    To analyze the effect of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides (SFPS) on the functioning of erythrocyte membrane of S180 mice by affecting Ca2+ channels. A tumor mouse model was developed, and the mice were treated with high, medium, and low doses of SFPS. Changes in [Ca2+] in the erythrocytes in the tumor-bearing mice were measured using laser confocal scanning; changes in the content of sialic acid and the acitivities of ATPase were meausred using relevant test kits; changes in the level of erythrocyte membrane potential were analyzed using FCM; and changes in the complex mobility of erythrocytes were measured using HPCE. SFPS lowered the intracelluar [Ca2+] of erythrocytes in tumor-bearing mice, increased the content of sialic acid on surface of erythrocyte membrane, increased the acitivities of Na+,K+-ATPase and Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase, and raised the level of erythrocyte membrane potential and the complex mobility of erythrocytes in elelctrophoresis. By affecting the Ca2+ channels, SFPS can increase the content of sialic acid on the surface of erythrocyte membrane. The sialic acid combines with Ca2+ to increase the activities of Na+,K+-ATPase and Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase, resulting in a rise in the membrane potential of the erythrocytes and an increase in the complex mobility of the erythrocytes in electrophoresis, thus restoring many physiological and biochemical functions of the e- ythrocyte membrane. This may be one of the anti-tumor mechanisms of SFPS.
