Antiproliferative activity of fucan nanogel.

Mar. Drugs 10(9) , 2002-22, (2012)

Sulfated fucans comprise families of polydisperse natural polysaccharides based on sulfated L-fucose. Our aim was to investigate whether fucan nanogel induces cell-specific responses. To that end, a n...

Targeting P-selectin by gallium-68-labeled fucoidan positron emission tomography for noninvasive characterization of vulnerable plaques: correlation with in vivo 17.6T MRI.

Arterioscler. Thromb. Vasc. Biol. 34(8) , 1661-7, (2014)

Nuclear imaging of active plaques still remains challenging. Advanced atherosclerotic plaques have a strong expression of P-selectin by the endothelium overlying active atherosclerotic plaques, but no...

Modulation of platelet aggregation-related eicosanoid production by dietary F-fucoidan from brown alga Laminaria japonica in human subjects.

Br. J. Nutr. 110(5) , 880-90, (2013)

Laminaria japonica is traditionally eaten in Japan as a beneficial food for thrombosis. The alga contains two specific ingredients, a xanthophyll fucoxanthin (FX) and a polysaccharide, F-fucoidan (FD)...
