Investigating the anti-proliferative properties and their mechanism(s) of action of marine derived glycosaminoglycans from two marine sources (2020)
Thesis
two marine sources. (Dissertation). University of Salford

The purpose of this study was to investigate the chemotherapeutic properties of marine derived glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and investigate their mechanism(s) of action. The secondary purpose was to investigate differences between the already studied co...

Jones, C. Validation of shellfish isolates (glycosaminoglycans, GAGs) for development as a novel anti-tumour therapy for children : GAG action on lymphocytes/T-regulatory cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

Introduction: Leukaemia is cancer of white blood cells (WBCs) mainly affecting children. Defective WBCs are prominent in blood and cannot provide immune protection. Although chemotherapy treatments are effective, they have many adverse effects which...
