In this paper, in vitro anti-influenza virus activities of sulfated polysaccharide fractions from Gracilaria lemaneiformis were investigated. Cytotoxicities and antiviral activities of Gracilaria lemaneiformis polysaccharides (PGL), Gracilaria lemaneiformis polysaccharide fraction-1 (GL-1), Gracilaria lemaneiformis polysaccharide fraction-2 (GL-2) and Gracilaria lemaneiformis polysaccharide fraction-3 (GL-3) were studied by the Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method, and the inhibitory effect against Human influenza virus H1-364 induced cytopathic effect (CPE) on MDCK cells were observed by the CPE method. In addition, the antiviral mechanism of PGL was explored by Plaque forming unit (PFU), MTT and CPE methods. The results showed: i) Cytotoxicities were not significantly revealed, and H1-364 induced CPE was also reduced treated with sulfated polysaccharide fractions from Gracilaria lemaneiformis; ii) Antiviral activities were associated with the mass percentage content of sulfate groups in polysaccharide fractions, which was about 13%, in polysaccharides (PGL and GL-2) both of which exhibited higher antiviral activity; iii) A potential antiviral mechanism to explain these observations is that viral adsorption and replication on host cells were inhibited by sulfated polysaccharides from Gracilaria lemaneiformis. In conclusion, Anti-influenza virus activities of sulfated polysaccharide fractions from Gracilaria lemaneiformis were revealed, and the antiviral activities were associated with content of sulfate groups in polysaccharide fractions.

Sixty Duroc × (Landrace × Yorkshire) castrated male finishing pigs were randomly divided into negative control (NC) and polysaccharides (GLP) groups to study the effects of GLP on the fecal microbiota and fecal metabolites of fattening pigs. The NC group was fed a basic diet, and the GLP group was fed a basic diet supplemented with 0.1% GLP.

Fucoidan is a natural sulfated polysaccharide with immunoregulatory function. In this work, the anti-allergic impacts of Gracilaria lemaneiformis fucoidan (GLF) in mitigating allergic reactions induced by shrimp tropomyosin were investigated. As the results, GLF performed significant hyaluronidase inhibition ability (IC = 0.

This study evaluated the synergistic effects of dietary butyrate-producing bacteria (Clostridium senegalense I5 (I5) and Paraclostridium benzoelyticum G5 (G5) and Gracilaria lemaneiformis-derived polysaccharide (GLP) in rabbitfish (Siganus canaliculatus). Both bacterial strains demonstrated high susceptibility to most antibiotics, salt tolerance up to 6.5 %, pH tolerance ranging from 2 to 10, and strong auto-aggregation abilities.

Seaweed Gracilaria lemaneiformis, a significant oceanic primary producer, releases substantial dissolved organic matter (DOM) during growth and decay, potentially impacting coastal organic carbon reservoirs and microbial communities. This study aimed to investigate the bioavailability of Gracilaria-derived DOM and its interactions with microbial communities. Laboratory experiments introduced Gracilaria-derived DOM into natural seawater, tracking variations in DOM composition, microbial structure, and eight extracellular enzyme activities over 168 h.
