Sulfated polysaccharides of some seaweeds exhibit neuroprotection via mitigation of oxidative stress, cholinergic dysfunction and inhibition of Zn - induced neuronal damage in HT-22 cells.

PKPM, PGCL, PURL, PULV and PMNP exhibit neuroprotective effects against neuronal damage induced by Zn and this may be attributed to inhibition of apoptosis, oxidative damage and acetylcholinesterase activity. These polysaccharides may be good therapeutic agents to protect neuronal cells against Zn - induced pathological processes associated with Alzheimer's disease.
