Abstract

This paper used dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to establish a mouse model of ulcerative colitis, which was intervened with mesalazine [200 mg/(kg·d)] and durian shell polysaccharide [250 mg/(kg·d), 500 mg/(kg·d), 1 000 mg/(kg·d)] to detect changes in body weight, disease activity index (DAI), and colon length in mice. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in colonic tissue was determined by using an MPO kit. Inflammatory cytokines were evaluated by ELISA. The histopathological changes of the colon were observed by HE staining, and the protective effect of durian shell polysaccharide on ulcerative colitis in mice and its mechanism of action were comprehensively evaluated. Compared with the DSS group, mice in the durian shell polysaccharide high-dose intervention group had increased body weight and colon length, decreased DAI and colon weight, significantly lowered expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors (P<0.01), and significantly lowered inflammatory marker MPO (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression levels of ZO-1, occludin, claudin-7, and E-cadherin in the intestinal tissue of mice in the durian shell polysaccharide group showed a dose-dependent increase (P<0.05) and a dose-dependent decrease (P<0.05) in the expression level of N-cadherin protein, and the colonic epithelial structure was improved. In a cellular model, durian shell polysaccharide repaired mucosal damage and reduced intestinal inflammation by upregulating E-cadherin protein expression levels and downregulating N-cadherin protein expression levels. Durian shell polysaccharide improves DSS-induced intestinal mucosal injury in mice and TNF-α-induced epithelial barrier dysfunction in Caco-2 cells and has good protective effects against ulcerative colitis.
