Inflammation induces pancreatic islet cell apoptosis. Effects of fucoidan from Acaudina molpadioides (Am-FUC) on inhibition of pancreatic islet cell apoptosis and inflammation in type 2 diabetic mice were investigated. Am-FUC repaired pancreatic islet cells, decreased serum C-reactive protein (CRP),
A system for assessing the anti-inflammatory effects of food factors was developed by establishing a co-culture system with intestinal epithelial Caco-2 cells and macrophage RAW264.7 cells. The results indicate that fucoidan and lentinan exhibited different suppressive effects on interleukin-8
The suppression of MAPK and oxidative stress could be an important anti-inflammatory mechanism. Fucoidan regulates MAPK activity in several cell lines. However, the mechanism for the anti-inflammatory and oxidative stress effect of low molecular weight fucoidan (LMWF) is poorly understood in
Neutrophil recruitment into systemic inflammatory sites in vivo is thought to be initiated by selectin-mediated endothelial adherence. The effect of fucoidan (natural sulfated polymer of L-fucose) on the selectin dependent PMN migration into rat peritoneum following the induction of inflammation by
Enzymatic extraction has been successfully used for extracting numerous biologically active compounds from a wide variety of seaweeds. In this study, we found that enzymatic extraction of the fucoidan from Ecklonia cava may be more advantageous than water extraction. Therefore, we studied the E.
Fucoidan has been reported to have a variety of biological activities. However, different algae species, extraction methods, harvesting seasons, and growth regions lead to the structural variation of fucoidan, which would affect the bioactivities of fucoidan. To date, the anti-inflammatory
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury after a liver transplant is a major cause of severe complications that lead to graft dysfunction. Fucoidan, a complex of sulfated polysaccharides derived from marine brown algae, demonstrated antiapoptotic as well as potential anti-inflammatory properties in
Nutrition excess-induced inflammation positively contributed to insulin resistance. Fucoidan from sea cucumber can increase glucose translocation in skeletal muscle. However, its effects on inflammation-associated insulin resistance are not understood. We investigated fucoidan from Isostichopus
Fucoidan is a natural polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweeds, with a wide variety of biological features, especially the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. Studies indicated that the anti-inflammatory effect of fucoidan related to its capacity to interact with the selectin or
The glycoprotein processing inhibitor castanospermine (CS) and the monosaccharide mannose-6-phosphate (M6P), as well as some sulfated polysaccharides (SPS), have been shown to inhibit inflammation in rat models of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and adjuvant-induced arthritis. Here, the
Exposition of neutrophils (polymorphonuclear neutrophils, PMNs) to bacterial products triggers exacerbated activation of these cells, increasing their harmful effects on host tissues. We evaluated the possibility of interfering with the classic immune innate responses of human PMNs exposed to
Obesity is a metabolic disorder, associated with cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Recent studies suggest that seaweed extracts are a significant source of bioactive compounds that are similar to dietary phytochemicals. Fucoidan, which is extracted from brown seaweeds, has a
Fucoidans are an interesting group of bioactive sulfated polysaccharides abundant in brown seaweeds. The current study highlights the enrichment and extraction of fucoidan from Chnoospora minima by means of enzyme-assistant extraction using Celluclast and evaluation of its anti-inflammatory
Fucoidan is sulfated polysaccharide of brown seaweed. It offers various pharmacological actions like anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial and anti-tumor activities. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of targeting microRNA-143 and inflammatory pathway by Fucoidan on experimentally induced
The anti-inflammatory, antiangiogenic, anticoagulant, and antiadhesive properties of fucoidans obtained from nine species of brown algae were studied in order to examine the influence of fucoidan origin and composition on their biological activities. All fucoidans inhibited leucocyte recruitment in
