]]> The 探花精选 Graduate School Center for Conservation of Cultural Property and Environment in the Tropics (USTGS-CCCPET) together with UST College of Science Department of Biological Sciences presented the proposed program on the assessment, inventory, and biological field surveys of flora and fauna in the selected sites of Samar Island Natural Park (SINP) during the meeting of Samar Island Natural Park 鈥 Protected Area Management Board (SINP-PAMB) Committee on聽Biodiversity Conservation and Monitoring on August 10, 2021.

The objectives of the fieldwork are to document and update the species diversity of flora and fauna of SINP; to establish science-based data that will support the application of SINP as a UNESCO World Heritage Natural Site and to recommend a policy on the conservation and protection of SINP ecosystems and its biodiversity resources.

Dr. Mae Lowe Diesmos presented the field work requirements for the Fauna team while Dr. Cecilia Moran presented for the Flora team. The UST team will field 28 scientists from the Biological Sciences with expertise in flora and fauna together with research and field assistants from the UST College of Science and University of the Philippines Los Ba帽os. Team Leaders are Dr. Cecilia B. Moran, Dr. Mae Lowe L. Diesmos, Dr. Grecebio Jonathan D. Alejandro, and Mr. Jorge Anton Ordas.

The proposed project is a vital component of the continued assistance of USTGS-CCCPET in preparing the nomination dossier for the Park鈥檚 bid to become a UNESCO World Heritage Sites. This UST project is in collaboration with the Office of Congresswoman Sharee Ann Tan, Office of Congressman Feliciano Noel of Ang Waray Party List, Department of Tourism Region 8, Department of Environment and Natural Resources Region 8, Office of the Governor-Samar, Office of the Governor- Northern Samar, and Office of the Governor-Easter Samar.

The post Thomasian researchers bare potential anti-cancer properties found in local seaweed appeared first on 探花精选.

]]> A 探花精选 research group, headed by National Research Council of the Philippines 鈥 Pharmaceutical Science Project member and UST Administrator , found that polysaccharides extracted from the Codium species are 鈥渆ffective against cancer cells and destructive enzymes associated with cancer metastasis,鈥 said a press statement released by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) on February 21, 2019.

Codium species, specifically the seasonally available seaweed known as pukpuklo, can be found in selected waters in Ilocos Norte, Cagayan Province, Iloilo, and Aklan. It is often harvested for food. In Ilocos, it is made into a seaweed salad dish with the same name.

Anti-Cancer Properties
According to the DOST press release, the study 鈥渆valuated the inhibitory potential of the polysaccharides fractions isolated from Codium species鈥 and found that the polysaccharides 鈥渇ight destructive enzymes that aid metastasis or spread of cancer to different parts of the body.鈥 Polysaccharides are carbohydrates whose molecules consist of a number of sugar molecules bonded together, such as starch, glycogen, or cellulose.

Though there has been much research on other similar Codium species, this seems to be the pioneering study for pukpuklo, said Vasquez during a publicly-available online video interview with Agila Balita. He explained that two years had been devoted to conducting the research. The first year was for characterization and extraction of the polysaccharides, while the second year was dedicated to biological activities, such as testing its properties on cancer cells, rats, and normal cells within the lab.

In the same interview, Vasquez said that while obtaining the pukpuklo, he learned from the local fishermen that this seaweed cannot be grown elsewhere because it needs very specific conditions under which it can grow. He found that the pukpuklo needs certain variables, such as temperature, pH level, oxygen concentration, and other features of the marine waters, to be jointly conducive for growth.

While the pukpuklo can be eaten raw, the anti-cancer properties of pukpuklo do not extend to raw consumption, said Vasquez. The polysaccharides make up a very small percentage of the 鈥榯hallus鈥, or body, of the plant and has to be extracted first by using a treatment. A challenge the researchers face is increasing the yield of extracts from the seaweed.

In one kilogram of pukpuklo, only around four to eight grams of the sulfated polysaccharides, which can inhibit the growth of lung cancer cells and breast cancer cells, can be extracted. However, before extracts from the pukpuklo are ready for commercialization, Vasquez says that there remains a need for follow-up research on the specific structure and mechanism of action of the anti-cancer properties of the polysaccharides.

Fruits of Thomasian Research
The study, titled 鈥淢edical potential of polysaccharide fractions from Codium species as cytotoxic and matrix metalloproteinase=1 (MMP-1) inhibitory agent,鈥 was first publicly presented by Vasquez at the Department of Science and Technology-National Research Council of the Philippines (DOST-NRCP) Second Basic Research Symposium held in October 2018 at the Hotel Jen, Pasay City. With the theme 鈥淐ommunicating Basic Research Results to the People: The Value of Philippine Flora and Fauna,鈥 the symposium had six presentations of completed projects.
Also part of the research group were UST Faculty of Pharmacy faculty member Prof. Jovencio G. Apostol, Ph.D., and Regina Belen Callanta, a biological sciences student at the UST Graduate School. NRCP provided a grant of 1.3 million Philippine pesos for the completion of the research project.

In the same symposium, 鈥淭he Phylogeny of Argostemma species (Rubiaceae)鈥 was presented by UST Director He examined the genetic makeup of the Philippine endemic coffee shrubs.
