Abstract

The present study aimed to evaluate structural characteristics of a polysaccharides, SCP2-1, isolated from Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill (S. chinensis) and to assess its improvement on cognitive dysfunction caused by excessive neuroinflammation. Structural characterization indicated that SCP2-1 was composed of glucose and galactose in a molar ratio of 8.78:1.23 with molecular weight of 5.388 kDa. The main linkages of the glycosidic bonds of SCP2-1were 1,4-linked-Glcp, 1,4-linked-Galp, 1-linked-Galp and 1,4,6-linked-Galp. The evaluation of behavioral pharmacology and the detection of biochemical markers exhibited that SCP2-1 could improve LPS-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice, ameliorate excessive inflammatory response. The results showed that SCP2-1 could ameliorated the animals' exploration time of novel arm in Y maze test, shortened the escape latency of mice in MWM test, and increased the exploration time of new object in NOR test. What's more, mice could improve histopathological changes induced by LPS, suppress the over-activation of glial cells, decrease the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, increase the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines, reduce the levels of NLRP3, M-caspaes-1, which may further induce the decrease of excessive deposition of Aβ. Furthermore, SCP2-1 could inhibit the over-activation of NF-κB and the hyperphosphorylation of P38 MAPK pathway.

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.
