AbstractThis study was conducted to examine the physiological activity of Ulva ohnoi, some of which may be used for food or natural products but could disturbing coastal ecosystems due to large scale green-tide, to check values of U. ohnoi oil through experimental results. U. ohnoi oil was extracted from bulk of Ulva biomass to confirm its antioxidant and antibacterial activity, and the efficacy of U. ohnoi oil in the state of inflammation was confirmed through animal experiments. To confirm the anti-inflammatory effect, a mouse model induced with DSS was used. As a result of measuring NO using plasma after induction of inflammation, the amount of NO produced in the U. ohnoi oil group was decreased compared to the control group. Expression of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β was decreased compared to the control group. As a result of observing H&E staining, lower crypt loss and inflammatory cell infiltration were found in the U. ohnoi oil group compared to the control group. Consequently, U. ohnoi oil appears to have great anti-inflammatory properties.

Early (preclinical) diagnosis of Parkinsons disease (PD) is a major challenge in modern neuroscience. The objective of this study was to experimentally evaluate a diagnostic challenge test with monoiodotyrosine (MIT), an endogenous inhibitor of tyrosine hydroxylase. Striatal dopamine was shown to decrease by 34% 2 h after subcutaneous injection of 100 mg/kg MIT to intact mice, with the effect not being amplified by a further increase in the MIT dose. The selected MIT dose caused motor impairment in a neurotoxic mouse model of preclinical PD, but not in the controls. This was because MIT reduced striatal dopamine to the threshold of motor symptoms manifestation only in PD mice. Therefore, using the experimental mouse model of preclinical PD, we have shown that a MIT challenge test may be used to detect latent nigrostriatal dysfunction.
