, 2019 Natural marine-derived compounds show excellent biological activities. Isolation, characterization and applications of marine derived compounds show a promising way to develop novel drugs to treat various diseases. Phlorotannins are one of the main compounds which are commonly isolated from the brown seaweeds.

Combinatorial Prophylactic Effect of Phlorotannins With Photobiomodulation Against Tracheal Stenosis
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022 Several conventional treatments are used to manage tracheal stenosis after intubation and surgical procedures; however, patients are at risk of restenosis because of the absence of effective preventative therapy. In this study, we evaluate the biomodulatory effect of PT-combined blue light (BL) PBM in tracheostomal stenosis-induced animal models.

A Key Step in Phlorotannin Biosynthesis Revealed [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 2013 Phlorotannins are a diverse set of polymers synthesized by brown algae, but their physiological functions are not well understood. They are structurally analogous to terrestrial plant tannins and are proposed to be important in cell wall structure, UV protection, and defense against herbivores ([

Aloe vera Tannin Ameliorates Fructose‐Induced Dyslipidaemia and Oxidative Stress in Wistar Rats
Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.Aloe vera tannin (AVT) significantly enhances liver reduced glutathione and superoxide dismutase activities in rats. Fructose consumption creates dyslipidaemia in rats by significantly increasing serum cholesterol and LDL levels. AVT prevented fructose‐induced dyslipidaemia in rats by controlling the lipid profile. AVT did not affect liver, hippocampus
