Characterization of a plasma-derived protein fraction from Magallana gigas and its modulatory effects on lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory responses in HT-29 cells.
A plasma-derived protein fraction (MG-1) was partially purified from the hemolymph of the Pacific oyster, Magallana gigas, and its potential modulatory effects on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses were evaluated in HT-29 intestinal epithelial cells. SDS-PAGE analysis revealed two major protein ban...
