The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of Sargassum polysaccharide on oxidative stress induced by infectious bursa disease virus (IBDV) in chicken bursal lymphocytes. The levels of IL-1β, IL-8, IL-10, TNF-α, MCP-1, reduced glutathione and reactive oxygen species in chicken bursal lymphocytes treated with IBDV or both IBDV and Sargassum polysaccharide were measured, and the activities of superoxide dimutase and glutathione peroxidase were evaluated. Our results showed that oxidative stress appeared when chicken bursal lymphocytes were incubated with IBDV for 8h at 100 TCID(50). Sargassum polysaccharide inhibited oxidative stress by increasing the amount of reduced glutathione, promoting the activities of superoxide dimutase and glutathione peroxidase and reducing the level of reactive oxygen species. The polysaccharide also raised IL-1β, IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α levels in cells infected with IBDV. These findings suggest that Sargassum polysaccharide acts against infection by elevating antioxidant capacity and cytokine levels in chicken bursal lymphocytes.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition characterized by severe pruritus and recurrent flare-ups, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. Current treatments, such as corticosteroids and immunomodulators, often provide symptomatic relief but can lead to adverse effects with prolonged use. Seaweed, a sustainable and nutrient-dense resource, has emerged as a promising alternative due to its rich bioactive compounds-polysaccharides, phlorotannins, polyphenols, and chlorophyll-that offer anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties.

The study aimed to explore the protective impact of polysaccharide derived from (Turner) C. Agardh (SHP) against ethanol-induced injury in LO2 hepatocytes, along with its potential mechanism of action. A model of alcoholic injury in LO2 cells was established to assess the shielding effect of SHP against liver injury induced by alcohol.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasonic treatment on the physicochemical properties and bioactivities of polysaccharides from samples (SPs) extracted with different solvents. The alkali-assisted extraction of polysaccharide (SPA), acid-assisted extraction of polysaccharides from (SPB), and hot water extraction of polysaccharides (SPCs) were perofrmed on . Ultrasonic treatment was performed with the SPA, SPB, and SPC in turn, and named USPA, USPB, and UPSC, respectively.

Osteoporosis is a degenerative bone disease highly prevalent in older women, causing high morbidity and mortality rates. Fourteen kinds of fucoidan were isolated from Sargassum fusiforme through acid (named as SFS), alkaline (SFJ) and water (SFW). SFW was passed through an anion exchange column to obtain SFW-0, SFW-0.
