A convenient synthesis of short-chain ?-(1 ? 2) mannopyranosyl oligosaccharides.

ABSTRACT: Sugar 1,2-orthoesters are by-products of chemical glycosylation reactions that can be subsequently rearranged in situ to give trans glycosides. They have been used as donors in the synthesis of the latter glycosides with good regio- and stereo-selectivity. Alkyl ?-(1 ? 2) linked mannopyranosyl disaccharides have been reported as the major products from the rearrangement of mannopyranosyl orthoesters. Recent studies in this laboratory have shown that ?-(1 ? 2) linked mannopyranosyl di-, tri- and tetrasaccharides can be obtained in one step from mannopyranosyl allyl orthoester under optimized reaction conditions. In addition to the expected mono- and disaccharides (56%), allyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranosyl-(1 ? 2)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranosyl-(1 ? 2)-tri-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranoside and allyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranosyl-(1 ? 2)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranosyl-(1 ? 2)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranosyl-(1 ? 2)-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-?-d-mannopyranoside were obtained in 23% and 6% isolated yields, respectively, from the oligomerization of a ?-d-mannopyranosyl allyl 1,2-orthoester, along with small amounts of higher DP oligomers. Possible mechanisms for the oligomerization and side reactions are proposed based on NMR and mass spectrometric data.

Project description:BackgroundA critical role for host-microbe interactions and establishment of vaccine responses has been postulated. Human milk oligosaccharides, of which 2'-fucosyllactose (2'FL) is the most prevalent, are known to alter host-associated microbial communities and play a critical role in the immunologic development of breastfed infants.ObjectivesDietary supplementation with a combination of 2'FL and prebiotic short-chain (sc) galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) and long-chain (lc) fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) was employed to examine human milk oligosaccharide effects on immune responsiveness, within a murine influenza vaccination model.MethodsFemale mice (6 wk old, C57Bl/6JOlaHsd) were fed either control diet (CON) or scGOS/lcFOS/2'FL-containing diet (GF2F) for 45 d. After starting dietary intervention (day 14), mice received a primary influenza vaccination (day 0) followed by a booster vaccination (day 21), after which ear challenges were conducted to measure vaccine-specific delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH). Serum immunoglobulin (Ig) levels, fecal and cecal microbial community structure, short-chain fatty acids, host intestinal gene expression and cellular responses in the mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) were also measured.ResultsRelative to CON, mice fed the GF2F diet had increased influenza vaccine-specific DTH responses (79.3%; P < 0.01), higher levels of both IgG1 (3.2-fold; P < 0.05) and IgG2a (1.2-fold; P < 0.05) in serum, and greater percentages of activated B cells (0.3%; P < 0.05), regulatory T cells (1.64%; P < 0.05), and T-helper 1 cells (2.2%; P < 0.05) in their MLNs. GF2F-fed mice had elevated cecal butyric (P < 0.05) and propionic (P < 0.05) acid levels relative to CON, which correlated to DTH responses (R2 = 0.22; P = 0.05 and R2 = 0.39; P < 0.01, respectively). Specific fecal microbial taxa altered in GF2F diet fed mice relative to CON were significantly correlated with the DTH response and IgG2a level increases.ConclusionsDietary GF2F improved influenza vaccine-specific T-helper 1 responses and B cell activation in MLNs and enhanced systemic IgG1 and IgG2a concentrations in mice. These immunologic changes are correlated with microbial community structure and metabolites.

Project description:Farmers face difficulties in redeeming their investment in larger litter sizes since this comes with larger litter heterogenicity, lower litter resilience and risk of higher mortality. Dietary oligosaccharides, given to the sow, proved beneficial for the offspring's performance. However, giving oligosaccharides to the suckling piglet is poorly explored. Therefore, this field trial studied the effect of dietary short-chain fructo-oligosaccharides (scFOS; 1g/day; drenched) supplementation to low (LBW, lower quartile), normal (NBW, two intermediate quartiles) and high (HBW, upper quartile) birth weight piglets from birth until 7 or 21 days of age. Performance parameters, gut microbiome and short-chain fatty acids profile of feces and digesta were assessed at birth (d 0), d 7, weaning (d 21.5) and 2 weeks post-weaning (d 36.5). Additional parameters reflecting gut health (intestinal integrity and morphology, mucosal immune system) were analysed at d 36.5. Most parameters changed with age or differed with the piglet's birth weight. Drenching with scFOS increased body weight by 1 kg in NBW suckling piglets and reduced the post-weaning mortality rate by a 100%. No clear difference in the IgG level, the microbiota composition and fermentative activity between the treatment groups was observed. Additionnally, intestinal integrity, determined by measuring intestinal permeability and regenerative capacity, was similar between the treatment groups. Also, intestinal architecture (villus lenght, crypt depth) was not affected by scFOS supplementation. The density of intra-epithelial lymphocytes and the expression profiles (real-time qPCR) for immune system-related genes (IL-10, IL-1ß, IL-6, TNFα and IFNγ) were used to assess mucosal immunity. Only IFNγ expression, was upregulated in piglets that received scFOS for 7 days. The improved body weight and the reduced post-weaning mortality seen in piglets supplemented with scFOS support the view that scFOS positively impact piglet's health and resilience. However, the modes of action for these effects are not yet fully elucidated and its potential to improve other performance parameters needs further investigation.
