Outline of Final Research Achievements

To search for the inhibitory activity of angiogenesis on the specific components derived from seaweeds, we treated chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM), in which the network of live vascular vessels can be observed, with acidic polysaccharides fraction or fat-soluble compound fraction extracted from six species of seaweeds.
The result revealed that inhibitory activity of angiogenesis exists in both fractions of acidic polysaccharides and fat-soluble compound, although each efficacy is different according to the species. Additionally, it was revealed that the migration in the microvascular endothelial cells was suppressed by the treatment with the fraction of acidic polysaccharides. Moreover, the effect of acidic polysaccharides fraction on bone metastasis was studied by using an indirect method in vitro. The result suggested a potentiality that acidic polysaccharides fraction derived from seaweeds exerts a suppressive effect on bone metastasis.
