Are Helicobacter pylori Infection and Fucoidan Consumption Associated with Fucoidan Absorption? [PDF]
We examined the associations of Helicobacter pylori and mozuku consumption with fucoidan absorption. Overall, 259 Japanese volunteers consumed 3 g fucoidan, and their urine samples were collected to measure fucoidan values and H. pylori titers before and

Fucoidans and Bowel Health [PDF]
Fucoidans are cell wall polysaccharides found in various species of brown seaweeds. They are fucose-containing sulfated polysaccharides (FCSPs) and comprise 5–20% of the algal dry weight. Fucoidans possess multiple bioactivities, including antioxidant, anticoagulant, antithrombotic, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-lipidemic, anti-metastatic, anti ...

Fucoidans in Nanomedicine [PDF]
Fucoidans are widespread cost-effective sulfated marine polysaccharides which have raised interest in the scientific community over last decades for their wide spectrum of bioactivities. Unsurprisingly, nanomedicine has grasped these compounds to develop innovative therapeutic and diagnostic nanosystems. The applications of fucoidans in nanomedicine as

Inflammation is a phenomenon responsible for the perturbation of homeostasis in several levels, with many sources, such as infection, injury, and exposure to contaminants. The necessity of new products that are effective in treating inflammation processes as can selectively imaging an inflammation site is a global issue.

Intestinal Absorption of Fucoidan Extracted from the Brown Seaweed, Cladosiphon okamuranus
The aim of this study was to examine the absorption of fucoidan through the intestinal tract. Fucoidan (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/mL) was added to Transwell inserts containing Caco-2 cells. The transport of fucoidan across Caco-2 cells increased in a

Fucoidans: Pro- or antiangiogenic agents? [PDF]
Sulfated polysaccharides of brown algae (fucoidans) attract great attention due to their high and strongly diversified biological activity. This review summarizes recent data on the structural variability of these polysaccharides and reports their anti- and proangiogenic properties.

Research Progress on Fucoidan-Degrading Enzymes [PDF]
Fucoidan-degrading enzymes are glycoside hydrolases that hydrolyze fucoidan into low molecular mass fucosan with biological activity or other products.

Influence of Fucoidans on Hemostatic System [PDF]
Three structurally different fucoidans from the brown seaweeds Saccharina latissima (SL), Fucus vesiculosus (FV), and Cladosiphon okamuranus (CO), two chemically modified fucoidans with a higher degree of sulfation (SL-S, CO-S), and a synthetic totally sulfated octasaccharide (OS), related to fucoidans, were assessed on anticoagulant and antithrombotic
