摘要: 对制备的知母多糖(Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bge. polysaccharides,AABP)进行结构表征,并探究其对D-半乳糖致衰老小鼠脑损伤与肠道菌群的改善作用。结果表明,AABP纯度为80.89%,主要由甘露糖和葡萄糖组成,具有三股螺旋结构和显著的体外抗氧化能力。在动物模型中,AABP显著改善衰老小鼠行为学表现,缓解海马神经元病理损伤。机制研究显示,AABP有效提升脑组织中超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化氢酶和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶活性,降低丙二醛水平;并通过上调脑源性神经营养因子表达激活下游蛋白激酶B/cAMP反应元件结合蛋白信号通路。此外,16S rRNA测序及PICRUSt2预测表明,AABP恢复了肠道菌群α多样性,回调毛螺菌科_NK4A136群(Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group)和普雷沃氏菌属(Alloprevotella)等关键菌属丰度,增强碳水化合物与氨基酸代谢功能。综上,AABP可能通过激活脑内脑源性神经营养因子/蛋白激酶B/cAMP反应元件结合蛋白信号通路并重塑肠道菌群稳态发挥抗衰老作用。

Abstract: This study characterized Anemarrhena asphodeloides Bge. polysaccharides (AABP) and evaluated their protective effects against D-galactose (D-gal)-induced brain injury and gut microbiota dysbiosis in aging mice. The results indicated that AABP, with a purity of 80.89%, were primarily composed of mannose and glucose, featured a triple-helix structure and possessed significant in vitro antioxidant capacity. AABP significantly improved the behavioral performance of aging mice and alleviated neuronal pathological damage in the hippocampus. Mechanistically, AABP effectively enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) while reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in brain tissue. Moreover, they activated the downstream protein kinase B (Akt)/cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway by upregulating brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. Furthermore, 16S rRNA sequencing and functional prediction using PICRUSt2 revealed that AABP restored the α-diversity of the gut microbiota and the relative abundance of key genera, such as Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group and Alloprevotella, while enhancing carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. In summary, AABP may exert anti-aging effects by activating the cerebral BDNF/Akt/CREB signaling pathway and remodeling gut microbiota homeostasis.
