Alaskan seaweeds lower inflammation in RAW 264.7 macrophages and decrease lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes

JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL FOODS, 15, 396–407.

By: J. Kellogg n, D. Esposito n, M. Grace n, S. Komarnytsky n & M. Lila n

Contributors: J. Kellogg n, D. Esposito n, M. Grace n, S. Komarnytsky n & M. Lila n

author keywords: Seaweed; Phlorotannin; Monoglycosyldiacylglycerol; Inflammation; Insulin resistance; Fucus distichus
TL;DR: Overall, the Alaskan seaweed F. distichus inhibited proinflammatory responses and improved lipid metabolism, suggesting the potential for seaweed phytochemicals to attenuate inflammatory diseases. (via Semantic Scholar)

Phlorotannins from Alaskan Seaweed Inhibit Carbolytic Enzyme Activity

MARINE DRUGS, 12(10), 5277–5294.

By: J. Kellogg n, M. Grace n & M. Lila n

Contributors: J. Kellogg n, M. Grace n & M. Lila n

author keywords: Alaska; seaweed; diabetes; glucosidase; hyperglycemia; amylase; type 2 diabetes mellitus; phlorotannin; polyphenol; ethnopharmacology
MeSH headings : Animals; Biological Factors / metabolism; Biological Factors / pharmacology; Carbohydrates; Enzyme Inhibitors / metabolism; Enzyme Inhibitors / pharmacology; Fucus / metabolism; Kinetics; Saccharomyces cerevisiae / metabolism; Seaweed / metabolism; Swine / metabolism; Tannins / metabolism; Tannins / pharmacology; alpha-Amylases / antagonists & inhibitors; alpha-Glucosidases / metabolism
TL;DR: It is suggested that coastal Alaskan seaweeds are sources of α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibitory phlorotannins, and thus have potential to limit the release of sugar from carbohydrates and thus alleviate postprandial hyperglycemia. (via Semantic Scholar)
