  • SF, or Maesaengi, is a green alga known for its unique taste and high chlorophyll content, offering antioxidant and health benefits.
  • In a study involving mice with atopic dermatitis (AD), SF treatment significantly reduced AD symptoms, inflammation, and proinflammatory cytokine levels.
  • SF also inhibited inflammatory responses in human skin cells (HaCaT keratinocytes) by suppressing cytokine production and altering key signaling pathways, indicating its potential as a therapeutic option for AD.

Chicoric acid (dicaffeoyl-tartaric acid), is a natural phenolic compound found in a number of plants, such as chicory (Cichorium intybus) and Echinacea (Echinacea purpurea), which possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, and analgesic activities. Although these biological effects of chicoric acid have been investigated, there are no reports of its antiallergic-related anti-inflammatory effects in human mast cells (HMC)-1 or anaphylactic activity in a mouse model. Therefore, we investigated the antiallergic-related anti-inflammatory effect of chicoric acid and its underlying mechanisms of action using phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate plus calcium ionophore A23187 (PMACI)-stimulated HMC-1 cells.
