The uptake and fixation of S35-labelled sulphate in the rockweed Fucus vesiculosus has been examined using direct chromatography of ground tissue as well as conventional techniques. The uptake of sulphate, unlike that of carbonate, is complex and not directly related to internal requirement. Both the uptake and fixation of sulphate are increased by light. Sulphate appears to penetrate into the thallus with difficulty: cut tissue took up sulphate much faster than undamaged tissue, the rate of uptake being roughly proportional to the area of cut surface, not to the area of intact surface. Frozen and ground tissue retained its ability to convert sulphate into organic forms for a short time. An active exchange of the sulphate portion of the sulphated polysaccharide, fucoidin, was detected. The incorporation of S35into fucoidin was 20 to 600 times greater than that of C14, depending on the duration of the experiments.

This work evaluated the effect of a sulphated fucan extracted from the Laminaria abyssalis marine algae on the human T cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-induced syncytium formation. The experiments were carried out in HeLa cells cocultured with a HTLV-1-infected T cell line (C91/PL cells) in the presence of the sulphated polysaccharide at concentration below that corresponding to the ED50. The sulphated fucan inhibited almost 100% of the syncytium formation at concentration of 100 μg/ml and was still active (>95%) at a concentration of 25 μg/ml. It was also observed that the best inhibition occurred when the compound was added in the first 2 h of the cell-to-cell contact. This is the first report showing that a purified sulphated polysaccharide, extracted from marine algae, is able to inhibit the cell-to-cell contact essential for the spreading of the HTLV-1.
