The biotechnological value of macroalgae for screening assays of thrombin generation-TG using sulfated polysaccharides-SPs as substitutes to heparin has been poorly explored. Five Brazilian species of macroalgae (Gracilaria birdiae, Acanthophora muscoides, Halymenia sp., Caulerpa cupressoides and C. racemosa) were analyzed and compared for their abundance, physical-chemical characteristics and in vitro anticoagulant assays of activated partial thromboplastin time-APTT, prothrombin time-PT and TG. Papain extraction yielded (p < 0.001) from 0.66±0.03% (C. racemosa) to 41.60±1.10% (Halymenia sp.) of crude SPs varying sulfate (8.41-42.60%) and total sugars (47.80-70.53%). Crude SPs showed difference in mobility and resolution pattern by agarose... |

Acanthophora muscoides (Rhodophyta) has three polysulfated fractions (Am-1, Am-2 and Am-3). Am-2 displayed anti-inflammation and serpin-independent anticoagulation; however, no effect of oligomers on thrombin-generation (TG) assay has been demonstrated. This study employed mild-acid hydrolysis to obtain low-molecular-size derivatives from Am-2 and compared in vitro inhibitory effects between intact Am-2 and its hydrolysates on a TG assay. The enzymatic extract was fractionated by DEAE-cellulose that revealed Am-2 eluted with 0.75-M NaCl containing sulfate (23%), hexoses (51%) and devoid of proteins, and indicating, by one-dimension nuclear magnetic resonance, structure of galactan similar to that of extract. The depolymerization with HCl (0.02 or... |
