Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 263:130315. [PMID: 38382782 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130315] [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: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024]
Abstract
Dendrobium officinale (Tie-Pi-Shi-Hu) is a precious traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The principal active components are polysaccharides (DOP), which have a high potency in therapeutic applications. However, limitations in structure analysis and underlying mechanism investigation impede its further research. This review systemically and critically summarises current understanding in both areas, and points out the influence of starch impurities and the role of gut microbiota in DOP research. As challenges faced in studying natural polysaccharide investigations are common, this review contributes to a broader understanding of polysaccharides beyond DOP.

Abstract
With the development of gut microbiota-specific interventions for mental disorders, the interactions between plant polysaccharides and microbiota in the intestinal and their consequent effects are becoming increasingly important. In this review, we discussed the role of plant polysaccharides in improving various mental disorders via the microbiota-gut-brain axis. The chemical and structural characteristics and metabolites of these plant polysaccharides were summarised. Plant polysaccharides and their metabolites have great potential for reshaping gut microbiota profiles through gut microbiota-dependent fermentation. Along the microbiota-gut-brain axis, the consequent pharmacological processes that lead to the elimination of the symptoms of mental disorders include 1) regulation of the central monoamine neurotransmitters, amino acid transmitters and cholinergic signalling system; 2) alleviation of central and peripheral inflammation mainly through the NLRP3/NF-κB-related signalling pathway; 3) inhibition of neuronal apoptosis; and 4) enhancement of antioxidant activities. According to this review, monosaccharide glucose and structure -4-α-Glcp-(1→ are the most potent compositions of the most reported plant polysaccharides. However, the causal structure-activity relationship remains to be extensively explored. Moreover, mechanistic elucidation, safety verification, and additional rigorous human studies are expected to advance plant polysaccharide-based product development targeting the microbiota-gut-brain axis for people with mental disorders.

The physicochemical characteristics and antidepressant-like effects of a polysaccharide-rich fraction from Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill in behavioral despair mice and olfactory bulbectomy-induced depression-like mice. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 320:117464. [PMID: 37992879 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2023] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The dried fruit of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill (S. chinensis) is widely used in treating central nervous system disorders. Increasing evidence has suggested that alcohol-soluble extracts and lignans from S. chinensis could significantly ameliorate depression-like behaviors in animal models, while there was little research on the potential of alcohol-insoluble polysaccharides as a candidate in the treatment of depression. AIM OF THE STUDY Our research was designed to explore both the physicochemical characteristics and antidepressant-like effects of an alcohol-insoluble polysaccharide-rich fraction named SCP from S. chinensis. Simultaneously, the underlying mechanisms were elucidated in the study. MATERIALS AND METHODS The physicochemical characteristics were accomplished by colorimetric assays, CE, HPGPC, and FT-IR. Behavioral despair testing accompanied by LAT were processed to promptly assess the antidepressant-like effects of SCP in mice. Then OBX-induced mice were established to explore the impacts of chronic co-treatments with SCP. Furthermore, effects of SCP on the HPA axis, oxidant/antioxidant system, neurotrophic and synaptic factors, and gut microbiota in OBX-induced mice were detected through ELISA and 16S rDNA (V3 + V4 regions) gene sequencing. RESULTS SCP is a polysaccharide-rich fraction mainly comprised of xylose, glucose, rhamnose, galactose, mannose, and galacturonic acid in ratios of 0.27, 5.09, 0.24, 1.00, 0.63, and 2.86, of which the MW distribution ranges from 681 to 3232 Da. Acute pre-treatment with SCP (200 mg/kg, i.g.) remarkably reduced mice's immobility in the FST without motor stimulation. Prolonged pre-treatments effectively enhanced the effects of SCP on the behavioral despair testing in mice. Chronic co-treatments with SCP (50, 200, and 800 mg/kg, i.g.) could ameliorate the slow increase of body weight and behavioral abnormality of OBX-induced mice in systemic behavioral testing. SCP (200 mg/kg) also successfully restored hyperactivity of the HPA axis, oxidative damage in the liver, neurotrophic disturbance and abnormal synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus, and dysregulation of gut microbiota in OBX-induced mice. CONCLUSION SCP exerts noteworthy antidepressant-like impacts on behavioral despair mice and OBX-induced mice via multiple targets, indicating a potential therapeutic candidate in depression therapy.

Abstract
Depression is a prevalent mental disorder. However, clinical treatment options primarily based on chemical drugs have demonstrated varying degrees of adverse reactions and drug resistance, including somnolence, nausea, and cognitive impairment. Therefore, the development of novel antidepressant medications that effectively reduce suffering and side effects has become a prominent area of research. Polysaccharides are bioactive compounds extracted from natural plants that possess diverse pharmacological activities and medicinal values. It has been discovered that polysaccharides can effectively mitigate depression symptoms. This paper provides an overview of the pharmacological action and mechanisms, intervention approaches, and experimental models regarding the antidepressant effects of polysaccharides derived from various natural sources. Additionally, we summarize the roles and potential mechanisms through which these polysaccharides prevent depression by regulating neurotransmitters, HPA axis, neurotrophic factors, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, tryptophan metabolism, and gut microbiota. Natural plant polysaccharides hold promise as adjunctive antidepressants for prevention, reduction, and treatment of depression by exerting their therapeutic effects through multiple pathways and targets. Therefore, this review aims to provide scientific evidence for developing polysaccharide resources as effective antidepressant drugs.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic and recurrent disease. Increasing evidence suggests a higher incidence of depression in IBD patients compared with the general population, but the underlying mechanism remains uncertain. Rattan pepper polysaccharide (RPP) is an important active ingredient of rattan pepper, yet its effects and mechanisms on intestinal inflammation and depression-like behavior remain largely unknown. This study aims to investigate the ameliorating effect of RPP on dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS)-induced intestinal inflammation and depression-like behavior as well as to reveal its mechanism. Our results indicate that RPP effectively ameliorated intestinal microbiota imbalance and metabolic disorders of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and bile acids in mice with DSS-induced inflammation, contributing to the recovery of intestinal Th17/Treg homeostasis. Importantly, RPP effectively alleviated brain inflammation caused by intestinal inflammatory factors entering the brain through the blood-brain barrier. This effect may be attributed to the inhibition of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway, which alleviates neuroinflammation, and the activation of the CREB/BDNF signaling pathway, which improves synaptic dysfunction. Therefore, our findings suggest that RPP may play a role in alleviating DSS-induced gut inflammation and depression-like behavior through the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Abstract
Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOPs) are important active polysaccharides found in Dendrobium officinale, which is commonly used as a conventional food or herbal medicine and is well known in China. DOPs can influence the composition of the gut microbiota and the degradation capacity of these symbiotic bacteria, which in turn may determine the efficacy of dietary interventions. However, the necessary analysis of the relationship between DOPs and the gut microbiota is lacking. In this review, we summarize the extraction, structure, health benefits, and related mechanisms of DOPs, construct the DOPs-host axis, and propose that DOPs are potential prebiotics, mainly composed of 1,4-β-D-mannose, 1,4-β-D-glucose, and O-acetate groups, which induce an increase in the abundance of gut microbiota such as Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Akkermansia, Bacteroides, and Prevotella. In addition, we found that when exposed to DOPs with different structural properties, the gut microbiota may exhibit different diversity and composition and provide health benefits, such as metabolism regulations, inflammation modulation, immunity moderation, and cancer intervention. This may contribute to facilitating the development of functional foods and health products to improve human health.

Abstract
Polysaccharides extracted from Dendrobium officinale have various physiological effects. In this study, we used D-galactose-induced senescent mice as an animal model to investigate the inhibitory effects of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide (DOP) on oxidative damage in glial cells by attenuating oxidative stress and modulating the gut microbiota. The results showed that DOP significantly alleviated the activation of glial cells, increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduced the MDA content in senescent mice. In addition, DOP reshaped the disordered gut microbiota, decreased the abundance ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes and increased the abundance of beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus. DOP may reverse the gut microbiota disturbance and alleviate the oxidative damage of glial cells, therefore exert potential neuroprotective effects by modulating gut microbiota.

Abstract
Dendrobium officinale has anti-inflammatory effects and is one of the well-known functional foods. Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide (DOP) can reduce intestinal barrier disruption and excessive inflammatory response by regulating intestinal bacterial homeostasis as well as short-chain fatty acid levels. It can also inhibit the activation of astrocytes and microglia, further realizing the protective effect on neuronal apoptosis and apoptosis, thus exerting a significant alleviating effect on neurological diseases. There is now evidence that bidirectional communication between the central nervous system and the gastrointestinal tract may influence human neurology, cognition and behavior via the gut-brain axis. In this review, we review the structural characterization, bioactivity and possible bioactive mechanisms of DOP, so as to elucidate the advantages of DOP's action on CNS diseases, with the aim of providing new perspectives for its drug and functional food development as well as clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Depression is one of the most serious mental illnesses worldwide that endangers the health of people. The pathogenesis of depression is complex and is associated with abnormal neurotransmitter levels, activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, inflammation, and gut flora-related disorders. However, most of the current pharmacological therapies used to manage depression are inconsistent and are associated with side effects. Owing to their low toxicity and wide availability in nature, polysaccharides are gradually attracting attention and are being discovered to exert direct or indirect antidepressant effects. PURPOSE In this review, we have summarized the classification, dosage, and experimental models to study polysaccharides with antidepressant effects obtained from different sources. We have also reviewed the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of these polysaccharides in depression by modulating inflammation, the HPA axis, and intestinal flora. METHODS We searched the PubMed, Web of Science, and Google scholar databases and included studies that reported the use of polysaccharides in treating depression. RESULTS The unique benefits of natural polysaccharides as antidepressants lie in their potential to modulate inflammation, regulate the HPA axis, and regulate intestinal flora, giving full play to their antidepressant effects via multiple pathways and targets. CONCLUSION Natural polysaccharides may be a promising resource for use as adjuvant antidepressant therapy. Our study might therefore provide evidence for the development of polysaccharide resources as antidepressants.

Abstract
Dendrobium officinale is widely used as a health supplement, but its specific impact on healthy gut microbiota has not yet been clarified, nor has its impact on different human genders. To overcome the problems mentioned above. DOP was extracted and purified with an 8000–12,000 Da dialysis bag. The molecular weight and monosaccharide composition were determined using HPGPC and GC. Gas chromatography was used to detect the content of SCFA. 16S rDNA sequencing was used to analyze the diversity of human microbiota. The results showed that DOP contained two fractions, with an average molecular weight of 277 kDa and 1318 Da, and mainly composed of mannose and glucose. DOP can increase the relative abundance of benign microbiota and decrease the harmful types. Propionic acid content in women was significantly increased after DOP treatment. Finally, the correlation analysis revealed that DOP was beneficial to the microbiota of both men and women. It can be concluded from the results that DOP is a health supplement suitable for humans, and especially women.
