Over decades, the source-function relationships of bioactive polysaccharides have been progressively investigated, however, it is still unclear how a defined structure may conduce to bioactivities polysaccharides. To explore structure-function relationship fungus polysaccharides, we employed dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)‐induced colitis mouse model compare anti-inflammatory activity two from Dictyophora indusiata (DIP) and Tremella fuciformis (TFP), which exhibit distinct glycosidic linkages. The structures DIP TFP were characterized through molecular weight detection, morphology analysis, methylation NMR analysis. Subsequently, DSS-induced assess efficacy TFP. symptoms, histological morphology, intestinal inflammatory cytokines, composition function gut microbiota before after treatment in mice also investigated. DIP, l,3-β-D-glucan with 1,4-β 1,6-β-D-Glcp as branched chains, exhibited superior therapeutic effect than that consisted linear 1,3-α-D-mannose backbone D-xylose L-fucose side chains. Both relieved dependent manner. Furthermore, metagenomics showed could partially reverse bacterial mice. Glycoside Hydrolase 1 (GH1) GH3 shown cleave glucose linkages while GH92 GH29 likely active on α-1,3-linked mannose bonds residues Our findings highlight pivotal role activities would promote design discovery designated be used functional foods and/or therapeutics.

Recent studies have highlighted the prebiotic potential of natural plant polysaccharides, demonstrating their role in promoting beneficial gut microbiota and improving health. However, research on digestive properties activities Imperatae Rhizoma Polysaccharides (IRPs) remains limited. This study investigated fresh as object. After processing, dry carbonized were prepared. Three polysaccharides from fresh, dry, extracted with traditional hot water. And another polysaccharide was obtained by cold water extraction . Total four IRPs named: IRPs-F, IRPs-D, IRPs-C, IRPs-J. evaluated activity derived roots thatch, resistance to digestion, ability promote probiotic growth, enhancement short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production. The final results show that exhibit strong digestion IRPs-F growth probiotics, making it a promising candidate for functional foods aimed at intestinal health, immune regulation, metabolic benefits. is highly relevant food microbiology holds significant application health sectors.
