Abstract

The present work aimed to investigate the potential hepatoprotective effects of Oudemansiella radicata residues polysaccharides (RPS). Our results demonstrated that RPS showed significantly protective effects against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced liver injury, and the possible mechanisms may be related with the predominant bioactivities of RPS containing anti-oxidation by activating the Nrf2 signal pathways, anti-inflammation by inhibiting NF-κB signal pathways and reducing the release of inflammatory cytokines, anti-apoptosis by regulating Bcl-2/Bax pathway, and anti-fibrosis by inhibiting the expressions of TGF-β1, Hyp and α-SMA, respectively. These findings suggested that RPS, a typical β-type glycosidic pyranose, could be used as a promising diet supplement or medication for the adjunctive treatment of hepatic diseases, and also contributed to promoting the recyclable utilization of mushroom residues.
