Extraction, purification and antitumor activity of a water-soluble polysaccharide from the roots of Polygala tenuifolia

One polysaccharide PTP was isolated and purified from the roots of Polygala tenuifolia. It consisted of galactose, glucose and galactose in the ratio of 3.1:3.7:2.5, and a small amount of rhamnose, mannose and xylose. 17 general amino acids were identified to be components of the protein-bound polysaccharide analyzed by automatic amino acid analyzer. In order to test the anti-cancer activity of PTP, we investigated its effect against the growth of human ovarian cancer cells SKOV3 in vitro and in ovarian cancer rats. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and glutathione (GSH) in SKOV3 cells following PTP treatment were also quantified to explore the possible mechanism underlying the antitumor activity of the polysaccharide. The result showed that PTP is effective on inhibiting the proliferation of SKOV3 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, treatment with PTP caused a rapid depletion of intracellular GSH content and accumulation of intracellular ROS, thus resulting in the apoptosis, which may prove to be a pivotal mechanism for its cancer protection action. In addition, a significant tumor growth inhibition effect was observed in nude mice after PTP administration for 7 weeks. All above indicated PTP could be beneficial towards ovarian cancer therapy.

Recycling of spent shiitake substrate for production of the oyster mushroom,Pleurotus sajor-caju

Pleurotus sajor-caju was produced on a basal medium containing spent shiitake substrate plus 10% wheat bran and 10% millet. An analysis of the fibrous composition of the spent shiitake substrate revealed that 85% of the original hemicellulose, 44% of the original cellulose and 77% of the original lignin was not consumed during production of a full crop (78% biological efficiency) of shiitake (63-day harvest period). To produce P. sajor-caju, the spent shiitake substrate was ground, air dried, supplemented, pasteurized with live steam and spawned. Highest yields (79% biological efficiency) of P. sajor-caju were obtained by supplementing the spent shiitake basal medium with 12% soybean and 1% CaCO₃. Increases in percentage biological efficiency and mushroom size were positively correlated with increasing levels of CaCO₃ added to the basal medium.     

Broiler litter supplementation improves storage and feed-nutritional value of sawdust-based spent mushroom substrate

A study was conducted to determine the effect of broiler poultry litter (BL) supplementation to spent mushroom substrate (SMS) on its storage and feed-nutritional value improvement. In Exp. 1, the sawdust-based SMS from a king oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) farm was mixed with BL at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% levels on a wet basis and deepstack stored for short-term (1-wk) and long-term (3-wk). At 1-wk of short-term deepstack storage, SMS with more than 50% BL levels showed favorable conservation. At 3-wk of long-term storage, all treatments except for BL 100% had a serious fungal problem. Based on chemical parameters, BL-blending to SMS practically improved the feed-nutritional value of the mixtures. Since the deepstacking method was not effective for long term storage, in Exp. 2 SMS ensiled with or without BL was attempted to improve long-term (3-wk) storage. All the ensiled treatments (SMS 100%, SMS 75%+BL 25% and SMS 50%+BL 50%) had desirable fermentation. As in deepstacking, BL-blending to SMS improved the nutritive value of the ensiled mixtures. The populations of total bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and yeast were highest (P<0.05) when 75% SMS was blended with 25% BL. In conclusion, blending 50% or more BL with SMS was effective for the short-term (1-wk) deepstack storage. For long-term (3-wk) storage of SMS, an ensiling method was effective with or without the addition of BL.

Molasses and microbial inoculants improve fermentability and silage quality of cotton waste-based spent mushroom substrate

A small-silo study was conducted to develop an effective ensiling storage method for the use of cotton waste-based spent mushroom substrate (SMS) as an animal feed. The SMS was ensiled with 5% molasses (DM basis), 0.5% (v/w) lactic acid bacteria (LAB, Lactobacillus plantarum) inoculant or 0.5% (v/w) yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) inoculant. The treatments included 100% SMS (control), 95% SMS+5% molasses (T1), 95% SMS+5% molasses+0.5% LAB (T2) and 95% SMS+5% molasses+5% LAB+0.5% yeast (T3). The treatments were ensiled for 10. Change in chemical compositions was little (P>0.05) according to the ensiling process and treatments. Compared with those before ensiling, 100% SMS (control) after ensiling showed unstable fermentative properties with high pH (5.2) and little lactic acid production. Compared with the ensiled control, treatments (T1, T2 and T3) resulted in decreased pH, 18-20 times higher concentrations of lactic acid, and greater populations of total bacteria (P<0.07), LAB and yeast (P<0.07). The addition of 5% molasses, 0.5% LAB and 0.5% yeast (T3) to the SMS resulted in the lowest pH (4.25) and the greatest microbial populations. Treatment T3 was selected for a large scale silo study which was ensiled for 10, 20 and 30 d. As in the small-silo study, the T3 treatment showed favorable fermentative and microbial parameters, compared with the control, by decreasing pH and increasing lactic acid concentrations, LAB and yeast populations. The minimum ensiling period was 20 d, when pH was reasonably low and LAB and yeast populations were greatest. In conclusion, molasses and microbial inoculation improved silage quality of SMS.

Expression and purification of a recombinant antibacterial peptide, cecropin, from Escherichia coli

Insect cecropins are small basic polypeptides synthesized in fat body and hemocytes in response to bacterial infections or hypodermic injuries. To explore a new approach for high expression of soluble cecropin in Escherichia coli cells, we fused the sequence encoding Musca domestica mature cecropin (named Mdmcec) in-frame to thioredoxin (TRX) gene to construct an expression vector pTRX-6His-Mdmcec. An enterokinase cleavage site was introduced between the 6xHis-tag and Mdmcec to facilitate final release of the recombinant Mdmcec. The fusion protein TRX-6His-Mdmcec was purified successfully by HisTrap HP affinity column and a high yield of 48.0mg purified fusion protein was obtained from 1L culture. Recombinant Mdmcec was readily obtained by enterokinase cleavage of the fusion protein followed by HPLC chromatography, and 11.2mg pure active recombinant Mdmcec was obtained from 1L E. coli culture. The molecular mass of recombinant Mdmcec determined by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is identical to that of native cecropin. Analysis of recombinant Mdmcec by circular dichroism (CD) indicated that recombinant Mdmcec contained predominantly alpha-helix with some random coil. Antimicrobial activity assays demonstrated that recombinant Mdmcec had a broad spectrum of activity against fungi, Gram-positive and negative bacteria. The procedure described in this study will provide a reliable and simple method for production of different cationic peptides for biological studies.

Utilization of spent agro-residues from mushroom cultivation for biogas production

Summary Various spent agro-residues obtained after cultivation of the edible mushroom Pleurotus sajor-caju were used in anaerobic digestors for production of biogas. The changes that take place in the residues during bioconversion were quantified in terms of composition of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, carbon and nitrogen. These mycostraws resulted in increased biogas production over the untreated ones, which varied from 21.5% in the case of spent bagasse to 38.8% in the case of spent paddy straw. The increased biogas generation by the spent residues seems to be due to the increased susceptibility to digestion and more favourable C/N ratio of the residues. Offprint requests to: V. S.

Isolation, purification and structural investigation of a water-soluble polysaccharide from Solanum lyratum Thunb

Polysaccharides, extracted from the herbs of Chinese natural Solanum lyratum Thunb (SLT), which is a traditional Chinese medicine with hot water and 0.04 M sodium hydroxide successively, were fractionated and purified by ion-exchange and gel-filtration chromatography. According to methylation, periodate oxidation, NMR spectroscopy, partial and graded acid and enzymic hydrolysis analysis, the results indicated the D-glucan to be linear and to contain both (1-->3)- and (1-->4)-linkages. The anomeric NMR and IR spectra measurements confirmed that the sugar residues were beta-glycosidically linked.     

Production of a hypoglycemic, extracellular polysaccharide from the submerged culture of the mushroom, Phellinus linteus

Mycelial growth and extracellular polysaccharide production of Phellinus linteus were optimal at pH 5 and 25 °C. Maximum biomass production (14.2 g l^–1) was after 15 d of cultivation, whereas, extracellular polysaccharide was maximal (3.5 g l^–1) after 21 d. The hypoglycemic effect of the polysaccharide, investigated in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, decreased plasma glucose, total cholesterol and triacylglycerol concentrations by 49%, 32%, and 28%, respectively, and aspartate aminotransferase activity by 20%. The results indicate the potential of this polysaccharide to prevent hyperglycemia in diabetic patients.

Production of spent mushroom substrate hydrolysates useful for cultivation of Lactococcus lactis by dilute sulfuric acid, cellulase and xylanase treatment

Spent mushroom substrate (SMS) was treated with dilute sulfuric acid followed by cellulase and xylanase treatment to produce hydrolysates that could be used as the basis for media for the production of value added products. A L9 (3⁴) orthogonal experiment was performed to optimize the acid treatment process. Pretreatment with 6% (w/w) dilute sulfuric acid at 120 °C for 120 min provided the highest reducing sugar yield of 267.57 g/kg SMS. No furfural was detected in the hydrolysates. Exposure to 20 PFU of cellulase and 200 XU of xylanase per gram of pretreated SMS at 40 °C resulted in the release of 79.85 g/kg or reducing sugars per kg acid pretreated SMS. The dilute sulfuric acid could be recycled to process fresh SMS four times. SMS hydrolysates neutralized with ammonium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, or calcium hydroxide could be used as the carbon source for cultivation of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis W28 and a cell density of 2.9 × 10¹¹ CFU/mL could be obtained. The results provide a foundation for the development of value-added products based on SMS.     

Extraction, purification and characterization of a sweetnessmodifying component from Ziziphus jujuba

An aqueous ethanol extract of Ziziphus jujuba leaves was fractionatedby solvent extraction. The active chloroform-ethanol fractionwas separated into two components - ZjE-A, which had surfaceactive properties, and ZjE-B, which did not. Bioassay by psychophysicaltests on humans revealed sweetness-modifying activity in ZjE-A,but not in ZjE-B. The combined chemistry and bioassay resultsindicated that the active component is either closely associatedwith, or is itself, an amphipathic molecule and supported thenotion of a role for surface active properties in the tastemodifyingaction of Z. jujuba. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and otherdata indicated and/or suggested that the active component inZ. jujuba consists of a group of compounds (ziziphins), whichprobably are triterpene saponin glycosides, as had been indicatedpreviously for the taste-modifying component in Gymnema sylvestre(gymnemic acids). However, the ziziphins differed from the gymnemicacids in TLC mobility and in coloration by a Liebermann-Burchardreagent. Therefore, the ziziphins are not the same compoundsas the gymnemic acids. ZjE-A is a potent, purified component,consisting of 60–80% ziziphins, which should be usefulfor future physiological and chemical studies. ^*A preliminary report of this research was presented at theChemical Senses and Intake Society Annual Meeting, Natick, MA,April, 1977.
