Abstract
Food-derived nanomaterials optimizing bioactive peptides is an emerging route in the functional food field. Zein and gum arabic (GA) possess favorable encapsulation properties for controlled release, targeted delivery and stabilization of food bioactive ingredients, and thus are considered as promising carriers for delivery systems. In order to improve the bioavailability of rice selenium-containing peptide TSeMMM (T), the nanoparticles (ZTGNs) containing peptide T, zein and GA have been previously prepared. This study focused on evaluating the immunomodulatory capacity of ZTGNs. The results showed that ZTGNs significantly alleviated cyclophosphamide-induced reduction in immune organ indices and liver glutathione content of mice. There was a significant upregulation observed in the levels of immune-related cytokines IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ as well as their mRNA expression. Moreover, ZTGNs enriched the diversity of the intestinal flora and promoted the proportion of beneficial bacteria. In conclusion, ZTGNs have potential as immunomodulatory enhancers for food bioactive ingredients, providing prospects for further optimization of dietary supplements.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a newly emerged strategy for disease treatment. One challenge of the application of PDT drugs is the side-effect caused by the non-specificity of the photosensitive molecules. Most of the photosensitizers may invade not only the pathogenic cells but also the normal cells. In recent, people tried to use special cargoes to deliver the drugs into target cells. DNA nanoflowers (NFs) are a kind of newly-emerged nanomaterial which constructed through DNA rolling cycle amplification (RCA) reaction. It is reported that the DNA NFs were suitable materials which have been widely applied as nanocargos for drug delivery in cancer chemotherapeutic treatment. In this paper, we have introduced a new multifunctional DNA NF which could be prepared through an one-pot RCA reaction. This proposed DNA NF contained a versatile AS1411 G-quadruplex moiety, which plays key roles not only for specific recognition of cancer cells but also for near-infrared ray based photodynamic therapy when conjugating with a special porphyrin molecule. We demonstrated that the DNA NF showed good selectivity toward cancer cells, leading to highly efficient photo-induced cytotoxicity. Moreover, the in vivo experiment results suggested this DNA NF is a promising nanomaterial for clinical PDT.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is a naturally occurring essential micronutrient that is required for human health. Selenium supports cellular antioxidant defense and possesses bioeffects such as anti-inflammation, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, and cardiovascular and liver protective effects arising from Se-enhanced cellular antioxidant activity. Past studies on Se have focused on elucidating Se speciation in foods, biofortification strategies to produce Se-enriched foods to address Se deficiency in the population, and the biochemical activities of Se in health. The bioavailability and toxicity of Se are closely correlated to its chemical forms and may exhibit varying effects on body physiology. Selenium exists in inorganic and organic forms, in which inorganic Se such as sodium selenite and sodium selenate is more widely available. However, it is a challenge for safe and effective supplementation considering inorganic Se low bioavailability and high cytotoxicity. Organic Se, by contrast, exhibits higher bioavailability and lower toxicity and has a more diverse composition and structure. Organic Se exists as selenoamino acids and selenoproteins, but recent research has provided evidence that it also exists as selenosugars, selenopolysaccharides, and possibly as selenoflavonoids. Different food categories contain various Se compounds, and their Se profiles vary significantly. Therefore, it is necessary to delineate Se speciation in foods to understand their impact on health. This comprehensive review documents our knowledge of the recent uncovering of the existence of selenosugars and selenopolysaccharides and the putative evidence for selenoflavonoids. The bioavailability and bioactivities of these food-derived organic Se compounds are highlighted, in addition to their composition, structural features, and structure-activity relationships.

Abstract
Peptide-selenium chelate is widely regarded as one of the best selenium supplements for relieving selenium deficiency. In this study, abalone visceral peptides (AVP) was used to prepare a new type of peptides-selenium chelate to develop an organic selenium supplement with antioxidant activity. AVP prepared by alcalase exhibited the highest selenium-chelating ability. UV-visible spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and other structural analysis showed that selenium was mainly bound to the functional groups of -NH, -OH, -CH, CC, CO, and CN bonds on AVP. The formation of AVP-selenium chelate enhanced thermal stability and generated a new crystal structure. The ABTS•+ and •OH scavenging activities of AVP-selenium chelate were increased after in vitro digestion than that of AVP. Conclusively, this study analyzed the chelating mechanism of AVP and selenium from a structural perspective, which would provide a theoretical basis for the development of new selenium supplements.

Abstract
Developing efficient and safe antibacterial agents to inhibit pathogens including Physalospora piricola and Staphylococcus aureus is of great importance. Herein, a novel compound composed of Rosa roxburghii procyanidin, chitosan and selenium nanoparticle (RC-SeNP) was bio-synthesized, with the average diameter and zeta potential being 84.56 nm and -25.60 mV, respectively. The inhibition diameter of the RC-SeNP against P. piricola and S. aureus reached 18.67 mm and 13.13 mm, and the maximum scavenging activity against DPPH and ABTS reached 96.02% and 98.92%, respectively. Moreover, the RC-SeNP completely inhibited the propagation P. piricola and S. aureus on actual apples, suggesting excellent in vivo antimicrobial capacity. The transcriptome analysis and electron microscope observation indicated that the antibacterial activity would be attributed to adhering to and crack the cell walls as well as damage the cytomembrane and nucleus. Moreover, the RC-SeNP effectively maintained the vitamin C, total acid, and water contents of red bayberry, demonstrating potential application for fruit preservation. At last, the RC-SeNP showed no cell toxicity and trace selenium residual dose (0.03 mg/kg on apple, 0.12 mg/kg on red bayberry). This study would enlighten future development on novel nano-bioantibacterial agents for sustainable agriculture.

Abstract
A new type of uniformly dispersed selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) was prepared using Antarctic ice microalgae polypeptides (AIMP) as the stabilizer and dispersant. Different characterization techniques and tests show that the SeNPs are effectively combined with AIMP through physical adsorption and hydrogen bonding to form a more stable structure. Orange-red, zero-valence, amorphous, and spherical AIMP-SeNPs with a diameter of 52.07 ± 1.011 nm and a zeta potential of -41.41 ± 0.882 mV were successfully prepared under the optimal conditions. The AIMP-SeNPs had significantly higher DPPH, ABTS and hydroxyl radicals scavenging abilities compared with AIMP and Na2SeO3, and prevented the growth of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by disrupting the integrity of cell walls, cell membranes and mitochondrial membranes. The AIMP-SeNPs had higher gastrointestinal stability compared with SeNPs. Thus, this research highlights the crucial role of AIMP as a biopolymer framework in the dispersion, stabilization, and size management of SeNPs and concludes that AIMP-SeNPs can be exploited as a potent antioxidant supplement and antibacterial substance in foods and medicine.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) and its organic and inorganic compounds in dietary supplements have been found to possess excellent pharmacodynamics and biological responses. However, Se in bulk form generally exhibits low bioavailability and high toxicity. To address these concerns, nanoscale selenium (SeNPs) with different forms, such as nanowires, nanorods, and nanotubes, have been synthesized, which have become increasingly popular in biomedical applications owing to their high bioavailability and bioactivity, and are widely used in oxidative stress-induced cancers, diabetes, and other diseases. However, pure SeNPs still encounter problems when applied in disease therapy because of their poor stability. The surface functionalization strategy has become increasingly popular as it sheds light to overcome these limitations in biomedical applications and further improve the biological activity of SeNPs. This review summarizes synthesis methods and surface functionalization strategies employed for the preparation of SeNPs and highlights their applications in treating brain diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Harpadon nehereus is a high-protein marine fish. A valuable way to add value to H. nehereus is to convert it into protein hydrolysate. The Maillard reaction is an effective way to improve the functional properties of peptides and proteins, which are affected by many factors such as reactant concentration, water activity, pH, temperature, and heating time. However, the traditional Maillard reaction method is inefficient. The purpose of this study was therefore to explore the effect of the ultrasound-assisted wet heating method on the Maillard reaction of H. nehereus protein hydrolysate (HNPH) in a new-type green solvent - a natural hypereutectic solvent (NADES). RESULTS Harpadon nehereus protein hydrolysate-xylose (Xy) conjugates were prepared via a Maillard reaction in a NADES system using an ultrasound-assisted wet heating method. The effects of different treatment conditions on the Maillard reaction were studied. The optimized glycation degree (DG) of HNPH-Xy conjugates was obtained with a water content of 10%, a reaction temperature of 80 °C, a reaction time of 35 min, and an ultrasonic power level of 300 W. Compared with HNPH, the structure of HNPH-Xy conjugates were significantly changed. Moreover, the functional properties and antioxidant activity of HNPH-Xy were all superior to the HNPH. CONCLUSIONS An ultrasound-assisted wet-heating Maillard reaction between HNPH and Xy in the NADES system could be a promising way to improve the functional properties of HNPH. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
In this study, vitamin A palmitate (VAP)-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)/chitosan-coated PLGA nanoparticle (NP) systems were prepared by the nanoprecipitation technique. The prepared systems were characterized by parameters such as particle size, polydispersity index (PDI), ζ-potential, encapsulation efficiency, in vitro dissolution, and release kinetic study. Then, the cytotoxicity and wound healing profiles of the designed NP formulations in HaCaT (human keratinocyte skin cell lines) were determined. The particle size of VAP-loaded NPs was obtained between 196.33 ± 0.65 and 669.23 ± 5.49 nm. PDI data proved that all NPs were prepared as high quality and monodisperse. While negative ζ-potential values of Blank-NP-1 and NP-1 encoded PLGA NP formulations were obtained, positive ζ-potential was obtained in chitosan-coated NPs. In vitro release studies of NPs observed rapid dissolution in the first 1-6 h, but prolonged dissolution of VAP after rapid dissolution. As a result of cell culture studies and wound healing activity studies, it was determined that NP-7 was the most effective. It was thought that the reason for this was that the NP-7 coded formulation was a chitosan-coated PLGA nanoparticle with the smallest particle size, and it was concluded that the efficiency of VAP was increased with its nanoparticle structure. This study demonstrated the similar wound healing effects of VAP-loaded nanoparticle systems, in particular NP-7, which increases keratinocyte cell proliferation at lower concentrations (10 μg·mL-1) than vitamin A alone (100 μg·mL-1).

Effects of polysaccharide-based silver and selenium nanoparticles on growth performance, biochemical parameters, and immune response of Cyprinus carpio. FISH AND SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY REPORTS 2022; 3:100062. [PMID: 36419613 PMCID: PMC9680073 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsirep.2022.100062] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Comparative effects of polysaccharide-based AMLP-AgNPs and AMLP-SeNPs on Cyprinus carpio were investigated. Fish that received dietary AMLP-SeNPs showed enhanced growth performance,improved immune systems , antioxidant defense systems and normalize blood biochemical parameters. Dietary AMLP-SeNPs and AMLP-AgNPs showed a higher percentage of survivability after A. hydrophila infection. Total A. hydrophila count in blood and muscles was found to be lower in fish fed with dietary AMLP-SeNPs followed by AMLP-AgNPs. These findings suggested that applying nanotechnology to aquaculture could offer up new opportunities, such as reducing feed nutrient losses, increasing faster growth.
Avicennia marina mangrove leaves polysaccharide (AMLP) was used for the synthesis of polysaccharide-based selenium (AMLP-SeNPs) and silver nanoparticles (AMLP-AgNPs). The synthesized nanoparticles were further characterized by UV-Vis, DLS, FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, and HR-TEM analysis. A 60-day (8 weeks) feeding trial experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of AMLP, AMLP-SeNPs, and AMLP-AgNPs dietary supplementation on growth performance parameters, blood parameters, immunological and enzymatic profiles in Cyprinus carpio. The characterization results of AMLP-SeNPs and AMLP-AgNPs confirmed the formation of well-stabilized spherical nanoparticles with a mean particle size of 37.25 and 72.40 nm, respectively having a crystalline structure. The feeding experiment results demonstrated that 2 mg/kg of AMLP-SeNPs followed by 0.2 mg/kg of AMLP-AgNPs showed significantly (p ˂ 0.05) higher final weight, weight gain (WG), specific growth rate (SGR%), protein and lipid efficiency, and lower food conversion ratio as compared to other groups. The catalase, superoxidase dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase activity were significantly (p ˂ 0.05) higher in the group fed 2 mg/kg supplemented AMLP-SeNPs. Total protein and globulin contents were significantly (p ˂ 0.05) higher and albumin concentration was significantly lower in fish that received 2 mg/kg of AMLP- SeNPs as compared to control. A significant increase in serum HDL and decrease in LDL and MDA concentrations were observed in the group supplemented with 2 mg/kg of nano selenium. The body's crude lipid, protein, moisture, and ash were not significantly different from the control. The AMLP-SeNPs showed significantly (p ˂ 0.05) lower aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and higher alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities compared to other test groups. The relative percentage survivability (RPS%) was higher in AMLP-SeNPs (84.6%) followed by AMLP-AgNPs (76.7%) after 8th weeks of supplementary diets as compared to control groups. Overall, the finding of these studies revealed that the inclusion of AMLP-SeNPs improved the growth performance and antioxidant defense system, enhance immune response, and provide resistance against Aeromonas hydrophila in Common carp.

Effect of different ionic liquids and organic solvents on the structural and physicochemical properties of cellulose-protein complexes extracted from Se-enriched peanut leaves. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:171-179. [PMID: 35835299 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.07.050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Revised: 06/28/2022] [Accepted: 07/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
Abundant cellulose and insoluble protein were contained in the Se-enriched peanut leaf residue, a by-product from leaf protein extraction. Ionic liquids (ILs) were used to extract the cellulose-protein complexes (CPCs) from Se-enriched peanut leaf residue. The effects of various ILs as extractants and organic solvents as regenerant on the physicochemical properties of CPCs were compared. The results showed that the yield of CPCs and recovery yield of [AMIM]Cl (1-allyl-3-methylimidazole chloride) were better than those of [BMIM]Cl (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride). Simultaneously, it could be seen from the infrared absorption peaks and secondary structure fitting results that [BMIM]Cl seemed stronger than [AMIM]Cl in destroying the secondary structure of CPCs. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that the CPCs extracted by [BMIM]Cl were lamellate with holes on the surface, and the CPCs extracted by [AMIM]Cl were rough, almost without holes on the surface. Furthermore, the transmittance and tensile strength of the film which contained BA-CPC ([BMIM]Cl as extractant and acetonitrile as regenerant) film were better than those contained AA-CPC ([AMIM]Cl as extractant and acetonitrile as regenerant) film, which might be mainly because the types of ILs and regenerants affect the particle size of CPCs, thereby influencing the mechanical properties of the film.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:582. [PMID: 35631408 PMCID: PMC9143145 DOI: 10.3390/ph15050582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-conjugated biogenic selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) for P2 (purinoceptors) receptor-targeted anti-colon cancer activity were developed in this study. First, the SeNPs were synthesized using Trichoderma extracts (TE) and then conjugated with ATP to enhance their anticancer activity. The developed SeNPs had an oval crystalline structure with an average diameter size of 26.45 ± 1.71 d. nm, while the ATP-SeNPs were 78.6 ± 2.91 d. nm. The SeNPs contain Se, and less persistence of P while the ATP-SeNPs have high level of P, and Se in the energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Further, both nanoparticles exhibited larger sizes in the dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis than in the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. The DLS and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results provide evidence that the amine group (-NH2) of ATP might bind with the negatively charged SeNPs through covalent bonding. The IC50 concentration was 17.25 ± 1.16 µg/mL for ATP-SeNPs and 61.24 ± 2.08 µg/mL against the caco-2 cell line. The IC50 results evidenced the higher cytotoxicity of ATP-SeNPs in the caco-2 cell line than in HEK293 cells. ATP-SeNPs trigger the anticancer activity in the caco-2 cell line through the induction of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) loss and nucleus damage. The biocompatibility test of hemolysis and the egg CAM assay confirmed the non-toxicity of these nanoparticles. Overall, the results proved that the newly developed ATP-SeNPs exhibited higher cytotoxicity in the caco-2 cell line than SeNPs. However, further molecular and in vivo experiments are required to develop the ATP-SeNPs as a candidate drug for cancer-targeted therapeutics.
