Oxidation is essential to many organisms for the production of
energy to fuel biological processes. However, the uncontrolledpro-duction of superoxide anion free radicals is involved in the onset
of many diseases such as cancer, atherosclerosis and degenerative
processes with aging[1]. Thus, it is essential to develop effective
and natural antioxidants so that they can protect the human body
from free radicals and many chronic diseases[2]. Polysaccharides
extracted from mushrooms, such asLentinus edodes, Ganoderma
tsugaeandCordyceps sinensis, havealsoexhibitedantioxidant prop-erties by their free radical scavenging ability[3,4].
Tricholoma matsutake is a kind of fungi belonging to Sub-genus Tricholoma and is widely distributed in Asian countries,
such as China, Japan, and Korea. As a traditional edible fungus
in oriental countries, it has been consumed as a vegetable and
used as a traditional Chinese medicine in single and compound-ing prescriptions for the prevention and treatment of diseases
for several thousand years [5]. As an extract from T. matsutake,
polysaccharides (TMP) have showed strongly bioactive properties
towards antioxidant and anti-tumor[6].

extracted and purified from the fruiting bodies of T. matsutake
using a DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and a Sephadex
G-100 column chromatography. Its chemical structures were char-
acterized for the first time. The antioxidant activity of TMP-A
was evaluated by various antioxidant assay and MTT method.
The result of this study introduced T. matsutake as a possible
valuable source which helped to exhibit unique antioxidant prop-
erties.
2. Materials and methods
2.1. Chemicals
The fruiting bodies of T. matsutake were collected in Xiaojing
country of Sichuan Province, China, and were authenticated by
Prof. Sao-rong Ge (College of Life Sciences, Sichuan University,
Chengdu, China). At the same time, a voucher specimen had been
preserved in Key Laboratory for Biological Resource and Ecolog-
ical Environment of Education Ministry, College of Life Sciences,
Sichuan University. DEAE-cellulose 52 and Sephadex G-100 were
purchased fromSigma–Aldrich (mainland, China).Monosaccharide
standards, Dextran T-500, T-110, T-70, T-40, and T-10, were pur-
chased from Beijing Biodee Biotechnology Co., Ltd. (Beijing, China).
All other reagents used were of analytical grade.
