Crude polysaccharide fractions, rich mainly in arabinogalactans (A), pectin (B) and glucuronoxylan-related polymers (D), have been obtained from aerial parts of sage (Salvia officinalis L.) by sequential extraction with various reagents. Arabinogalactans displayed on HPLC a dominance of lower molecular-mass polymers (MW < 10,000), while pectin and glucuronoxylan-related polysaccharides showed predominance of polymers with MW > 50,000. Individual polysaccharide fractions were examined for their immunomodulatory activity in the in vitro comitogenic thymocyte test. The polysaccharide fractions tested possessed the capacity to induce rat thymocyte proliferation in the order D>B>A. Besides, fraction D possessed a significant comitogenic effect, and the SIcomit/SImit ratio 3-4 indicates potential adjuvant properties of this glucuronoxylan-rich material.

D010368 Pectins High molecular weight polysaccharides present in the cell walls of all plants. Pectins cement cell walls together. They are used as emulsifiers and stabilizers in the food industry. They have been tried for a variety of therapeutic uses including as antidiarrheals, where they are now generally considered ineffective, and in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.
