Schisandra chinensis polysaccharide; selenium nanoparticle; intestinal inflammatory injury
This study synthesized SCP-conjugated selenium nanoparticles (SCP-Se NPs) and investigated their effect on intestinal injury. The results showed that SCP-Se NPs could effectively alleviate LPS-induced diarrhea, intestinal tissue injury, and tight junction destruction, and decrease the elevated inflammatory cytokine expression levels. SCP-Se NPs may serve as a good candidate for preventing and treating enteritis in the livestock and poultry industry.
Simple Summary Animal enteritis caused by Gram-negative bacterial infection is one of the most common and harmful diseases in the livestock and poultry industry. Schisandra chinensis polysaccharide (SCP) has potential effects on the treatment of intestinal injury. Selenium nanoparticle modification can improve the bioactivity of polysaccharides. In this study, SCP-conjugated selenium nanoparticles (SCP-Se NPs) were firstly synthesized, and their effect on intestinal injury was also investigated. The results showed that SCP-Se NPs could more effectively alleviate LPS-induced diarrhea, intestinal tissue injury, and tight junction destruction and decrease the elevated inflammatory cytokine expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 compared with SCP in mouse models, suggesting that SCP-Se NPs can serve as a good candidate for preventing and treating enteritis in the livestock and poultry industry. Schisandra chinensis polysaccharide (SCP) is an experimental therapeutic for the treatment of intestinal injury. Selenium nanoparticle modification can improve the bioactivity of polysaccharides. In this study, SCP was firstly extracted and purified by a DEAE-52 column, then SCP-Selenium nanoparticles (SCP-Se NPs) were prepared, and the procedure was optimized. Thereafter, the obtained SCP-Se NPs were characterized by transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The influence of different storage environments on the stability of colloidal SCP-Se NPs was also investigated. Finally, the therapeutic effects of SCP-Se NPs on LPS-induced intestinal inflammatory injuries in mice were evaluated. Results showed that the optimized SCP-Se NPs were amorphous, uniform, spherical particles with a diameter of 121 nm, and the colloidal solution was stable at 4 degrees C for at least 14 d. Moreover, SCP-Se NPs could more effectively alleviate LPS-induced diarrhea, intestinal tissue injury, and tight junction destruction and decrease the elevated expression levels of TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 compared with SCP. These results demonstrate that SCP-Se NPs may alleviate LPS-induced enteritis through their anti-inflammatory effects, indicating that SCP-Se NPs can serve as a good candidate for preventing and treating enteritis in the livestock and poultry industry.
