Extratos de polissacar?deos sulfatados de algas (ASP) apresentam propriedades farmacol?gicas, por?m h? poucos relatos da produ??o de nanopart?culas de prata com extratos ricos em polissacar?deos sulfatados (SPN). Assim, neste trabalho sintetizou-se SPN de algas encontradas no Brasil: Spatoglossum schr?ederi, Dictyopteris justii, Sargassum filipendula e Dictyota mertensii. A obten??o dos extratos ricos em polissacar?deos ocorreu por prote?lise seguida por precipita??o com metanol. A s?ntese das diferentes nanopart?culas ocorreu com a adi??o de solu??es de prata 1 mM em solu??es dos diferentes polissacar?deos e mantidos em repouso. Posteriormente as amostras foram centrifugadas e liofilizadas. A forma??o SPN foi confirmada por espectroscopia UV/vis?vel, microscopia eletr?nica de varredura e microscopia de for?a at?mica. O tamanho das SPN foi de 108 ? 2 nm; 82 ? 1nm; 288 ? 52 nm; 104 ? 2 nm para S. schr?ederi; D. justii; S. filipendula; D. mertensii, respectivamente e se manteve est?vel por catorze meses, os potenciais zeta foram negativos e as formas das SPN foram esf?ricas. Os resultados de diversos testes in vitro mostraram que as SPN potencializam as atividades antioxidantes de ASP. As SPN tamb?m foram biocompat?veis com c?lulas normais 3T3 (fibroblastos murinicos). Por outro lado, SPN de S schr?ederi e de D. mertensii tiveram atividade citot?xica (~60%) frente as c?lulas de melanoma mur?nico (B16F10) e acredita-se que a maior atividade citot?xica destas SPN ocorram devido aos seus pequenos tamanhos. SPN tamb?m tiveram grande capacidade antibacteriana. Nanopart?culas de D. justii e S. filipendula tiveram os melhores resultados, sendo necess?rio somente 50 ?g/mL para a morte da bact?ria E. coli e 100 ?g/mL para a morte de S. aureus. Hipotet?za-se que esta atividade ocorra por libera??o de prata pelas SPN. SPN tamb?m foram capazes de induzir a produ??o de ?xido n?trico e citocinas com perfil semelhante a os seus respectivos ASP, com exce??o para SPN de S. schr?ederi. Em geral, os resultados revelaram que a s?ntese de SPN a partir das ASP potencializa efeitos antioxidantes, citot?xico e antibacteriano dos ASP, al?m de apresentar o mesmo efeito imunomodulador de seus respectivos ASP. Os dados obtidos levam a propor que a s?ntese de SPN constituiu-se como um poss?vel mecanismo potencializador de atividades biol?gicas. / The production of silver nanoparticle containing natural extracts has been identified as an excellent alternative to enhance or provide new applicability for these extracts. Sulfated polysaccharides-rich extracts (ASP) from seaweeds showed several pharmacological properties, but there are few reports of the production of silver nanoparticle with sulfated polysaccharides (SPN). Therefore, this paper we synthesized SPN from seaweeds founded in Brazil: Spatoglossum schr?ederi, Dictyopteris justii, Sargassum filipendula e Dictyota mertensii. The obtainment of polysaccharides rich extracts it occurred by proteolysis followed by methanol precipitation. The synthesis of various nanoparticles occurred with the addition of silver solution 1 mM on different polysaccharides solutions and kept at rest. Subsequently the samples were centrifuge and lyophilized. The SPN formation was confirmed by UV/ visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The size of SPN was 108 ? 2 nm; 82 ? 1nm; 288 ? 52 nm; 104 ? 2 nm for S. schr?ederi; D. justii; S. filipendula; D. mertensii, respectively. The nanoparticules remained stable for fourteen months, the Zeta potential were negative and forms of SPN were rounded. Data from various antioxidant in vitro tests showed that the SPN were more effective than ASP. The SPN were also biocompatible with the normal cells 3T3 (murine fibroblast). Moreover, SPN of S. schr?ederi and of D. mertensii had cytotoxic activity (~60%) against melanoma cells (B16F10). We believe that the increased of cytotoxic activity of these SPN occur due to their small size. SPN also had great antibacterial capacity. D. justii and S. filipendula nanoparticles had the best results, requiring only 50 mg/mL and 100 mg/mL for induces E. coli and S. aureus death. We hypothesized that this activity occurs by release of SPN?s silver. SPN also increase the nitric oxide and cytokines release from macrophages as similar profile to the respective ASP, except for S. schr?ederi SPN. In general, the results showed that SPN were more effective as antioxidant, antibacterial and cytotoxic agents than their respective ASP, as well as, SPN have shown the same immunomodulation effect of the respective ASP. The results lead to propose that the SPN synthesis constituted as a possible potentiating mechanism of biological activities of ASPs.

In this study, we analyzed, the action of fucans L. variegata and the fractions purified with acetone in Zymosan-induced arthritis. After differential fractionation with acetone, six fractions were obtained and named F0.3, F0.5, F0.8, F1, F1.5 and F2. The results showed that the fraction F1 showed high yield (51.9%) and was chosen for studies of antioxidant activity and induced arthritis. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of 13C showed signals at 103.3 and 15.78 ppm that are assigned to links ?13 galactose and of the C6 methyl fucose, respectively. The infrared (IR) showed absorbance at 1238 and 850 cm-1 which are attributed to sulfate. The fraction F1 showed antioxidant activities in vitro. For analysis of inflammatory parameters chosen the polysaccharide was administered in different doses (25, 50 and 75 mg / kg ip, per body weight) and diclofenac sodium (5 mg / kg ip) and L-NAME (25 mg / kg ip) in groups of animals (n = 6). After 6 h, were analyzed for cellular influx and levels of nitrite. In experiment five days, were made analysis of swelling and serum TNF-?. Histopathological analysis were performed for confirmation of results. The fraction F1 (25, 50 and 75 mg / kg ip) reduced the cellular influx (52.1 to 96.7%) and nitric oxide levels (27.2 - 39%) compared to control group. The reduction of edema (63.4 - 100%) and serum TNF-? (p <0.001) were observed when the polysaccharide F1 administered at a dose (50 mg / kg) These results suggest that these heterofucanas of Lobophora variegata have besides the activity antioxidant and potential anti-inflammatory activity in arthritis induced by zymosan / Fucanas da alga Lobophora variegata s?o conhecidas por suas estruturas qu?micas e propriedades biol?gicas. Nesse estudo, analisou-se a a??o de fucanas de L. variegata e suas fra??es purificadas com acetona na artrite induzida por Zymosan. Ap?s fracionamento diferencial com acetona, 6 fra??es foram obtidas e nomeados F0.3, F0.5, F0.8, F1, F1.5 e F2. Os resultados mostraram que a fra??o F1 apresentou alto rendimento (51,9%) e foi escolhida para estudos da atividade antioxidante e artrite induzida. A resson?ncia magn?tica nuclear (RMN) de 13C mostrou sinais a 103,3 e 15,78 ppm que s?o atribu?dos ?s liga??es ?1 3 da galactose e metil do C6 da fucose, respectivamente. O infravermelho (IV) mostrou absorb?ncia a 1238 e 850 cm-1 que s?o atribu?das ao sulfato. A fra??o F1 apresentou atividades antioxidantes in vitro. Para an?lise de par?metros inflamat?rios a fra??o polissacar?dica escolhida foi administrada em diferentes doses (25, 50 e 75 mg/kg i.p, por peso corporal), assim como diclofenaco de s?dio (5 mg/kg i.p.) e L-NAME (25 mg/kg i.p.) em grupos de animais (n=6). Depois de 6 h, foram realizadas an?lises de influxo celular e n?veis de nitrito. Em experimento de cinco dias, foram efetuadas analises de edema e TNF-? s?rico. An?lises histopatol?gicas foram realizadas para confirma??o de resultados. A fra??o F1 (25, 50 e 75 mg/kg i.p.) reduziu o influxo celular (52,1 ? 96,7%) e os n?veis ?xido n?trico (27,2 ? 39%) em rela??o ao grupo controle. A redu??o do edema (63,4 - 100%) e TNF-? s?rico (p < 0,001) foram observadas quando administrado o polissacar?deo F1 na dosagem (50 mg/kg) Esses resultados sugerem que essas heterofucanas de Lobophora variegata possuem al?m da atividade antioxidante, potencial atividade anti-inflamat?ria na artrite induzida por zymosan
