Snake envenoming is an important public health problem around the world, particularly in tropics. Beyond deaths, morbidity induced by snake venoms, such as myotoxicity, is of pivotal consequence to population. Bothrops jararacussu is the main venomous snake in southeast region of Brazil, and
BACKGROUND
A toluene-2,4-diisocyanate (TDI)-induced asthma model, in which delayed-type hypersensitivity-like asthmatic airway obstruction is elicited restrictively in the lung, has never been developed.
METHODS
Guinea pigs were percutaneously sensitized with TDI. For the challenges, once every 2
Glycine is known to have a protective role against alcohol-induced liver damage. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of glycine on liver and brain glycoproteins in alcohol-fed rats. Administering ethanol (7.9 g/kg of body of weight) every day to Wistar rats for 60 days resulted in
Sulfated polysaccharide (SP) from the eggs of sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus, extracted by papain digestion, was characterized by size exclusion chromatography coupling on-line with light scattering and viscosity detectors (SEC/MALS/VD/DRI), gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometer (GC-MS),
Sulfated polysaccharides (SP) of brown algae (Phaeophyta) are composed mainly of alpha- L-fucose, being classified as fucans, with recognized role in inflammation but not in nociception, which was already described for SP obtained from red algae. Here the SP of the brown marine alga S. schroederi
Fucogalactomannan (FGM) is a non-sulphated polysaccharide isolated from the Tylopilus ballouii mushroom. We investigated the chemical characteristics of this FGM using HPLC, chemical methods, and NMR studies ((1)H, (13)C, (1)H/(13)C-HSQC and DEPT-135 spectroscopies) without chemical fragmentation.
Pseudopterosin E (PSE), a C-10 linked fucose glycoside and pseudopterosin A (PSA), a C-9 xylose glycoside isolated from the marine gorgonian Pseudopterogorgia elisabethae were both effective in reducing PMA-induced mouse ear edema when administered topically (ED50 (microg/ear) PSE(38), PSA(8)) or
BACKGROUND
This study aimed to investigate and characterize the anti-inflammatory and anti-hypernociceptive effects of the total polysaccharides of X. americana (TPL-Xa) bark in a mouse model of acute pancreatitis-induced by caerulein and the potential involvement of cannabinoid
In experiments on 245 male rats there was studied the influence of an inductor of xenobiotic metabolism enzymes, phenobarbital, an inhibitor of microsomal monooxygenases, cobalt chloride, and also coenzyme forms of vitamins B1 and B2, thiamine diphosphate and flavin mononucleotide on the
Three fucosylated chondroitin sulfate (fCS) were obtained from edible sea cucumbers Apostichopus japonicus, Stichopus chloronotus and Acaudina molpadioidea collected from China. fCS from Stichopus chloronotus was firstly reported. The detailed structures of fCSs, particularly the fucose branches,
BACKGROUND
Seaweed polysaccharides are highly active natural substances having valuable applications. The present study was conducted to characterize the physico-chemical properties of sulphated polysaccharides from three Mediterranean brown seaweeds (Cystoseira sedoides, Cystoseira compressa and
Fucoidan is a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweeds. Studies have shown that fucoidan has curative effects on the chronic renal failure, acute kidney injury, and diabetic nephropathy both in vitro and in vivo. Saccharina japonica is the most economically important brown seaweed
In the present study, the anti-nociception and anti-inflammatory activity of fucoidan isolated from T. Decurrens on formalin induced paw-edema in mice model were investigated. The extracted fucoidan contain 54.86% of total sugar, 23.51% of sulfate and 3.4% of protein. The monosaccharide composition
Fucan (SV1) sulfated polysaccharides from the brown algae Sargassum vulgare were extracted, fractionated in acetone and examined with respect to chemical composition, anticoagulant, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic effects and cellular proliferation. These polysaccharides contain low levels of
