Structure and Metabolically Oriented Efficacy of Fucoidan from Brown Alga Sargassum muticum in the Model of Colony Formation of Melanoma and Breast Cancer Cells.

ABSTRACT: This work reports the detailed structure of fucoidan from Sargassum miticum (2SmF2) and its ability to potentiate the inhibitory effect of glycolysis inhibitor 2-deoxy-d-glucose (2-DG). 2SmF2 was shown to be sulfated and acetylated galactofucan containing a main chain of alternating residues of 1,3- and 1,4-linked α-l-fucopyranose, fucose fragments with monotonous 1,3- and 1,4-type linkages (DP up to 3), α-d-Gal-(1→3)-α-L-Fuc disaccharides, and 1,3,4- and 1,2,4-linked fucose branching points. The sulfate groups were found at positions 2 and 4 of fucose and galactose residues. 2SmF2 (up to 800 µg/mL) and 2-DG (up to 8 mM) were not cytotoxic against MDA-MB-231 and SK-MEL-28 as determined by MTS assay. In the soft agar-based model of cancer cell colony formation, fucoidan exhibited weak inhibitory activity at the concentration of 400 µg/mL. However, in combination with low non-cytotoxic concentrations of 2-DG (0.5 or 2 mM), 2SmF2 could effectively inhibit the colony formation of SK-MEL-28 and MDA-MB-231 cells and decreased the number of colonies by more than 50% compared to control at the concentration of 200 µg/mL. Our findings reveal the metabolically oriented effect of fucoidan in combination with a glycolysis inhibitor that may be beneficial for a therapy for aggressive cancers.

Project description:Seaweed-associated microbiota experience spatial and temporal shifts in response to changing environmental conditions and seaweed physiology. These shifts may result in structural, functional and behavioral changes in the host with potential consequences for its fitness. They, thus, may help the host to adapt to changing environmental conditions. The current knowledge of seasonal variation of seaweed-associated microbiota is however still limited. In this study, we explored temporal and spatial variation of microbial communities associated with the invasive brown seaweed S. muticum. We sampled in northern and southern Portugal, in September, March and July-August (summer). In addition, as (pseudo-)perennial seaweeds display seasonal reproductive phenology, we sampled various parts of the individuals to disentangle the effect of temporal changes from those due to structural development variations. The diversity and structure of associated microbial communities were determined using next generation sequencing of the variable regions V5-7 of the 16S rDNA. We expected to find differentiation in associated microbial communities between regions and sampling months, but with differences depending on the seaweed structure examined. As expected, the study revealed substantial temporal shifts in S. muticum microbiome, for instance with large abundance of Rhodobacteraceae and Loktanella in September-March but prevalence of Pirellulales during the summer months. Variations between regions and tissues were also observed: in northern Portugal and on basal structures, bacterial diversity was higher as compared to the South and apical parts. All examined seaweed structures showed temporal differences in associated microbial community structure over time, except for holdfasts between September and March. Bacteria contributing to these changes varied spatially. Conversely to all other structures, the holdfast also did not show differences in associated community structure between southern and northern regions. Our study highlights the importance of structural microscale differentiations within seaweeds hosts with regard to their associated microbial communities and their importance across temporal and spatial dimensions.

Project description:Invasive species can alter coastal ecosystems both directly, e.g. through competition for substratum and nutrients, and indirectly. Indirect effects may be mediated by creation of dissimilar or inimical habitats, changes in predator and/or prey assemblages, alterations in associated biota, and perturbations of water movement and thermal regimes. Previous studies have shown that invasive algae can modify native habitat architecture, disrupt intricately linked food webs and alter epibiotic assemblages. In the UK, the seagrass Zostera marina supports a diverse epibiotic assemblage, influencing key factors such as sediment dynamics, depositional regime and trophic linkages. Increasing encroachment of the invasive alga Sargassum muticum into seagrass meadows changes the physical and chemical characteristics of the local environment and creates the potential for changes in the epibionts associated with the seagrass blades, threatening the integrity of the seagrass ecosystem. We investigated the effects of S. muticum invasion upon the epibiota of Z. marina in a drowned river valley in SW England seasonally from spring to autumn over four years in an in-situ manipulative experiment, comparing permanent quadrats with and without artificially introduced S. muticum. Epibiota were weighed, identified to the most detailed operational taxonomic unit (OTU) possible, and unitary organisms were enumerated. Multivariate PERMANOVA+ analysis revealed significant differences in epibiont assemblages between Sargassum treatments. Linear mixed effects models indicated that differences in epibiota assemblage composition were not reflected as significant differences in mean biomass per sample, or number of epibiont OTUs per sample. We conclude that S. muticum invasion into Z. marina meadows may significantly alter the species composition and abundance distribution of epibiotic assemblages found on the blades of the seagrass. Thus S. muticum invasion could have more wide-reaching effects on processes within coastal ecosystems than predicted purely by direct effects.
