Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between structure of b D -glucan derivatives from Poria cocos sclerotiuma and anti gastric cancer activities of elderly rats.Methods A water insoluble (1→3)-β-D-glucan (PCS3-Ⅱ ) isolated from fresh sclerotium of Poria cocos was sulfated,carboxymethylated,methylated,hydroxyethylated and hydroxypropylated,respectively,to prepare five water-soluble derivatives.Their activities of the native β-glucan and five derivatives against gastric cancer cell strains of MKN-45,SGC 7901and MKN-28 were tested in vitro and in vivo.Results The native β-glucan did not show any anti-gastric cancer activity,while the sulfated and carboxymethylated derivatives significantly exhibited the anti gastric cancer activity against MKN-45,SGC-7901 and MKN-28 cells in vitro,and elderly rats with MKN-45 transplanted tumor,especially.The gastric cancer inhibition rates of elderly rats were 32.7％ and 36.4％ for the 100 mg/kg sulfated and carboxymethylated derivatives,respectively.Conclusions The fresh sclerotium of Poria cocos polysaccharides can not show any anti gastric cancer activity in vitro,but the sulfated and carboxymethylated derivatives may increase the inhibition effect.Water-solubility,higher chain stiffness and relatively molecular weight would be benefit to increase anti-elderly gastric cancer activity of polysaccharides from Poria cocos sclerotiuma.
