In this paper, emulsions stabilized byTremella fuciformispolysaccharides (TFP) were prepared and the physiochemical properties were assessed. Results showed that the TFP emulsions illustrated the highest emulsifying activity (EAI) and emulsifying stability (ESI) when the concentration of TFP and oil were 0.8% and 10% (wt%). The higher pH value was in favor of the emulsifying properties, while the addition of NaCl impaired the stability, and the greater the concentration, the lower the EAI and ESI. Besides, the emulsifying and rheological properties and stability analysis were evaluated in comparison with gum arabic, pectin, and carboxymethyl cellulose emulsions. It was discovered that TFP illustrated better storage and freeze-thaw stability, which was proved by the result of zeta-potential and particle size. The rheological measurement revealed that all the emulsions behaved as pseudoplastic fluids, while TFP displayed a higher viscosity. Meanwhile, TFP emulsions tended to form a more stable network structure according to the analysis of the parameters obtained from the Herschel–Bulkley model. FTIR spectra suggested that the O-H bond could be destructed without the formation of new covalent bonds during the emulsion preparation. Therefore, this study would be of great importance for the research of emulsions stabilized by TFP as a natural food emulsifier.Keywords:Tremella fuciformispolysaccharides;emulsifying properties;rheological properties;stability

Cuproptosis affects osteosarcoma locally, and the exploitation of cuproptosis-related biomaterials for osteosarcoma treatment is still in its infancy. We designed and synthesized a novel injectable gel of Cu ion–coordinated Tremella fuciformis polysaccharide (TFP–Cu) for antiosteosarcoma therapy. This material has antitumor effects, the ability to stimulate immunity and promote bone formation, and a controlled Cu 2+ release profile in smart response to tumor microenvironment stimulation. TFP–Cu can selectively inhibit the proliferation of K7M2 tumor cells by arresting the cell cycle and promoting cell apoptosis and cuproptosis. TFP–Cu also promoted the M1 polarization of RAW264.7 cells and regulated the immune microenvironment. These effects increased osteogenic gene and protein expression in MC3T3-E1 cells. TFP–Cu could significantly limit tumor growth in tumor-bearing mice by inducing tumor cell apoptosis and improving the activation of anti-CD8 T cell-mediated immune responses. Therefore, TFP–Cu could be a potential candidate for treating osteosarcoma and bioactive drug carrier for further cancer-related applications.

Tremella fuciformis polysaccharides (TFPS) belong to natural bioactive macromolecule with both edible and medicinal value, possessing much bioactivities such as anti-tumor, antioxidant, antidiabetics, and immunomodulatory. Currently, the production of TFPS through submerged fermentation (TFPS-1) is gradually replacing the polysaccharides extracted from the fruiting body due to improved fermentation efficiency and reduced separation costs. However, it is still unclear about the effect of TFPS-1 on gastrointestinal digestion and gut microbial fermentation, which is directly related to the function of its biological activity. This study aimed to illustrate the effect of TFPS-1 on digestive process through in vitro digestion and fecal fermentation. TFPS-1 was indigestible during the simulated gastrointestinal tract. But TFPS-1 can be digested by intestinal flora leading to alterations in the total polysaccharides content, molecular weight, and apparent viscosity. Moreover, TFPS-1 regulated the composition of gut microbial, lowering the proportion of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes and enhancing the abundances of Parabacteroides and Bacteroides. The change of intestinal flora produced more short chain fatty acids and lowered the pH. The KEGG metabolic pathway analysis indicated that TFPS-1 enriched lipid metabolism, glycan biosynthesis and metabolism, and biosynthesis of other secondary metabolites. This study demonstrated that T. fuciformis fermented polysaccharide can be a potential prebiotic to optimize intestinal flora homeostasis and maintain host intestinal health.

Tremella fuciformis is an edible and medicinal mushroom. Polysaccharides from T. fuciformis have received increasing attention due to their diversely pharmacological activities. In this study, the digestive behavior and fermentation characteristics of T. fuciformis polysaccharides (TFP) were studied. The results revealed that the reducing sugar content, chemical composition, molecular weight, rheological property, constituent monosaccharide, and FT-IR spectrum of TFP were not altered after the in vitro simulated digestion, indicating that it was indigestible under different simulated digestion conditions. However, the physicochemical characteristics of TFP, including reducing sugar content, molecular weight, constituent monosaccharide, and free monosaccharide released, were obviously altered after the in vitro fermentation for 48 h, indicating that it was remarkably utilized by intestinal microbiota in human feces. Notably, TFP could obviously modulate the microbial composition via promoting the relative abundances of Phascolarctobacterium , Bacteroides , and Lachnoclostridium . Moreover, TFP could also increase the production of short-chain fatty acids, including acetic, propionic, n -butyric, and n -valeric acids, after the in vitro fermentation for 48 h. These results showed that TFP was stable under the simulated digestion conditions, but could be utilized by intestinal microbiota in human feces, and might possess the potential to improve intestinal health.
