Fucoidan from Undaria pinnatifida Induces Apoptosis in A549 Human Lung Carcinoma Cells

By Hye Jin Boo et al. Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide, has various biological activities, such as anticancer, antiangiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the mechanisms of fucoidan on anticancer activity have not been fully elucidated. The anticancer effects of fucoidan extracted from Undra pinnatifida on human lung carcinoma cells were tested and studied (Examination Method and […]

Fucoidan Therapy Decreases The Proviral Load In Patients With Human T-Lymphotropic Virus Type-1 Associated Neurological Disease

By Natumi Araya et al. Human T-lymphotropic virus type-1 (HTLV-1) is a human retrovirus that causes HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HMA/TAP) and adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). A higher viral load in individuals with HTLV-1 infection increases their risk of developing HAM/TSP and ATL. Reduction of the number of HTLV-1 infected cells is very important, […]

Fucoidan induces caspase-dependent apoptosis in MC3 human mucoepidermoid carcinoma cells (MEC)

                                                           By                                           Hang-Eun Lee et. al., Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide present in brown algae, has been identified to have multiple biological effects such as antitumor, immunomodulation, antiviral and anticoagulation. The effects of cancer cells are preventable in regard to the secondary fucoidan effect. In this study, we evaluate the effect of fucoidan on human […]

Antitumor activity of fucoidan against diffuse large B cell lymphoma

                                                By                                 Guang Yang et. al,.   According to lymphoid malignancies, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of high-grade non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Based on the pm gene expression profiling, DLBCL has been classified into three groups: Germinal center B-cell (GCB), Activated B-cell (ABC) and Primary mediastinal B-cell (PMBL), with a minority […]

Benefits of Fucoidan and cancer

Finally, I would like to discuss fucoidan benefit and cancer. Fucoidan is a dietary supplement, not medication, but it can help to fight with cancer in physically and mentally without any side effects. I have already shared the research and information on fucoidan benefits along with the side effects of conventional cancer treatment. There must […]
