Structure versus anticoagulant and antithrombotic actions of marine sulfated polysaccharides
Marine sulfated polysaccharides (MSP), such as sulfated fucans (SF), sulfated galactans (SG) and glycosaminoglycans (GAG) isolated from either algae or invertebrate animals, are highly anionic polysaccharides capable of interacting with certain cationic proteins, such as (co)-factors of the coagulation cascade during clotting-inhibition processes. These molecular complexes between MSP and coagu...
متن کاملAnticoagulant and antithrombotic activity of maltodapoh, a novel sulfated tetrasaccharide.
Orally bioavailable anticoagulants are needed that exhibit rapid and predictable onset and offset kinetics. This study was designed to determine whether maltodapoh, a novel sulfated bis-maltobionic acid amide, exhibits anticoagulant and antithrombotic activity in vivo after oral administration. Maltodapoh exhibited a dose-dependent increase in activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) in bot...
متن کاملO-sulfated bacterial polysaccharides with low anticoagulant activity inhibit metastasis.
Heparin-like polysaccharides possess the capacity to inhibit cancer cell proliferation, angiogenesis, heparanase-mediated cancer cell invasion, and cancer cell adhesion to vascular endothelia via adhesion receptors, such as selectins. The clinical applicability of the antitumor effect of such polysaccharides, however, is compromised by their anticoagulant activity. We have compared the potentia...
متن کاملAntithrombin-mediated anticoagulant activity of sulfated polysaccharides: different mechanisms for heparin and sulfated galactans.
We investigated the mechanisms of anticoagulant activity mediated by sulfated galactans. The anticoagulant activity of sulfated polysaccharides is achieved mainly through potentiation of plasma cofactors, which are the natural inhibitors of coagulation proteases. Our results indicated the following. 1) Structural requirements for the interaction of sulfated galactans with coagulation inhibitors...
متن کاملChemical Structures and Bioactivities of Sulfated Polysaccharides from Marine Algae
Sulfated polysaccharides and their lower molecular weight oligosaccharide derivatives from marine macroalgae have been shown to possess a variety of biological activities. The present paper will review the recent progress in research on the structural chemistry and the bioactivities of these marine algal biomaterials. In particular, it will provide an update on the structural chemistry of the m...
