Selenium deficiency is closely relate to multiple diseases. Supplementation with adequate amount of selenium is very important for human health. As various selenium compounds have different biological effects, preparation and functional study of new product are essential for the discovery of selenium-containing drug. In this work, polymannuronate(PM) was used as the raw material to synthesize sulfonated polymannur-onate(S-PM). Seleno-polymannuronate(Se-PM) was then prepared by the replacement of sulfonated group in S-PM with sodium selenite. The yield of Se-PM synthesis was 54% with a selenium content of 437. 25 μg/g. Purified Se-PM was used to study its antioxidative property and effect on Alzheimer' s disease ( AD) , using N2a-APP695-sw cells as an AD model. Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by flow cytometry. Mitochondrial membrane potential and cytochrome C release were detected by laser scanning confocal microscope. The expression levels of cell apoptosis and AD pathology relevant proteins were analyzed by Western Blot. The results showed that the optimum selenium concentration was 2. 5 μmol/L for Se-PM to significantly increase cell viability. Se-PM at this concentration could prevent cells from the oxidative damage of hydrogen peroxide, inhibit intracellular ROS, increase the activity of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, promote mitochondrial membrane potential, and suppress cytochrome C release into cytoplasm. Meanwhile, Se-PM could also increase Bcl-2 expression and decrease Bax expression, inhibit the expression of AD pathology relevant proteins BACE1 and APP. Those results indicated that Se-PM could resist AD through the prevention of cell apoptosis and amyloid plaque formation, a key pathological feature of AD. It also provides basic data for the development of new anti-AD drug.%以聚甘露糖醛酸为原料,采用先磺化、再硒化的方法合成了硒化聚甘露糖醛酸,产率为54％,产物硒含量为437.25 μg/g.在2.5μmol/L硒浓度下,硒化聚甘露糖醛酸促细胞生长能力达到最适范围,能保护细胞免受过氧化氢损伤,显著提高阿尔茨海默症(AD)模型细胞N2a-APP695-sw中的超氧化物歧化酶和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶的活性,降低细胞内活性氧自由基,增加线粒体膜电位,抑制细胞色素C的释放,在促进Bcl-2表达的同时抑制Bax的表达,从而具有抑制AD细胞凋亡的功能.硒化聚甘露糖醛酸也能抑制AD病理相关蛋白BACE1和APP的表达.结果表明,硒化聚甘露糖醛酸在抗AD方面具有潜在的应用前景.
