L-(-)-Fucose is present in several human lactooligosaccharides, in the eggs of sea urchins and in the eggs of frogs, and in polysaccharides from plants such as seaweed (in the form of fucoidan, i.e., a sulfated fucose polymer), yarrow, potatoes, kiwi, soybeans, pterobean varieties, Canadian canola, etc.
L-(-)-Fucose regulates the activation of intestinal Treg cells and bile acid production of intestinal flora by regulating the immune response of body DC cells. Meanwhile, L-(-)-Fucose can inhibit intestinal muscle contraction spasms by regulating nNOS. L-(-)-Fucose can combine with viruses, bacteria and toxins to prevent them from infecting cells, thereby enhancing body resistance. In cancer targeted drug research and development, the current international research activity and a major breakthrough in the progress of antibodies - drug coupling (antibody - drugconjugates ADCs) and extracellular drugs coupling system (EDCs) are using the CarboConnect technology, The antibody and drug are joined together by L-(-)-Fucose and amino group for different drug activity screening. L-(-)-Fucose is one of the eight essential sugars in the human body and one of the oligosaccharides in human breast milk (human breast milk also contains sialic acid, n-acetylglucosamine, D-glucose and D-galactose, etc.), which is an ideal dietary supplement and a nutritional supplement and immune enhancing factor for infant food.
