Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a composition for prevention or treatment of sepsis or septic shock, in which the composition includes neoagarooligosaccharide as an active ingredient.
  • agar is a representative seaweed-derived polysaccharide which is widely used for food additives, medicines, cosmetics, livestock feed, and industrial raw materials.
  • the agar is one of comparatively abundant fishery resources, and its yield is about 3,600 tons per year in Korea.
  • only a portion of the total yield is simply processed in actual practice to be merely used as a cheap raw material, and the rest of the total yield went by wayside so that the added value is very low compared to the natural resource amount. Accordingly, there is great demand for development of a novel use of the abundant Korean agar or a study for the added value enhancement.
  • the agar consists of agarose and agaropectin.
  • the agarose is formed in a straight chain structure linked by ⁇ -1,3 bond, which is obtained by repeating agarobiose which is a monomer in which D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose are linked in ⁇ -1,4 bond so that the agarose's gel power is strong.
  • the agaropectin is essentially composed of agarobiose units like agarose, but includes acidic group such as sulfuric acidic group so that the gel power thereof is weak.
  • the agarose is digested into neoagarobiose via neoagarotetraose by ⁇ -agarase acting on ⁇ -1,4 bonds, and subsequently, is finally digested into D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose by ⁇ -agarase acting on the ⁇ -1, 3 bond.

Further, sepsis may cause infectious disease in the whole body or result in a shock when symptoms are severe.
  • LPS lipopolysaccharide
