Abstract

(1) Background: The extraction parameters can dramatically alter the extraction rate and biological activity of polysaccharides. (2) Methods: Here, an enzyme-assisted extraction (EAE) was employed to extract D. officinale polysaccharides (DOPs), and its optimal extraction conditions were established by single-factor and Box–Behnken design (BBD) experiments. Further, on the basis of in vitro antioxidant capacity, the paraquat (PQ)-induced oxidative stress of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) was chosen as a research model to explore the antioxidant activity of DOPs. (3) Results: The results showed that the extraction yield of DOPs reached 48.66% ± 1.04% under the optimal condition. In vitro experiments had shown that DOPs have considerable ABTS+ radical scavenging capacity (EC50 = 7.27 mg/mL), hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity (EC50 = 1.61 mg/mL), and metal chelating power (EC50 = 8.31 mg/mL). Furthermore, in vivo experiments indicated that DOPs (0.25 mg/mL) significantly prolonged the lifespan, increased antioxidant enzyme activity, and upregulated the expression of daf-16 (>5.6-fold), skn-1 (>5.2-fold), and sir-2.1 (>2.3-fold) of C. elegans. (4) Conclusions: DOPs can be efficiently extracted by EAE and are effective in the reduction of oxidative stress levels in C. elegans.
