Abstract
The effect on blood pressure of laminine (5-amino-5-carboxypentyltrimethylammonium hydroxide), which is widely distributed in brown algae of the Laminariaceae family, was studied to see if it contributes to the hypotensive activity of these algae which have been used for centuries in oriental medicine. The results show that this compound, at high doses, does have a hypotensive action as a result of a ganglion-blocking effect. As laminine is only present in low concentrations in these algae, its ganglion-blocking activity is not responsible for their hypotensive effect.
