Description
Summary:The review considers the current views on pathogenesis and therapeutic targets in infectious diarrhea that develops as a result of exposure of enterocytes to viruses or bacterial toxins. The main methods of infectious diarrhea treatment and disadvantages of standard therapy are described. Modern data on the biological activity (bactericidal/bacteriostatic, antiviral, anti-biofilm, antiinflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant properties) of marine algae polysaccharides are presented. The possibilities of using seaweed polysaccharides as the basis of medicines, dietary supplements and functional food products for the prevention and treatment of infectious diarrhea are evaluated.
