Mechanisms of Bioactivities of Fucoidan from the Brown Seaweed Fucus vesiculosus L. of the Barents Sea

The findings suggest that the inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) is one of the possible mechanisms involved in the anti-hyperglycemic activity of fucoidan.

In Vitro Chemopreventive Potential of Phlorotannins-Rich Extract from Brown Algae by Inhibition of Benzo[a]pyrene-Induced P2X7 Activation and Toxic Effects

A phlorotannins-rich extract obtained from the brown algae is identified that could be deeper investigated as a cancer chemopreventive agent to block B[a]P-mediated carcinogenesis.

Antioxidant capacities of phlorotannins extracted from the brown algae Fucus vesiculosus.

A process for the effective extraction and fractionation of phlorotannins from Fucus vesiculosus with high antioxidant potentials was investigated, finding no clear relationships between the degree of polymerization, molecular size, and antioxidant activity.

Evaluation for Antioxidative Properties of Phlorotannins Isolated from the Brown Alga Eisenia bicyclis, by the H-ORAC Method

Effect of Food Preparations on In Vitro Bioactivities and Chemical Components of Fucus vesiculosus

The in vitro results suggest that the preparation of F. vesiculosus as a soup could have hypercholesterolemia lowering effect and the mode of preparation significantly influenced the final bioactivities.

Can Phlorotannins Purified Extracts Constitute a Novel Pharmacological Alternative for Microbial Infections with Associated Inflammatory Conditions?

The results obtained turn phlorotannins purified extracts a novel and potent pharmacological alternative for the treatment of a wide range of microbial infections, which usually also present an inflammatory component.

Isolation of polyphenols with anticancer activity from the Baltic Sea brown seaweed Fucus vesiculosus using bioassay-guided fractionation

Investigation of the alga’s cytotoxic potential against human pancreatic cancer cells and a purification procedure for the active compounds by using a bioassay-guided fractionation approach show that F. vesiculosus from the Baltic Sea holds potent and novel anticancer substances.

Bactericidal activity of phlorotannins from the brown alga Ecklonia kurome.

The bactericidal effects of the phlorotannins were more pronounced than those of the catechins against food-borne pathogenic bacteria and were as effective against MRSA as against the other bacteria tested.

Co-occurrence and antioxidant activities of fucol and fucophlorethol classes of polymeric phenols in Fucus spiralis

It is shown, for the first time in any alga, that Fucus spiralis has simultaneous production of two types of polymeric phlorotannins of the fucol and fucophlorethol classes, respectively, which exhibited a greater antioxidant activity than ascorbic acid and the monomer phloroglucinol.

It is suggestive that triphlorethol-A protects V79-4 cells against H2O2 damage by enhancing the cellular antioxidative activity.

Antioxidant activity of fresh and processed edible seaweeds

The antioxidant activity of aqueous/organic extracts of processed and raw edible seaweeds was determined using three methods, namely (a) free radical (DPPH·) scavenging, (b) ferric-reducing…

The antibacterial effect of a polyhydroxylated fucophlorethol from the marine brown alga, Fucus vesiculosus

An antibacterial compound was isolated from the brown alga Fucus vesiculosus and results obtained by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry indicated that the antibacterial activity was caused by a polyhydroxylated fucophlorethol.

Evaluation of quantitative methods for the determination of polyphenols in algal extracts.

Four methods for the quantitative determination of phlorotannins are compared and the determination using Folin-Ciocalteu's phenol reagent and qHNMR proved to be the most reliable and precise methods.
