Assessment of the oxidative cellular toxicity of a κ-carrageenan oxidative degradation product towards Caco-2 cells
2010-12-01
Abstract excerpt
Carrageenan, especially degraded carrageenan (poligeenan) has been known to induce colonic inflammation for a long time. We isolated an oxidized degradation product (κ-CODP) from κ-poligeenan. To explore the toxic potential of this byproduct on human colonic epithelial cells, we examined the oxidative toxicity and pro-inflammatory effects on Caco-2 cells. κ-CODP showed cytotoxicity against Caco-2 cells with concen...
