Dipteran Carboxymethyl Chitosan as an Inexhaustible Derivative with a Potential Antiproliferative Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells

Abstract: Traditional folk therapies indicate that insects have diverse medicinal potentials. However, the therapeutic application of insect chitosan and its derivatives has not been explored. To investigate the application of chitosan and its derivatives, the carboxymethyl derivative of chitosan (CM-Ch) was extracted from two dipteran larvae species, Chrysomya albiceps and Sarcophaga aegyptiaca. The degree of deacetylation (DD) and CM-Ch functional groups were validated using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrosc… Show more

“…Eupolyphaga sinensis (Walker) (Blattodea: Corydiidae) is another well-known traditional Chinese anti-tumor medicine, from which the extracted polysaccharide [ 74 ] and a protein named EPS72 [ 125 ] have been determined as the active ingredients. Recently, chitosan derivations from scarab beetles (Scarabaeidae) [ 155 ] and blowflies (Calliphoridae) [ 156 ] were determined to be the effective ingredients as well.…”
