Cardioprotective activity of Cladosiphon okamuranus fucoidan against isoproterenol induced myocardial infarction in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fucoidans, sulfated polysaccharides of brown algae, have attracted steady attention in the last few years as readily accessible biopolymers possessing a wide spectrum of biological activities. In this study, cardioprotective activity of fucoidan extracted from Cladosiphon okamuranus was evaluated in

Purification of a low molecular weight fucoidan for SPECT molecular imaging of myocardial infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fucoidans constitute a large family of sulfated polysaccharides with several biochemical properties. A commercial fucoidan from brown algae, containing low molecular weight polysaccharidic species constituted of l-fucose, uronic acids and sulfate groups, was simply treated here with calcium acetate

Therapeutic potential of fucoidan in myocardial ischemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed, is a candidate for the treatment of ischemic diseases. The aim of this study was to measure the therapeutic potential of fucoidan in a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Forty rats were submitted to myocardial

Amino-Fucoidan as a Vector for rtPA-Induced Fibrinolysis in Experimental Thrombotic Events.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acute ischaemic stroke, myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism are the main causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Thrombolysis by intravenous injection of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) remains the most common non-interventional treatment to recanalize occluded vessels.

Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide from brown algae, against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats via regulating the inflammation response.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of the study was to determine the effects of fucoidan on rat myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) model and elucidate the potential mechanisms. Myocardial I/R injury was induced by the occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 min followed by reperfusion for 2h. After 2h

Protective Role of Fucoidan in Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury through Inhibition of MAPK Signaling Pathway.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fucoidan has been reported to exhibit various beneficial activities ranging from to antivirus and anticancer properties. However, little information is available about the effects of fucoidan on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Our study aimed to explore the effects of fucoidan on

Monocytes influence the fate of T cells challenged with oxidised low density lipoproteins towards apoptosis or MHC-restricted proliferation.

Atherosclerosis has been implicated in myocardial infarction, stroke and a host of cardiovascular diseases. The presence of activated T lymphocytes and macrophages, and the increased expression of HLA-DR antigen are consistent with the notion of immune activity in the atherosclerotic plaque. The

Effects of C-reactive protein and pentosan polysulphate on human complement activation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Complement (C) activation is believed to play an adverse role in several chronic degenerative disease processes, including atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and Alzheimer's disease. We developed several in vitro quantitative assays to evaluate processes which activate C in human serum, and to

Antagonism of selectin function attenuates microvascular platelet deposition and platelet-mediated myocardial injury after transient ischemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to assess whether selectin blockade reduces myocardial platelet deposition and platelet-mediated injury after transient ischemia. BACKGROUND Selectins participate in platelet adhesion to reperfused endothelium. METHODS Thiopental-anesthetized, open-chest pigs

Turbinaria conoides (J. Agardh) sulfated polysaccharide protects rat's heart against myocardial injury.

Only registered users can translate articles

In recent years, sulfated polysaccharide (fucoidan) is being marketed as a nutraceutical and food supplement because of its various established pharmacological activities. Hence this study was designed to investigate the protective effect of fucoidan extracted from Turbinaria conoides against
