Opis

General description

Fucoidan is a fucose-rich, sulfated polysaccharide isolated from several species of brown seaweed.

Fucoidan has a complex chemical composition. It contains mannose, galactose, glucose, xylose and other monosaccharides. It is also composed of uronic acids, acetyl groups and protein.

Application

Fucoidan from Undaria pinnatifida has been used to assess its antimicrobial potential in vitro.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Studies of fucoidan have found it to have a broad variety of biological activities including antitumor and antiangogenic activities, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, antithrombotic, and antioxidant activities. Fucoidan induces macrophage activation which subsequently activates mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and results in natural killer cell proliferation. Fucoidan acts as a nonselective selectin blocker and has been shown to induce apoptosis and suppress angiogenesis.
