Phlorotannins

, 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.

Multi-active phlorotannins boost antimicrobial peptide LL-37 to promote periodontal tissue regeneration in diabetic periodontitis

Materials Today Bio
The bidirectional correlation between diabetes and periodontitis positions the latter as the most prevalent complication of the former. Rehabilitation of the periodontal tissues damaged by diabetic periodontitis presents a significant clinical challenge.

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 ([

Constitutive or Inducible Protective Mechanisms against UV-B Radiation in the Brown Alga Fucus vesiculosus? A Study of Gene Expression and Phlorotannin Content Responses.

PLoS ONE, 2015
A role as UV sunscreens has been suggested for phlorotannins, the phenolic compounds that accumulate in brown algae in response to a number of external stimuli and take part in cell wall structure.
