Induction of hepatocyte growth factor by fucoidan and fucoidan-derived oligosaccharides
Abstract Fucoidan, which is extracted from brown seaweed, is a complex sulphated polysaccharide that is mostly composed of l-fucose and sulphated ester groups. The structural and anionic characteristics of fucoidan are similar to those of heparin.

Fucoidans from South African brown seaweeds: establishing the link between their structure and biological properties (anti-diabetic and anti-cancer activities) [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cancer are major non-communicable diseases causing a heavy morbidity-mortality and economic burden globally. The therapeutic efforts in managing these diseases are primarily chemotherapeutic and are associated with ...

Extraction of Fucoidan from Turbinaria decurrens and the Synthesis of Fucoidan-Coated AgNPs for Anticoagulant Application [PDF]
Brown seaweeds usually contain alginate as a major polymer. The second major sulfated polymer in brown seaweeds is fucoidan, which has huge potential in medicinal applications. In this study, the photosynthetic pigments from Turbinaria decurrens were first extracted using chloroform/methanol in the ratio of 1:1 (v/v), followed by fucoidan extraction ...

In Vitro Study of the Therapeutic Potential of Brown Crude Fucoidans in Osteoarthritis Treatment [PDF]
Osteoarthritis, one of the most common joint degenerative pathologies, still has no cure, and current treatments, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, can cause serious adverse effects when taken for a long time.

A “nutritional trap” strategy centered on disrupting bacterial iron homeostasis is proposed. The synthesized Bi‐TP@FU (TBF) can target Helicobacter pylori, interfere with the bacterial iron uptake and utilization processes to disrupt its iron homeostasis, induce bacterial death, and meanwhile preserve the balance of the intestinal flora.
