Abstract:

The objective of this study was to set up the mice hyperlipidemic model to observe the pharmacological effects of mycelia zinc polysaccharide (MZPS) of Pholiota nameko SW-02 on lipid metabolism and oxidative stress. IR spectrum of MZPS showed typical structure of fungi polysaccharides. The zinc content, determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry, was 16.68±0.73 mg/g. By the analysis of GC and HPGPC, the MZPS was composed of glucose, mannose, galactose and arabinose, and the weight-average molecular weight was 3.64×10(4) Da. The model of hyperlipidemic mice was established by perfusion high-fat emulsion, which caused hyperlipidemia and an increase in oxidative stress. The results showed that the supplementation of MZPS could improve blood lipid levels (TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C and VLDL-C), liver lipid levels (TC and TG) and antioxidant status (SOD, T-AOC, MDA and LPO). In addition, the histopathological observations of mice livers and the glutamate pyruvate transaminase activities indicated that the MZPS could attenuate liver cell injury. These results demonstrated that the MZPS might be effective in lowering lipid and protecting against high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemia and non-alcoholic fatty liver.
