Carrageenan (Cg) was tested for its effects on the growth of, and immunity to, 2 methylcholanthrene-induced syngeneic murine fibrosarcomas (H1 and H2). The tumours were found not to share major tumour-specific transplantation antigens. H2 appeared more immunogenic than H1. In contrast to H1,
Eicosanoid synthesis by alveolar macrophages (AM), harvested from tumor bearing animals, was measured after tumor inoculation in rats treated with or without carrageenan (carra), an immunomodulating agent. After incubation of the cells with [14]C-arachidonic acid and the Ca-ionophore A23187, samples
Carrageenan, a sulfated polygalactose with known macrophage-toxic properties, was used to ascertain the role of macrophages in resistance to adenovirus type 12 transplantable tumors. A single ip injection of 5 or 10 mg carrageenan led to increased incidence and more rapid growth of tumors in C3H
In this paper we compare two innovative models of movement-related pain: tumor-induced nociception following implantation of fibrosarcoma cells into bone and muscle inflammation-induced nociception following injection of the irritant carrageenan into muscle. Importantly, using the grip force test,
We used the mouse air pouch model of inflammation to study the interaction between cytokines, prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and cell migration during the various phases of acute local inflammation induced by carrageenan. In serum, the levels of interleukin 1 (IL-1), interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumour
Mitomycin C treatment of 3-methylcholanthrene-induced syngeneic tumor cells in male mice of the highly inbred strain CBA/WEHI was a convenient and effective method for producing viable but nondividing tumor cells. A single sc injection of 1 x 10(6) mitomycin C-treated syngeneic tumor cells (MCT)
Gigartina pistillata is a red seaweed common in Figueira da Foz, Portugal. Here, the antitumour potential of G. pistillata carrageenan, with a known variable of the life cycle, the female gametophyte (FG) and tetrasporophyte (T) was evaluated against colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC)
Lambda-carrageenan is a sulfated galactan isolated from some red algae and have been reported to have many kinds of biological activities. Chondrus ocellatus is an important economic alga in China and many other parts of the world. The sample was obtained after lambda-carrageenan from the alga was
The mechanisms of non-specific resistance to syngeneic methylcholanthrene-induced fibrosarcomas of mice were investigated. Results showed that a small tumour graft of 0.05 X 10(5) cells is greatly enhanced in growth when admixed with large numbers of cell fragments, killed cells or viable
A purified i-carrageenan prepared by means of pronase digestion and fractional precipitation with KCl was investigated for its growth-inhibitory effect on mouse leukemia L-1210 transplanted in (C57BL/6 x DBA/2)F1 (BDF1) mice. This carrageenan specimen was not growth-inhibitory on this tumor when it
In the present study, we used tumour necrosis factor-alpha receptor 1 knock-out mice (TNF-alphaR1KO) to evaluate an in vivo role of TNF-alphaR1 on the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. We used a murine model of carrageenan-induced acute inflammation (pleurisy), a preclinical model of airway
The current study is to develop a natural drug carrier with seaweed derived polymers namely κ-Carrageenan (κ-Car) for drug delivery applications. κ-Car is a natural polysaccharide which derived from edible red seaweeds, they are easily available, non-toxic, cost effective, biodegradable and
Seaweeds are some of the largest producers of biomass in the marine environment and are rich in bioactive compounds that are often used for human and animal health. Porphyran and carrageenan are natural compounds derived from red seaweeds. The former is a characteristic polysaccharide of
Cervical cancer is one of the most occurring cancers and the fourth leading occurrence of cancer in women, worldwide. In this study, we planned to synthesis κ-Carrageenan grafted graphene oxide nanocarrier conjugated with biotin (GO-κ-Car-biotin) for targeted cervical cancer. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a
In tumor development, the degradation of heparan sulfate (HS) by heparanase (HPSE) is associated with cell-surface and extracellular matrix remodeling as well as the release of HS-bound signaling molecules, allowing cancer cell migration, invasion and angiogenesis. Because of their structural
