Fibrinolytic Compounds Isolated from a Brown Alga, Sargassum fulvellum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two of bioactive natural products were founded in a brown alga, Sargassum fulvellum. After isolation and purification, the molecular structures of these two products were investigated by NMR spectroscopy and GC-mass spectroscopy. The two compounds were identified to be 1-O-palmitoyl-2-O-oleoyl-3-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-glycerol (POGG) and 1-O-myristoyl-2-O-oleoyl-3-O-(alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-glycerol (MOGG) which were obtained from Sargassum fulvellum for the first time. POGG and MOGG showed fibrinolytic activity in the reaction system of pro-u-PA and plasminogen.

A novel fucan sulfate (Hor-1) was isolated from the hot water extract of an edible brown alga, Sargassum horneri (Turner) C. Agardh. The fucan sulfate was revealed to have sugar linkage types, sulfate content and uronic acid content different from those of sodium hornan (Na-HOR), another fucan sulfate isolated from this alga. However, it exhibited inhibitory activity against replication of herp...

cales) are known to contain structurally unique secondary metabolites, such as plastoquinones, chromanols, a cyclopentenone, and polysaccharides. These compounds show various biological activities due to their unique structure. We previously reported that the methanolic extract of the brown alga, Sargassum micracanthum (KUETZING) ENDLICHER, “Togemoku” in Japanese, showed strong antioxidant acti...
