Polysaccharide fraction from greens of Raphanus sativus alleviates high fat diet-induced obesity

Moon Ho Do et al.

Summary: In high fat diet-induced obese mice, the polysaccharide fraction of radish greens showed anti-obesity activity by reducing weight gain and body fat percentage. This effect was achieved through improving gut barrier function, modulating gut microbiota, and regulating lipid metabolism.

Sulfated polysaccharides from Undaria pinnatifida improved high fat diet-induced metabolic syndrome, gut microbiota dysbiosis and inflammation in BALB/c mice

Pingrui Jiang et al.

Summary: Undaria pinnatifida has shown positive effects on reducing serum lipids and fat accumulation, as well as improving type 2 diabetes. This study demonstrated that sulfated polysaccharides from U. pinnatifida can reduce weight gain, fat accumulation, and metabolic disorders in mice fed with a high-fat diet, while also improving gut microbiota dysbiosis and reducing metabolic endotoxemia. The dose of UPSP has a relationship with its effects on physiological indexes, gut microbiota community, and nutrient utilization.

Review of the relationships among polysaccharides, gut microbiota, and human health

Qianqian Song et al.

Summary: Intestinal flora plays a crucial role in maintaining the balance of the human body's ecosystem. By interacting with polysaccharides, the gut microbiota can be regulated to improve health and prevent disease. Polysaccharides, as prebiotics, have the potential to enhance human health by modulating the composition of gut microbiota.

Extraction, structural analysis, derivatization and antioxidant activity of polysaccharide from Chinese yam

Shiyang Zhou et al.

Summary: The extracted and purified yam polysaccharide showed good antioxidant activity with a molecular weight of 7.28 x 104. The derivatives of yam polysaccharide, especially phosphorylated polysaccharide, had scavenging ability to hydroxyl radicals similar to VC, laying a theoretical foundation for the development of yam polysaccharide-related foods.

Minglei Yu et al.

Summary: Supplementation of Se-rich C. militaris polysaccharides showed anti-obesity effects by reducing serum triglyceride and LDL-C levels, inhibiting inflammation, promoting satiety and thermogenesis in HFD-fed mice. It also modulated gut microbiota by decreasing harmful bacteria and increasing beneficial bacteria, which could potentially be used as functional foods against obesity and dysbiosis.
