Abstract
A novel oligosaccharide (NTRP60-W-2) with an average molecular weight of 1377 Da was isolated and purified from Nicotiana tabacum roots. Its structural characteristics and immunomodulatory properties were investigated. Structural analysis revealed that NTRP60-W-2 was composed exclusively of glucose, featuring →1)-α-D-Glcp-(6→ backbone. Immunological assays demonstrated that NTRP60-W-2 significantly enhanced cell viability, nitric oxide production and cytokine secretion (IL-6 and TNF-α) in RAW264.7 cells. These findings provide a foundation for further exploration of Nicotiana tabacum carbohydrates and their potential biological activities.
期刊介绍：
Carbohydrate Research publishes reports of original research in the following areas of carbohydrate science: action of enzymes, analytical chemistry, biochemistry (biosynthesis, degradation, structural and functional biochemistry, conformation, molecular recognition, enzyme mechanisms, carbohydrate-processing enzymes, including glycosidases and glycosyltransferases), chemical synthesis, isolation of natural products, physicochemical studies, reactions and their mechanisms, the study of structures and stereochemistry, and technological aspects.
Papers on polysaccharides should have a "molecular" component; that is a paper on new or modified polysaccharides should include structural information and characterization in addition to the usual studies of rheological properties and the like. A paper on a new, naturally occurring polysaccharide should include structural information, defining monosaccharide components and linkage sequence.
Papers devoted wholly or partly to X-ray crystallographic studies, or to computational aspects (molecular mechanics or molecular orbital calculations, simulations via molecular dynamics), will be considered if they meet certain criteria. For computational papers the requirements are that the methods used be specified in sufficient detail to permit replication of the results, and that the conclusions be shown to have relevance to experimental observations - the authors'' own data or data from the literature. Specific directions for the presentation of X-ray data are given below under Results and "discussion".
