Bioactive polysaccharides and their potential health benefits in reducing the risks of metabolic syndrome: A review

Food Biomacromolecules, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 288-314, September 2025.
Abstract Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex noncommunicable condition characterized by central obesity, insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and hyperglycemia. Epidemiological evidence shows that MetS affects a third of the global population; however, due to its complex pathogenesis and limited drug therapy options, the increasing ...

Algae Protein Creates Sustainable Alternatives for Various Food Matrices: From Function to Nutrition

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 24, Issue 5, September 2025.
Abstract Protein deficiency and environmental deterioration are pressing and complex issues in traditional agriculture system. Algae, which can grow without the need of land and with minimal water, offer a rich source of protein. Recently, large‐scale algae cultivation and advanced extraction techniques have been developed, positioning algae protein as

Bimetallic nanoparticles with sulfated galactan eliminate Vibrio parahaemolyticus in shrimp Penaeus vannamei

Fish & Shellfish Immunology
Bimetallic (Au/Ag) nanoparticles (BNPs) have shown enhanced antibacterial activity compared to their monometallic counterparts. Sulfated galactans (SG) are a naturally occurring polymer commonly found in red seaweed Gracilaria fisheri. They are biocompatible and biodegradable and environmentally friendly.

Antithrombin-mediated anticoagulant activity of sulfated polysaccharides: different mechanisms for heparin and sulfated galactans.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2004
We investigated the mechanisms of anticoagulant activity mediated by sulfated galactans. The anticoagulant activity of sulfated polysaccharides is achieved mainly through potentiation of plasma cofactors, which are the natural inhibitors of coagulation proteases. Our results indicated the following.

Edematogenic activity of a sulfated galactan from the red marine algaeGelidium crinale

Pharmaceutical Biology, 2012
The red algae Gelidium crinale (Turner) Gaillon (Gelidiaceae), encountered along the Southeast and Northeast Brazilian sea coast, contains a sulfated galactan presenting a similar saccharide backbone compared to λ carrageenan. Inflammatory effects of other galactans were reported, but not for that obtained from G.
