Abstract
Fucosylated chondroitin sulfate (fCS) from sea cucumber Isostichopus badionotus (fCS-Ib) with a chondroitin sulfate type E (CSE) backbone and 2,4-O-sulfo fucose branches has shown excellent anticoagulant activity although has also show severe adverse effects. Depolymerization represents an effective method to diminish this polysaccharide''s side effects. The present study reports a modified controlled Fenton system for degradation of fCS-Ib and the anticoagulant activity of the resulting fragments. Monosaccharides and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis of the resulting fragments indicate that no significant chemical changes in the backbone of fCS-Ib and no loss of sulfate groups take place during depolymerization. A reduction in the molecular weight of fCS-Ib should result in a dramatic decrease in prolonging activated partial thromboplastin time and thrombin time. A decrease in the inhibition of thrombin (FIIa) by antithromin III (AT III) and heparin cofactor II (HCII), and the slight decrease of the inhibition of factor X activity, results in a significant increase of anti-factor Xa (FXa)/anti-FIIa activity ratio. The modified free-radical depolymerization method enables preparation of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) oligosaccharides suitable for investigation of clinical anticoagulant application.

Figure 2. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoretograms of the fCS-Ib hydrolytic products. The products formed in the course of oxidative degradation with Fenton system were analyzed at different intervals with a 22% gel.
Figure 3. 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra (800 MHz at room temperature) of the native and three depolymerized fCS-Ib samples. The assignment of the peak is explained in the figure and the references [18].
Figure 4. The 2D NMR spectra of DfCS-5 prepared by Fenton system (pH 6.0) at the concentration of 0.2 mol/L H2O2 and 0.2 mmol/L Cu2+ and at 55 °C: (A) Correlation spectroscopy (COSY) and (B) Total correlation spectroscopy (TOCSY). Signals designated with a reference to those produced by Fuc2,4S; and signals designated with G and u refer to N-acetyl-d-galactosamine (GalNAc) and glucuronic acid (GlcA), respectively.
Figure 5. Effect of fCS-Ib and its depolymerized products on inhibition of FIIa and FXa activity. (A) FXa/AT; (B) FIIa/AT; (C) FXa/HCII. AT (1 IU/mL) or HCII (0.5 mmol/L) were incubated with FIIa (20 IU/mL) or FXa (0.4 IU/mL) in the presence of fCS and its depolymerized products at various concentrations. After 120 s of incubation at 37 °C, the remaining FIIa or FXa was determined with a chromogenic substrate (A405 nm/min). Results were shown as means ± SD (n = 3/group).
