Neuroprotective Potential of Caulerpa lentillifera Extracts against Lipopolysaccharide‐Induced Neuroinflammation In Vitro [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract Background Current pharmacological therapies against Alzheimer’s disease (AD) merely relieve the clinical symptoms but fail to halt the progression of the neurodegenerative disease. This raises the need for alternative neuroprotective agents that can prevent AD.

RNAi reveals a unique set of kinesins mediating chloroplast motility in the giant cytoplasm of Bryopsis (Ulvophyceae), a coenocytic green alga. [PDF]

J Phycol
Abstract RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful tool for protein knockdown and is widely used in model animals and plants. Here, we implemented RNAi in Bryopsis, a green feather alga that develops a coenocytic thallus >10 cm in length without cytokinesis.

Potential of innovative marine aquaculture techniques to close nutrient cycles

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 947-964, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Aquaculture is an established technique for producing marine species. However, it creates large amounts of nutrient‐rich waste. Therefore, it is worth examining the methods available to use these nutrients and close the nutrient cycle. This review covers research activities of different saline water methods for food production.

Hyaluronidase-inhibiting Polysaccharide from Caulerpa lentillifera.

Journal of applied glycoscience, 2023
Algal sulfated polysaccharides are known to be effective hyaluronidase inhibitors. We evaluated hyaluronidase inhibitory activity of sulfated polysaccharide (SP) from Caulerpa lentillifera. Results showed that SP with IC50 of 163 µg/mL appears to allosterically inhibit the hyaluronidase activity.
