Protective effect of Potentilla anserine polysaccharide (PAP) on hydrogen peroxide induced apoptosis in murine splenic lymphocytes

Chemical characterization of lycium barbarum polysaccharides and its inhibition against liver oxidative injury of high-fat mice

“…In recent years, lycium barbarum polysaccharides and its derivatives from animal, plants and fungus have been widely investigated in structures and bioactivities [11,12]. Many beneficial health properties of lycium barbarum polysaccharides are attributed to their antioxidant activities [13][14][15].…”

Chemical characterization of Lycium barbarum polysaccharides and their reducing myocardial injury in ischemia/reperfusion of rat heart

“…Fruit from Lycium barbarum L. in the family Solanaceae is well-known in traditional Chinese herbal medicine and nowadays has been widely used as a popular functional food, with a large variety of beneficial effects, such as reducing blood glucose and serum lipids, anti-aging, immuno-modulating, anticancer, anti-fatigue, and male fertility-facilitating [3][4][5][6][7]. The bioactive components of L. barbarum fruit have been mainly attributed to its polysaccharide-protein complex (LBP), which contains several fractions separated by ion exchange chromatography and size exclusion chromatography [8][9][10][11][12].…”

Polysaccharide extracted from Potentilla anserina L ameliorate acute hypobaric hypoxia‐induced brain impairment in rats

“…The content of polysaccharide is more than 30%, and strong antioxidant activities of the polysaccharide from Potentilla anserina L (PAP) have been proven in our lab (Wang et al, 2010;Zhao et al, 2013). Furthermore, PAP has been reported with multi potential activities: immune system regulation, antivirus, antiaging, promotion of reproductive system function, neurological protection, reduced intracellular oxidative damages, dose-dependently inhibited apoptosis, overcame dexamethasone-induced oxidative stress, and other physiological activities (Hu et al, 2010;Jiong-Ran et al, 2010;Ting-Jun, Xue-Hong, Jiong-Ran, Ying-Yi, & Rong-Liang, 2009;Zhao, Cai, Hong, Shan, & Xiao, 2008). In the present study, this research is aimed to study the role of PAP on ameliorating HACE brain injury in rats and explore some of the underlining potential molecular mechanisms.…”

“…According to reports, PAP possesses many physiological and pharmacological properties (Hu et al, 2010;Jiong-Ran et al, 2010;Ting-Jun et al, 2009;Wang et al, 2010;Zhao et al, 2008Zhao et al, , 2013. According to our knowledge, there is no study related to the preventative effect of PAP in HACE.…”
