Abstract

Fucosylated chondroitin sulfate (FCS) was prepared from Bohadschia ocellata using protease hydrolysis. The structural characteristics of FCS were confirmed through chemical composition analysis using FTIR spectroscopy, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR. FCS from B. ocellata (FCS-Bo) exhibited an average molecular weight of approximately 122 kDa. The biological activities of FCS-Bo, including anticoagulant, anti-cancer, and Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibition, were evaluated. FCS-Bo displayed potent anticoagulant properties, markedly extending activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and thrombin time when compared to the heparin control. In anti-cancer bioactivity research, FCS-Bo efficiently inhibited colony formation in the colon cancer cell lines HCT-116, HT-29, and DLD-1, achieving inhibition rates of up to 65%. Additionally, FCS-Bo exhibited significant inhibition of PTP1B, with an IC50 as low as 0.0326 µg/mL, suggesting its potential for improving insulin sensitivity and managing conditions such as type 2 diabetes and obesity.
