Identification of New Potential Allergens from Green-lipped Mussel (Perna Canaliculus)
Iran J Allergy Asthma Immunol. 2022 Dec 24;21(6):711-715. doi: 10.18502/ijaai.v21i6.11532.ABSTRACTThe green-lipped mussel (Perna canaliculus) originates from New Zealand. To preserve the health benefits of green-lipped mussel meat, it is freeze-dried to make a long-lasting powder. The powder is used to treat arthritis because of its potential anti-inflammatory properties. The report describes a 54-year-old woman who developed immediate rhinoconjunctival and respiratory symptoms after inhaling green-lipped mussel powder she gave to her dog for arthritis. A skin prick test with green-lipped mussel powder was performed. Prote...

Clinical Guide to Obesity and Nonherbal Nutraceuticals in Canine Orthopedic Conditions
The typical canine rehabilitation patient with orthopedic disease may differ in its nutritional needs, with the assumption that most patients will be on a complete and balanced commercial dog food that is not enriched with agents for ameliorating their condition. For a significant number of rehabilitation patients, obesity is a major issue where hypocaloric diet plans are often implemented and are covered extensively elsewhere (VCNA Small Animal Practice May 2021). The focus of this article will be implementation of physical activity or structured physical exercise protocols and how they might be used in combination with a...

Isolation and structural characterization of bioactive glycosaminoglycans from the green-lipped mussel Perna canaliculus
Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2022 Apr 25;612:50-56. doi: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2022.04.095. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChondroitin sulfate (CS) and heparan sulfate (HS) are sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains that consist of repeating disaccharide units composed of hexosamine and hexuronic acid. GAG chains exhibit diverse bioactivities in a structure-specific manner. Marine invertebrates are a rich source of highly sulfated and rare structures of GAG chains. Here, we isolated GAGs from the green-lipped mussel Perna canaliculus, an aquaculture species that is produced on a large scale. We separated GAGs based on the degree o...
