Abstract

Description
本申请涉及医药技术领域,具体涉及一种人参杂多糖的分离、鉴定及应用。
自2020年新冠疫情在全球爆发以来,严重影响人类的生命财产安全并对日常生活带来了很多不便,接种疫苗是有效预防传染病的重要措施。免疫佐剂是指能够非特异性改变或增强机体对抗原的特异性免疫应答的物质,并且是疫苗的重要组成部分。免疫佐剂的作用机理主要是可以增加抗原表面积,提高免疫原性;对抗原起缓释作用,延长抗原在组织中的滞留时间;促进炎症反应,刺激主动免疫应答。目前我国市售疫苗佐剂多为铝盐佐剂,但是铝盐可引起注射部位的炎症并刺激局部红斑、肉芽肿和皮下结节,同时,铝盐佐剂会延缓疫苗的中和抗体的产生,因此在应用时受到多种限制,所以开发新型疫苗佐剂是非常必要且有意义的。
人参为五加科人参属植物人参Panax ginseng.A.Meyer的干燥根及根茎,具有大补元气、生津养血、安神益智等功效。现代药理学表明人参具有提高免疫力、抗肿瘤、抗疲劳等功效,广泛分布于中国、日本、韩国等亚洲国家。人参中主要含有皂苷、多糖、黄酮等多种活性成分。

所述浸提是指利用适当的溶媒和方法,从原料中将可溶性有效成分浸出的过程。浸提法也称液固萃取法,通常利用的是用挥发性有机溶剂将原料中的某些成分转移到溶剂相中,然后通过蒸发、蒸馏等手段回收有机溶剂,而得到所需的较为纯净的萃取组分。本申请使用的浸提方法不受限制,可以是本领域常用的任何方法,例如水浸提、醇浸提等,一种优选的实施方式,本申请使用水浸提,优选提取2-6次,例如可以为3、4、5次,每次提取1~5h,例如可以为2h、3h、4h,在浸提的过程中,料液比优选为1:10~40,例如可以为1:15、1:20、1:25、1:30、1:35。
浸提后对浸提液进行醇沉,所述醇沉即乙醇沉淀,是指利用有效组分溶于乙醇而杂质不溶于遗传的特性,在混合组分溶液中加入乙醇后,有效成分转入乙醇中而杂质则被沉淀出来。本申请的醇沉方法可以是本领域内常见的任何方法,不受限制。
醇沉后的液体进行浓缩、干燥,一种优选的实施方式,可以使用冻干进行干燥,然后即可得到人参粗多糖。
所述人参粗多糖经过离子交换柱进行层析后得到杂多糖提取液。其中,洗脱过程优选使用蒸馏水、氯化钠水溶液依次洗脱,洗脱流速优选为0.03~12mL/min,例如可以为0.05mL/min、0.1mL/min、1mL/min、2mL/min、3mL/min、4mL/min、5mL/min、6mL/min、7mL/min、8mL/min、9mL/min、10mL/min、11mL/min。

本申请进一步提供了一种组合物,所述组合物包含如上所述任何一种本申请提供的杂多糖和药学上可接受的载体和/或辅料。
本申请还提供了如上所述任何一种本申请提供的杂多糖或者上述组合物作
为疫苗佐剂的用途。
通过本申请的实验研究发现,本申请的杂多糖能够非特异性地改变或增强疫苗的免疫应答反应,不仅可以增强小鼠的体液免疫还可以增强其细胞免疫,例如,
通过对小鼠脾淋巴细胞毒性的研究发现,不同浓度的本申请提供的杂多糖水溶液对小鼠脾淋巴细胞均无毒性作用,且有一部分浓度的杂多糖水溶液甚至可以增强小鼠脾淋巴细胞具有增殖作用,证明了本申请的杂多糖具有免疫刺激活性;

因此,本申请的杂多糖或组合物可以作为一种疫苗佐剂应用到疫苗中。

GAPS-FL的1H-NMR和13C-NMR化学位移数据见表3。
据图9A的1H-NMR谱图显示,在5.73、5.06、5.01、5.00ppm处的信号分别对应T-Ara、3,5-Ara、1,5-Ara的H-1。5.24、5.00ppm处的信号分别对应1,3,4-GalA和1,4-GalA的H-1。5.23ppm处的信号对应1,4,6-Glcp的H-1。4.88ppm附近的信号可以归属为1,3,4-Rhap,T-Gal,1,4-Glc,1,2-Man,T-Xyl的H-1。
据图9B的13C-NMR谱图显示,GAPS-FL的13C-NMR端基峰显示在107.6、107.4、107.3ppm处的信号对应于T-Ara、3,5-Ara、1,5-Ara的C-1。104.6、102.8、100.2ppm处的信号对应于不同取代Galp的C-1。99.3ppm处的信号对应于GalA的C-1。100.9、99.9、98.7、97.6ppm分别对应1,2-Man,1,4-Glc,T-Xyl,1,3,4-Rha的H-1。96.3、92.1处的信号对应于不同取代的Glc的C-1。在160-180ppm处含有羰基碳信号,归属为GalA的C-6,由于化学位移值向高场移动,说明C-6由甲氧基的取代形成甲基化。
通过图9F的HMBC谱图将各个糖残基进行连接,残基A分别与残基B、C、D、H、I相连形成阿拉伯半乳糖聚糖侧链,残基B和C相连形成阿拉伯聚糖侧链,残基K、L、M相连形成葡聚糖侧链,残基D、E、F相连形成半乳糖醛酸主链,并通过二维核磁将各侧链与主链相连。根据GAPS-FL的相对分子质量确定重复片段个数并确定GAPS-FL的重复片段见图10。
综上可以推断GAPS-FL的重复单元结构式如图10所示。
实施例8:GAPS-FL三维结构测定
