C-phycocyanin alleviated cisplatin-induced oxidative stress and inflammation via gut microbiota—metabolites axis in mice

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
C-phycocyanin is a natural protein extracted from Spirulina platensis. We aim to investigate the preventive effect of C-phycocyanin on cisplatin chemotherapy-induced oxidative damage and inflammation.

Psychrophile C-Phycocyanin [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 1979
C-Phycocyanin was purified from an alga isolated in the Antarctic in 1968 and grown since that time in our laboratory at 4 C. Certain of its spectroscopic and immunochemical properties were studied, along with detailed examinations of its chemical composition and quaternary structure.
