Shinorine is a mycosporine-like amino acid isolated from laver (Porphyra dentata), and interest in its functionality has increased recently due to increased production using yeast. There have been few reports on the pharmacological activity of shinorine, and we sought to find the pharmacological significance of shinorine. In the present study, we investigated the pharmacological effects of shinorine purified from Porphyra dentata on ARPE-19 cells. First, when ARPE-19 cells were treated with bis-retinoid N-retinyl-N-retinylidene ethanolamine (A2E) and blue light (BL), cytotoxicity increased, and apoptosis was observed. We investigated the effects of shinorine on A2E- and BL-induced cytotoxicity and changes in apoptotic factors, inflammation, and carbonyl stress. A2E and BL exposure increased ARPE-19 cell apoptosis, but this increase was attenuated by shinorine in a concentration-dependent manner. Treatment with A2E and BL induced ARPE-19 cell apoptosis, but treatment with shinorine decreased the apoptotic factors, such as MAPKs. Shinorine reduced p-JNK and p-P38, which were increased by A2E and BL. In addition, shinorine was found to regulate inflammatory proteins and proteins associated with carbonyl stress. In conclusion, shinorine may suppress cell damage caused by A2E treatment and BL exposure at the cellular level by regulating various cell death and inflammatory response pathways. Full article

Abstract
This study analyzed 192 samples of Porphyra dentata (P-dent) and 201 samples of Porphyra yezoensis (P-yezo) from Jeonnam in Korea. Principal component analysis (PCA) and correlation analysis were conducted to establish a nutritional component dataset for laver. The analysis revealed that P-dent had [...] Read more.
This study analyzed 192 samples of Porphyra dentata (P-dent) and 201 samples of Porphyra yezoensis (P-yezo) from Jeonnam in Korea. Principal component analysis (PCA) and correlation analysis were conducted to establish a nutritional component dataset for laver. The analysis revealed that P-dent had higher moisture and weight but lower protein content than P-yezo. Ca, Mg, and Fe levels were higher in P-dent, while P, Na, and Zn levels were higher in P-yezo. Fatty acids composition analysis indicated that P-dent contained higher levels of linoleic acid, while P-yezo exhibited higher levels of oleic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). P-yezo had significantly higher levels of chlorophyll and carotenoids compared to P-dent. Conversely, P-dent exhibited higher L* and b* color values, resulting in a brighter, more yellowish appearance. Sensory analysis indicated that P-yezo was more intense in saltiness and umami, whereas P-dent had higher sourness and sweetness. The principal component analysis (PCA) results showed a clear distinction between P-dent and P-yezo, and 184 correlations among factors (nutrients, characteristics, etc.) were identified. These results contribute to a new database for evaluating the quality of Jeonnam laver. Full article

The influence of harvest time on the photosynthetic protein quality of the red alga Porphyra dentata was determined using label-free proteomics. Of 2716 differentially abundant proteins that were identified in this study, 478 were upregulated and 374 were downregulated. The top enriched Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and gene ontology (GO) pathways were metabolic processes and biosynthetic pathways such as photosynthesis, light harvesting, and carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms. Nine important photosynthetic proteins were screened. Correlations among their expression levels were contrasted and verified by western blotting. PSII D1 and 44-kDa protein levels increased with later harvest time and increased light exposure. Specific photoprotective protein expression accelerated P. dentata growth and development. Biological processes such as photosynthesis and carbon cycling increased carbohydrate metabolism and decreased the total protein content. The results of the present study provide a scientific basis for the optimization of the culture and harvest of P. dentata. Full article

Seaweeds have been verified to effectively reduce the nutrients of aquaculture wastewater, and to increase the economic output when commercially valuable species are utilized. Pyropia/Porphyra/Neopyropia/Neoporphyra species are important seafood resources globally, and their growth and bioremediation capacities are affected by diverse biotic and abiotic stressors. In this study, we investigated the effects of desiccation (0, 1, 2, 4, and 6 h of air exposure), water velocity (0.1, 0.2, and 0.5 m s−1), and the nitrogen limitation period (1, 2, and 3 d) on the relative growth rates (RGR) and nutrient removal rates of Neoporphyrahaitanensis and Neoporphyradentata. The RGRs and NO3-N removal rates of the two species decreased significantly with increasing desiccation periods. A higher water velocity of 0.5 m s−1 had a greater negative impact on the RGRs and NO3-N and PO4-P removal rates than 0.1 and 0.2 m s−1. N. haitanensis exhibited a greater tolerance to water motion than N. dentata. Additionally, the RGRs and NO3-N and PO4-P removal rates were significantly different among the nitrogen limitation periods. N. haitanensis and N. dentata exhibited different nitrogen usage strategies after nitrogen limitation and recovery. These results provide valuable information relating to the excessive nutrient removal from aquaculture wastewater by Neoporphyra species. Full article
