concentration of 50 to 200 μg/mL, konjac oligosaccharide could activate murine macrophage RAW 264.7 to secret NO and cytokines of IL-10 and IL-6. Moreover, this oligosaccharide could alleviate physical fatigue by prolonging exhaustive time, improving the level of superoxide dismutases and glutathione peroxidase, increasing the content of blood glucose, and decreasing the content of blood urea nitrogen. The results suggested that konjac oligosaccharide had prebiotic, immunoregulatory, and antifatigue effects, providing its application potential in functional food aimed at people with irregular and long time work.

Abstract
Hericium erinaceus (HE) is a well-known edible and medicinal fungus widely grown in Asian countries. Polysaccharides from the Hericium erinaceus (HEP) are major biological macromolecules. It has been reported that HEP has multiple biological activities, such as antioxidant activity, immunomodulatory effects, anti-inflammatory effect, anti-chronic gastritis activity, and so on. In the current study, we investigated the biological property of HEP during gastrointestinal digestion. The results indicated that both simulated gastric and small intestinal digesta of HEP has better stimulation of probiotics growth than HEP alone, especially for Lactobacillus plantarum BG112. The prebiotic activity was the strongest when HEP was treated by simulated gastric juice for 2 h and by simulated small intestinal juice for 4 h. The molecular weight (Mw) of HEP decreased from 1.68 × 10⁶ Da and 2.32 × 10⁴ Da to 529.3 ± 7.2 Da, as digestion time increased. Meanwhile, the reducing sugar content was significantly increased from 0.610 ± 0.007 to 22.698 ± 0.752 mg/ml, suggesting that the decrease of Mw was likely due to the breakdown of glycosidic bonds. Considerable mannose and galactopyranose were released throughout the gastrointestinal digestion period, indicating that the gastrointestinal digestion resulted in production of free monosaccharides. After fermentation of L. plantarum BG112, the Mw of HEP was decreased and short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) including acetic acid, isovaleric acid, lactic acid, and butyric acid were produced. We speculated that the release of free monosaccharides during gastrointestinal digestion and utilization of HEP, by the probiotics, contributed to the prebiotic activity of HEP's gastric and intestinal digesta. These results unveiled some mechanisms on the close relationship between the structure and bioactivity of polysaccharides, during digestion.

Abstract
This study aimed to optimize the suitable drying method to obtain high yield of polysaccharides from mulberry leaves and to determine their structural characterization and antioxidant activities. The effects of three different drying methods such as air dried, hot air dried (55 °C, 65 °C & 75 °C) and freeze dried on the physicochemical and antioxidant properties of mulberry leaves polysaccharides were studied using gas chromatography, high performance gel permeation chromatography, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron micrography and antioxidant assays. Results revealed that pre-treatment remarkably influenced the changes in their physicochemical and antioxidant properties. In comparison with the other drying techniques, freeze dried polysaccharides showed more rough morphologies and significant antioxidant property. The yield of polysaccharides from the freeze dried sample was about 28.88% higher than the yield of hot air dried sample. The MDA activity of freeze dried sample was about 95.45%. Overall, the results suggested that the freeze drying technique was the appropriate method to extract polysaccharides from mulberry leaves that offered significant biological properties.
