[PMID: 38777018 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
With the increasingly mature research on protein-based multi-component systems at home and abroad, the current research on protein-based functional systems has also become a hot spot and focus in recent years. In the functional system, the types of functional factors and their interactions with other components are usually considered to be the subjective factors of the functional strength of the system. Because this process is accompanied by the transfer of protons and electrons in the system, it has antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Polyphenols and polysaccharides have the advantages of wide source, excellent functionality and good compatibility with proteins, and have become excellent and representative functional factors. However, polyphenols and polysaccharides are usually accompanied by poor stability, poor solubility and low bioavailability when used as functional factors. Therefore, the effect of separate release and delivery will inevitably lead to non-significant or direct degradation. After forming a multi-component composite system with the protein, the functional factor will form a stable system driven by hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic forces and electrostatic forces between the functional factor and the protein. When used as a delivery system, it will protect the functional factor, and when released, through the specific recognition of the cell membrane receptor signal, the effect of fixed-point delivery is achieved. In addition, this multi-component composite system can also form a functional composite film by other means, which has a long-term significance for prolonging the shelf life of food and carrying out specific antibacterial.

Potential mechanisms and effects of ultrasound treatment combined with pre- and post-addition of κ-carrageenan on the gelling properties and rheological behavior of myofibrillar proteins under low-salt condition. Meat Sci 2024; 215:109554. [PMID: 38838569 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2024.109554] [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: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
This study investigated the effect of ultrasound (US) combined with pre- and post-addition of κ-carrageenan (KC) on the gelling properties, structural characteristics and rheological behavior of myofibrillar proteins (MP) under low-salt conditions. The results showed that US combined with either pre- or post-addition of KC rendered higher gel strength and water holding capacity (WHC) of MP gels than those treated with US alone and added with KC alone (P < 0.05). US combined with pre-addition of KC facilitated the binding between MP and KC, which enhanced the gel strength and WHC of the mixed MP gels and significantly improved the rheological behavior of MP. This was also confirmed by the highest surface hydrophobicity, disulfide bonds and β-sheet content of the MP gels with US combined with pre-addition of KC. Moreover, microstructural results reflected a denser structure for the pre-addition of KC in combination with US. However, US combined with post-addition of KC resulted in limited MP unfolding and relatively weak hydrophobic interactions in the composite gels, which were less effective in improving the gel properties of the MP gels. This study provides potential strategies for enhancing the gelling properties of low-salt meat products via application of US and KC.

Abstract
The utilization of cold plasma (CP) treatment to promote covalent conjugation of ovalbumin (OVA) and gallic acid (GA), as well as its functionality, were investigated. Results demonstrated that CP significantly enhanced the covalent grafting of OVA and GA. The maximum conjugation of GA, 24.33 ± 2.24 mg/g, was achieved following 45 s of CP treatment. Covalent conjugation between GA and OVA were confirmed through analyses of total sulfhydryl (-SH) group, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Unfolding of the OVA molecule occurred upon conjugation with GA, as evidenced by multiple spectroscopy analyses. Additionally, conjugation with GA resulted in significant improvements in the antioxidant activity and emulsifying properties of OVA. This study demonstrated that CP is a robust and sustainable technique for promoting the covalent conjugate of polyphenols and proteins, offering a novel approach to enhance the functional properties of proteins.

Abstract
Natural bioactive compounds from plants exhibit substantial pharmacological potency and therapeutic value. However, the development of most plant bioactive compounds is hindered by low solubility and instability. Conventional pharmaceutical forms, such as tablets and capsules, only partially overcome these limitations, restricting their efficacy. With the recent development of nanotechnology, nanocarriers can enhance the bioavailability, stability, and precise intracellular transport of plant bioactive compounds. Researchers are increasingly integrating nanocarrier-based drug delivery systems (NDDS) into the development of natural plant compounds with significant success. Moreover, natural products benefit from nanotechnological enhancement and contribute to the innovation and optimization of nanocarriers via self-assembly, grafting modifications, and biomimetic designs. This review aims to elucidate the collaborative and reciprocal advancement achieved by integrating nanocarriers with botanical products, such as bioactive compounds, polysaccharides, proteins, and extracellular vesicles. This review underscores the salient challenges in nanomedicine, encompassing long-term safety evaluations of nanomedicine formulations, precise targeting mechanisms, biodistribution complexities, and hurdles in clinical translation. Further, this study provides new perspectives to leverage nanotechnology in promoting the development and optimization of natural plant products for nanomedical applications and guiding the progression of NDDS toward enhanced efficiency, precision, and safety.

Wu Y, Li Y, Liu H, Li P, Du B, Xie XA, Li L. Covalent conjugation of Inca peanut albumin and polyphenols with different phenolic hydroxyl numbers through laccase catalysis to improve functional properties. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2024; 104:4028-4038. [PMID: 38252689 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.13285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Enzymatic crosslinking is a method that can be used to modify Inca peanut albumin (IPA) using polyphenols, and provides desirable functionalities; however, the effect of polyphenol structures on conjugate properties is unclear. In this study, we selected four polyphenols with different numbers of phenolic hydroxyl groups [para-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA), protocatechuic acid (PCA), gallic acid (GA), and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)] for covalent modification of IPA by enzymatic crosslinking, and explored the structure-function changes of the IPA-polyphenol conjugates. RESULTS Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) analysis showed that laccase successfully promoted covalent crosslinking of IPA with polyphenols, with the order of degree of conjugation as EGCG > GA > PCA > HBA, the IPA-EGCG conjugate showed the highest polyphenol binding equivalents (98.35 g kg-1 protein), and a significant reduction in the content of free amino, sulfhydryl, and tyrosine group. The oxidation of polyphenols by laccase forms quinone or semiquinone radicals that are covalently crosslinked to the reactive groups of IPA, leading to significant changes in the secondary and tertiary structures of IPA, with spherical structures transforming into dense lamellar structures. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging ability and emulsification stability of IPA-EGCG conjugates improved by almost 6-fold and 2.7-fold, respectively, compared with those of unmodified IPA. CONCLUSION These data suggest that the higher the number of polyphenol hydroxyl groups, the higher the degree of IPA-polyphenol conjugation; additionally, enzymatic crosslinking can significantly improve the functional properties of IPA. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
To understand the changes in arabinoxylan (AX) during breadmaking, multi-step enzyme digestion was conducted to re-extract arabinoxylan (AX-B) from AX-fortified bread. Their structural changes were compared using HPSEC, HPAEC, FT-IR, methylation analysis, and 1H NMR analysis; their properties changes in terms of enzymatic inhibition activities and in vitro fermentability against gut microbiota were also compared. Results showed that AX-B contained a higher portion of covalently linked protein while the molecular weight was reduced significantly after breadmaking process (from 677.1 kDa to 15.6 kDa); the structural complexity of AX-B in terms of the degree of branching was increased; the inhibition activity against α-amylase (76.81 % vs 73.89 % at 4 mg/mL) and α-glucosidase (64.43 % vs 58.08 % at 4 mg/mL) was improved; the AX-B group produced a higher short-chain fatty acids concentration than AX (54.68 ± 7.86 mmol/L vs 44.03 ± 4.10 mmol/L). This study provides novel knowledge regarding the structural and properties changes of arabinoxylan throughout breadmaking, which help to predict the health benefits of fibre-fortified bread and achieve precision nutrition.

Abstract
This study investigated the grafting chlorogenic acid (CA) onto myosin, utilizing various techniques including conventional method, ultrasound, microwave, and combination of ultrasound and microwave (UM). The grafting efficiency was as follows: conventional method < microwave < ultrasound < UM. The UM technique manifested the highest CA-binding capacity (80.26 μmol/g myosin) through covalent bonding, and a much shorter time was required for conjugation than conventional method. The conjugation of polyphenol significantly increased the solubility of myosin with reduced aggregation behavior, which was accompanied by structural alterations from ordered structures (α-helix and β-sheet) to disordered forms. The emulsion stabilized by UM-myosin-CA conjugate exhibited the most homogeneous microstructure with favorable creaming stability. Moreover, the resulting emulsion presented strong oxidation resistance and storage stability. These results illustrate the promising potential of employing CA-grafted myosin, especially when processed using the UM technique, in the development of highly efficient emulsifiers.
