This study aimed to investigate the structure characteristics Lonicera flos polysaccharides (LP) and the protective effects of LP on cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression in mice. The results showed the yield and purity of LP was 1.41% and 94.15%, the molecular weight was 53 kDa, and composed of arabinose, rhamnose, ribose, xylose, mannose, fructose, galactose and glucose; and LP had typical polysaccharide structural characteristics via ultraviolet and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. Furthermore, LP obviously alleviated the injury of spleen and thymus; significantly promoted Interleukin-2 (IL-2), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), immunoglobulin (IgA, IgG and IgM) secretion; and improved the richness of gut microbiota and the contents of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in immunosuppressive mice. Taken together, these results suggested that LP possessed strong protective effect on cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression in mice via modulating gut microbiota.
