Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most fatal stroke subtype, with no effective therapies. Hematoma expansion and inflammation play major roles in the pathophysiology of ICH, contributing to primary and secondary brain injury, respectively. Fucoidan, a polysaccharide from the brown seaweed Fucus
The antithrombotic activities and bleeding effects of selected fucoidans (source from either Undaria pinnatifida sporophylls or from Fucus vesiculosus) have been compared with heparin in the ferric chloride-induced arterial thrombus mouse model. Thrombosis was induced by applying 5% ferric chloride
The antithrombotic and hemorrhagic activities of fucoidan with molecular weight within 20 - 40 kD isolation from Fucus evanescens seaweed have been investigated. The antithrombin activity of fucoidan is 41 +/- 9 aIIa IU/mg and the anti-factor Oà activity is 38 +/- 8 aOà IU/mg. The antithrombin and
Inflammatory cells are postulated to mediate some of the brain damage following ischemic stroke. Intracerebral hemorrhage is associated with more inflammation than ischemic stroke. We tested the sulfated polysaccharide fucoidan, which has been reported to reduce inflammatory brain damage, in a rat
Beside biomaterials' bulk properties, their surface properties are equally important to control interfacial biocompatibility. However, due to the inadequate interaction with tissue, they may cause foreign body reaction. Moreover, surface induced thrombosis can occur when biomaterials are used for
Additional therapeutic options are needed for patients with bleeding disorders such as hemophilia A, hemophilia B, severe von Willebrand disease, and other rare factor deficiencies. A novel approach to improve coagulation in such clotting disorders has been identified that, parodoxically, involves
Fucoidans are complex sulfated polysaccharides extracted from brown algae. Depending on the concentration, they have been shown to stimulate and inhibit blood coagulation in vitro. Promotion of coagulation is mediated by blocking tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). We screened fucoidan extracts
BACKGROUND
Fucoidans extracted from brown algae represent an intriguing group of natural fucose-enriched sulfated polysaccharide, with excellent anticoagulant, antimetastatic, antiangiogenic and anti-inflammatory activities. In the present study, we compared antithrombotic activities of four
Acute ischaemic stroke, myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism are the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Thrombolysis by intravenous injection of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) remains the most common non-interventional treatment to recanalize occluded vessels.
BACKGROUND
Therapeutic use of unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) is limited by hemorrhagic adverse effects. We compared the antithrombotic effect of LMW fucoidan (LMWF) and LMWH in an experimental model.
METHODS
Thrombosis was induced in femoral arteries of male New
Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide from Fucus vesiculosus, decreases bleeding time and clotting time in hemophilia, possibly through inhibition of tissue factor pathway inhibitor. However, its effect on platelets and the receptor by which fucoidan induces cellular processes has not been elucidated.
Polysaccharides extracted from brown marine algae represent a source of marine compounds with potential applications in medicine. Heparin-like compounds, fucoidans, have been proposed as alternatives to the anticoagulant heparin, which is prepared from mucous membrane of mammals. In this study, the
Ifosfamide (IFO) is an antineoplastic drug that is commonly used to treat gynecological and breast cancers. Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a common side effect associated with IFO injection, which courses with neutrophil accumulation and affects 6-50% of patients depending on dose intensity. Here, we
What is the correct use of established clotting factors, prothrombin complex concentrates (PCCs), and activated factor VII in bleeding complications of trauma, surgery, and old and new oral anticoagulants? How will new clotting factors, specifically the long-acting factors, change the hemostatic
Fucoidans (high-molecular-weight sulfated polysaccharides extracted from brown seaweeds) have anticoagulant and antithrombotic effects. They inhibit thrombin by catalyzing both serpins (antithrombin and heparin cofactor II) according to their chemical structures and origins. In this study, a
