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 六合彩直播开奖 Faculty of Pharmacy faculty member Prof. Jovencio G. Apostol, Ph.D., and Regina Belen Callanta, a biological sciences student at the 六合彩直播开奖 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 六合彩直播开奖 Director He examined the genetic makeup of the Philippine endemic coffee shrubs.
