Abstract
Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is constituted of the hCGα and hCGβ subunits and is a highly glycosylated protein. Affinity supports based on immobilized Concanavalin A (Con A) lectin were used in solid phase extraction (SPE) to fractionate the hCG glycoforms according to their glycosylation state. For the first time, the lectin SPE fractions were off-line analysed by a nano liquid chromatography - high-resolution mass spectrometry (nanoLC-HRMS) method keeping the glycoforms intact. For this, home-made Con A sorbents were prepared by immobilizing lectin on Sepharose with a mean grafting yield of 98.2% (relative standard deviation (RSD) of 3.5%, n = 15). A capacity of about 100 μg of purified urinary hCG (uhCG) per ml of sorbent, grafted with a density of 10 mg of Con A per ml, was estimated. Average extraction yields of around 60% for both hCGα and hCGβ glycoforms were obtained after optimization of the extraction protocol. Intra- and inter-assay evaluation led to average RSD values of around 10%, indicating a repeatable extraction procedure. Similar results were obtained with commercial Con A-based sorbents but only after their 3rd use or after an extensive pre-conditioning step. Finally, the Con A SPE led to the fractionation of some glycoforms of uhCG, allowing the detection of an hCGα glycoform with two tetra-antennary N-glycans that couldn't be detected by direct analysis in nanoLC-HRMS without Con A SPE. Regarding a recombinant hCG, a fractionation was also observed leading to the detection of unretained hCGα glycoforms with tri-antennary N-glycans. Therefore, the combination of lectin SPE with intact protein analysis by nanoLC-HRMS can contribute to a more detailed glycosylation characterization of the hCG protein.

Abstract
RATIONALE The application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) to murine lungs is challenging due to the spongy nature of the tissue. Lungs consist of interconnected air sacs (alveoli) lined by a single layer of flattened epithelial cells, which requires inflation to maintain its natural structure. Therefore, a protocol that is compatible with both lung instillation and high spatial resolution is essential to enable multi-omic studies on murine lung disease models using MALDI-MSI. METHODS AND RESULTS To maintain the structural integrity of the tissue, murine lungs were inflated with 8% (w/v) gelatin for lipid MSI of fresh frozen tissues or 4% (v/v) paraformaldehyde neutral buffer for N-glycan and peptide MSI of FFPE tissues. Tissues were sectioned and prepared for enzymatic digestion and/or matrix deposition. Glycerol-free PNGase F was applied for N-glycan MSI, while Trypsin Gold was applied for peptide MSI using the iMatrixSpray and ImagePrep Station, respectively. For lipid, N-glycan and peptide MSI, α-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid matrix was deposited using the iMatrixSpray. MS data were acquired with 20 μm spatial resolution using a timsTOF fleX MS instrument followed by MS fragmentation of lipids, N-glycans and peptides. For lipid MSI, trapped ion mobility spectrometry was used to separate isomeric/isobaric lipid species. SCiLS™ Lab was used to visualize all MSI data. For analyte identification, MetaboScape®, GlycoMod and Mascot were used to annotate MS fragmentation spectra of lipids, N-glycans and tryptic peptides, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our protocol provides instructions on sample preparation for high spatial resolution MALDI-MSI, MS/MS data acquisition and lipid, N-glycan and peptide annotation and identification from murine lungs. This protocol will allow non-biased analyses of diseased lungs from preclinical murine models and provide further insight into disease models.

Abstract
Endo-xylanase and endo-glucanase are supplemented to poultry diets in order to improve nutrient digestion and non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) fermentation. Here, the action of these enzymes on alcohol insoluble solids (AIS) from wheat and maize grains as well as its implications for starch digestion in milled grains were evaluated in vitro, under conditions mimicking the poultry digestive tract. For wheat AIS, GH11 endo-xylanase depolymerized soluble arabinoxylan (AX) during the gizzard phase, and proceeded to release insoluble AX under small intestine conditions. At the end of the in vitro digestion (480 min), the endo-xylanase, combined with a GH7 endo-β-1,4-glucanase, released 30.5 % of total AX and 18.1 % of total glucan in the form of arabinoxylo- and gluco-oligosaccharides, as detected by HPAEC-PAD and MALDI-TOF-MS. For maize AIS, the combined enzyme action released 2.2 % and 7.0 % of total AX and glucan, respectively. Analogous in vitro digestion experiments of whole grains demonstrated that the enzymatic release of oligomers coincided with altered grain microstructure, as examined by SEM. In the present study, cell wall hydrolysis did not affect in vitro starch digestion kinetics for cereal grains. This study contributes to understanding the action of feed enzymes on cereal NSP under conditions mimicking the poultry digestive tract.

Abstract
The number of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is growing rapidly due to their widespread use for treating various diseases and health conditions. Assessing the glycosylation profile of mAbs during production is essential to ensuring their safety and efficacy. This research aims to rapidly isolate and digest mAbs for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) identification of glycans and monitoring of glycosylation patterns, potentially during manufacturing. Immobilization of an Fc region-specific ligand, oFc20, in a porous membrane enables the enrichment of mAbs from cell culture supernatant and efficient elution with an acidic solution. Subsequent digestion of the mAb eluate occurred in a pepsin-modified membrane within 5 min. The procedure does not require alkylation and desalting, greatly shortening the sample preparation time. Subsequent LC-MS/MS analysis identified 11 major mAb N-glycan proteoforms and assessed the relative peak areas of the glycosylated peptides. This approach is suitable for the glycosylation profiling of various human IgG mAbs, including biosimilars and different IgG subclasses. The total time required for this workflow is less than 2 h, whereas the conventional enzymatic release and labeling of glycans can take much longer. Thus, the integrated membranes are suitable for facilitating the analysis of mAb glycosylation patterns.

Abstract
The evolution of land flora was an epochal event in the history of planet Earth. The success of plants, and especially flowering plants, in colonizing all but the most hostile environments required multiple mechanisms of adaptation. The mainly polysaccharide-based cell walls of flowering plants, which are indispensable for water transport and structural support, are one of the most important adaptations to life on land. Thus, development of vasculature is regarded as a seminal event in cell wall evolution, but the impact of further refinements and diversification of cell wall compositions and architectures on radiation of flowering plant families is less well understood. We approached this from a glyco-profiling perspective and, using carbohydrate microarrays and monoclonal antibodies, studied the cell walls of 287 plant species selected to represent important evolutionary dichotomies and adaptation to a variety of habitats. The results support the conclusion that radiation of flowering plant families was indeed accompanied by changes in cell wall fine structure and that these changes can obscure earlier evolutionary events. Convergent cell wall adaptations identified by our analyses do not appear to be associated with plants with similar lifestyles but that are taxonomically distantly related. We conclude that cell wall structure is linked to phylogeny more strongly than to habitat or lifestyle and propose that there are many approaches of adaptation to any given ecological niche.

Abstract
N-glycans of therapeutic glycoproteins is a critical quality attribute to be addressed. We developed a sensitive method for N-glycan characterization using procainamide (ProcA) labelling and online solid phase extraction (online SPE). N-glycans were enzymatically released, then labeled with ProcA and cleaned up via the online SPE using HILIC chemistry (online HILIC SPE). Two preparation protocols were optimized: a short one (1 h 30) and a long one (18 h). Furthermore, the developed approach was compared to RapiFluor-MS (RFMS) kit (from Waters) and to InstantPC kit (from Agilent) which both include a classical HILIC μElution plate SPE purification. Samples were analyzed using HILIC separation coupled to fluorescence and MS detection (HILIC-FLD-MS) with or without the online HILIC SPE. During the validation, repeatability, intermediate precision, stability, response function and injection volume were tested. Human IgG mix (Multigam®) and NIST mAb standard were used as references as their glycoprofiles are well described. A comparison of three batches of a rituximab biosimilar (Truxima®) and one batch of its originator (MabThera®) was also performed. Online HILIC SPE sample cleanup shows a higher sensitivity and repeatability compared to the classical HILIC μElution SPE. Our online HILIC SPE approach also offers the highest MS signal compared to both commercial kits. However, InstantPC shows the highest FLD signal. The analyses of rituximab samples were in line with the literature showing the efficiency of the method for N-glycan monitoring of biotherapeutics. In conclusion, the results demonstrated the usefulness and ease of application of the developed protocol with the online HILIC SPE purification.

Abstract
Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) measurements of intact cell walls and cellular samples often generate spectra that are difficult to interpret due to the presence of many coexisting glycans and the structural polymorphism observed in native conditions. To overcome this analytical challenge, we present a statistical approach for analyzing carbohydrate signals using high-resolution ssNMR data indexed in a carbohydrate database. We generate simulated spectra to demonstrate the chemical shift dispersion and compare this with experimental data to facilitate the identification of important fungal and plant polysaccharides, such as chitin and glucans in fungi and cellulose, hemicellulose, and pectic polymers in plants. We also demonstrate that chemically distinct carbohydrates from different organisms may produce almost identical signals, highlighting the need for high-resolution spectra and validation of resonance assignments. Our study provides a means to differentiate the characteristic signals of major carbohydrates and allows us to summarize currently undetected polysaccharides in plants and fungi, which may inspire future investigations.

Abstract
A new polysaccharide (SPT1) was isolated from Sabia parviflora Wall. ex Roxb., and the structure was identified by GPC, 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, SEM and AFM. The results showed that the average molecular weight (Mn) of SPT1 was 4.057 × 103 Da, and it was composed of α-glucose with a connection mode of 1→6. The SEM showed that the particle size of SPT1 was 1-200 μm and there were small gaps between the crystals. SPT1 was mainly spherical aggregates in AFM, each aggregate was 0.550-0.983 μm long, 1.059-2.275 μm wide and 208-450 nm high. Furthermore, its liver-protective and PTP1B inhibitory activities were evaluated, and the results showed that SPT1 exhibited moderate effects of liver-protective and PTP1B inhibitory activity. The above results provided experimental evidence for the folk application of S. parviflora in the treatment of hepatitis.

Abstract
Morels (Morchella spp.), which are cultivated only in a few regions of the world, are edible mushrooms known for their various properties including antioxidation, immune regulation, antiinflammation, and antitumor effects. Polysaccharides from Morchella are principally responsible for its antioxidant activity. This paper reviews the extraction, purification, structural analysis and antioxidant activity of Morchella polysaccharides (MPs), providing updated research progress. Meanwhile, the structural-property relationships of MPs were further discussed. In addition, based on in vitro and in vivo studies, the major factors responsible for the antioxidant activity of MPs were summarized including scavenging free radicals, reduction capacity, inhibitory lipid peroxidation activity, regulating the signal transduction pathway, reducing the production of ROS and NO, etc. Finally, we hope that our research can provide a reference for further research and development of MPs.

Abstract
As a traditional Chinese medicinal and edible homologous plant, Onosma glomeratum Y. L. Liu has been used for treating lung diseases in Tibet. In this study, a pectin polysaccharide, OGY-LLPA, with a molecular weight of 62,184 Da, was isolated and characterized by GC-MS and NMR analysis. It mainly consists of galacturonic acid (GalA), galactose (Gal), rhamnose (Rha), and arabinose (Ara), with a linear main chain of galacturonic acid (homogalacturonan, HG) inserted by part of rhamnose galacturonic acid (rhamnogalacturonan, RG), attaching with arabinogalactan (AG) branches at RG-I. Both in the LPS-induced A549 cell model and LPS-induced pneumonia mouse model, OGY-LLPA demonstrated strong anti-inflammatory effects, even comparable to DEX, indicating its potential as an anti-pneumonia candidate agent. Moreover, low-dose OGY-LLPA alleviated LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway. Overall, these findings could not only contribute to the utilization of Onosma glomeratum Y. L. Liu., but also provides a theoretical basis for the treatment of inflammation-related diseases.

Abstract
Moraxella nonliquefaciens is a commensal of the human upper respiratory tract (URT) but on rare occasions is recovered in cases of ocular, septic and pulmonary infections. Hence there is interest in the pathogenic determinants of M. nonliquefaciens, of which outer membrane (OM) structures such as fimbriae and two capsular polysaccharide (CPS) structures, →3)-β-D-GalpNAc-(1→5)-β-Kdop-(2→ and →8)-α-NeuAc-(2→, have been reported in the literature. To further characterise its surface virulence factors, we isolated a novel CPS from M. nonliquefaciens type strain CCUG 348T. This structure was elucidated using NMR data obtained from CPS samples that were subjected to various degrees of mild acid hydrolysis. Together with GLC-MS data, the structure was resolved as a linear polymer composed of two GalfNAc residues consecutively added to Kdo, →3)-β-D-GalfNAc-(1→3)-α-D-GalfNAc-(1→5)-α-(8-OAc)Kdop-(2→. Supporting evidence for this material being CPS was drawn from the proposed CPS biosynthetic locus which encoded a potential GalfNAc transferase, a UDP-GalpNAc mutase for UDP-GalfNAc production and a putative CPS polymerase with predicted GalfNAc and Kdo transferase domains. This study describes a unique CPS composition reported in Moraxella spp. and offers genetic insights into the synthesis and expression of GalfNAc residues, which are rare in bacterial OM glycans.

Abstract
The structure of the K141 type capsular polysaccharide (CPS) produced by Acinetobacter baumannii KZ1106, a clinical isolate recovered from Kazakhstan in 2016, was established by sugar analyses and one- and two-dimensional 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. The CPS was shown to consist of branched tetrasaccharide repeating units (K-units) with the following structure: This structure was found to be consistent with the genetic content of the KL141 CPS biosynthesis gene cluster at the chromosomal K locus in the KZ1106 whole genome sequence. Assignment of the encoded enzymes allowed the first sugar of the K unit to be identified, which revealed that the β-d-GlcpNAc-(1→3)-d-GlcpNAc bond is the linkage between K-units formed by the WzyKL141 polymerase.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Laetiporus sulphureus has long been used as an edible and medicinal mushroom in Asia, America, and Europe. Its fruiting bodies are widely used in folk medicine for treating cancer, gastric diseases, cough, and rheumatism. Polysaccharides are an important bioactive component of mushrooms. In nature, sulfated polysaccharides have never been reported in mushrooms. Furthermore, there is no information on differences in physicochemical properties and anti-breast cancer activities between polysaccharides (PS) and sulfated polysaccharides (SPS) of L. sulphureus. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical properties of PS and SPS isolated from fruiting bodies of L. sulphureus and examine their anti-proliferative effects and mechanism(s) of action on MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. METHODS Polysaccharides (PS) were isolated using hot water and ethanol precipitation methods. Sulfated polysaccharides (SPS) were isolated by the papain-assisted hydrolysis method. Physicochemical properties comprising sugar, protein, uronic acid, and sulfate contents, and molecular weight, monosaccharide composition, and structural conformation were analyzed on PS and SPS. In the anti-cancer study, a triple-negative breast cancer cell line (MDA-MB-231) and a normal human mammary epithelial cell line (H184B5F5/M10) were used to evaluate the anti-proliferative activity of PS and SPS, and their mechanism(s) of action. RESULTS The results showed that SPS, which had higher sulfate and protein contents and diversified monosaccharide composition, exhibited more potent anti-proliferative activity against MDA-MB-231 cells than PS. Furthermore, it had a selective cytotoxic effect on breast cancer cells but not the normal cells. SPS induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase via down-regulating CDK4 and cyclin D1 and up-regulating p21 protein expression. Breast cancer cell apoptosis was not observed until 72 h after SPS treatment. In addition, SPS also markedly inhibited breast cancer cell migration. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that SPS exhibited selective cytotoxicity and was more potent than PS in inhibiting MDA-MB-231 cell proliferation. The contents of sulfate and protein, and monosaccharide composition could be the main factors affecting the anti-breast cancer activity of L. sulphureus SPS.

Abstract
This study identified a rhamnose-containing cell wall polysaccharide (RhaCWP) in an alkaline extract prepared to analyze intracellular polysaccharides (IPS) from Streptococcus mutans biofilm. IPS was an 1,4-α-D-glucan with branchpoints introduced by 1,6-α-glucan while RhaCWP presented 1,2-α-L-and 1,3-α-L rhamnose backbone and side chains connected by 1,2-α-D-glucans, as identified by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and methylation analyses. The MW of IPS and RhaCWP was 11,298 Da, as determined by diffusion-ordered NMR spectroscopy. Therefore, this study analyzed the chemical structure of RhaCWP and IPS from biofilm in a single fraction prepared via a convenient hot-alkali extraction method. This method could be a feasible approach to obtain such molecules and improve the comprehension of the structure-function relationships in polymers from S. mutans in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aberrant sialylation is closely associated with the tumorigenesis, progression, and metastasis, and may be of importance for disease diagnosis. However, the analysis of altered expression of sialylated glycans (SGs) in blood is particularly challenging due to the low content and poor ionization efficiency of sialylated glycans in mass spectrometry. METHODS An analytical strategy based on enrichment of SGs, liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometric detection, and automatic glycan annotation was developed to profile the sialylated N-glycome in serum. The enrichment of sialylated glycans was accomplished using cationic cotton via electrostatic and hydrogen interaction. Using partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), the approach was applied for nontarget screening and profiling of aberrant sialylated N-glycans in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). RESULTS 55 SGs were identified in human serum, and three important SGs (SG35, SG45, and SG46) were screened to have good diagnostic specificity for HCC. Their areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) were higher than α-fetoprotein (AFP)'s (AUC = 0.85), at 0.88, 0.87, and 0.91, respectively. When three SGs are combined, the diagnostic specificity for HCC may increase to 94 %. The fact that SGs biomarkers are sensitive to AFP-Negative HCC is very noteworthy. CONCLUSIONS The method significantly advanced the search for sialylated glycan-based cancer biomarkers. In comparison to traditional indicators like AFP and imaging tools, SGs showed a higher diagnostic sensitivity for HCC.

Abstract
The objectives of the present work were to explore film forming ability of mucilaginous polysaccharides obtained from Cassia uniflora seeds and improving its bioadhesive potential by thiolation for drug delivery and other applications. Thiolation was achieved by esterification reaction with thioglycolic acid. The modification was confirmed by performing and comparing its zeta potential, DSC, and spectrophotometric characterization by FTIR and NMR with unmodified mucilaginous polysaccharide. The modified mucilaginous polysaccharides FTIR spectra showed an additional absorption band at 2565 cm-1 and new shifts appeared in the 1H (δ 3.24 and at δ 3.44 ppm) and 13C NMR spectra's (21.56 ppm) confirming the esterification of mucilaginous polysaccharides. The prepared films of thiolated and unmodified mucilaginous polysaccharides were evaluated for various parameters like thickness, pH, and weight measurement, The film formulation had a thickness of 0.16 to 0.18 mm, pH in the range of 6.79 to 7.09 and weight uniformity 0.89 to 0.94 mg. The results reveal that the films based on thiolated material improved bioadhesive properties after thiolation. The SEM photographs revealed a smooth surface of film formulations. The diclofenac-loaded film of thiolated mucilaginous polysaccharide also showed >1.5-fold an increase in in-vitro drug release and exhibited non Fickian transport mechanism. These findings could increase the possible applications of chemically modified-thiolated mucilaginous polysaccharides of Cassia uniflora seeds in drug delivery.

Abstract
Exosomal glycoproteins play a significant role in many physiological and pathological processes. However, the detection of exosome surface glycans is currently challenged by the complexity of biological samples or the sensitivity of the methods. Herein, we prepared a novel fluorescent probe of biotin-functionalized nanocrystals (denoted as CdTe@cys-biotin) and applied it for the first time for the detection of the expression of exosomal surface glycans using a fluorescence amplification strategy. First, the dual affinity of TiO2 and CD63 aptamers of Fe3O4@TiO2-CD63 was utilized to rapidly and efficiently capture exosomes within 25 min. In this design, interference from other vesicles and soluble impurities can be avoided due to the dual recognition strategy. The chemical oxidation of NaIO4 oxidized the hydroxyl sites of exosomal surface glycans to aldehydes, which were then labeled with aniline-catalyzed biotin hydrazide. Using the high affinity between streptavidin and biotin, streptavidin-FITC and probes were successively anchored to the glycans on the exosomes. The fluorescent probe achieved the dual function of specific recognition and fluorescent labeling by modifying biotin on the surface of nanocrystals. This method showed excellent specificity and sensitivity for exosomes at concentrations ranging from 3.30 × 102 to 3.30 × 106 particles/mL, with a detection limit of 121.48 particles/mL. The fluorescent probe not only quantified exosomal surface glycans but also distinguished with high accuracy between serum exosomes from normal individuals and patients with kidney disease. In general, this method provides a powerful platform for sensitive detection of exosomes in cancer diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Monosaccharide compositions analysis (MCA) is indispensable for structural characterisations and structure-activity relationships of plant polysaccharides. OBJECTIVES To develop a concise and direct MCA method, we established a quantitative analysis of the multi-monosaccharaides by single marker (QAMS) by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed-amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD) method. METHODOLOGY A stable and reproducible HPAEC-PAD method for simultaneous determination of aldoses, ketoses and uronic acids (i.e., l-arabinose, d-xylose, d-ribose, l-rhamnose, d-fucose, d-mannose, d-glucose, d-galactose, d-fructose, d-glucuronic acid and d-galacturonic acid) was established by systematic optimisation of stationary phases, column temperatures and elution programmes. On this basis, the QAMS method was proposed through comprehensive investigations of relative correction factor (RCF) variations under different influencing factors, for example, sample concentrations, flow rates, and column temperatures. RESULTS Using rhamnose as an internal reference standard, the contents of the other monosaccharide components in polysaccharides from Panax quinquefolium L. and Achyranthes bidentata Bl. samples were simultaneously determined by QAMS, and there was no significant difference between the results from the QAMS and external standard method (t test, P > 0.520). In addition, a MCA fingerprinting of 30 batches of P. quinquefolium polysaccharide was established by HPAEC-PAD, and six common peaks were assigned and determined. CONCLUSIONS The established HPAEC-PAD-QAMS method was successfully applied to the MCA of polysaccharides from P. quinquefolium and A. bidentata after optimisation of hydrolysis conditions. HPAEC-PAD-QAMS was proposed and established for MCA of plant polysaccharides for the first time.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer. In this paper, the isolation and properties of exosomes as potential novel liquid biopsy markers for early PCa liquid biopsy diagnosis are investigated using two prostate human cell lines, i.e., benign (control) cell line RWPE1 and carcinoma cell line 22Rv1. Exosomes produced by both cell lines are characterised by various methods including nanoparticle-tracking analysis, dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. In addition, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is used to study three different receptors on the exosomal surface (CD63, CD81 and prostate-specific membrane antigen-PMSA), implementing monoclonal antibodies and identifying the type of glycans present on the surface of exosomes using lectins (glycan-recognising proteins). Electrochemical analysis is used to understand the interfacial properties of exosomes. The results indicate that cancerous exosomes are smaller, are produced at higher concentrations, and exhibit more nega tive zeta potential than the control exosomes. The SPR experiments confirm that negatively charged α-2,3- and α-2,6-sialic acid-containing glycans are found in greater abundance on carcinoma exosomes, whereas bisecting and branched glycans are more abundant in the control exosomes. The SPR results also show that a sandwich antibody/exosomes/lectins configuration could be constructed for effective glycoprofiling of exosomes as a novel liquid biopsy marker.

Abstract
High confidence and reproducibility are still challenges in bottom-up mass spectrometric N-glycopeptide identification. The collision energy used in the MS/MS measurements and the database search engine used to identify the species are perhaps the two most decisive factors. We investigated how the structural features of N-glycopeptides and the choice of the search engine influence the optimal collision energy, delivering the highest identification confidence. We carried out LC-MS/MS measurements using a series of collision energies on a large set of N-glycopeptides with both the glycan and peptide part varied and studied the behavior of Byonic, pGlyco, and GlycoQuest scores. We found that search engines show a range of behavior between peptide-centric and glycan-centric, which manifests itself already in the dependence of optimal collision energy on m/z. Using classical statistical and machine learning methods, we revealed that peptide hydrophobicity, glycan and peptide masses, and the number of mobile protons also have significant and search-engine-dependent influence, as opposed to a series of other parameters we probed. We envisioned an MS/MS workflow making a smart collision energy choice based on online available features such as the hydrophobicity (described by retention time) and glycan mass (potentially available from a scout MS/MS). Our assessment suggests that this workflow can lead to a significant gain (up to 100%) in the identification confidence, particularly for low-scoring hits close to the filtering limit, which has the potential to enhance reproducibility of N-glycopeptide analyses. Data are available via MassIVE (MSV000093110).

Abstract
Analytical quality by design (AQbD) is an enhanced approach for the development of analytical methods. AQbD has received much industrial interest, being the subject of several recently published draft guidelines. This article demonstrates the application of AQbD to determine the quantity of non-adsorbed polysaccharide polyribosyl ribitol phosphate (PRP) and percentage of depolymerized PRP in a commercial hexavalent liquid vaccine, and establishment of an analytical control strategy (ACS). The quantification method developed is high-performance anion-exchange chromatography (HPAEC) with pulsed amperometric detection, preceded by ultracentrifugation (sample preparation) for separation of the depolymerized polysaccharide from the native adsorbed polysaccharide. The first step was to develop the analytical target profile (ATP) which defines the purpose of the analytical measurement as well as the development scope. As a second step, risk assessment tools were used for identification and ranking of the critical method variables (CMVs) which have a potential impact on method performance if not controlled. Based on a multivariate Design of Experiments (DoE) approach, a proposed method operational design region (MODR) was determined for seven CMVs. Finally, the ACS was established from the understanding of the analytical method and the robustness study. This article focuses on robust and operational ranges of critical parameters linked to the ultracentrifugation and chromatographic steps for depolymerized polysaccharide content control. The design space proposed for CMVs corresponds to the ranges that ensure a product that complies with the previously established precision criteria (±2% equivalent to ± 10 % around the product criterion, which is 20 % for depolymerized polysaccharide control limit). The following design space was established from the DoE statistical modeling for ultracentrifugation critical parameters: [483,000-520,000] g for speed, [11-19]°C for temperature, [29-34] minutes for duration, and from extemporaneous to 8 min for holding time before supernatant recuperation after the ultracentrifugation. For chromatographic critical parameters, the MODR is [2-6] psi for mobile phase helium pressure, [0-7] days for mobile phase storage time, and [0-3] days for samples storage time in the autosampler at 5 °C. Methods optimized using the AQbD approach provide strong justifications during regulatory filing for the selection of analytical CMVs, and for the ACS to be applied during the lifecycle management of the method.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry-based approaches encompass a powerful collection of tools for the analysis biological molecules, including glycans and glycoconjugates. Unlike most traditional bioanalytical methods focusing on these molecules, mass spectrometry is especially suited for multiplexing, by utilizing stable-isotope labeling. Indeed, stable isotope-based multiplexing can be regarded as the gold-standard approach in reducing noise and uncertainty in quantitative mass spectrometry and quantitative analyses generally. The increasing sophistication and depth of biological questions being asked continue to challenge the practitioners of mass spectrometry method development. To understand the biological relevance of glycans, many stable isotope labeling-based mass spectrometry methods have been developed. Based on the duplex MILPIG (metabolic isotope labeling of polysaccharides with isotopic glucose), we establish here a novel triplex isotope labeling method using baker's yeast as the model system. Two differentially isotope-labeled glucoses (medium: 1-13C1 and heavy: 1,2-13C2), in addition to natural abundance glucose (light), were successfully used to label each monosaccharide ring in N-linked glycans in three different cell culture conditions, that, after sample mixing, resulted in a predictable triplet spectrum amenable for relative quantitation. We demonstrate excellent accuracy and precision of relative quantitation for a 1:1:1 mixture of glycans labeled in such a fashion. In addition, we applied triplex MILPIG to interrogate differential N-glycan profiles in tunicamycin-treated and control yeast cells and show that different N-glycans respond differently to tunicamycin.

Abstract
Radix Pueraria lobata can be used as medicine and food, whose polysaccharide is one of the main bioactive ingredients. To explore the effect and mechanism of Pueraria lobata polysaccharide, a homogeneous and novel water-soluble polysaccharide (PLP1) was successfully isolated and purified from P. lobata by column chromatography in the current study. Structure analysis revealed that PLP1 (Mw = 10.43 kDa) was constituted of the residues including (1 → 4)-α-d-glucose and (1 → 4, 6)-α-d-glucose, which were linked together at a ratio of 5:1 and represented the main glycosidic units. In vitro experiments indicated that PLP1 exhibited a better free radical-scavenging ability than amylose and amylopectin, meanwhile in vivo experiments indicated that PLP1 effectively protected against liver injury in mice with acute ALD through significantly inhibiting oxidative stress to regulate lipid metabolism, increasing short-chain fatty acid production, and maintaining intestinal homeostasis by regulating intestinal flora. Taken together, our results illustrate that PLP1 can regulate intestinal microecology as a feasible therapeutic agent for protecting against ALD on the ground of the gut-liver axis, thus laying a theoretical foundation for the rational exploitation and utilization of P. lobata resources in the clinic.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is the most common and serious complication of diabetes, and its incidence, disability, and mortality rates are increasing worldwide. The pathogenesis of DFU is associated with dysregulated inflammation mediated by abnormal immunoglobulin G (IgG) glycosylation. In this study, we developed a comprehensive method for IgG N-linked glycosylation in the serum of DFU patients. Through analysis, we identified 31 IgG1 glycans, 32 IgG2 glycans, and 30 IgG4 glycans in the DFU serum. Furthermore, 13 IgG1 glycans, 12 IgG2 glycans, and 5 IgG4 glycans in the DFU groups were found to be significantly different from those of the control groups (p < 0.05). Of these, compared with the control group, one glycan was unique to DFU patients, and seven glycans were not detected in the DFU group. In terms of glycan characteristics, we observed a substantial decrease in galactosylation, sialylation and bisecting GlcNAcylation, and a significant increase in agalactosylation. Abnormal IgG N-glycosylation modifications were significantly associated with the chronic inflammation that is characteristic of DFU. Further, this is the first comprehensive analysis of subclass-specific IgG N-glycosylation in DFU patients, which not only fills the gap of DFU in terms of the pathological mechanisms related to IgG glycosylation but also may provide valuable clues for the immunotherapeutic pathway of DFU.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-released vesicles that mediate intercellular communication by transferring bioactive cargo. Protein and RNA sorting into EVs has been extensively assessed, while selective enrichment of glycans in EVs remains less explored. In this study, a mass spectrometry-based approach, glycan node analysis (GNA), was applied to broadly assess the sorting of glycan features into EVs. Two metastatic variants (lung and bone) generated in mouse modes from the MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cell line were assessed, as these EVs are known to contain distinct organotropic biomolecules. EVs were isolated from conditioned cell culture medium by tangential flow filtration and authenticated by standard techniques. GNA analysis revealed selective enrichment of several glycan features in EVs compared to the originating cells, particularly those associated with binding to the extracellular matrix, which was also observed in EVs from the parental MDA-MB-231 cell line (human pleural metastases). The bone-tropic variant displayed enrichment of distinct EV glycan features compared to the lung-tropic one. Additionally, the metastatic variants generated in mouse models displayed reduced EV glycan sorting compared to the parental metastatic cell line. This study represents the first comprehensive assessment of differences in glycan features between EVs and originating cells and provides evidence that the diversity of EV glycan sorting is reduced upon generation of variant cell lines in mouse models. Future research is likely to uncover novel mechanisms of EV glycan sorting, shed light on glycan features for EV authentication or biomarker purposes, and assess functional roles of the EV glycocode in (patho)physiology.

Abstract
Automation of diagnostic assays generally aims to increase reproducibility and throughput while decreasing human errors and hands-on time. Here, we introduce a protocol for the automated chemical conjugation of glycans to color-coded magnetic beads using the KingFisher Flex magnetic particle processor. The resulting glycan-coupled magnetic beads allow the detection of anti-glycan antibodies of different isotypes from various species. By generating anti-glycan antibody profiles, monoclonal antibodies can be screened for their specificity and cross-reactivity, while anti-glycan antibody profiles from different human body fluids can aid in predicting response to treatment or outcome of disease. This efficient, scalable protocol can also be adapted to attach proteins and other biomolecules to beads, making it useful for a wider range of applications that require bead-based laboratory methods.

Abstract
Human milk is abundant in carbohydrates and includes human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) and N/O-glycans conjugated to proteins. HMO compositions and concentrations vary in individuals according to the maternal secretor status based on the fucosyltransferase 2 genotype; however, the profile of N/O-glycans remains uninvestigated because of the analytical complexity. Herein, we applied a label-free chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) technique to elucidate the variation in the composition and concentration of N/O-glycans in human milk. We used label-free LC-MS to relatively quantify 16 N-glycans and 12 O-glycans in 200 samples of Japanese human milk (1-2 months postpartum) and applied high performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection to absolutely quantify the concentrations of 11 representative HMOs. Cluster analysis of the quantitative data revealed that O-glycans and several HMOs were classified according to the presence or absence of fucose linked to galactose while N-glycans were classified into a different group from O-glycans and HMOs. O-glycans and HMOs with fucose linked to galactose were more abundant in human milk from secretor mothers than from nonsecretor mothers. Thus, secretor status influenced the composition and concentration of HMOs and O-glycans but not those of N-glycans in human milk.

Abstract
This paper studied the effect of conventional pre-fermentative techniques (direct pressing "CP" and cold maceration "CM") and an innovate technique (high power ultrasounds "S"), applied to Viogner and Monastrell grapes on the polysaccharide content of the musts, white and rosé wines, and after six months of bottle aging. The results showed that the longer pre-fermentation maceration time applied with the CM technique compared to the short ultrasonic maceration was key in the extraction of polysaccharides from the grape to the must. CP treatment produced wines with the lowest content of total soluble polysaccharide families since it was the least intense pretreatment for the disruption of the grape berry cell wall polysaccharides. Ultrasonic pretreatment could be used as a new tool to increase the solubilization of polysaccharides in wines, positively affecting the wine colloidal properties. During bottle aging, there wasn't a clear effect of pretreatments on the evolution of polysaccharides.

Abstract
Polysaccharides have an important role in the technological and sensory characteristics of wines. The aim of this work was to study the effects of the addition of four polysaccharide extracts obtained from grape products and byproducts to red wines during storage for 2 months on their phenolic composition and color. The four extracts rich in polysaccharides were obtained from grape must, white grape pomace, red grape marc, and red wine, and they were compared with a commercial inactivated yeast. These products were studied in three wines selected for their highest astringency and acidity characteristics. The highest differences were found in the red wines with high initial phenolic concentrations, which reduced their values. The addition of polysaccharide extracts from grape pomace or marc, must, or yeast can mainly be interesting in wines with high phenolic content since they may be useful to modulate the astringency of red wines. This is the first work that studies the effect of polysaccharide extracts obtained from grape byproducts in red wines, showing great possibilities of these products.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Saposhnikoviae Radix (SR) is a traditional Chinese medicine, known as "Fangfeng". As one of the main active components, Saposhnikoviae Radix polysaccharides (SP) demonstrated a range of biological activities, especially immunity regulation activity. AIMS OF THE STUDY This study aimed at exploring whether polysaccharides have activity after degradation, then discovering the potential effective fragments of SP. MATERIALS AND METHODS Here we establish the chromatographic fingerprints method for 32 batches of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) derivatives of oligosaccharides by HPLC, meanwhile evaluating its immunomodulatory activity in vivo. Then, the potential effective fragments of SP were screened out based on the spectrum-effect relationship analysis between fingerprints and the pharmacological results. Besides, liquid chromatography ion trap-time of flight mass spectrometry (LC-IT-TOF MS) coupled with multiple data-mining techniques was used to identify the potential effective oligosaccharides. RESULTS These findings showed that the hydrolysate of SP have significant immunomodulatory, and the immunity regulation activity varies under different hydrolysis conditions. The 4 potential effective peaks of the hydrolysate of SP were mined by spectrum-effect relationship. Finally, the chemical structure of 4 potential effective oligosaccharide fragments of SP was elucidated based on LC-IT-TOF MS. F10 was inferred tentatively to be Hex1→6Hex1→6Hex1→6Hex1→6Hex1→6Gal; F18 was confirmed to be Rhamnose; F14 was inferred tentatively to be Hex1→4Hex1→ 4Hex1→4Gal and F25 was tentatively inferred to be Ara1→6Gal. CONCLUSIONS This study may provide a sound experimental foundation in the exploration of the active fragments from macromolecular components with relatively complex structures such as polysaccharides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common gynecological tumors with high morbidity and mortality. Altered serum N-glycome has been observed in many diseases, while the association between serum protein N-glycosylation and OC progression remains unclear, particularly for the onset of carcinogenesis from benign neoplasms to cancer. METHODS Herein, a mass spectrometry based high-throughput technique was applied to characterize serum N-glycome profile in individuals with healthy controls, benign neoplasms and different stages of OC. To elucidate the alterations of glycan features in OC progression, an orthogonal strategy with lectin-based ELISA was performed. RESULTS It was observed that the initiation and development of OC was associated with increased high-mannosylationand agalactosylation, concurrently with decreased total sialylation of serum, each of which gained at least moderately accurate merits. The most important individual N-glycans in each glycan group was H7N2, H3N5 and H5N4S2F1, respectively. Notably, serum N-glycome could be used to accurately discriminate OC patients from benign cohorts, with a comparable or even higher diagnostic score compared to CA125 and HE4. Furthermore, bioinformatics analysis based discriminative model verified the diagnostic performance of serum N-glycome for OC in two independent sets. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrated the great potential of serum N-glycome for OC diagnosis and precancerous lesion prediction, paving a new way for OC screening and monitoring.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Radix Saposhnikoviae (R. Saposhnikoviae), commonly known as FangFeng, is a renowned medicinal herb in China extensively utilized in traditional Chinese medicine. It expels pathogenic wind from the body surface, alleviates pain by removing dampness, and relieves convulsion. Therefore, it is mainly used for treating exterior syndrome, itchy wind papules, rheumatic arthralgia, and splenic asthenia-induced dampness. R. saposhnikoviae has important medicinal value, and the polysaccharide component is one of its important active ingredients. AIM OF THE REVIEW This review summarizes the factors influencing the content of polysaccharides in R. Saposhnikoviae (PRSs), the techniques employed for their extraction, separation, and purification, their structural characterization, and their biological activities. MATERIALS AND METHODS Relevant research reports on PRSs were collected from the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Web of Science, PubMed, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China Master Theses Full-text Database, and China Doctoral Dissertations Full-text Database. RESULTS The content of PRSs can vary depending on cultivation methods and harvesting time. PRSs were extracted using various extraction techniques such as hot water, ultrasonic-assisted, microwave-assisted, and enzymatic extractions, as well as water extraction and alcohol precipitation. Effective purification methods involve protein removal using trifluoro-trichloroethane and the decolorization of the polysaccharide using column chromatography with D280 anion exchange resins. Current research highlights the significant pharmacological activities of PRSs in R. Saposhnikoviae, including immunomodulatory, antioxidant, anti-allergic, anti-cancer, and anti-osteoporotic effects as well as prevention of calcium loss and maintenance of mucosal function. CONCLUSIONS PRSs play a crucial role as bioactive constituents of R. Saposhnikoviae, exhibiting diverse biological activities and promising applications. A deeper understanding of PRSs will contribute to the improved utilization of R. Saposhnikoviae and the development of related derivatives of the active ingredients.

Abstract
In this study, Lallemantia royleana mucilage (LRM) based edible coating containing 1.5 × 108 and 3 × 109 CFU/mL Lacticaseibacillus casei XN18 (Lbc1.5 and Lbc3) was designed to improve the quality and shelf-life of fresh pistachio. The fresh pistachios were coated with LRM + Lbc and their physicochemical, microbial, and sensory properties were evaluated after 1-, 5-, 15-, 25-, and 35-day storage at 4 °C. By the end of storage day, in comparison to control, the presence of probiotic isolate in the edible coating (particularly LRM + Lbc3) led to a marked decrease in fungal growth (3.1 vs. 5.8 Log CFU/g), weight loss (6.7 vs. 8.1%), and fat oxidation (0.19 vs. 0.98 meq O2/kg), and preserved total chlorophylls (8.1 vs. 5.85 mg/kg) and phenols (31.5 vs. 20.32 mg GAE/100 g), and antioxidant activity (38.95 vs. 15.18%) of samples during storage period. Furthermore, LRM + Lbc3-coated samples had a probiotic number above the recommended level (6.85-9.29 log CFU/g) throughout storage. The pistachios coated with probiotic-enriched edible coatings were greatly accepted by panelists. In the next section, Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) was used for predicting some parameters including: weight loss, TSS, Fat content, PV, Soluble carbohydrate content, Viability, Total phenolic compounds, Antioxidant activity, Mold and yeast, Total chlorophylls, Total carotenoids, Color, Odor and Overall acceptance. The results indicated that, there is a good agreement between the actual and predicted data by GPR model and it can be used for similar situation to decrease the cost of laboratory tests and increase the respond of analysis.

Abstract
Surface-embedded glycoproteins, such as the spike protein trimers of coronaviruses MERS, SARS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2, play a key role in viral function and are the target antigen for many vaccines. However, their significant glycan heterogeneity poses an analytical challenge. Here, we utilized individual ion mass spectrometry (I2MS), a multiplexed charge detection measurement with similarities to charge detection mass spectrometry (CDMS), in which a commercially available Orbitrap analyzer is used to directly produce mass profiles of these heterogeneous coronavirus spike protein trimers under native-like conditions. Analysis by I2MS shows that glycosylation contributes to the molecular mass of each protein trimer more significantly than expected by bottom-up techniques, highlighting the importance of obtaining complementary intact mass information when characterizing glycosylation of such heterogeneous proteins. Enzymatic dissection to remove sialic acid or N-linked glycans demonstrates that I2MS can be used to better understand the glycan profile from a native viewpoint. Deglycosylation of N-glycans followed by I2MS analysis indicates that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein trimer contains glycans that are more difficult to remove than its MERS and SARS-CoV counterparts, and these differences are correlated with solvent accessibility. I2MS technology enables characterization of protein mass and intact glycan profile and is orthogonal to traditional mass analysis methods such as size exclusion chromatography-multiangle light scattering (SEC-MALS) and field flow fractionation-multiangle light scattering (FFF-MALS). An added advantage of I2MS is low sample use, requiring 100-fold less than other methodologies. This work highlights how I2MS technology can enable efficient development of vaccines and therapeutics for pharmaceutical development.

Abstract
K63 capsular polysaccharide produced by Acinetobacter baumannii isolate LUH5551 (previously designated isolate O24) was re-examined using sugar analysis, Smith degradation, and one- and two-dimensional 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Though previously reported as O24 consisting of linear tetrasaccharide units that include a 7-acetamido-5-acylamino form of 8-epilegionaminic acid [8eLeg5R7Ac, acylated at C5 with (S)-3-hydroxybutanoyl or acetyl (1:1)], the elucidated structure of the K63 type capsule was found to include a derivative of 5,7-diamino-3,5,7,9-tetradeoxy-d-glycero-d-galacto-non-2-ulosonic (legionaminic) acid, Leg5Ac7R, where R is either (S)-3-hydroxybutanoyl or an acetyl group (∼1:1 ratio). This finding is consistent with the presence of the lgaABCHIFG gene module for Leg5Ac7R biosynthesis in the KL63 gene cluster at the capsular polysaccharide (CPS) biosynthesis K locus in the LUH5551 genome. The glycosyltransferases (Gtrs) and Wzy polymerase encoded by KL63 were assigned to linkages in the linear K63 tetrasaccharide unit and linkage of the K63 units.

Abstract
Cryogels offer a promising macroporous platform that can be employed as either a functional ingredient in food composites or a colloidal template for incorporating bioactives, including probiotic living cells. The aim of the present work is to explore the functionality of two plant seed polysaccharides, flaxseed gum (FG) and alfalfa galactomannan (AAG), in individual and combined (1:1 ratio) milk protein-based cryogels, namely sodium caseinate (NaCas) and whey protein isolate (WPI). These cryogels were created by freeze-drying hydrogels formed via L.rhamnosus GG - a human gut-relevant probiotic strain - fermentation. Our findings showed that including gum in the composition limited volume contraction during lyophilisation, reduced macropore size and thickened cryogel skeleton vessels. Furthermore, gum-containing cryogels displayed improved thermal stability and slower water disintegration rates. The AAG-stabilised cryogels specifically showed a notable reduction in monolayer water content compared to FG. From a mechanistic viewpoint, AAG influenced the physicochemical and microstructural properties of the cryogels, most probably via its self-association during cryogenic processing, promoting the development of intertwined protein-gum networks. FG, on the other hand, enhanced these properties through electrostatic complexation with proteins. Cryogels made from protein-polysaccharide blends exhibited promising techno-functional properties for enhancing and diversifying food product innovation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Nanoparticles are used in various fields such as chemistry, pharmacy, biotechnology, and food science since they provide higher sensitivity than traditional optical detection methods. Recently, synthesis of nanomaterials using green chemistry has become popular. Many phytochemical components are used in the synthesis of nanoparticles, including vitamins, proteins, polysaccharides, glycosides, essential oils and phenolic compounds. OBJECTIVE A novel green nanotechnology-based method using quince seed mucilage (QSM) was designed for the determination of ascorbic acid in pharmaceutical preparations. QSM, a natural polysaccharide, was used as a bioreducing and stabilizing reagent in the proposed silver nanoparticle (SNP)-based method. METHOD In the first stage of the developed method, silver(I) is reduced to silver(0) via QSM and spherical, homogeneous SNPs were prepared (QSM-SNPs). In the second stage of the developed method, SNPs nuclei were enlarged with the addition of ascorbic acid. The developed method was validated by performance parameters (linearity, recovery, and precision). Ascorbic acid determination was performed by measuring increase in absorbance at 420 nm. RESULTS The limit of detection and limit of quantification for ascorbic acid were, respectively, found to be at 0.27 and 0.90 μM. The QSM-SNP-based method was successfully applied to effervescent tablets containing ascorbic acid. The standards of the excipients frequently used in pharmaceutical preparations did not interfere with the developed method. CONCLUSION The developed QSM-SNP-based method satisfies the requirements of green nanotechnology. The developed QSM-SNP-based method is simple, fast, eco-friendly and low-cost.

Abstract
A new homogeneous polysaccharide (TPS3A) was isolated and purified from Tianzhu Xianyue fried green tea by DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephacryl S-500 column chromatography. Structural characterization indicated that TPS3A mainly consisted of arabinose, galactose, galacturonic acid and rhamnose in a molar ratio of 5.84: 4.15: 2.06: 1, with an average molecular weight of 1.596 × 104 kDa. The structure of TPS3A was characterized as a repeating unit consisting of 1,3-Galp, 1,4-Galp, 1,3,6-Galp, 1,3-Araf, 1,5-Araf, 1,2,4-Rhap and 1-GalpA, with two branches on the C6 of 1,3,6-Galp and C2 of 1,2,4-Rhap, respectively. To investigate the preventive effects of TPS3A on atherosclerosis, TPS3A was administered orally to ApoE-deficient (ApoE-/-) mice. Results revealed that TPS3A intervention could effectively delay the atherosclerotic plaque progression, modulate dyslipidemia, and reduce the transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) from contractile phenotype to synthetic phenotype by activating the expression of contractile marker alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and inhibiting the expression of synthetic marker osteopontin (OPN) in high-fat diet-induced ApoE-/- mice. Our findings suggested that TPS3A markedly alleviated atherosclerosis by regulating dyslipidemia and phenotypic transition of VSMCs, and might be used as a novel functional ingredient to promote cardiovascular health.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM N-glycans are potential serum biomarkers due to their aberrant structure and abundance alteration during disease progression. Few studies have been associated with relative quantitative N-glycans profiling during different gastric disease stages. In this study, we conducted an investigation on the profiling of N-glycans in patients with gastric disease, as well as in healthy controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, the porous graphitization carbon chromatography-high resolution Fourier transform mass spectrometry (PGC-FTMS) method was applied to assess comprehensive N-glycans profiling in patients at different stages of gastric disease, including gastritis, atrophic gastritis, gastric ulcer, gastric polyps, and gastric cancer. RESULTS A total of 45 N-glycans (relative abundance >0.1%) were detected, and 9 N-glycans were found to be potential biomarkers for gastric disease detection. Along with the progression of gastric disease, the abundance of sialylated N-glycans increased, while that of core-fucosylated N-glycans decreased. Multivariate statistical analysis demonstrated that N-glycans profiling between gastritis and healthy controls had significant differences. The characteristic N-glycans distinguished gastric cancer from healthy controls, which had strong clinical diagnostic value. CONCLUSION The relative quantitative profile of N-glycans in different gastric disease stages was revealed and serum N-glycans are proposed for distinguishing gastric disease stages in clinical application.

Abstract
To fully understand whether Saposhnikoviae Radix polysaccharides(SP) can be metabolized in gastric fluid and the meta-bolic behavior, this study systematically analyzed the metabolites in simulated gastric fluid of SP by high-performance liquid chromatography-ion trap time-of-flight mass spectrometry(HPLC-IT-TOF-MS) technology in combination with zebrafish immune activity evaluation. Based on the obtained accurate relative molecular mass, chromatographic retention behavior, MS fragmentation patterns, refe-rence standards, and relevant literature reports, 19 metabolites were analyzed and identified. Among them, five monosaccharides and 14 oligosaccharides were generated as metabolites. Several reducing sugars, including mannose, glucose, rhamnose, and xylose, were accurately identified in the gastric fluid metabolites. Zebrafish pharmacological evaluation results indicated that SP maintained good immune activity after gastric fluid metabolism, with the most significant increase in immune cell density observed at W3(simulated gastric fluid metabolism for 2 hours). Among the gastric fluid metabolites, M1 and M3(Hex-Hex-Man) may be most closely related to pharmacological activity and could be further studied as potential active fragments.

Abstract
Calibrated size exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a useful tool for the analysis of molecular dimensions of polysaccharides. The calibration takes place with a set of narrow distributed dextran standards and peak position technique. Adapted columns systems and dissolving processes enable for the adequate separation of carbohydrate polymers. Plant-extracted fructan (a homopolymer with low molar mass and excellent water solubility) and mucilage (differently structured, high molar mass heteropolysaccarides that include existing supramolecular structures, and require a long dissolving time) are presented as examples of the versatility of this technique. Since narrow standards similar to the samples (chemically and structurally) are often unavailable, it must be noted that the obtained molar mass values and distributions by this method are only apparent (relative) values, expressed as dextran equivalents.

Abstract
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has broken boundaries in the characterization of the supramolecular architecture of cell wall assemblies and single cell wall polysaccharides at the nanoscale level. Moreover, AFM provides an opportunity to evaluate the mechanical properties of cell wall material which is not possible with any other method. However, in the case of plant tissue, the critical step is a smart sample preparation that should not affect the polysaccharide structure or assembly and on the other hand should consider device limitations, especially scanner ranges. In this chapter, the protocols from the sample preparation, including isolation of cell wall material and extraction of cell wall polysaccharide fractions, through AFM imaging of polysaccharide assemblies and single molecules until an image analysis to obtain quantitative data characterizing the biopolymers are presented.

Abstract
This paper describes for the first time the use of grape derived polysaccharide extracts as potential fining agents to modulate the volatile composition of Viura white wines. Polysaccharide extracts were obtained from white grape pomace, red wine pomace, white must, red must, white wine, and lees from white wine. Except for higher alcohols, the extracts from white pomace, red pomace and white lees increased the content of most volatile compounds after one and twelve months of bottle aging. They could be used to enhance fruity and floral aromas and reduce unpleasant aromas, showing as good modulators of white wine aroma. The presence of mannoproteins, glucans, non-pectic polysaccharides, and low molecular weight polysaccharides increased the content of most volatile families. Polysaccharides of medium molecular weight showed negative correlations with volatile contents. Our results support the use of winemaking by-products to obtain valuable polysaccharides, contributing to the circular economy.

Abstract
Mucins are often stained with the basic dye Alcian blue, but mucins with a low acidic glycan content cannot be stained with it. Succinylation-Alcian blue staining is a method that temporarily modifies glycans with succinic acid to visualize mucins with low acidic glycan content. This method can be used to stain mucins on polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) membranes separated via supported molecular matrix electrophoresis (SMME) and mucins blotted onto PVDF membranes from gel electrophoreses. The succinyl groups of the modified glycans can be easily and completely removed by releasing O-glycan from the stained mucin bands. Therefore, the glycans can be analyzed using the same methods as those used for mucins with a high acidic glycan content.

Abstract
Apple (Malus domestica) is a popular and ancient fruit of the Myrtaceae family. Apple fruit is well-known for its great nutritional and phytochemical content consisted of beneficial compounds such as polyphenols, polysaccharides, sterols, and organic acids. Polysaccharides extracted from different parts of the apple fruit, including the peel, pomace, or the whole fruit, have been extensively studied. Researchers have investigated the structural characteristics of these polysaccharides, such as molecular weight, type of monosaccharide unit, type of linkage and its position and arrangement. Besides this, functional properties and physicochemical and of apple polysaccharides have also been studied, along with the effects of extraction procedures, storage, and processing on cell wall polysaccharides. Various extraction techniques, including hot water extraction, enzymatic extraction, and solvent-assisted extraction, have been studied. From the findings, it was evident that apple polysaccharides are mainly composed of (1 → 3), (1 → 6): α-β-glycosidic linkage. Moreover, the apple polysaccharides were demonstrated to exhibit antioxidant, hepatoprotective, anti-cancer, hypoilipidemic, and enzyme inhibitory properties in vitro and in vivo. The potential applications of apple polysaccharides in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical industries have also been explored in the present review. Overall, the research on apple polysaccharides highlights their significant potential as a source of biologically active compounds with various health benefits and practical applications.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE) has become a primary research topic for the treatment of diseased or damaged tendon/ligament (T/L) tissue. T/L injuries pose a severe clinical burden worldwide, necessitating the development of effective strategies for T/L repair and tissue regeneration. TE has emerged as a promising strategy for restoring T/L function using decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)-based scaffolds. dECM scaffolds have gained significant prominence because of their native structure, relatively high bioactivity, low immunogenicity, and ability to function as scaffolds for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation, which are difficult to imitate using synthetic materials. Here, we review the recent advances and possible future prospects for the advancement of dECM scaffolds for T/L tissue regeneration. We focus on crucial scaffold properties and functions, as well as various engineering strategies employed for biomaterial design in T/L regeneration. dECM provides both the physical and mechanical microenvironments required by cells to survive and proliferate. Various decellularization methods and sources of allogeneic and xenogeneic dECM in T/L repair and regeneration are critically discussed. Additionally, dECM hydrogels, bio-inks in 3D bioprinting, and nanofibers are briefly explored. Understanding the opportunities and challenges associated with dECM-based scaffold development is crucial for advancing T/L repairs in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of Moringa oleifera polysaccharide on growth performance indicators, serum biochemical indicators, immune organ indicators, colonic morphology, colonic microbiomics and colonic transcriptomics in newborn calves. 21 newborn calves were randomly divided into three groups of 7 calves per treatment group: control group (no Moringa oleifera polysaccharide addition); low-dose group (Moringa oleifera polysaccharide 0.5 g/kg); and high-dose group (Moringa oleifera polysaccharide 1 g/kg). This trial used gavage to feed MOP to calves. The test lasted 8 weeks. Calves were humanely electroshocked on the last day of the trial and slaughtered afterwards. Thymus, spleen, blood and colonic contents were collected for further testing. The results of this trial showed that MOP significantly increased the body weight of newborn calves and reduced the rate of calf diarrhea, thus promoting calf growth. Fecal scores showed a linear decrease with the addition of MOP. In terms of serum biochemistry, feeding MOP significantly increased serum ALB levels in a linear fashion. In terms of serum antioxidants, feeding MOP linearly increased CAT and T-AOC levels and decreased MDA concentrations, and in terms of serum immunity, feeding MOP linearly increased IgA, IgG, and IgM levels. At the same time, MOP regulated the abundance of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes in the intestinal tract of calves, which reduced the occurrence of diarrhea. In addition, moringa polysaccharide could regulate genes related to inflammatory signaling pathways such as MAPK signaling pathway, TGF-beta signaling pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and TNF signaling pathway in calves' intestine to reduce the occurrence of intestinal inflammation. In conclusion, MOP can be used as a novel ruminant additive for the prevention of enteritis in calves.

Abstract
Dietary fiber is crucial for human health mainly due to its impact on gut microbiota structure and metabolites. This study aimed to investigate the impact of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOP) and two common fibers (β-glucan and inulin) on the gut microbiome structure and metabolic profile in vitro. Fecal samples were obtained from 30 healthy volunteers, which were then individually subjected to fermentation with each type of fiber. The results revealed that all fibers were efficiently degraded by gut microbiota, with DOP exhibiting a slower fermentation rate compared to β-glucan and inulin. The fermentation of all fibers led to a significant increase in the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and a reduction in branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs), sulfides, phenols, and indole. Moreover, the abundance of unclassified Enterobacteriaceae, which was positively correlated with sulfide, phenols, and indole levels, was significantly reduced by all fibers. Additionally, DOP specifically promoted the growth of Parabacteroides, while β-glucan and inulin promoted the growth of Bifidobacterium and Faecalibacterium. Taken together, these findings enhance our understanding of the role of DOP, β-glucan, and inulin in modulating gut microbiota and metabolites, where the fermentation with fecal bacteria from different volunteers could provide valuable insights for personalized therapeutic approaches.
