Studies on anti-allergic activity of Sargassum horneri extract

Chlorophyll c2 in a Sargassum horneri extract suppressed the degranulation of rat basophilic leukaemia RBL-2H3 cells. In this contribution, the mode of action of S. horneri extract was revealed. The extract inhibited the elevation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration induced by the antigen. Immunoblo...
