Abstract

A neutral exopolysaccharide (EPS), designated LPC-1, was isolated from the culture of Lactobacillus plantarum C88 and purified by ion-exchange and gel-permeation chromatography. LPC-1 had an average molecular weight of 1.15 × 10(6) Da, and it was composed of galactose and glucose with a molar ratio of 1:2. The antioxidant activity of LPC-1 was evaluated with the in vitro scavenging abilities on hydroxyl and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals. The results indicated that LPC-1 had good scavenging ability on hydroxyl radicals. Furthermore, the protective effect of LPC-1 on H(2)O(2)-induced Caco-2 cells oxidative injury was investigated. As results, LPC-1 inhibited the formation of malondialdehyde (MDA) and raised the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and total antioxidant capacities (T-AOC) in a dose-dependent manner. These results demonstrate that the EPS from L. plantarum C88 has antioxidant effects that may involve scavenging of reactive oxygen species (ROS), up-regulation of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant activities, and reduction of lipid peroxidation.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Enhanced activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase in murine hepatocytes and erythrocytes, as well as decreased levels of malondialdehyde by EPS, have been reported.

    “Enhanced activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase in murine hepatocytes and erythrocytes, as well as decreased levels of malondialdehyde by EPS, have been reported [115,127,128].”
  • Mechanisms by which bacterial EPS can exert antioxidant activity may include degradation of superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide through ROS scavenging activity, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, reduction of metal ion chelating activity, and up-regulation of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant activities.

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.
