Abstract:

Two kinds of polysaccharides,namely SIPa and SIPb,were obtained from the fruit body of Sarcodon imbricatus via isolation and purification. Then,the IR spectra of the products were investigated,and the relative molecular mass and monosaccharide composition of each product were determined by means of high-performance gel permeation chromatography and gas chromatography. Moreover,the antitumor activities of the two products were
evaluated by means of the MTT method. The results show that ( 1) SIPa and SIPb both possess typical infrared absorptions of polysaccharides; ( 2) the sugar chain of SIPa is mainly β-configuration pyranoside; ( 3) the weightaverage relative molecular mass of SIPa and SIPb are respectively 2. 12 × 105 and 1. 05 × 104 ; ( 4) SIPa is a kind of glucan while SIPb is a kind of heteroglycan containing fucose,mannose,glucose and galactose in a molar ratio of 8. 93: 1: 4. 25: 29. 18; and ( 5) both SIPa and SIPb remarkably inhibit the growth of human liver cancer cell line Hep G2 and human ovarian cancer cell line HO-8910 in a dose-dependent manner.
