  1. Fucoidan from Fucus versiculosus can inhibit human norovirus replication by enhancing the host innate immune response

    • Journal of Functional Foods
    • Fucoidan extracted from Fucus versiculosus was able to inhibit the replication of human noroviruses (hNoV) GII.4[P16] in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae. In the hNoV infected zebrafish larvae, a transcriptomic analysis showed significant upregulation (p < 0.01) of the interferons (IFNs) signaling related genes as well as a series of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) encoding antiviral effectors compared to the mock-infected controls.
