Fucoxanthin and Its Metabolite Fucoxanthinol in Cancer Prevention and Treatment
Fucoxanthin is a carotenoid present in the chloroplasts of brown seaweeds. When ingested, it is metabolized mainly to fucoxanthinol by digestive enzymes of the gastrointestinal tract. These compounds have been shown to have many beneficial health effects, including anti-mutagenic, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, anti-inflammatory and anti-neoplastic actions. In every cancer tested, modulatory acti...
متن کاملSimultaneous Determination of Fucoxanthin and Its Deacetylated Metabolite Fucoxanthinol in Rat Plasma by Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Fucoxanthin and its deacetylated metabolite fucoxanthinol are two major carotenoids that have been confirmed to possess various pharmacological properties. In the present study, fucoxanthinol was identified as the deacetylated metabolite of fucoxanthin, after intravenous (i.v.) and intragastric gavage (i.g.) administration to rats at doses of 2 and 65 mg/kg, respectively, by liquid chromatograp...
متن کاملFucoxanthinol, Metabolite of Fucoxanthin, Improves Obesity-Induced Inflammation in Adipocyte Cells
Fucoxanthin (Fx) is a marine carotenoid found in edible brown seaweeds. We previously reported that dietary Fx metabolite into fucoxanthinol (FxOH), attenuates the weight gain of white adipose tissue of diabetic/obese KK-Ay mice. In this study, to evaluate anti-diabetic effects of Fx, we investigated improving the effect of insulin resistance on the diabetic model of KK-Ay mice. Furthermore, pr...

در بدن یک انسان بیش از ۳۰ میلیارد سلول به گونه ای در کنار یکدیگر جای گرفته اند که عملکرد بهینه کل مجموعه به بهترین شیوه تضمین گردد. تقسیم سلولهای طبیعی و تولید سلولهای جدید، تنها در شرایطی صورت می گیرد که از یک سو جایگزینی سلولهای جدید به دلایلی نظیر مرگ سلولهای پیر و یا آسیب سلولهای قدیمی ضرورت داشته باشد و از سوی دیگر دستور آغاز تقسیم توسط سلولهای مجاور به یک سلول ابلاغ گردد. یک سلول سرطانی ا...
