Structural Characterization and Physicochemical Property of a Purified Fucosylated Glycosaminoglycan Sulfate From Holothuria leucospilota

eFood, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
(1) The main chain structure of Holothuria leucospilota polysaccharides (HLP‐Ⅰ) was presumed to be roughly as →3)‐β‐d‐GalpNAc‐(1→4)‐β‐d‐GlcpA‐(1→. (2) with T‐Fucp on the branched chain or a rockulose chain consisting of →3,4)‐α‐l‐Fucp‐(1→. (3) HLP‐Ⅰ showed high amorphous platelet content and disordered arrangement, while the molecule adapted a sphere ...

Mild acid hydrolysis of sulfated fucans: a selective 2-desulfation reaction and an alternative approach for preparing tailored sulfated oligosaccharides [PDF]

Glycobiology, 2005
Sulfated fucans from marine invertebrates have simple, linear structures, composed of repeating units of oligosaccharides. Most of these polysaccharides contain 3-linked fucosyl units, but each species of invertebrate has a specific pattern of sulfation.

Fucoidan From Brown Algae as a Functional Food Ingredient: A Promising Anticancer Agent

eFood, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2025.
Fucoidan, a bioactive polysaccharide from brown algae, inhibits receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling, suppressing the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) and RAS/RAF/mitogen‐activated protein kinase/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase ...

The structure of a family 168 glycoside hydrolase from the marine bacterium Muricauda eckloniae

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 81, Issue 7, Page 281-286, July 2025.
The structure of a putative fucoidan‐degrading glycoside hydrolase assigned to glycoside hydrolase family 168 reveals a (β/α)8 fold. The catalytic machinery and potential substrate specificity were investigated through a structural comparison with a Fun168A oligosaccharide complex.The genome of the marine bacterium Muricauda eckloniae sp.

Bioactive Compounds in Seafood: Implications for Health and Nutrition

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.
Seafood is vital in promoting cardiovascular health, regulating blood sugar levels, reducing the risk of specific cancers, combating obesity, enhancing brain health, and supporting maternal care during pregnancy and lactation. Given the rising interest in functional foods and nutraceuticals, I believe this review will be particularly interesting to ...

Plant polysaccharide‐capped nanoparticles: A sustainable approach to modulate gut microbiota and advance functional food applications

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 2, March 2025.
Abstract Plant‐derived polysaccharides have emerged as sustainable biopolymers for fabricating nanoparticles (polysaccharide‐based nanomaterials [PS‐NPs]), presenting unique opportunities to enhance food functionality and human health. PS‐NPs exhibit exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and structural versatility, enabling their integration ...

Efficacy of β–Glucan From Microalgae on the Intestinal Health and Growth of Nursery Pigs

Animal Science Journal, Volume 96, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of β‐glucan from microalgae (Algamune, Algal Scientific, Plymouth, MI, USA) on the intestinal health and growth of nursery pigs. One hundred sixty nursery pigs (6.0 ± 1.6 kg BW) were assigned to four treatments arranged in a 2 × 2 factor: antibiotic use and β‐glucan supplementation (0.02% Algamune).
