Therapeutic Application of Dendrobium fimbriatum Hook for Retinopathy Caused by Ultraviolet Radiation and Chemotherapy Using ARPE-19 Cells and Mouse Retina. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:617. [PMID: 38475464 DOI: 10.3390/plants13050617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
Retinopathy caused by ultraviolet radiation and cancer chemotherapy has increased dramatically in humans due to rapid environmental and social changes. Therefore, it is very important to develop therapeutic strategies to effectively alleviate retinopathy. In China, people often choose dendrobium to improve their eyesight. In this study, we explored how Dendrobium fimbriatum extract (DFE) protects ARPE-19 cells and mouse retinal tissue from damage of ultraviolet (UV) radiation and chemotherapy. We evaluated the antioxidant capacity of DFE using the 1,1-diphenyl-2-trinitophenylhydrazine (DPPH) assay. The protective effects of DEF from UV- and oxaliplatin (OXA)-induced damage were examined in ARPE-19 cells using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and immunofluorescence (IF) stains, and in mouse retinal tissue using immunohistochemistry (IHC) stains. Our results show that DFE has excellent antioxidant capacity. The ARPE-19 cell viability was decreased and the F-actin cytoskeleton structure was damaged by UV radiation and OXA chemotherapy, but both were alleviated after the DFE treatment. Furthermore, DFE treatment can alleviate OXA chemotherapy-induced reduced expressions of rhodopsin and SOD2 and increased expressions of TNF-α and caspase 3 in mouse retinal tissue. Thus, we suggest that DFE can act as suitable treatment for retinopathy through reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is known as a global health challenge with different types of health conditions such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, the increasing prevalence of obesity, and hyperlipidemia. Despite much recent scientific progress, the use of traditional herbal medicines with fewer side effects is increasing worldwide. Dendrobium, the second-largest orchid genus, has been used as a natural source of drugs for the treatment of MetS. The beneficial effects of Dendrobium, including anti-hypertension, anti-hyperglycemia, anti-obesity, and anti-hyperlipidemic against MetS have been shown in the scientific evidence. The anti-oxidant and lipid-lowering effects of Dendrobium modulate hyperlipidemia via reducing lipid accumulation and maintaining lipid metabolism. Restoring pancreatic beta cells and regulating the insulin signaling pathway are involved in its antidiabetic properties. The hypotensive effects contribute to increasing nitric oxide (NO) generation and inhibiting extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling. More research projects, especially clinical trials, are needed to investigate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of Dendrobium in patients. This review article provides, for the first time, comprehensive information about the efficacy of different species of Dendrobium. The described species can be a source of medicines for the treatment of MetS, which are reported in various evidence.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the structure characteristics Lonicera flos polysaccharides (LP) and the protective effects of LP on cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression in mice. The results showed the yield and purity of LP was 1.41% and 94.15%, the molecular weight was 53 kDa, and composed of arabinose, rhamnose, ribose, xylose, mannose, fructose, galactose and glucose; and LP had typical polysaccharide structural characteristics via ultraviolet and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. Furthermore, LP obviously alleviated the injury of spleen and thymus; significantly promoted Interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), immunoglobulin (IgA, IgG and IgM) secretion; and improved the richness of gut microbiota and the contents of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in immunosuppressive mice. Taken together, these results suggested that LP possessed strong protective effect on cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression in mice via modulating gut microbiota.

Abstract
The ameliorative effect of Dendrobium fimbriatum polysaccharide (cDFPW1) on ulcerative colitis (UC) was investigated using a dextran-sodium-sulfate-induced (DSS-induced) mouse model in the present study. The results showed that cDFPW1 effectively improved colitis in mice by ameliorating weight loss, disease activity index (DAI) and colonic pathological damage, and by protecting the intestinal barrier function integrity. Moreover, cDFPW1 modulated the composition and metabolism of intestinal microbiota through enhancing Romboutsia, Lactobacillus and Odoribacter, and reducing Parasutterella, Burkholderia-Caballeronia-Paraburkholderia and Acinetobacter in colitis mice. Notably, cDFPW1 significantly restored the homeostasis of Th17/regulatory T (Treg) cells and the expression of specific cytokines. Western blotting of colon tissues showed that cDFPW1 markedly up-regulated the expression of Nrf2 and inhibited the phosphorylation of NF-κB signaling. These results indicated that cDFPW1 possesses the potential of improving UC and its effect on palliating colitis may be connected with the regulation of Nrf2/NF-κB signaling.

Abstract
Spiranthes sinensis (S. sinensis), a species of orchid, is a well-known herb medicine used to treat disorders such as stomachache, diabetes, shingles, and certain inflammatory diseases. Presently, the antioxidant activity of S. sinensis as well as its protective effect on UVB-induced skin injury are unclear. In this study, S. sinensis was extracted with boiling water or 75% (v/v) ethanol, and then its antioxidant composition and antioxidant activity were determined. The protective effects of S. sinensis against UVB-induced damage in human skin fibroblasts (CCD-966SK) were also investigated. Our data showed that the extraction yield of boiling water was higher than that of 75% ethanol. However, compared to the aqueous extracts, the ethanol extracts not only had higher phenolic, flavonoid, and condensed tannin contents, but also exhibited higher free radical scavenging activity, higher reducing power, and higher ferrous ion-chelating capacity. When fibroblasts were pre-cultured with the water or ethanol extracts of S. sinensis (1500 μg/mL) for 24 h before applying UVB irradiation, the S. sinensis extracts restored 17% to 27% of cell viability compared to a control only irradiated with UVB. Overall, our study suggests that S. sinensis extracts can be used as effective antioxidants and have the potential to protect skin fibroblasts from UVB irradiation.

Abstract
A new polysaccharide (cDFP-W1) with high immunostimulatory activities was isolated from the stems of Dendrobium fimbriatum Hook. The analysis of the physicochemical properties showed that cDFP-W1 consisted of mannose and glucose in a molar ratio of 1 : 3.84, and its relative molecular weight was 4.0 × 104 Da. Structural analysis implied that the linear backbone of cDFP-W1 was composed of α-1,4-d-Glcp, β-1,4-d-Manp, 3-O-acetyl-α-1,4-d-Glcp and α-1,4,6-d-Glcp, and its branches were the terminal β-d-Manp that was attached to the C-6 position of α-1,4,6-d-Glcp. An in vivo immunostimulatory assay exhibited that cDFP-W1 at 200 mg kg-1 could significantly increase the proportions of CD4+ T-cell subpopulations, B cells, natural killer cells and dendritic cells, decrease the proportion of CD8+ T-cell subpopulations, and upregulate the percentage of activated macrophages (p < 0.01) in the spleen of mice. An in vitro immunostimulatory assay revealed that cDFP-W1 could effectively promote the proliferation of spleen lymphocytes, enhance the proliferation and phagocytosis of macrophage RAW264.7 cells, and stimulate the mRNA expression and extracellular release of NO, TNF-α and IL-1β of RAW264.7 cells. The western blot experiment suggested that the immunostimulatory activities of cDFP-W1 were closely related to the activation of MAPKs, NF-κB and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways.

Abstract
Dendrobium, orchid, is a traditional Chinese herb medicine applied extensively as tonic and precious food for thou-sands of years recorded in ancient Chinese medical book "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". It's well known that bioactivities are usually related to the ingredients' basis. Based on the previous research, Dendrobium species contain amino acid, sesquiterpenoids, alkaloids and polysaccharides. As the bioactive substances, carbohydrate shows extensive activities in antitumor, antiglycation, immune-enhancing, antivirus, antioxidant, antitumor and etc. Therefore, as the main biologically active substance, the exact structures and latent activities of polysaccharides from Dendrobium species are widely focused on. In this review, we focus on the advancements of extraction methods and diversity of structures and bioactivities of polysaccharides obtained from Dendrobium species.

Abstract
This is an extensive review on epiphytic plants that have been used traditionally as medicines. It provides information on 185 epiphytes and their traditional medicinal uses, regions where Indigenous people use the plants, parts of the plants used as medicines and their preparation, and their reported phytochemical properties and pharmacological properties aligned with their traditional uses. These epiphytic medicinal plants are able to produce a range of secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, and a total of 842 phytochemicals have been identified to date. As many as 71 epiphytic medicinal plants were studied for their biological activities, showing promising pharmacological activities, including as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer agents. There are several species that were not investigated for their activities and are worthy of exploration. These epipythes have the potential to furnish drug lead compounds, especially for treating cancers, and thus warrant indepth investigations.

Abstract
In order to improve the hydrophilicity and immune activity of the polysaccharide from Dendrobium nobile Lindl., non-thermal plasma was used to treat the polysaccharide. It was found that the hydrophilicity of the polysaccharide plasma-treated was significantly enhanced. Infrared spectra showed that the content of OH in the molecule increased significantly, and the monosaccharide ring changed from β-pyran sugar to β-furan sugar. The detection of SEM, AFM and TEM showed that the degree of cross-linking of surface molecules increased, and the arrangement of the polysaccharide was more compact and orderly. In vitro cell tests showed that the polysaccharide plasma-treated significantly improve the phagocytosis ability of RAW264.7, and promote the secretion of cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1. However, the cell proliferation test indicated that the polysaccharide did not increase the concentration of cytokines by promoting cell proliferation. RT-PCR showed that the polysaccharide plasma-treated could promote the expression of IL-1β at the transcriptional level. These results showed that non-thermal plasma treatment can effectively enhance the hydrophilicity of the polysaccharide and enhance its immune activity in vitro. Therefore, it can be inferred that the non-thermal plasma technology can be applied to the modification of active polysaccharides and will promote active polysaccharides to work better.

Abstract
The crude polysaccharide was extracted from Grateloupia lithophila through hot-water extraction and deproteinization. Further, fractionated by anion-exchange column using Q-Sepharose and purified by gel-permeation chromatography using Sepharose 4-LB column. The crude and purified polysaccharide contains high carbohydrate (75.7 and 89.7%), ash (18.2 and 3.2%) and moisture (14.8 and 1.3%); the protein and uronic acid were absent. The molecular weight of crude, fractionated and purified polysaccharide was found to be 37 kDa, 29 kDa and 24 kDa. The monosaccharide composition of the crude polysaccharide was found to be having rhamnose (79.82%), fructose (8.38%), galactose (3.95%), xylose (3.31%) and glucose (1.48%); whereas the purified polysaccharide reported higher amount of rhamnose (95.88%), 1.13% of xylose and 2.21% of fructose. The structural elucidation of the purified polysaccharide was conformed as α-l-rhamnose through polarimetry, FT-IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy.

The Cantharellus cibarius Fr. polysaccharide (CC-1) had a molecular weight of 61,056 kDa and was mainly formed of the glucose and xylose at ratio of 5:1. Structure identification of CC-1 was analysed by a combined application of total hydrolysis, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), methylation analysis, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), infrared (IR) spectra and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The experimental results showed that CC-1 had a backbone of 1,4-linked-β-D-glucose which branched at O-6 and the branches were mainly composed of 6→1)-α-D-xylopyranose residue. CC-1 exhibited significant in vitro antioxidant effect and proliferation effect of immune cells. The activity study showed CC-1 has ability to clear the ABTS+ free radical and DPPH− free radical in a certain range of concentration. The proliferation activity of the immune cells showed that the proliferation effect on B cells was very significant (P<0.001) in the concentration of 0.625–80 mg/ml; and the effect of T cell proliferation was also very significant (P<0.001) in the concentration of 5–20 mg/ml. The result of this study introduced Cantharellus cibarius Fr. as a possible valuable source in exhibiting unique immunoregulatory and antioxidant properties.

Abstract
The sulfated galactans (SG) of mass 16 kDa was purified from S.hypnoides through anion exchange and gel permeation chromatography. The biochemical properties of SG including carbohydrate, 3,6 anhydrogalactose, sulfate, uronic acid, moisture, ash, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen contents were estimated. In the purified SG, the presence of major sugars such as galactose and glucose were identified through HPLC and it was further structurally characterised through FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy. Anticoagulant activity of SG was estimated as 25.36 & 2.46 IU at 25 μg/ml (aPTT & PT). SG also showed potential dose dependent antioxidant activity against free radicals such as DPPH (56.41% at 2 mg/ml), hydroxyl radicals (65.58% at 3 mg/ml) and superoxide radicals (73.12% at 0.6 mg/ml). The maximum metal chelating and total antioxidant property (76.42%, 66.81%) was exhibited at 1 mg/ml. The results indicate that the SG from red seaweed represents a good source of polysaccharide with significant anticoagulant and antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Dendrobium represents one of the most important orchid genera, ornamentally and medicinally. Dendrobiums are sympodial epiphytic plants, which is a name they are worthy of, the name coming from Greek origin: "dendros", tree, and "bios", life. Dendrobium species have been used for a thousand years as first-rate herbs in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). They are source of tonic, astringent, analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory substances, and have been traditionally used as medicinal herbs in the treatment of a variety of disorders, such as, nourishing the stomach, enhancing production of body fluids or nourishing Yin. The Chinese consider Dendrobium as one of the fifty fundamental herbs used to treat all kinds of ailments and use Dendrobium tonic for longevity. This review is focused on main research conducted during the last decade (2006-2016) on Dendrobium plants and their constituents, which have been subjected to investigations of their pharmacological effects involving anticancer, anti-diabetic, neuroprotective and immunomodulating activities, to report their undeniable potential for treating age-related pathologies.

Abstract
A polysaccharide DOTP-80 from Dioscorea opposita Thunb was obtained by using the method of acid water-extraction and ethanol-precipitation. After being purified by chromatography, the structure characteristics of DOTP-80 were established. Based on the calibration curve obtained with standard dextrans, the molecular weight of the polysaccharide fraction DOTP-80 was calculated to be 123 kDa. The results of Infrared spectrum (FT-IR) indicated that the polysaccharide contained the α-configuration of sugar units. GC-MS analysis revealed that DOTP-80 was mainly composed of mannose and glucose. Alloxan-induced diabetic rats and mice models were developed to evaluate the in vivo hypoglycemic activity of the polysaccharide. The results indicated that a high dose DOTP-80 (400 mg/kg) had strong hypoglycemic activity. Moreover, DOTP-80 could increase the level of antioxidant enzymes (SOD) activity in alloxan-induced diabetic mice and stimulate an increase in glucose disposal in diabetic rats. Therefore, the polysaccharide DOTP-80 should be evaluated as a candidate for future studies on diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
The present study described the characterization and biological properties of water‑soluble sulfated polysaccharides prepared from water‑insoluble polysaccharide (DIP), which were extracted from Dictyophora indusiata. The sulfation of DIP was performed using the chlorosulfonic acid‑pyridine method. The water solubilities of the sulfated derivatives were measured at room temperature according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. The scavenging activity of hydroxyl radicals and 1,1‑diphenyl‑2‑picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) as determined, together with the reduction ability of the sulfated polysaccharides. The cytotoxic and antiproliferative effects of DIP and the sulfated derivatives on MCF‑7 and B16 cells were then determined using an MTT assay. The substitution degrees of the sulfated polysaccharides were 0.584 (S1‑DIP), 0.989 (S2‑DIP) and 1.549 (S3‑DIP) according to barium chloride‑gelatin nephelometry. Infrared spectroscopy and 13C‑nuclear magnetic resonance indicated that the substitution of S‑DIP occurred mainly at the C‑6 position, followed by the C‑4 and C‑2 positions. A significant increase was noted in the antioxidant activity of the sulfated derivatives compared with that of DIP. In addition, the S‑DIPs exhibited a more marked reducing capacity and clearing activity of hydroxyl radicals and DPPH. This indicated that the antioxidant capacity of the polysaccharides was significantly higher following sulfation. Furthermore, in in vitro cell investigations, DIP exhibited no inhibitory effects on the growth of the B16 or MCF‑7 tumor cells. However, the sulfated derivatives exerted marked inhibitory effects on these cell lines. Sulfate modification may therefore contribute to an improvement in water solubility and in the antioxidant and antitumor activities of natural DIP.

Abstract
A water-soluble polysaccharide (BEBP) was extracted from Boletus edulis Bull using hot water extraction followed by ethanol precipitation. The polysaccharide BEBP was further purified by chromatography on a DEAE-cellulose column, giving three major polysaccharide fractions termed BEBP-1, BEBP-2 and BEBP-3. In the next experiment, the average molecular weight (Mw), IR and monosaccharide compositional analysis of the three polysaccharide fractions were determined. The evaluation of antioxidant activities both in vitro and in vivo suggested that BEBP-3 had good potential antioxidant activity, and should be explored as a novel potential antioxidant.
