Structure, biology, evolution, and medical importance of sulfated fucans and galactans 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Sulfated fucans and galactans are strongly anionic polysaccharides found in marine organisms. Their structures vary among species, but their major features are conserved among phyla. Sulfated fucans are found in marine brown algae and echinoderms, whereas sulfated galactans occur in red and green algae, marine angiosperms, tunicates (ascidians), and sea urchins. Polysaccharides with 3-linked, beta-galactose units are highly conserved in some taxonomic groups of marine organisms and show a strong tendency toward 4-sulfation in algae and marine angiosperms, and 2-sulfation in invertebrates. Marine algae mainly express sulfated polysaccharides with complex, heterogeneous structures, whereas marine invertebrates synthesize sulfated fucans and sulfated galactans with regular repetitive structures. These polysaccharides are structural components of the extracellular matrix. Sulfated fucans and galactans are involved in sea urchin fertilization acting as species-specific inducers of the sperm acrosome reaction. Because of this function the structural evolution of sulfated fucans could be a component in the speciation process. The algal and invertebrate polysaccharides are also potent anticoagulant agents of mammalian blood and represent a potential source of compounds for antithrombotic therapies. 相似文献

Three species of oversulfated fucans having different sulfate contents (the ratio of sulfate/total sugar residues, 1.38-1.98) were prepared by chemical sulfation of a fucan sulfate (sulfate/sugar ratio, 1.28) isolated from the brown seaweed Ecklonia kurome. The anticoagulant activities of the oversulfated fucans were compared with that of a parent fucan with respect to activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT) in plasma. The respective activities (for APTT and TT) of the oversulfated fucans increased to 110-119% and 108-140% of the original values with increase in their sulfate content. The anticoagulant activity with respect to APTT (173 units/mg) of an oversulfated fucan (sulfate/sugar ratio, 1.98) was higher than that (167 units/mg) of heparin used as a standard. The heparin cofactor II-mediated antithrombin activity of the oversulfated fucans also increased significantly with increase in sulfate content. The maximum activity was higher than those of the parent fucan and heparin. However, the increment of the anticoagulant and the antithrombin effects gradually decreased with increase in the sulfate content of the fucans. These results indicate that the effects of the fucan sulfate are dependent on its sulfate content until a plateau is reached. 相似文献

A linear sulfated fucan with a regular repeating sequence of [3)-alpha-L-Fucp-(2SO4)-(1-->3)-alpha-L-Fucp-(4SO4)-(1-->3)-alpha-L-Fucp-(2,4SO4)-(1-->3)-alpha-L-Fucp-(2SO4)-(1-->]n is an anticoagulant polysaccharide mainly due to thrombin inhibition mediated by heparin cofactor II. No specific enzymatic or chemical method is available for the preparation of tailored oligosaccharides from sulfated fucans. We employ an apparently nonspecific approach to cleave this polysaccharide based on mild hydrolysis with acid. Surprisingly, the linear sulfated fucan was cleaved by mild acid hydrolysis on an ordered sequence. Initially a 2-sulfate ester of the first fucose unit is selectively removed. Thereafter the glycosidic linkage between the nonsulfated fucose residue and the subsequent 4-sulfated residue is preferentially cleaved by acid hydrolysis, forming oligosaccharides with well-defined size. The low-molecular-weight derivatives obtained from the sulfated fucan were employed to determine the requirement for interaction of this polysaccharide with heparin cofactor II and to achieve complete thrombin inhibition. The linear sulfated fucan requires significantly longer chains than mammalian glycosaminoglycans to achieve anticoagulant activity. A slight decrease in the molecular size of the sulfated fucan dramatically reduces its effect on thrombin inactivation mediated by heparin cofactor II. Sulfated fucan with approximately 45 tetrasaccharide repeating units binds to heparin cofactor II but is unable to link efficiently the plasma inhibitor and thrombin. This last effect requires chains with approximately 100 or more tetrasaccharide repeating units. We speculate that the template mechanism may predominate over the allosteric effect in the case of the linear sulfated fucan inactivation of thrombin in the presence of heparin cofactor II. 相似文献

Is there a correlation between structure and anticoagulant action of sulfated galactans and sulfated fucans? 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
We attempted to identify the specific structural features in sulfated galactans and sulfated fucans that confer anticoagulant activity. For this study we employed a variety of invertebrate polysaccharides with simple structures composed of well-defined units of oligosaccharides. Our results indicate that a 2-O-sulfated, 3-linked alpha-L-galactan, but not a alpha-L-fucan with a similar molecular size, is a potent thrombin inhibitor mediated by antithrombin or heparin cofactor II. The difference between the activities of these two polysaccharides is not very pronounced when factor Xa replaced thrombin. The occurrence of 2,4-di-O-sulfated units is an amplifying motif for 3-linked alpha-fucan-enhanced thrombin inhibition by antithrombin. If we replace antithrombin by heparin cofactor II, then the major structural requirement for the activity becomes single 4-O-sulfated fucose units. The presence of 2-O-sulfated fucose residues always had a deleterious effect on anticoagulant activity. Overall, our results indicate that the structural requirements for interaction of sulfated galactans and sulfated fucans with coagulation cofactors and their target proteases are stereospecific and not merely a consequence of their charge density and sulfate content. 相似文献

Marine alga is an abundant source of sulfated polysaccharides with potent anticoagulant activity. However, several attempts to identify the specific structural features in these compounds, which confer the biological activity, failed due to their complex, heterogeneous structure. We isolated and characterized several sulfated alpha-L-galactans and sulfated alpha-L-fucans from marine invertebrates. In contrast to the algal fucans and galactans, these invertebrate polysaccharides have a simple structure, composed of well-defined units of oligosaccharides. We employed two of these compounds to elucidate their structure-anticoagulant action relationship. Our results indicate that a 2-sulfated, 3-linked alpha-L-galactan, but not an alpha-L-fucan, is a potent thrombin inhibitor mediated by antithrombin or heparin cofactor II. The difference between the activities of these two polysaccharides is not very pronounced when factor Xa replaces thrombin. Thus, the anticoagulant activity of sulfated galactan and sulfated fucan is not merely a consequence of their charge density. The interaction of these polysaccharides with coagulation cofactors and their target proteases are specific. Identification of specific structural requirements in sulfated galactans and sulfated fucans necessary for interaction with coagulation cofactors is an essential step for a more rational approach to develop new anticoagulant and antithrombotic drugs. 相似文献

The minimum concentrations of heparin, dermatan sulfate, hirudin, and D-Phe-Pro-ArgCH2Cl required to delay the onset of prothrombin activation in contact-activated plasma also prolong the lag phases associated with both factor X and factor V activation. Heparin and dermatan sulfate prolong the lag phases associated with the activation of the three proteins by catalyzing the inhibition of endogenously generated thrombin. Thrombin usually activates factor V and factor VIII during coagulation. The smallest fragment of heparin able to catalyze thrombin inhibition by antithrombin III is an octadecasaccharide with high affinity for antithrombin III. In contrast, a dermatan sulfate hexasaccharide with high affinity for heparin cofactor II can catalyze thrombin inhibition by heparin cofactor II. A highly sulfated bis(lactobionic acid amide), LW10082 (Mr 2288), which catalyzes thrombin inhibition by heparin cofactor II and has both antithrombotic and anticoagulant activities, has been synthesized. In this study, we determined how the minimum concentration of LW10082 required to delay the onset of intrinsic prothrombin activation achieved this effect. We demonstrate that, like heparin and dermatan sulfate, LW10082 delays the onset of intrinsic prothrombin activation by prolonging the lag phase associated with both factor X and factor V activation. In addition, LW10082 is approximately 25% as effective as heparin and 10 times as effective as dermatan sulfate in its ability to delay the onset of prothrombin activation. The strong anticoagulant action of LW10082 is consistent with previous reports which show that the degree of sulfation is an important parameter for the catalytic effectiveness of sulfated polysaccharides on thrombin inhibition. 相似文献

We have characterized the structure of a sulfated d-galactan from the red algae Botryocladia occidentalis. The following repeating structure (-4-alpha-d-Galp-1-->3-beta-d-Galp-1-->) was found for this polysaccharide, but with a variable sulfation pattern. Clearly one-third of the total alpha-units are 2,3-di-O-sulfated and another one-third are 2-O-sulfated. The algal sulfated d-galactan has a potent anticoagulant activity (similar potency as unfractionated heparin) due to enhanced inhibition of thrombin and factor Xa by antithrombin and/or heparin cofactor II. We also extended the experiments to several sulfated polysaccharides from marine invertebrates with simple structures, composed of a single repeating structure. A 2-O- or 3-O-sulfated l-galactan (as well as a 2-O-sulfated l-fucan) has a weak anticoagulant action when compared with the potent action of the algal sulfated d-galactan. Possibly, the addition of two sulfate esters to a single alpha-galactose residue has an "amplifying effect" on the anticoagulant action, which cannot be totally ascribed to the increased charge density of the polymer. These results indicate that the wide diversity of polysaccharides from marine alga and invertebrates is a useful tool to elucidate structure/anticoagulant activity relationships. 相似文献

The major acidic polysaccharide from the brown alga Laminaria cichorioides is a complex and heterogeneous sulfated fucan. Its preponderant structure is a 2,3-disulfated, 4-linked alpha-fucose unit. The purified polysaccharide has a potent anticoagulant activity, as estimated by APTT assay ( approximately 40 IU/mg), which is mainly mediated by thrombin inhibition by heparin cofactor II. It also accelerates thrombin and factor Xa inhibition by antithrombin but at a lower potency. Sulfated fucan from L. cichorioides is a promising anticoagulant polysaccharide and a possible alternative for an antithrombotic compound due to its preferential heparin cofactor II-dependent activity. 相似文献

We investigated the mechanisms of anticoagulant activity mediated by sulfated galactans. The anticoagulant activity of sulfated polysaccharides is achieved mainly through potentiation of plasma cofactors, which are the natural inhibitors of coagulation proteases. Our results indicated the following. 1) Structural requirements for the interaction of sulfated galactans with coagulation inhibitors and their target proteases are not merely a consequence of their charge density. 2) The structural basis of this interaction is complex because it involves naturally heterogeneous polysaccharides but depends on the distribution of sulfate groups and on monosaccharide composition. 3) Sulfated galactans require significantly longer chains than heparin to achieve anticoagulant activity. 4) Possibly, it is the bulk structure of the sulfated galactan, and not a specific minor component as in heparin, that determines its interaction with antithrombin. 5) Sulfated galactans of approximately 15 to approximately 45 kDa bind to antithrombin but are unable to link the plasma inhibitor and thrombin. This last effect requires a molecular size above 45 kDa. 6) Sulfated galactan and heparin bind to different sites on antithrombin. 7) Sulfated galactans are less effective than heparin at promoting antithrombin conformational activation. Overall, these observations indicate that a different mechanism predominates over the conformational activation of antithrombin in ensuring the antithrombin-mediated anticoagulant activity of the sulfated galactans. Possibly, sulfated galactan connects antithrombin and thrombin, holding the protease in an inactive form. The conformational activation of antithrombin and the consequent formation of a covalent complex with thrombin appear to be less important for the anticoagulant activity of sulfated galactan than for heparin. Our results demonstrate that the paradigm of heparin-antithrombin interaction cannot be extended to other sulfated polysaccharides. Each type of polysaccharide may form a particular complex with the plasma inhibitor and the target protease. 相似文献

Sulfated polysaccharides, like the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) heparin, are known to exhibit anticoagulant properties when certain structural features are present. The structural requirement for this action is well-established for heparin, in which a pentasaccharide motif plays a key role for keeping the high-affinity interaction to antithrombin. Over the last years of this glycomic era, several novel anticoagulant sulfated glycans have been described. Those from marine sources have been awakening special attention mainly because of their impressive anticoagulant effects together with structural uniqueness. The commonest of these glycans are the sulfated fucans (SFs), the sulfated galactans (SGs), and the marine invertebrate GAGs like the fucosylated chondroitin sulfate and ascidian dermatan sulfate. Since these marine sulfated glycans do not bear within their polymeric chains the specific pentasaccharide motif of heparin, other structural features must be necessary to trigger the anticoagulant effect. The objective of this report is to present the anticoagulant motifs of the marine SFs, SGs and GAGs. 相似文献

Eight different sulfated polysaccharides were isolated from Chlorophyta. All exhibited thrombin inhibition through a heparin cofactor II (HCII)-dependent pathway, and their effects on the inhibition of thrombin were more potent than those of heparin or dermatan sulfate. In particular, remarkably potent thrombin inhibition was found for the sulfated polysaccharides isolated from the Codiales. In the presence of these sulfated polysaccharides, both the recombinant HCII (rHCII) variants Lys(173)-->Leu and Arg(189)-->His, which are defective in interactions with heparin and dermatan sulfate, respectively, inhibited thrombin in a manner similar to native rHCII. This result indicates that the binding site of HCII for each of these eight sulfated polysaccharides is different from the heparin- or dermatan sulfate-binding site. All the sulfated polysaccharides but RS-2 significantly stimulated the inhibition of thrombin by an N-terminal deletion mutant of HCII (rHCII-Delta74). Furthermore, hirudin(54-65) decreased only 2-5-fold the rate of thrombin inhibition by HCII stimulated by the sulfated polysaccharides, while HD22, a single-stranded DNA aptamer that binds exosite II of thrombin, produced an approximately 10-fold reduction in this rate. These results suggest that, unlike heparin and dermatan sulfate, the sulfated polysaccharides isolated from Chlorophyta activate HCII primarily by an allosteric mechanism different from displacement and template mechanisms. 相似文献

Heparinoid-active two sulfated polysaccharides isolated from marine green algae Monostroma nitidum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Two sulfated polysaccharides WF1 and WF3 were isolated from marine green algae Monostroma nitidum, and their structural characteristics were determined. Anticoagulant activities of WF1 and WF3 were evaluated by assays of the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT), antithrombin and anticoagulation factor Xa activities. The results showed that WF1 and WF3 had similar high contents of rhamnose, whereas their sulfate contents, sulfation positions, molecular sizes and linkage patterns of rhamnose residues were different. The bioassay results demonstrated that WF1 and WF3 had high anticoagulant activities, and were potent thrombin inhibitors mediated by heparin cofactor II, especially WF3. They also hastened thrombin and coagulation factor Xa inhibition by potentiating antithrombin III, but at a lower effectiveness. The differences of anticoagulant activities between WF1 and WF3 were directly due to their structural features discrepancy. 相似文献

Antithrombin activity and disaccharide composition of dermatan sulfate from different bovine tissues
Dermatan sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan that selectively inhibits the action of thrombin through interaction with heparin cofactor II. Unlike heparin it does not interact with other coagulation factors and is able to inhibit thrombin associated with clots. This property has made dermatan sulfate an attractive candidate as an antithrombotic drug. Previous studies have showed that dermatan sulfate derived from porcine/bovine intestinal mucosa/skin or marine invertebrates is capable of stimulating heparin cofactor II-mediated thrombin inhibition in vitro. This biological activity is reported for the first time in this study using dermatan sulfate derived from mammalian tissues other than intestinal mucosa or skin. Ten different bovine tissues including the aorta, diaphragm, eyes, large and small intestine, esophagus, skin, tendon, tongue, and tongue skin were used to prepare dermatan sulfate-enriched fractions by anion exchange chromatography and acetone precipitation. Heparin cofactor II/dermatan sulfate-mediated thrombin inhibition measured in vitro revealed activity comparable to or higher than the commercial standard with 2-fold differences observed between some tissues. Analysis of the extracted dermatan sulfate using fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis revealed significant differences in the relative percentage of all the mono-sulfated disaccharides, in particular the predominant mammalian disaccharide uronic acid-->N-acetyl-D-galactosamine-4-O-sulfate, confirming previous reports regarding variations in sulfation in dermatan sulfate from different tissues. Overall, these findings demonstrate that dermatan sulfate extracted from a range of bovine tissues exhibits in vitro antithrombin activity equivalent to or higher than that observed for porcine intestinal mucosa, identifying additional sources of dermatan sulfate as potential antithrombotic agents. 相似文献

Sulfated polysaccharides from the green algae Ulva conglobata were isolated and prepared by extraction in hot water, precipitation with ethanol and purification by ion-exchange and size-exclusion column chromatography. The characterizations of the sulfated polysaccharides were defined, and containing 23.04–35.20% sulfate ester groups, 10.82–14.91% uronic acid and 3.82–4.51% protein. Gas chromatography analysis shows that the sulfated polysaccharides from Ulva conglobata are mainly consisted of rhamnose with variable contents of glucose and fucose, trace amounts of xylose, glactose and mannose. The anticoagulant properties of the sulfated polysaccharides were compared with those of heparin by studying the activated partial thromboplastin time using normal human plasma. The sulfated polysaccharide from Ulva conglobata collected in Qingdao, China is the most potent among the sulfated polysaccharides tested. The mechanism of anticoagulant activity mediated by the sulfated polysaccharides is due to the direct inhibition of thrombin and the potentiation of heparin cofactor II. 相似文献

A polysaccharide was isolated from marine green algae Monostroma latissimum, and its chemical characteristic and anticoagulant activity were investigated. The results demonstrated that the polysaccharide was high rhamnose-containing sulfated polysaccharide, and was mainly composed of 1,2-linked l-rhamnose residues with sulfate groups substituted at positions C-3 and/or C-4. The sulfated polysaccharide exhibited high anticoagulant activities by assays of the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT). The anticoagulant property of the sulfated polysaccharide was mainly attributed to powerful potentiation thrombin by heparin cofactor II. 相似文献

Sulphated polysaccharides have many biological functions, which depend on binding of highly specific carbohydrate structures to proteins. NMR spectroscopy is a technique capable of detailed structural elucidation of these polysaccharides, and can be used in applications ranging from routine analysis to research into covalent and conformational aspects of polysaccharide structure. This technique can be used to characterise sequence variations in heparin samples. The NMR-determined solution conformation of heparin has been used to predict binding sites on the surface of heparin-binding proteins. Sulphation patterns for dermatan sulphates of marine invertebrates have been determined. Their anticoagulant effects depend on an exact pattern of sulphate substitution. A small alteration in dermatan sulphate structure, from 4-O-sulphated to 6-O-sulphated galactosamine, leads to almost complete loss of anticoagulant activity in spite of an overall high level of sulphation. A fucosylated chondroitin sulphate isolated from sea cucumber has anticoagulant and antithrombotic activity depending on its sulphated fucose branches. The anticoagulant activity of algal fucans has been compared with that of regular, linear sulphated fucans from marine echinoderms; again high activity appears to correlate with the presence of sulphated fucose branches. 相似文献

Although fibrin-bound thrombin is resistant to inactivation by heparin.antithrombin and heparin.heparin cofactor II complexes, indirect studies in plasma systems suggest that the dermatan sulfate.heparin cofactor II complex can inhibit fibrin-bound thrombin. Herein we demonstrate that fibrin monomer produces a 240-fold decrease in the heparin-catalyzed rate of thrombin inhibition by heparin cofactor II but reduces the dermatan sulfate-catalyzed rate only 3-fold. The protection of fibrin-bound thrombin from inhibition by heparin.heparin cofactor II reflects heparin-mediated bridging of thrombin to fibrin that results in the formation of a ternary heparin.thrombin.fibrin complex. This complex, formed as a result of three binary interactions (thrombin.fibrin, thrombin.heparin, and heparin.fibrin), limits accessibility of heparin-catalyzed inhibitors to thrombin and induces conformational changes at the active site of the enzyme. In contrast, dermatan sulfate binds to thrombin but does not bind to fibrin. Although a ternary dermatan sulfate. thrombin.fibrin complex forms, without dermatan sulfate-mediated bridging of thrombin to fibrin, only two binary interactions exist (thrombin.fibrin and thrombin. dermatan sulfate). Consequently, thrombin remains susceptible to inactivation by heparin cofactor II. This study explains why fibrin-bound thrombin is susceptible to inactivation by heparin cofactor II in the presence of dermatan sulfate but not heparin. 相似文献

Sulfated fucans, frequently referred to simply as fucans, constitute a class of polysaccharides first isolated in 1913. For many years fucans were regarded only as a potential source of l-fucose, although their anticoagulant activity was known. Even as the potent effects of fucans on physiological systems have become better characterized, structural studies have lagged behind. Recently the search for new drugs has raised increased interest in sulfated fucans. In the past few years, several structures of algal and invertebrate fucans have been solved, and many aspects of their biological activity have been elucidated. From this work emerges a more interesting picture of this class of polysaccharides than was previously suspected. The availability of purified fucans and fucan fractions with simple, but varied structures, in conjunction with the development of new enzymatic tools, demonstrate that the biological properties of sulfated fucans are not only a simple function of their charge density but also are determined by detailed structural features. 相似文献

Sulfated polysaccharides (fucans and fucoidans) from brown algae show several biological activities, including anticoagulant
and anti-inflammatory activities. We have extracted a sulfated heterofucan from the brown seaweed Lobophora variegata by proteolytic digestion, followed by acetone fractionation, molecular sieving, and ion-exchange chromatography. Chemical
analyses and 13C-NMR and IR spectroscopy showed that this fucoidan is composed of fucose, galactose, and sulfate at molar ratios of 1:3:2.
We compared the anticoagulant activity of L. variegata fucoidan with those of a commercial sulfated polysaccharide (also named fucoidan) from Fucus vesiculosus and heparin. The experimental inflammation models utilized in this work revealed that fucoidan from L. variegata inhibits leukocyte migration to the inflammation site. Ear swelling caused by croton oil was also inhibited when sulfated
polysaccharides from F. vesiculosus and L. variegata were used. The precise mechanism of different action between homo-and heterofucans is not clear; nevertheless, the polysaccharides
studied here may have therapeutic potential in inflammatory disorders.

The role of different glycosaminoglycan species from the vessel walls as physiological antithrombotic agents remains controversial. To further investigate this aspect we extracted glycosaminoglycans from human thoracic aorta and saphenous vein. The different species were highly purified and their anticoagulant and antithrombotic activities tested by in vitro and in vivo assays. We observed that dermatan sulfate is the major anticoagulant and antithrombotic among the vessel wall glycosaminoglycans while the bulk of heparan sulfate is a poorly sulfated glycosaminoglycan, devoid of anticoagulant and antithrombotic activities. Minor amounts of particular a heparan sulfate (< 5% of the total arterial glycosaminoglycans) with high anticoagulant activity were also observed, as assessed by its retention on an antithrombin-affinity column. Possibly, this anticoagulant heparan sulfate originates from the endothelial cells and may exert a significant physiological role due to its location in the interface between the vessel wall and the blood. In view of these results we discuss a possible balance between the two glycosaminoglycan-dependent anticoagulant pathways present in the vascular wall. One is based on antithrombin activation by the heparan sulfate expressed by the endothelial cells. The other, which may assume special relevance after vascular endothelial injury, is based on heparin cofactor II activation by the dermatan sulfate proteoglycans synthesized by cells from the subendothelial layer. 相似文献
