Abstract

Abstract Caulerpa racemosa was extracted with the combined procedure of neutral protease and boiling water to yield a water‐soluble polysaccharide coded as CRP. The obtained C. racemosa polysaccharide (CRP) was fractionated with DEAE‐52 cellulose, which led to two soluble polysaccharide fractions designated as CRPF1 and CRPF2. CRP, CRPF1, and CRPF2 were chemically determined and their antitumor activity was assayed. Results showed that they were all mixtures composed of sulfated polysaccharide with 3.9–7.9% uronic acid and protein, and had similar amino acid composition, but CRP was more than CRPF1 and CRPF2 in total sugar and uronic acid content, and less in sulfate group content. Two main sugars, glucose (Glu, 56.8%) and galactose (Gal, 31.8%), of CRP were enriched to CRPF2 (Glu, 89.1%) and CRPF1 (Gal, 99.2%) respectively; Bioassay indicated that all CRP had strong antitumor activity in both in vitro and in vivo, and its inhibition rate of K562 cells in vitro at the concentration of 6.0–10.0 mg mL−1 and of H22 tumor transplanted in mice at a dose of 100 mg kg−1 day were 59.5–83.8% (48 h) and 53.9% (14 days), respectively. Moreover, at a lower dose (0.05–0.2 mg mL−1) and longer time (72 h), CRP exhibited stronger inhibition effect on K562 cells than CRPF1 and CRPF2. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
