Spatial and seasonal variations in the biofunctional lipid substances (fucoxanthin and fucosterol) of the laboratory-grown edible Japanese seaweed (Sargassum horneri Turner) cultured in the open sea.

TL;DR: This study clearly indicates the role of temperature and light apart from nutritional profile and depth of waters where the seaweed was grown on the accumulation of functional lipid components in S. horneri.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sesamol suppresses cyclooxygenase-2 transcriptional activity in colon cancer cells and modifies intestinal polyp development in ApcMin/+ mice

TL;DR: The present findings may demonstrate the novel anti-carcinogenetic property of sesamol, and imply that agents that can suppress cyclooxygenase-2 expression may be useful cancer chemopreventive agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carotenoid Profile of Edible Japanese Seaweeds: An Improved HPLC Method for Separation of Major Carotenoids

TL;DR: Quantitative profiling of carotenoid compounds was carried out on three edible brown seaweeds and three red seaweeds, suggesting the usefulness of edible varieties (barring wakame) of seaweeds as dietary sources of carOTenoids.
