Single and repeated oral dose toxicity study of fucoxanthin (FX), a marine carotenoid, in mice

Abstract: -Fucoxanthin (FX), a xanthophyll derivative, is an orange-colored pigment present in edible brown algae. As a part of safety evaluation, single and repeated oral dose toxicity study of FX was ICR mice at doses of 1,000 and 2,000 mg/kg. In a repeated doses study, FX at doses of 500 and 1,000 appearance were observed. In the repeated doses study, histological observation revealed no abnormal -ly increased total cholesterol concentrations were shown by plasma biochemical analyses in all FX-treated groups.

“…The total protein, albumin, globulin, glucose, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate amino transferase (AST), P, Ca, and Mg were measured by Eone Laboratories (Incheon, Korea). For histopathology, the organs of 405 mg/kg Mg and 405 mg/kg Ca groups were fixed in 10 % neutrally buffered formalin and embedded in paraffin after 18 h. Slices of 3~4 µm thickness were prepared, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) (Beppu et al 2009). …”

“…Secara in vivo, fukosantin yang diberikan secara oral selama 28 hari juga tidak menunjukkan gejala toksik pada tikus (Kadekaru, Toyama & Yasumoto, 2008). Pemberian fukosantin secara oral pada dosis 500 dan 1000 mg/kg bb tidak menyebabkan toksisitas dan abnormalitas ginjal dan hati pada mencit (Beppu, Niwano, Tsukui, Hosokawa, & Miyashita, 2009). Dengan sifat antikankernya yang cukup baik dan rendahnya toksisitas fukosantin terhadap sel normal, serta melimpahnya bahan baku P.australis di Indonesia, maka fukosantin memiliki prospek yang baik untuk dikembangkan sebagai agen terapi antikanker khususnya kanker payudara.…”
