“…Marine natural products are characterized by the diversity of their chemical structures, displaying a wide spectrum of biological activities. The Red Sea is one of the most important marine hotspots comprising high seaweed biodiversity [1]. Several marine algae, particularly seaweeds, are biogeographically native to the Red Sea, but only a few species have been chemically examined during the past decades.…”

Although a broad variety of classes of bioactive compounds have already been isolated from seaweeds of the genus Dictyota, most different species are still chemically and biologically unexplored. Dictyota species are well-known brown seaweeds belonging to the Dictyotaceae (Phaeophyta). The phytochemical composition within the genus Dictyota has recently received considerable interest, and a vast array of components, including diterpenes, sesquiterepenes, sterols, amino acids, as well as saturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, have been characterized. The contribution of these valued metabolites to the biological potential, which includes anti-proliferative, anti-microbial, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-hyperpigmentation activities, of the genus Dictyota has also been explored. Therefore, this is the most comprehensive review, focusing on the published literature relevant to the chemically and pharmacologically diverse biopharmaceuticals isolated from different species of the genus Dictyota during the period from 1976 to now.

“…In addition, other nutritional content of Caulerpa lentillifera can have potential abilities such as reducing antioxidative stress (Balasubramaniam et al, 2020), anti-diabetic agents (Nofiani et al, 2018;Sharma & Rhyu, 2014), immunological activity (Zhang et al, 2020), and also the content of sulphated polysaccharide CLGP4 from C. lentillifera can function as an anti-inflammatory (Sun et al, 2020). A recent full review reported that sea grape of the genus Caulerpa has promising benefits such as antiviral, antimicrobial, cytotoxic, hypolipidemic, anti-obesity, cardiac protective hepatoprotective, and antiproliferative agents (Rushdi et al, 2020).…”

The study aimed to investigate the dietary supplementation effect of sea grape, Caulerpa lentillifera, on the growth performance and survival rate of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskål, 1775). Two hundred fish weighing in the range of 0.20-0.25 g/ind were randomly distributed into 20 of 25 L tanks. The 0 (control), 10, 20, 30, and 40 g/kg of Caulerpa lentillifera powder was supplemented into four formulated feeds and then fed for 49 days. The result exposed that the administration of Caulerpa lentillifera powder in the diet provided a significant effect on the absolute weight gain, absolute length gain, specific growth rate, and feed efficiency (P<0,05), but there was no significant effect on survival rate (P>0,05). The optimum specific growth rate, absolute weight, absolute length and feed efficiency were found at treatment C (20 g/kg diet) with the values of 1.597±0.137 %/days, 4.47±0.08 g, 2.98±0.77 cm and 69.86±2.72 %, respectively. Regarding this result, the supplementation of sea grape (Caulerpa lentillifera) at a 20 g/kg diet is recommended to obtain the optimum growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos).Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh suplementasi pakan anggur laut Caulerpa lentillifera terhadap performa pertumbuhan dan kelangsungan hidup ikan bandeng, Chanos chanos (Forsskål, 1775). Dua ratus ikan sampel berbobot berkisar 0.20-0.25 g/ind didistribusikan secara acak ke dalam 20 tangki dengan volume masing-masing 25 L. Tepung anggur laut dengan dosis 0 (kontrol), 10, 20, 30, dan 40 g/kg ditambahkan ke dalam lima formulasi pakan dan diberi makan sebanyak 5% dari biomassa ikan dengan frekuensi 2 kali sehari selama 49 hari. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian tepung C. lentillifera dalam ransum memberikan pengaruh nyata terhadap laju pertumbuhan spesifik, bobot mutlak, panjang mutlak dan efisiensi pakan (P<0.05), tetapi tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap kelangsungan hidup (P>0.05). Laju pertumbuhan spesifik, bobot mutlak, panjang mutlak dan efisiensi pakan yang optimum terdapat pada perlakuan C (diet 20 g/kg) dengan nilai 1.597±0.137 %/hari, 4.47±0.08 g, 2.98± 0.77 cm dan 69.86±2.72%. Berkaitan dengan hasil tersebut, disarankan penambahan suplemen anggur laut (C. lentillifera) pada pakan 20 g/kg memberikan pertumbuhan yang optimum bagi ikan bandeng (Chanos chanos).

“…The level of protein and carbohydrates in this plant also confers great nutritional and health benefit (Matanjun et al, 2009). Extracts of C. lentillifera displayed the antidiabetic effect by reducing blood glucose level and stimulating insulin secretion in diabetic mice (Rushdi et al., 2020). Different concentrations of C. lentillifera inhibited the activity of DPP‐4 in vitro where Gly‐Pro‐7‐amido‐4‐methylcoumarin hydrobromide (Gly‐Pro‐AMC) was used as substrate.…”

Functional foods with dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitory potential and management of type 2 diabetes: A review

The global high prevalence of diabetes mellitus has resulted into the development of several oral hypoglycemic agents. However, these drugs have limited efficacy and harmful side effects, which call for the search for alternatives from natural sources. The inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 (DPP‐4) activity increases the level of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, which in turn reduces hyperglycemia by activating insulin secretion and inhibiting glucagon secretion. Some studies have reported the in vitro DPP‐4 inhibitory potential of functional foods, but there is no repository of information on these reports. This article is an attempt to present in concise form, reports of functional foods with DPP‐4 inhibitory potentials in vitro. This will guide the use of these foods as well as in antidiabetic drug development.
