Bioactive carbohydrate polymers from marine sources as potent nutraceuticals in modulating obesity: a review. Food Sci Biotechnol 2024; 33:1517-1528. [PMID: 38623423 PMCID: PMC11016051 DOI: 10.1007/s10068-024-01525-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024] Open
Abstract
The majority of bioactive polysaccharides are present in some marine creatures. These polysaccharides are considered as promising anti-obesity agents, their anti-obesity properties involve a number of mechanisms, including suppression of lipid metabolism and absorption, impact on satiety, and prevention of adipocyte differentiation. Obesity is linked to type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other metabolic syndromes. In this review various bioactive polysaccharides like chitin, chitosan, fucosylated chondroitin sulphate, chitooligosaccharides and glycosaminoglycans have been discussed for their anti-obesity effects through various pathways. Critical evaluation of observational studies and intervention trials on obesity, lipid hypertrophy, dyslipidemia, and type 2 diabetes was done with a primary focus on specific marine fauna polysaccharide as a source of seafood that is consumed all over the world. It has been observed that consumption of individual seafood constituents was effective in reducing obesity. Thus, marine derived novel bioactive polysaccharides have potential applications in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Guar gum series affect nanostructured lipid carriers via electrostatic assembly or steric hindrance: Improving their oral delivery for phytosterols. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:126667. [PMID: 37660846 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126667] [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: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Surface modification of nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) can be an effective way to improve their oral delivery for active ingredients. In this study, four type of guar gum series modified NLCs for the delivery of phytosterols (PS) were constructed and the effects of the polysaccharides on their structure and physicochemical properties were studied. DLS and AFM results revealed that positively charged polysaccharides could bind to PS-NLCs through electrostatic attraction and made the complexes finally take positive charges, while negatively charged polysaccharides were more likely to fill in the gaps of NLC systems to achieve a balance between electrostatic repulsion and intermolecular forces. Although all four polysaccharides exhibited good storage stability and controlled release of PS in simulated intestinal digestion, PS-NLCs modified with partially hydrolyzed cationic guar gum (PHCG) at medium or high concentrations exhibited better gastric stability, mucoadhesion, and cellular uptake, which had considerable significance for improving the oral bioavailability of PS. This might be related to the coating structure of PHCG-PS-NLCs confirmed by AFM, FTIR, and Raman characterization. This study provide a reference value for designing suitable PS-NLC complexes without synthetic surfactants.

Dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) modulate the kinetics of lipid digestion in vitro: Impact of the bean matrix and processing. Food Res Int 2023; 173:113245. [PMID: 37803558 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113245] [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: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
The lipid-lowering effect of dry beans and their impact on lipid and cholesterol metabolism have been established. This study investigates the underlying mechanisms of this effect and explore how the structural integrity of processed beans influences their ability to modulate lipolysis using the INFOGEST static in vitro digestion model. Dietary fiber (DF) fractions were found to decrease lipolysis by increasing the digesta viscosity, leading to depletion-flocculation and/or coalescence of lipid droplets. Bean flours exhibited a more pronounced reduction in lipolysis compared to DF. Furthermore, different levels of bean structural integrity showed varying effects on modulating lipolysis, with medium-sized bean particles demonstrating a stronger reduction. Hydrothermal treatment compromised the ability of beans to modulate lipid digestion, while hydrostatic-pressure treatment (600 MPa/5min) enhanced the effect. These findings highlight that the lipid-lowering effect of beans is not solely attributed to DF but also to the overall bean matrix, which can be manipulated through processing techniques.

The lipid digestion behavior of oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by different particle-sized insoluble dietary fiber from citrus peel. Food Chem X 2023; 19:100831.

Abstract
In this study, oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by insoluble dietary fibre from citrus peel (CIDF) exhibited an obviously delayed lipid digestion property through gastrointestinal tract (GIT) model. Our results suggested that the rate and extent of lipid digestion greatly relied on particle sizes and concentrations of CIDF, and the inhibition effect of lipolysis was markedly enhanced with decreasing particle sizes and increasing CIDF levels. Furthermore, compared with Tween80-stabilized emulsion, the maximum inhibition extent of lipolysis was 38.77% for CIDF400-stabilized one at 0.4 wt% concentration. Effects of CIDFs on lipid digestion was mainly due to the formation of protective layers around oil droplets, further blocking the entry of lipase to the internal lipids, and/or attributed to the increasing viscosity of emulsions caused by CIDFs, finally limiting the transportation of some substances in the simulated small intestine digestion. Our research would provide useful references for the application of CIDF-stabilized emulsions in low-calorie food.

Abstract
Excessive lipid intake is linked to an elevated risk of health problems. However, reducing lipid contents may influence food structure and flavor. Some alternatives are needed to control the lipid absorption. Emulsions are common carriers for lipids, which can control the hydrolysis and absorption of lipids. Chitin (Ch) and chitosan (CS) are natural polysaccharides with good biodegradability, biocompatibility, and unique cationic properties. They have been reported to be able to delay lipolysis, which can be regarded as one of the most promising agents that regulates lipid digestion (LiD). The application of Ch/CS and their derivatives in emulsions are summarized in this review with a focus on their performances and mechanisms for LiD regulation, aiming to provide theoretical guidance for the development of novel Ch/CS emulsions, and the regulation of LiD. A reasonable design of emulsion interface can provide its resistance to the external environment and then control LiD. The properties of emulsion interface are the key factors affecting LiD. Therefore, systematic study on the relationship between Ch/CS-based emulsion structure and LiD can not only instruct the reasonable design of emulsion interface to accurately regulate LiD, but also provide scientific guidelines for applying Ch/CS in functional food, medicine and other fields.

Abstract
Introduction: Metabolic endotoxemia (ME) is the main cause of sub-clinical chronic inflammation, which subsequently triggers the onset of several chronic diseases. However, recent reports have indicated that dietary fiber (DF) contributes significantly to ameliorating ME and inflammation. This protocol aims to provide an outline of all procedures in synthesizing the available data on the effect of DF against ME. Methods: Following the PRISMA 2020 guidelines for preparing protocols, this protocol was registered in the International Prospective Registry of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) with registration number (CRD42023417833). In this review, we specifically focused on the inclusion of clinical trials that met the following criteria: they were published or available as preprints, employed random, quasi-random, or cross-over designs, and were exclusively documented in the English language. Clinical medical subject headings (MeSH) as search terms were used on prominent databases such as MEDLINE, COCHRANE library, PubMed, World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platforms, and US National Institutes of Health Ongoing Trials Register Clinicaltrials.gov. Results and discussion: This protocol will guide the exploration of articles that report changes in ME biomarkers in subjects supplemented with DF. The findings of this protocol will ensure a comprehensive evaluation of available evidence, provide a quantitative summary, identify patterns and trends, enhance statistical power, and address heterogeneity, which collectively will clarify the optimal types, doses, and duration of DF interventions for managing ME and low-grade inflammation. Ethics and dissemination: The quantitative data of clinical trials will be collected, and a meta-analysis will be performed using RevMan V.5.3 software. Therefore, no ethical approval is required.

Abstract
Pectin is widely spread in nature and it develops an extremely complex structure in terms of monosaccharide composition, glycosidic linkage types, and non-glycosidic substituents. As a non-digestible polysaccharide, pectin exhibits resistance to human digestive enzymes, however, it is easily utilized by gut microbiota in the large intestine. Currently, pectin has been exploited as a novel functional component with numerous physiological benefits, and it shows a promising prospect in promoting human health. In this review, we introduce the regulatory effects of pectin on intestinal inflammation and metabolic syndromes. Subsequently, the digestive behavior of pectin in the upper gastrointestinal tract is summarized, and then it will be focused on pectin's fermentation characteristics in the large intestine. The fermentation selectivity of pectin by gut bacteria and the effects of pectin structure on intestinal microecology were discussed to highlight the interaction between pectin and bacterial community. Meanwhile, we also offer information on how gut bacteria orchestrate enzymes to degrade pectin. All of these findings provide insights into pectin digestion and advance the application of pectin in human health.

Abstract
In the present work, the optimization of extraction, emulsifying properties, and biological activities of polysaccharides from Lentinula edodes Sing (LES) were studied. The results showed LES polysaccharides extracted by hot water or ultrasonication are a group of β-glucan. Among all the samples, the one extracted by hot water showed the best emulsifying capacity. In addition, the results demonstrated that LES polysaccharide had strong scavenging activities in vitro on DPPH and ABTS radicals, which reached the highest level for the one extracted by 90 min ultrasonication (p < 0.05). Overall, Lentinula edodes Sing polysaccharides (LESPs) may have potential applications as emulsifying agents in food industries.

Assessing the nutritional quality of lipid components in commercial meal replacement shakes using an in vitro digestion model. Curr Res Food Sci 2023; 7:100568.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the nutritional value of five commercial meal-replacement shakes, and mainly focused on the lipid digestion fates and fat-soluble vitamin bioavailability. Four out of five samples exhibited a low lipolysis level (37.33-61.42%), aligning with the intended objectives of these products. Although the remaining sample rich in diacylglycerol (DAG) had a higher lipolysis level (80.83%), the inherent low-calorie nature of DAG might compensate for this drawback. The release level of individual fatty acid was largely determined by the glycerolipid composition. Moreover, the strong positive correlation between lipid hydrolyzed products amounts and the fat-soluble vitamin bioavailability was observed. Surprisingly, one out of five samples can provide enough vitamin A and vitamin E for consumers as a total replacement of one or two regular meals. Consequently, the meal-replacement shakes hold the potential to emerge as healthy products for this fast-paced era if the composition and structure were carefully designed and calculated.

Abstract
Transglutaminase (TGase) is gaining increasing recognition as a novel and healthier bio-binder for meat analogs. This work focused on the TGase-induced crosslinking behaviors, and then evaluated the difference in quality characteristics (Texture, water distribution, cooking properties, volatile flavor and protein digestibility) of peanut protein-based burger patties treated with TGase and traditional binder (methylcellulose, MC). TGase-catalyzed crosslinking, enabling amino acids to participate in the formation of covalent bonds rather than non-covalent bonds, and promoted the formation of protein aggregates and dense gel networks by changing the protein structure, ultimately improving the quality characteristics of burger patties. Compared with the TGase treatment, MC-treated burger patties showed a greater texture parameter, lower cooking loss, higher flavor retention but a lower degree of digestibility. The findings will contribute to a better understanding of the roles of TGase and traditional binders in plant-based meat analogs.

Abstract
Here, we prepared novel composite gels composed of citrus insoluble nanofiber and amylose, and examined their potential to be used as fat replacers and inhibit lipid digestion. We further evaluated the effect of different nanofiber/amylose ratios on the texture, thermal stability, water distribution, microstructure and lipid digestion of the composite gels. The addition of nanofiber improved the hardness, gumminess, viscoelasticity, thermal stability, and water-holding capacity of the composite gels, as well as strengthen their interpenetrating three-dimensional network. The gel prepared at a nanofiber/amylose ratio of 1:4 could provide an oral sensory perception similar to that of cream and therefore can be used as a potential fat replacer. Moreover, the emulsion stabilized by nanofiber/amylose could well inhibit lipid digestion, and the nanofiber/amylose ratio of 1:4 could achieve the minimum release amount of free fatty acids (55.81%). These findings provide a reference for the development of potential fat replacers.

Polysaccharide-based structured lipid carriers for the delivery of curcumin: An in vitro digestion study. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 227:113349.

Abstract
The present work aimed at studying the in vitro digestion fate of κ-carrageenan (KC) or agar (AG) emulsion gels (EG), and KC oil-filled aerogels (OAG) in terms of their structural changes, lipolysis kinetics and curcumin bioaccessibility. On the one hand, both EG and aerogels showed large (70-200 µm) and heterogeneous particles after gastric conditions, indicating the release of bulk oil and gelled material. Nonetheless, this material release in the stomach phase was lower in the case of EG-AG and OAG-KC compared to EG-KC. After small intestinal conditions, EG and oil-filled aerogels presented a wide range of particle sizes probably due to the presence of undigested lipid material, gelled structures, as well as lipid digestion products. For the most part, adding curcumin to the structures' lipid phase did not cause of the structural modifications that occurred at the different in vitro digestion phases. On the other hand, the lipolysis kinetics was different depending on the type of structure. Amongst emulsion-gels, those formulated with κ-carrageenan presented a slower and lower lipolysis kinetics compared to those formulated with agar, which could be attributed to their higher initial hardness. Overall, the addition of curcumin in the lipid phase decreased the lipolysis in all the structures, which evidenced its interference in the lipid digestion process. The curcumin bioaccessibility reached high values (≈ 100 %) for all the studied structures, presenting a high solubility in intestinal fluids. This work unravels the implications of microstructural changes of emulsion-gels and oil-filled aerogels during digestion and their impact on their digestibility and subsequent functionality.

Capsaicin encapsulated in W/O/W double emulsions fabricated via ethanol-induced pectin gelling: Improvement of bioaccessibility and reduction of irritation. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 235:123899.

Abstract
Capsaicin is a water-insoluble bioactive component with several beneficial physiological functions. However, the widespread application of this hydrophobic phytochemical is limited by its low water-solubility, intense irritation, and poor bioaccessibility. These challenges can be overcome by entrapping capsaicin within the internal water phase of water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) double emulsions via using ethanol to induce pectin gelling. In this study, ethanol was used both to dissolve capsaicin and to promote pectin gelation, thereby forming capsaicin-loaded pectin hydrogels that were used as the internal water phase of the double emulsions. Pectin addition improved the physical stability of the emulsions and led to a high encapsulation efficiency of capsaicin (>70 % after 7d storage). After simulated oral and gastric digestion, capsaicin-loaded double emulsions maintained their compartmentalized structure, avoiding capsaicin leakage in the month and stomach. The double emulsions were digested in the small intestine, thereby releasing the capsaicin. Capsaicin bioaccessibility was significantly enhanced after encapsulation, which was attributed to mixed micelle formation by the digested lipid phase. Furthermore, encapsulation of capsaicin within the double emulsions reduced the irritation in the gastrointestinal tissues of mice. This kind of double emulsion may have great potential for the development of more palatable capsaicin-loaded functional food products.

Enhancing in vivo retinol bioavailability by incorporating β-carotene from alga Dunaliella salina into nanoemulsions containing natural-based emulsifiers. Food Res Int 2023; 164:112359.

Abstract
The use of microalgae as a source of bioactive compounds has gained interest since they present advantages vs higher plants. Among them, Dunaliella salina is one of the best sources of natural β-carotene, which is the precursor of vitamin A. However, β-carotene shows reduced oral bioavailability due to its chemical degradation and poor absorption. The work aimed to evaluate the influence of the emulsifier and oil concentration on the digestive stability of Dunaliella Salina-based nanoemulsions and study their influence on the digestibility and the β-carotene bioaccessibility. In addition, the effect of the emulsifier nature on the absorption of β-carotene and its conversion to retinol in vivo was also investigated. Results showed that the coalescence observed in soybean lecithin nanoemulsion during the gastrointestinal digestion reduced the digestibility and β-carotene bioaccessibility. In contrast, whey protein nanoemulsion that showed aggregation in the gastric phase could be redispersed in the intestinal phase facilitating the digestibility and bioaccessibility of the compound. In vivo results confirmed that whey protein nanoemulsion increased the bioavailability of retinol to a higher extent (Cmax 685 ng/mL) than soybean lecithin nanoemulsion (Cmax 394 ng/mL), because of an enhanced β-carotene absorption.

Abstract
Curcumin presents interesting biological activities but low chemical stability, so it has been incorporated into different emulsion-based systems in order to increase its bioaccessibility. Many strategies are being investigated to increase the stability of these systems. Among them, the use of polysaccharides has been seen to highly improve the emulsion stability but also to modulate their digestibility and the release of the encapsulated compounds. However, the effect of these polysaccharides on nanoemulsions depends on the presence of other components. Then, this work aimed to study the effect of alginate addition at different concentrations (0-1.5%) on the gastrointestinal fate and stability of curcumin-loaded nanoemulsions formulated using soybean lecithin or whey protein as emulsifiers. Results showed that, in the absence of polysaccharides, whey protein was more effective than lecithin in preventing curcumin degradation during digestion and its use also provided greater lipid digestibility and higher curcumin bioaccessibility. The addition of alginate, especially at ≥1%, greatly prevented curcumin degradation during digestion up to 23% and improved the stability of nanoemulsions over time. However, it reduced lipid digestibility and curcumin bioaccessibility. Our results provide relevant information on the use of alginate on different emulsifier-based nanoemulsions to act as carriers of curcumin.

Abstract
Pectin, a complex hydrocolloid, attracts extensive attention and application stemming from its good emulsification. However, the source of emulsification remains a conundrum. In this experiment, the structures of six kinds of commercial pectin, including LM 101 AS (101), LM 104 AS (104), 121 SLOW SET (121), YM 150 H (150), LM 13 CG (13CG), and β-PECTIN (β-P) were determined, and the effects of pectin structure on emulsion emulsification, rheology and in vitro digestibility were studied. The results showed that the β-P pectin contained a higher content of protein, ferulic acid, and acetyl and had a lower interfacial tension; this pectin-stabilized emulsion exhibited a smaller droplet size and superior centrifugal and storage stability. The results showed that β-P pectin had higher contents of protein, ferulic acid, and acetyl and lower interfacial tension than other pectins, and its stabilized emulsion exhibited smaller droplet size and superior centrifugation and storage stability. Furthermore, the emulsion formed by the pectin with high molecular weight and degree of methoxylation (DM) had a higher viscosity, which can inhibit the aggregation of emulsion droplets to some extent. However, the DM of pectin affected the charge and digestion behavior of pectin emulsion to a great extent. The smaller the DM, the more negative charge the emulsion carried, and the higher the release rate of free fatty acids. The results provided a basis for the rational selection and structural design of the pectin emulsifier.

Pickering oil-in-water emulsions (PPM-E) stabilized by plant (pea) protein-based microgels (PPM), as well as PPM-E where the interface was additionally covered by cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), were designed at acidic pH (pH 3.0). The gastrointestinal fate of the PPM-E and free fatty acid (FFA) release, was tested via the INFOGEST static in vitro digestion model and data was fitted using theoretical models. Lipid digestion was also monitored using lipase alone bypassing the gastric phase to understand the impact of proteolysis on FFA release. Coalescence was observed in the PPM-stabilized emulsions in the gastric phase, but not in those co-stabilized by CNC. However, coalescence occurred during the intestinal digestion stage, irrespective of the CNC concentration added (1–3 wt % CNC). The presence of CNC lowered the lipolysis kinetics but raised the extent of FFA release as compared to in its absence (p < 0.05), due to lower levels of gastric coalescence, i.e., a higher interfacial area. The trends were similar when just lipase was added with no prior gastric phase, although the extent and rate of FFA release was reduced in all emulsions, highlighting the importance of prior proteolysis in lipolysis of such systems. In summary, an electrostatically self-assembled interfacial structure of two types of oppositely-charged particles (at gastric pH) might be a useful strategy to enable enhanced delivery of lipophilic compounds that require protection in the stomach but release in the intestines.

Structuring functional mayonnaise incorporated with Himalayan walnut oil Pickering emulsions by ultrasound assisted emulsification. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2022; 86:106022.

Abstract
Nowadays Pickering emulsions have attracted immense attention due to their enhanced stability and numerous food applications. In this context, the present study was aimed to introduce Pickering emulsions stabilized by soy protein isolate (SPI)-maltodextrin (MD)-pectin complex incorporated with Himalayan walnut oil (HWO) for development of novel mayonnaise by ultrasound assisted emulsification. The functional mayonnaise was characterised for its stability, structural, textural, rheological and morphological properties. The rheological and microstructure measurements indicated that use of SPI-pectin HWO emulsions had a viscoelastic solid behaviour (G' > G″) with highly interconnected gel-like network structure leading to diffused oil droplet distribution. An increase in particle size diameter (1.86-5.09 µm) and hardness values (43.16-69.08 N) was seen with increase in the SPI-pectin wall material concentration. A significant reduction in whiteness (L* value) from 91.12 to 53.52 was noted during storage for encapsulated samples. Mayonnaise formulations containing encapsulated HWO depicted significantly lower peroxide value (2.65 meqO2/kg) after extended storage period in comparison to free oil (8.33 meqO2/kg). FTIR analysis of mayonnaise formulations depicted successful complexation of HWO with SPI-MD-pectin matrix. These findings would be of immense importance in designing of Pickering emulsions stabilized by protein-polysaccharide particles with aim of delivering nutraceuticals associated with myriad health benefits.

Emulsion gels and oil-filled aerogels as curcumin carriers: Nanostructural characterization of gastrointestinal digestion products. Food Chem 2022; 387:132877.

Abstract
Agar and κ-carrageenan emulsion gels and oil-filled aerogels were investigated as curcumin carriers and their structure and mechanical properties, as well as their structural changes upon in vitro gastrointestinal digestion were characterized. Agar emulsion gels presented stiffer behaviour, with smaller and more homogeneous oil droplets (ϕ ∼ 12 µm) than those from κ-carrageenan (ϕ ∼ 243 µm). The structure of κ-carrageenan gels was characterized by the presence of rigid swollen linear chains, while agar produced more branched networks. After simulated gastrointestinal digestion bile salt lamellae/micelles (∼5 nm) and larger vesicles of partially digested oil (Rg ∼ 20-50 nm) were the predominant structures, being their proportion dependent of the polysaccharide type and the physical state of the gel network. The presence of curcumin induced the formation of larger vesicles and limited the formation of mixed lamellae/micelles.

Abstract
Inorganic or organic nanoparticles are often incorporated into foods to enhance their quality, stability, nutrition, or safety. When they pass through the gastrointestinal environment, the properties of these nanoparticles are altered, which impacts their biological effects and potential toxicity. Consequently, there is a need to understand how different kinds of nanoparticles behave within the gastrointestinal tract. In this article, the current understanding of the gastrointestinal fate of nanoparticles in foods is reviewed. Initially, the fundamental physicochemical and structural properties of nanoparticles are discussed, including their compositions, sizes, shapes, and surface chemistries. Then, the impact of food matrix effects and gastrointestinal environments on the fate of ingested nanoparticles is discussed. In particular, the influence of nanoparticle properties on food digestion and nutraceutical bioavailability is highlighted. Finally, future research directions are highlighted that will enable the successful utilization of nanotechnology in foods while also ensuring they are safe.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of hydrocolloids with different electrostatic characteristics, namely negatively charged xanthan gum (XG), positively charged chitosan (CH), and non-ionic guar gum (GG), on the physicochemical properties, stability, and lipid digestibility of 10% (w/w) soybean oil-in-water Pickering emulsions stabilized by nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) was investigated. Addition of XG and CH to the NFC-stabilized emulsions significantly increased the oil droplet sizes and apparent viscosity at high shear rates as compared with the addition of GG. The XG added emulsion showed the lowest rate and extent of creaming, whereas the CH added emulsion gave the highest extent of creaming. The addition of XG and CH led to a more pronounced effect on in vitro lipid digestion, i.e. changes in droplet sizes, surface charges, microstructure, and free fatty acid (FFA) release, than the addition of GG. The XG added emulsion showed the lowest rate and extent of lipid digestion possibly due to the high viscosity of the aqueous phase, large oil droplet sizes, and interaction of XG and calcium, resulting in the reduction of lipase activity. The CH added emulsion exhibited the highest extent of lipid digestion possibly due to binding between CH and FFAs and move away from the droplet surfaces, thereby facilitating the lipase activity. In summary, it can be concluded that ionic hydrocolloids exerted more influence on NFC-stabilized Pickering emulsions than non-ionic ones. These results may facilitate the design of highly stable emulsion-based functional food products with added hydrocolloids to promote health and wellness.

Abstract
Curcumin nanosuspensions (Cur-NSs), chitosan-coated Cur-NSs (CS-Cur-NSs), and oligochitosan-coated Cur-NSs (OCS-Cur-NSs) were prepared by using an ultrasonic homogenization technique. The mean particle size of Cur-NSs was 210.9 nm and significantly (p < 0.05) increased to 368.8 nm by CS coating and decreased to 172.8 nm by OCS coating. Encapsulation efficiencies of Cur-NSs, CS-Cur-NSs, and OCS-Cur-NSs were 80.6%, 91.4%, and 88.5%, respectively. The mucin adsorption of Cur-NSs was steeply increased about 3–4 times by CS and OCS coating. Morphological changes of these NSs were studied using circular dichroism spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Thus, CS-Cur-NSs and OCS-Cur-NSs showed great potential as mucoadhesive nano-carriers for the efficient delivery of water insoluble compounds like curcumin to the gastrointestinal system.

Abstract
Nanosystems that incorporate both polymers and lipids have garnered attention as emerging nanotechnology approach for oral drug delivery. These hybrid systems leverage on the combined properties of polymeric and lipid-based nanocarriers while eliminating their inherent limitations. In view of the safety-related benefits of naturally occurring polymers, we have focused on systems incorporating polysaccharides and derivatives into the hybrid structure. The aim of this review is to evaluate existing biopolymers with specific focus on lipopolysaccharide hybrid systems and their advancement toward enhancing oral drug delivery. Furthermore, we shall identify future research areas that require further exploration toward achieving an optimized hybrid system for easy translation into clinical use. In this review, we have appraised formulations that combined polysaccharides/derivatives with lipids in a single nanocarrier system. These formulations were grouped into lipid-core-polysaccharide-shell systems, polysaccharide-core-lipid-shell systems, self-emulsifying lipopolysaccharide hybrid systems, and hybrid lipopolysaccharide matrix systems. In these systems, we highlighted how the polysaccharide phase enhances the oral absorption of encapsulated bioactives with regard to their function and mechanism. The various lipopolysaccharide designs presented in this review demonstrated significant improvement in pharmacokinetics of bioactives. A multitude of studies found lipopolysaccharide hybrid systems as nascent nanoplatforms for the oral delivery of challenging bioactives due to features that favor gastrointestinal absorption and bioavailability improvement. With future research already geared toward product optimization and scaling up processes, as well as detailed pharmacological and toxicology pre-clinical testing, these versatile systems will have remarkable impact in clinical application.

Effect of high pressure homogenization on water-soluble pectin characteristics and bioaccessibility of carotenoids in mixed juice. Food Chem 2021; 371:131073.

Abstract
The effect of high pressure homogenization (HPH) compared with simple blending and milling on mixed juice properties, including water-soluble pectin (WSP) characteristics and total carotenoid bioaccessibility (TCB) was investigated. Overall, HPH treatments, which comprised of varied pressures, passes and inlet temperature (IT) affected WSP characteristics. Increased pressure showed decreased molecular weight (Mw), galacturonic acid (GalA) content and branching, and enhanced degree of methylesterification (DM) and chain linearity, suggesting degradation of RG-I fragments. Two passes at 140 MPa enhanced GalA content, nevertheless it reduced DM, implying rearrangement of depolymerized fractions. Besides, elevated IT combined with high pressure increased GalA content and DM signifying thermo-solubilization of certain HG-rich pectin. Notably, the TCB was enhanced by higher pressure and elevated temperature, which had positive relationship with DM and chain linearity of WSP and negative correlations with GalA content and Mw. Results highlighted the potential of HPH to improve WSP characteristics to enhance TCB.

Upper digestion fate of citrus pectin-stabilized emulsion: An interfacial behavior perspective. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 264:118040.

Abstract
Citrus pectin can serve as a naturally digestion-resistant emulsifier, although how it achieves this effect is still unknown. In this study, the upper digestion fate of an emulsion stabilized by different concentrations of citrus pectin, and changes in its interfacial properties during digestion, were investigated. Emulsions stabilized by high-concentration citrus pectin (3 %) were relatively stable during digestion and had a lower free fatty acid (FFA) release rate than emulsions stabilized by low-concentration citrus pectin (1 %). At the low concentration, the citrus pectin interface had a thin absorbing layer and was largely replaced by bile salts, while at high concentration the citrus pectin interface possessed a uniform and thick adsorbing layer that resisted the replacement of bile salts and enabled lipase adsorption. This study has improved our understanding of the digestion of emulsion from the interface and will be useful for designing emulsion-based functional foods that can achieve targeted release.

Increased Water Viscosity Enhances Water Intake and Reduces Risk of Calcium Oxalate Stone Formation in Cats. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11072110.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine if water with increased viscosity results in increased water intake, thus lowering the risk of urolithiasis in cats. Twelve healthy adult cats were fed pre-trial standard dry maintenance food for 1 week and then randomized into two groups for the study phase. The cats continued to receive the same food but were provided either control (deionized) water or viscous (1% methylcellulose) water for two months and then switched to the other water type for two months in a cross-over study design with repeated measures. Complete blood counts, serum chemistry profiles, and urinalysis were performed at the initiation of the study and again at 1, 2, 3, and 4 months. Daily water consumption and energy intake for each cat were recorded. Body weights were assessed weekly. Cats consuming 1% methylcellulose water with increased viscosity had increased water intake (p < 0.001; 25% and 21% higher at 28 and 56 days, respectively). Increased consumption of water resulted in lower urine specific gravity (p = 0.04), serum creatinine (p = 0.02), and blood urea nitrogen (p = 0.002) concentrations (without changing serum albumin, glucose, and calcium concentrations or serum osmolality) and decreased urine calcium concentration (p = 0.01) compared with cats consuming control water. In addition, the increased water intake increased (p = 0.05) resistance to oxalate crystal formation.

Abstract
Plant-based meat analogs are likely to have different gastrointestinal fates than real meat products due to differences in their compositions and structures. Here, we compared the gastrointestinal fate of ground beef and ground beef analogs using the INFOGEST in vitro digestion model, focusing on differences in microstructure, physicochemical properties, lipid digestion, and protein digestion in different regions of the model gut. The presence of dietary fibers in the beef analogs increased their apparent shear viscosity in the gastrointestinal fluids, which may have inhibited lipid digestion in the small intestine. The proteins in the beef analogs were digested more rapidly in the stomach but less rapidly in the small intestine, which may have been due to differences in protein type (globular soy versus fibrous beef proteins), structural organization, and the presence of dietary fibers in the meat analogs.

Abstract
Food digestion may be regarded as a physiological interface between food and health. During digestion, the food matrix is broken down and the component nutrients and bioactive compounds are absorbed through a synergy of mechanical, chemical, and biochemical processes. The food matrix modulates the extent and kinetics to which nutrients and bioactive compounds make themselves available for absorption, hence regulating their concentration profile in the blood and their utilization in peripheral tissues. In this review, we discuss the structural and compositional aspects of food that modulate macronutrient digestibility in each step of digestion. We also discuss in silico modeling approaches to describe the effect of the food matrix on macronutrient digestion. The detailed knowledge of how the food matrix is digested can provide a mechanistic basis to elucidate the complex effect of food on human health and design food with improved functionality.

Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia refers to the presence of elevated concentrations of triglycerides (TG) in the bloodstream (TG >200 mg/dL). This lipid alteration is known to be associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis, contributing overall to the onset of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). Guidelines for the management of hypertriglyceridemia are based on both lifestyle intervention and pharmacological treatment, but poor adherence, medication-related costs and side effects can limit the success of these interventions. For this reason, the search for natural alternative approaches to reduce plasma TG levels currently represents a hot research field. This review article summarizes the most relevant clinical trials reporting the TG-reducing effect of different food-derived bioactive compounds. Furthermore, based on the evidence obtained from in vitro studies, we provide a description and classification of putative targets of action through which several bioactive compounds can exert a TG-lowering effect. Future research may lead to investigations of the efficacy of novel nutraceutical formulations consisting in a combination of bioactive compounds which contribute to the management of plasma TG levels through different action targets.

Abstract
Development of new sources and isolation processes has recently enhanced the production of cellulose in many different colloidal states. Even though cellulose is widely used as a functional ingredient in the food industry, the relationship between the colloidal states of cellulose and its applications is mostly unknown. This review covers the recent progress on illustrating various colloidal states of cellulose and the influencing factors with special emphasis on the correlation between the colloidal states of cellulose and its applications in food industry. The associated unique colloidal states of cellulose like high aspect ratio, crystalline structure, surface charge, and wettability not only promote the stability of colloidal systems, but also help improve the nutritional aspects of cellulose by facilitating its interactions with digestive system. Further studies are required for the rational control and improvement of the colloidal states of cellulose and producing food systems with enhanced functional and nutritional properties.

[PMID: 33067846 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.15489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2020] [Revised: 08/31/2020] [Accepted: 09/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Curcumin solid dispersions were prepared using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) to enhance water solubility of curcumin. The particle size of curcumin solid dispersions was in range from 371 to 528 nm and particles were shaped as spherical with wrinkles. The encapsulation efficiency was over 93% for all samples, and water solubility of curcumin was significantly improved to 238 µg/mL when the ratio of curcumin to HPMC was 20:80. The results of X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimeter, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that crystalline form of curcumin changed to amorphous form. Curcumin solid dispersions showed improved dissolution behavior compared to pure curcumin and the curcumin release kinetic studies were applied to find best-fitting model. This study showed a great potential of solid dispersion using HPMC as curcumin delivery system with improved water solubility and oral absorption. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Curcumin has limited applications in the food industry because of low water solubility. Dongoh water-soluble curcumin (DW-CURs) were prepared by solid dispersion method with HPMC. Our results indicated that curcumin solid dispersions improved the water solubility of curcumin and showed a sustained release, demonstrating its possibility of body application. Therefore, DW-CURs are a promising formulation for application as a functional ingredient in the food industry.

Abstract
Consumption of sufficiently high quantities of dietary fibers has been linked to a range of health benefits. Recent research, however, has shown that some dietary fibers interfere with lipid digestion, which may reduce the bioavailability of oil-soluble vitamins and nutraceuticals. For this reason, we examined the impact of a cationic polysaccharide (chitosan) on the bioaccessibility of vitamin D using the standardized INFOGEST in vitro digestion model. The vitamin D was encapsulated within an emulsion-based delivery system that contained whey protein-coated corn oil droplets. Our results showed that chitosan promoted severe droplet flocculation in the small intestine and reduced the amount of free fatty acids detected using a pH-stat method. However, a back-titration of the digested sample showed that the lipids were fully digested at all chitosan levels used (0.1-0.5%), suggesting that chitosan may have bound some of the free fatty acids released during lipid digestion. The presence of the chitosan decreased the bioaccessibility of vitamin D by about 37%, but this effect did not depend strongly on chitosan concentration (0.1-0.5%). It was hypothesized that chitosan bound to the vitamin-loaded mixed micelles and promoted their precipitation. The knowledge gained in this study might provide useful insights in designing emulsion-based delivery systems with high vitamin bioaccessibility.
