General description

Fucoidan has a complex chemical composition. It contains mannose, galactose, glucose, xylose and other monosaccharides. It is also composed of uronic acids, acetyl groups and protein.
Fucoidan is a fucose-rich, sulfated polysaccharide isolated from several species of brown seaweed.

Application

Fucoidan from Undaria pinnatifida has been used to assess its antimicrobial potential in vitro.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Studies of fucoidan have found it to have a broad variety of biological activities including antitumor and antiangogenic activities, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, antithrombotic, and antioxidant activities. Fucoidan induces macrophage activation which subsequently activates mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and results in natural killer cell proliferation. Fucoidan acts as a nonselective selectin blocker and has been shown to induce apoptosis and suppress angiogenesis.

Endothelial dysfunction, characterized by impairment of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, has been implicated in diabetic cardiovascular pathogenesis. In this study, low-molecular-weight fucoidan (LMWF), which has multiple biological activities including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties, was
