Protective Role of Alginic Acid and Fucoidan from Nitric Oxide-Induced Oxidative Stress

چکیده
The protective activities of alginic acid and fucoidan from oxidative stress (OS) were investigated under cellular system using LLC-PK1 renal epithelial cells that are widely used for study cellular OS. The cellular OS in LLC-PK1 cells was induced by the free radical generators. The treatment of pyrogallol, sodium nitroprusside or 3-morpholinosydnonimine led to the production of superoxide anion (O2), nitric oxide (NO) and peroxynitrite (ONOO), respectively. The free radical generators decreased cell viability and elevated lipid peroxidation compared OSwith non-treated cells. However, the treatment of alginic acid and fucoidan attenuated OS significantly induced by NO, O2 and ONOO, resulting in the significant increase of cell viability and inhibition of lipid peroxidation in concentration-dependent manner. In particular, fucoidan showed the stronger protective effect from oxidative stress than alginic acid. These results indicated that alginic acid and fucoidan played the protective role from NO-induced OS. The present study suggests the promising antioxidative agents of alginc acid and fucoidan with protective activity from free radical-induced OS.

Background: Cyclosporine A (CsA) is an immunosuppressant with therapeutic indications in various immunological diseases; however, its use is associated with chronic nephropathy. Oxidative stress has a crucial role in CsA-induced nephrotoxicity. The present study evaluates the protective effect of edaravone on CsA-induced chronic nephropathy and investigates its antioxidant and nitric oxide modu...
متن کاملProtective effect of fucoidan against acetaminophen-induced liver injury.
Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from various brown seaweeds, possesses a wide range of pharmacological properties. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of fucoidan on acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury in rats. Liver injury was induced by administration of acetaminophen (800 mg/kg, i.p.) and fucoidan was administered (100 mg kg, p.o.) 2 h before and after ace...
