[PMID: 38529643 DOI: 10.1080/10837450.2024.2332454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
In this article, we described a novel antituberculosis imidazotetrazine derivative designed in fucoidan-coated liposomes to reduce its cytotoxicity and investigate its mucoadhesive properties. Firstly, fucoidan extracted from Ascophyllum nodosum was used for additional stabilization of liposomal suspensions and to give it mucoadhesive properties. PEG-600 and/or Tween-80 were used to increase the shelf life of liposomal suspension. The ratio of the fucoidan: lipids 1:2 was found to be the optimum that produces stable fucoidan-coated liposomes. The particle size of the optimum formulation was 336.3 ± 5.4, the PDI was 0.33, and the zeta potential was -39.6. This size and the practical spherical shape of the particles were confirmed by atomic force microscopy. In addition, the in vitro release profiles from uncoated and fucoidan-coated liposomes revealed significant and faster release compared to free antituberculosis agent. Using the MTT assay test, the fucoidan-coated liposomes exhibited fourteen times lower cytotoxicity (IC50 7.14 ± 0.91 µg/ml) than the free drug (IC50 0.49 ± 0.06). Moreover, the mucoadhesive capabilities of these liposomal formulations were also confirmed using snail mucin, which highlighting their potential use as an effective delivery system for antituberculosis therapy, with notable improvements in dissolution rate and reduced cytotoxicity.

Seaweeds in the Oncology Arena: Anti-Cancer Potential of Fucoidan as a Drug—A Review. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27186032. [PMID: 36144768 PMCID: PMC9506145 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27186032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Marine natural products are a discerning arena to search for the future generation of medications to treat a spectrum of ailments. Meanwhile, cancer is becoming more ubiquitous over the world, and the likelihood of dying from it is rising. Surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy are the mainstays of cancer treatment worldwide, but their extensive side effects limit their curative effect. The quest for low-toxicity marine drugs to prevent and treat cancer is one of the current research priorities of researchers. Fucoidan, an algal sulfated polysaccharide, is a potent therapeutic lead candidate against cancer, signifying that far more research is needed. Fucoidan is a versatile, nontoxic marine-origin heteropolysaccharide that has received much attention due to its beneficial biological properties and safety. Fucoidan has been demonstrated to exhibit a variety of conventional bioactivities, such as antiviral, antioxidant, and immune-modulatory characteristics, and anticancer activity against a wide range of malignancies has also recently been discovered. Fucoidan inhibits tumorigenesis by prompting cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, blocking metastasis and angiogenesis, and modulating physiological signaling molecules. This review compiles the molecular and cellular aspects, immunomodulatory and anticancer actions of fucoidan as a natural marine anticancer agent. Specific fucoidan and membranaceous polysaccharides from Ecklonia cava, Laminaria japonica, Fucus vesiculosus, Astragalus, Ascophyllum nodosum, Codium fragile serving as potential anticancer marine drugs are discussed in this review.

Abstract
Fucoidans encompass versatile and heterogeneous sulfated biopolysaccharides of marine origin, specifically brown algae and marine invertebrates. Their chemistry and bioactivities have been extensively investigated in the last few decades. The reported studies revealed diverse chemical skeletons in which l-fucose is the main sugar monomer. However, other sugars, i.e., galactose, mannose, etc., have been identified to be interspersed, forming several heteropolymers, including galactofucans/fucogalactans (G-fucoidans). Particularly, sulfated galactofucans are associated with rich chemistry contributing to more promising bioactivities than fucans and other marine polysaccharides. The previous reports in the last 20 years showed that G-fucoidans derived from Undaria pinnatifida were the most studied; 21 bioactivities were investigated, especially antitumor and antiviral activities, and unique biomedical applications compared to other marine polysaccharides were demonstrated. Hence, the current article specifically reviews the biogenic sources, chemistry, and outstanding bioactivities of G-fucoidans providing the opportunity to discover novel drug candidates.

Abstract
Nowadays, consumers are increasingly aware of the relationship between diet and health, showing a greater preference of products from natural origin. In the last decade, seaweeds have outlined as one of the natural sources with more potential to obtain bioactive carbohydrates. Numerous seaweed polysaccharides have aroused the interest of the scientific community, due to their biological activities and their high potential on biomedical, functional food and technological applications. To obtain polysaccharides from seaweeds, it is necessary to find methodologies that improve both yield and quality and that they are profitable. Nowadays, environmentally friendly extraction technologies are a viable alternative to conventional methods for obtaining these products, providing several advantages like reduced number of solvents, energy and time. On the other hand, chemical modification of their structure is a useful approach to improve their solubility and biological properties, and thus enhance the extent of their potential applications since some uses of polysaccharides are still limited. The present review aimed to compile current information about the most relevant seaweed polysaccharides, available extraction and modification methods, as well as a summary of their biological activities, to evaluate knowledge gaps and future trends for the industrial applications of these compounds.Key teaching pointsStructure and biological functions of main seaweed polysaccharides.Emerging extraction methods for sulfate polysaccharides.Chemical modification of seaweeds polysaccharides.Potential industrial applications of seaweed polysaccharides.Biological activities, knowledge gaps and future trends of seaweed polysaccharides.

Abstract
Polysaccharide fractions of alginate, laminarans and fucoidans were obtained from the brown alga Tauya basicrassa. Yields of alginate and laminarans were large (19.7 % and 5.62 %, respectively), whereas the content of fucoidans (0.52 %) was not significant. Alginate and laminarans had typical structures for those substances. Fucoidans were low- and medium-sulfated heterogeneous polysaccharides. The fucoidan fraction 1TbF1 was sulfated fucogalactan containing a backbone from 1,6-linked residues of β-d-galactopyranose with branches at C3 and C4, terminal fucose and galactose residues and fragments from 1,3-; 1,4-; and 1,2-fucose residues. Sulfate groups were found at positions 2 and 4 of fucose, and positions 2, 3 and 4 of galactose residues. Laminaran 2TbL was subjected to a sulfation to obtain the derivative 2TbLS with partial sulfation (46 %) at C2, C4 and C6. It was shown that 2TbL and 2TbLS inhibited colony formation of sensitize-tested colon cancer cells HT-29 and HCT-116 to X-ray radiation.

Abstract
In the current review, compositional data on fucoidans extracted from more than hundred different species were surveyed through the available literature. The analysis of crude extracts, purified extracts or carefully isolated fractions is included in tabular form, discriminating the seaweed source by its taxonomical order (and sometimes the family). This survey was able to encounter some similarities between the different species, as well as some differences. Fractions which were obtained through anion-exchange chromatography or cationic detergent precipitation showed the best separation patterns: the fractions with low charge correspond mostly to highly heterogeneous fucoidans, containing (besides fucose) other monosaccharides like xylose, galactose, mannose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid, and contain low-sulfate/high uronic acid proportions, whereas those with higher total charge usually contain mainly fucose, accompanied with variable proportions of galactose, are highly sulfated and show almost no uronic acids. The latter fractions are usually the most biologically active. Fractions containing intermediate proportions of both polysaccharides appear at middle ionic strengths. This pattern is common for all the orders of brown seaweeds, and most differences appear from the seaweed source (habitat, season), and from the diverse extraction, purification, and analytitcal methods. The Dictyotales appear to be the most atypical order, as usually large proportions of mannose and uronic acids appear, and thus they obscure the differences between the fractions with different charge. Within the family Alariaceae (order Laminariales), the presence of sulfated galactofucans with high galactose content (almost equal to that of fucose) is especially noteworthy.

Abstract
Fucoidans are marine sulfated biopolysaccharides that have heterogenous and complicated chemical structures. Various sugar monomers, glycosidic linkages, molecular masses, branching sites, and sulfate ester pattern and content are involved within their backbones. Additionally, sources, downstream processes, and geographical and seasonal factors show potential effects on fucoidan structural characteristics. These characteristics are documented to be highly related to fucoidan potential activities. Therefore, numerous chemical qualitative and quantitative determinations and structural elucidation methods are conducted to characterize fucoidans regarding their physicochemical and chemical features. Characterization of fucoidan polymers is considered a bottleneck for further biological and industrial applications. Consequently, the obtained results may be related to different activities, which could be improved afterward by further functional modifications. The current article highlights the different spectrometric and nonspectrometric methods applied for the characterization of native fucoidans, including degree of purity, sugar monomeric composition, sulfation pattern and content, molecular mass, and glycosidic linkages.

Abstract
Seaweeds, which have been widely used for human consumption, are considered a potential source of biological compounds, where enzyme-assisted extraction can be an efficient method to obtain multifunctional extracts. Chemical characterization of Sargassum muticum and Osmundea pinnatifida extracts obtained by Alcalase and Viscozyme assisted extraction, respectively, showed an increment of macro/micro elements in comparison to the corresponding dry seaweeds, while the ratio of Na/K decreased in both extracts. Galactose, mannose, xylose, fucose, and glucuronic acid were the main monosaccharides (3.2-27.3 mg/glyophilized extract) present in variable molar ratios, whereas low free amino acids content and diversity (1.4-2.7 g/100gprotein) characterized both extracts. FTIR-ATR and 1H NMR spectra confirmed the presence of important polysaccharide structures in the extracts, namely fucoidans from S. muticum or agarans as sulfated polysaccharides from O. pinnatifida. No cytotoxicity against normal mammalian cells was observed from 0 to 4 mglyophilized extract/mL for both extracts. The comprehensive characterization of the composition and safety of these two extracts fulfils an important step towards their authorized application for nutritional and/or nutraceutical purposes.

Abstract
The review is devoted to critical analysis of literature data, deal with effects and mechanisms of action of sulfated polysaccharides (PSs) – fucoidans from brown algae and products of their enzymatic transformation as potential adjuvants for enhancement of anti-infective and antitumor immune response. Numerous experimental data indicate that sulfated PSs demonstrate properties of vaccine adjuvants. Application perspectiveness of fucoidans as vaccine adjuvants is defined by their high biocompatibility, low-toxicity, safety and good tolerance by macroorganism, and also mechanisms of their immunomodulatory action. In particular, fucoidans are agonists of receptors of innate immunity and strong inducers of cellular and humoral immune response. At presenting the data of structural - functional interrelations, attention focused to the defining role of degree of sulfation, uronic acids and polyphenols contents, and also molecular mass in actions of fucoidans to innate and adaptive immunity cells. Insufficiency of literary data on studying of correlation of structure – physicochemical characteristics with adjuvanticities of the sulfated PSs, and also the problem of standardization of their active fractions are noted. Special attention is paid to the analysis of immunomodulatory and adjuvant activity of fucoidan oligosaccharides. Presented here results of experimental trial indicate that, despite the difficulties due to preparation of highly purified structurally characterized fractions and complex structure of fucoidans, these substances can be used as safe and effective adjuvants in vaccines against various pathogens including viruses, and also in antitumor vaccines.

Abstract
A fucoidan ScF from brown alga Saccharina cichorioides was extracted, purified and partially depolymerized by autohydrolysis at 37°C for 24, 48 and 72h. Supernatant (SN) and pellet (PL) fractions were obtained by ethanol precipitation of each sample. Unlike spectral data of ScF, NMR of PL derivatives clearly suggested the structure: 1,3-linked α-l-Fucp-4-OSO3- repeating unit. Molecular weights (MWs) of PL fractions were 30, 26 and 18kDa for 24, 48 and 72h of autohydrolyis, respectively. MALDI-TOFMS, size-exclusion HPLC and carbohydrate polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis (C-PAGE) indicated a similarity of SN mixtures. They consisted mainly of a polysaccharide part (MW 6kDa, C-PAGE data) with a structure similar to PL components (NMR data) and monosaccharides α-l-Fucp-4-OSO3-, α-l-Fucp-2,4-di-OSO3-. PL fractions exhibited almost identical antiproliferative activity in vitro as native fucoidan, while an SN sample for 72h of autohydrolysis was slightly more active against colony formation of colorectal carcinoma cells HT-29.

Abstract
A sulfated galactofucan SgF (MW 123kDa) was purified from the brown alga Saccharina gurjanovae. Polysaccharide was depolymerized by autohydrolysis at 25 and 60°C, and products were studied by mass spectrometry and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. According to results of investigation, the main chain of this polysaccharide is built of a repeating units →3)-α-L-Fucp-(2,4-OSO3(-))-(1→. Fucose chains could be sometimes terminated by (1→3)-linked galactose residues. Shorter (1→4)- and/or (1→6)-linked sulfated galactose chains are attached at positions C-2, C-3 of fucose residues. Sulfate groups can occupy positions C-2 and/or sometimes C-3 of Gal residues, but a sulfation at C-4 of the galactofucan could not be excluded. The SgF-AH25-H preparation (71kDa) was obtained by autohydrolysis of SgF at 25°C, which leaded to a selective desulfation at C-2 and, probably, to a cleavage of galactose chains, since structure of SgF-AH25-H represented a repeating unit →3)-α-l-Fucp-(4-OSO3(-))-(1→, which was definitely established by (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Galactofucan SgF and its derivative SgF-AH25-H exhibited no cytotoxic activity and leaded to about the same colony formation inhibition in colon cancer DLD-1 cells. Hence, structural simplification of SgF by lowering its molecular weight, desulfation at C-2 and removing of galactose residues by autohydrolysis at 25°C did not decrease its anticancer activity. This procedure allows obtaining standardized products which can be used as medical.

Abstract
The sulfated-fucans, known as fucoidans, were isolated from Agarum cribrosum and fractionated using ion-exchange chromatography to determine their molecular characteristics and in vitro immunomodulatory activity. The crude and fractionated fucoidans (F1 and F2) consisted mostly of carbohydrates (52.4-56.0%), sulfates (12.7-23.0%) and uronic acid (14.1-21.8%), with a small amount of proteins (3.9-9.3%), and included various levels of fucose (44.0-46.7%), mannose (18.9-26.8%), galactose (16.8-33.0%), xylose (10.7-17.0%) and glucose (3.5-9.5%). The crude and fractionated fucans contained one or two subfractions with average molecular weights (Mw) ranging from 110.1 × 10(3) to 2420 × 10(3)g/mol. The fractionated fucoidan, especially the F1 fraction, strongly stimulated murine macrophages (Raw 264.7 cells), producing a considerable amount of nitric oxide (NO) and inducing expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) transcripts by activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) pathways. The maximally immunoenhancing F1 fraction was mainly composed of (1 → 3)-linked fucose, (1 → 2)-linked mannose and (1 → 4)-linked glucuronic acid with sulfates at C-2 or both the C-2 and C-4 positions in (1 → 2,3)- and (1 → 2,3,4)-linked fucose residues.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases are endopeptidases which belong to the group of metalloproteinases that contribute for the extracellular matrix degradation and several tissue remodeling processes. An imbalance in the regulation of these endopeptidases eventually leads to several severe pathological complications like cancers, cardiac, cartilage, and neurological-related diseases. Hence, inhibitory substances of metalloproteinases (MMPIs) could prove beneficial in the management of above specified pathological conditions. The available synthetic MMPIs that have been reported until now have few shortcomings, and thus many of them could not make to the final clinical trials. Hence, a growing interest among researchers on screening of MMPIs from different natural resources is evident and especially natural products from marine origin. As there has been an unparalleled contribution of several biologically active compounds from marine resources that have shown a profound applications in nutraceuticals, cosmeceuticals, and pharmaceuticals, we have attempted to discuss the various MMPIs from edible seaweeds.
