Optimization extraction, characterization and anticancer activities of polysaccharides from mango pomace.
Response surface methodology was used to optimize the extraction conditions for ultrasonic-assisted extraction of polysaccharides from mango pomace. The Optimum extraction conditions consisted of extraction temperature of 74 °C, ultrasonic power of 170 W, extraction time of 100 min, and raw material-to-water ratio of 1:40 g/mL. Under these conditions, the extraction yield was 3.71 ± 0.07%. Three novel polysaccharide fractions, MG-1, MG-2 and MG-3 were purified from the crude polysaccharides by using DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. The molecular weight and monosaccharide composition of polysaccharide fractions (MPFs) were analyzed by high performance liquid gel permeation chromatography (HPGPC) and HPLC analysis, respectively. The characterizations of MPFs were conducted with FT-IR, 1H NMR and SEM. Furthermore, the anticancer activities of the polysaccharide fractions were also investigated in vitro. Results showed that MG-1, MG-2 and MG-3 exhibited significant anticancer activities against HepG2, MCF-7, A549, HeLa, A2780, HCT-116 and BGC-823 cells in a dose-dependent manner. MPFs were also showed to promote apoptosis as seen in the nuclear morphological examination study using calcein acetyl methoxy methyl easter (calcein-AM) and propidium iodide (PI) staining. This research could serve as a theoretical reference for the efficient utilization of MPFs in biomedical and functional food.

Ultrasonic extraction, antioxidant and anticancer activities of novel polysaccharides from Chuanxiong rhizome.
Ultrasonic-assisted extraction technology was employed to prepare Ligusticum chuanxiong Hort polysaccharide. Single factor test and orthogonal experimental design were used to optimize the extraction conditions. The results showed that the optimal extraction conditions consisted of ultrasonic temperature of 80°C, ultrasonic time of 40 min and water to raw material ratio of 30 mL/g. Three novel polysaccharides fractions, LCX0, LCX1 and LCX2, were isolated and purified from the crude polysaccharides using DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. The molecular weight and monosaccharide composition of three LCX polysaccharides fractions were analyzed with gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and HPLC analysis, respectively. Furthermore, the antioxidant and in vitro anticancer activities of the polysaccharides were investigated. Compared with LCX0, LCX2 and LCX1 showed relative higher antioxidant activity and inhibitory activity to the growth of HepG2, SMMC7721, A549 and HCT-116 cells. It is suggested that the novel polysaccharides from rhizome of L. chuanxiong could be promising bioactive macromolecules for biomedical use.

Polysaccharides from pineapple pomace: new insight into ultrasonic-cellulase synergistic extraction and hypoglycemic activities.
This study determined the optimal extraction conditions for ultrasonic-cellulase synergistic extraction of polysaccharides from pineapple pomace (PPP) using Plackett-Burman design and response surface methodology. The optimal hydrolysis temperature, ratio of material to water, pH value, hydrolysis time, ultrasonic power and the additive quantity of cellulase were 50 °C, 1:45 g/mL, 6.0, 100 min, 160 W and 2.0%, respectively, giving a extraction yield of 1.10 ± 0.03%. PPP was further isolated and purified by DEAE-52 cellulose and Sephadex G-100 chromatography columns, revealing four main elution peaks, named PPF0, PPF1, PPP2 and PPF3, were obtained. The molecular weight, monosaccharide compositions, structural features and appearance morphology of polysaccharide fractions (PPFs) were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gel permeation chromatography (GPC), UV spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, the hypoglycemic activities of PPFs with different concentrations were also investigated by insulin resistance HepG2 cells model in vitro. Results showed that PPF0, PPF1, PPF2 and PPF3 were composed of mannose, rhamnose, glucuronic acid, galacturonic acid, glucose, galactose, xylose, arabinose and fucose with molecular weight of 6.71 × 104, 1.11 × 104, 2.22 × 104 and 5.1 × 103 Da, respectively. All of them could alleviate the development of insulin resistance HepG2 cells with a dose-dependent relationship. The glucose consumption increased 46.4%, 50.5%, 82.1% and 53.6%; 86.8%, 81.6%, 86.8% and 84.2% at the concentration of 20 μg/mL, respectively, without or with insulin. These results suggested that PPFs can be explored as a potential hypoglycemic agent in biomedical and functional food.

Optimization extraction, structural features and antitumor activity of polysaccharides from Z. jujuba cv. Ruoqiangzao seeds.
As a discarded byproduct of jujube (Z. jujuba), its seeds contain various biological components. Response surface methodology was used to optimize ultrasound-assisted heating extraction conditions of polysaccharides from Z. jujuba cv. Ruoqiangzao seeds (ZJSPs). The optimal parameters were as follows: temperature 83.1 °C, time 100 min, ultrasonic power 140 W, and water-material ratio 33.5 mL/g, allowed a maximum yield of 1.97%. One main fraction (ZJSPs-1) was successfully purified by ion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography. With a molecular weight of 342 kDa, ZJSPs-1 was composed of arabinose, glucose, xylose, galactose and rhamnose. The presence of pyranose-form sugars as well as both α- and β-configurations was validated by FT-IR and 1H NMR. TG/DSC indicated that ZJSPs-1 has a favorable thermal stability. XRD suggested that ZJSPs-1 exhibited both crystalline and amorphous portions. ZJSPs-1 was in aggregates of homogenous-dense honeycomb like structures observed by SEM and AFM. ZJSPs-1 possessed antitumor activities against HeLa cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner at 24 and 48 h with IC50 of 164.6 and 87.1 μg/mL, respectively. Fluorescent microscopic and flow cytometry revealed that ZJSPs-1 inhibited the proliferation of HeLa cells through apoptosis. Z. jujuba seeds are good sources for antitumor polysaccharides in pharmaceutical and food industries.
