Abstract
Mustard seeds belong to the food category of mandatory labelling due to the severe reactions they can trigger in allergic patients. However, the mechanisms underlying allergic sensitization to mustard seeds are poorly understood. The aim of this work is to study type 2 immune activation induced by the mustard seed major allergen Sin a1 via the intestinal mucosa, employing an in vitro model mimicking allergen exposure via the intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Sin a1 was isolated from the total protein extract and exposed to IEC, monocyte derived dendritic cells (DCs) or IEC/DC co-cultures. A system of consecutive co-cultures was employed to study the generic capacity of Sin a1 to induce type 2 activation leading to sensitization: IEC/DC, DC/T-cell, T/B-cell and stem cell derived mast cells (MCs) derived from healthy donors. Immune profiles were determined by ELISA and flow cytometry. Sin a1 activated IEC and induced type-2 cytokine secretion in IEC/DC co-culture or DC alone (IL-15, IL-25 and TSLP), and primed DC induced type 2 T-cell skewing. IgG secretion in the T-cell/B-cell phase was enhanced in the presence of Sin a1 in the first stages of the co-culture. Anti-IgE did not induce degranulation but promoted IL-13 and IL-4 release by MC primed with the supernatant from B-cells co-cultured with Sin a1-IEC/DC or -DC primed T-cells. Sin a1 enhanced the release of type-2 inflammatory mediators by epithelial and dendritic cells; the latter instructed generic type-2 responses in T-cells that resulted in B-cell activation, and finally MC activation upon anti-IgE exposure. This indicates that via activation of IEC and/or DC, mustard seed allergen Sin a1 is capable of driving type 2 immunity which may lead to allergic sensitization.

Jung SY, Lee SY, Choi DW, See HJ, Kwon DA, Do JR, Shon DH, Shin HS. Skullcap (Scutellaria Baicalensis) Hexane Fraction Inhibits the Permeation of Ovalbumin and Regulates Th1/2 Immune Responses. Nutrients 2017; 9:nu9111184. [PMID: 29143798 PMCID: PMC5707656 DOI: 10.3390/nu9111184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2017] [Revised: 10/11/2017] [Accepted: 10/23/2017] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis) is well known for its anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects. In our previous study, we found that skullcap could inhibit allergen permeation and regulate Th1/2 immune balance. To reveal the key fractions and components of skullcap, we fractionated skullcap extract into five fractions: hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water fraction. Among these fractions, the hexane fraction significantly suppressed the production of Th2-mediated cytokines (Interleukin (IL)-4, 5, 10 and 13) and increased Th1-mediated cytokines (Interferon (IFN)-γ and IL-12). Furthermore, the hexane fraction inhibited the permeation of ovalbumin (OVA), used as an allergen, across the intestinal epithelial cell monolayer. To confirm the active compounds in the hexane fraction, fatty acids were analyzed. Linoleic acid (LA, C18:2 (>59.7%)) was identified as the most important fatty acid in the skullcap hexane fraction. LA significantly suppressed IL-4 production and increased IFN-γ secretion, as well as inhibiting OVA permeation. Thus, LA significantly diminished the permeation of allergen by enhancing intestinal barrier function and regulated allergic responses to maintain Th1/Th2 immune balance.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the cytotoxicity of dried aqueous extracts from Thymus serpyllum (ExTs), Thymus vulgaris (ExTv), Majorana hortensis (ExMh), and Mentha piperita (ExMp), and the phenolic compounds caffeic acid (CA), rosmarinic acid (RA), lithospermic acid (LA), luteolin-7-O-glucuronide (Lgr), luteolin-7-O-rutinoside (Lr), eriodictiol-7-O-rutinoside (Er), and arbutin (Ab), on two human breast cancer cell lines: Adriamycin-resistant MCF-7/Adr and wild-type MCF-7/wt. In the MTT assay, ExMh showed the highest cytotoxicity, especially against MCF-7/Adr, whereas ExMp was the least toxic; particularly against MCF-7/wt cells. RA and LA exhibited the strongest cytotoxicity against both MCF-7 cell lines, over 2-fold greater than CA and Lgr, around 3-fold greater than Er, and around 4- to 7-fold in comparison with Lr and Ab. Except for Lr and Ab, all other phytochemicals were more toxic against MCF-7/wt, and all extracts exhibited higher toxicity against MCF-7/Adr. It might be concluded that the tested phenolics exhibited more beneficial properties when they were applied in the form of extracts comprising their mixtures.

Abstract
Two effective cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibitors were isolated from tarragon, Artemisia dracunculus. Their structures were spectroscopically identified as 2E,4E-undeca-2,4-diene-8,10-diynoic acid isobutylamide (1) and 2E,4E-undeca-2,4-diene-8,10-diynoic acid piperidide (2). Both compounds had dose-dependent inhibitory effects on CYP3A4 activity with IC50 values of 10.0 ± 1.3 µM for compound 1 and 3.3 ± 0.2 µM for compound 2, and exhibited mechanism-based inhibition. This is the first reported isolation of effective CYP inhibitors from tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus) purchased from a Japanese market.

Abstract
AIM OF THE STUDY The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the acute diuretic activity of continuous intravenous infusion of an aqueous extract of the seed of Coriandrum sativum L. Apiaceae (coriander) in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS The aqueous extract of coriander seed was administered by continuous intravenous infusion (120 min) at two doses (40 and 100mg/kg) to anesthetized Wistar rats. Furosemide (10mg/kg), a standard diuretic was used as the reference drug. Excretion of water and electrolytes (sodium, potassium and chloride) in urine was measured, and glomerular filtration rate (equal to creatinine clearance) was determined. RESULTS The crude aqueous extract of coriander seeds increased diuresis, excretion of electrolytes, and glomerular filtration rate in a dose-dependent way; furosemide was more potent as a diuretic and saluretic. The mechanism of action of the plant extract appears to be similar to that of furosemide. CONCLUSIONS The aqueous extract of coriander seed possesses diuretic and saluretic activity, thus, validating the use of coriander as a diuretic plant in Moroccan pharmacopoeia.

Abstract
Chromatographic techniques (HPLC and HPTLC) were used for qualitative and quantitative determination of eriocitrin, luteolin 7-O-rutinoside, luteolin 7-O-beta-glucuronide, lithospermic acid, rosmarinic acid, and methyl rosmarinate together with other known compounds in commercial herbal teas from the Lamiaceae family: peppermint leaf (Menthae piperitae folium), melissa leaf (Melissae folium), and sage leaf (Salviae officinalis folium). Contents of analyzed compounds in infusions, the most popular forms, were established using a C18 column with acetonitrile-water-formic acid as a mobile phase. The HPLC method was validated for linearity, precision, and accuracy. Luteolin 7-O-beta-glucuronide and lithospermic acid were identified as new Mentha x piperita compounds. The investigated herbal teas delivered polyphenols in high amounts, up to 182.2 mg for the infusion of one peppermint tea bag.

Abstract
This paper reviews the in vitro digestion models developed to assess the stability digestion of food allergens, as well as the factors derived from the methodology and food structure that may affect the assay results. The adequacy of using the digestion stability of food allergens as a criterion for assessing potential allergenicity is also discussed. Data based on the traditional pepsin digestibility test in simulated gastric fluid are discussed in detail, with special attention to the influence of the pH and pepsin: allergen ratio in the pepsinolysis rate. This review points out the importance of using physiologically relevant in vitro digestion systems for evaluating digestibility of allergens. This would imply the sequential use of digestive enzymes in physiological concentrations, simulation of the stomach/small intestine environment (multi-phase models) with addition of surfactants such as phospholipids or bile salts, as well as the consideration of the gastrointestinal transit and the effect of the food matrices on the allergen digestion and subsequent absorption through the intestinal mucosa. In vitro gastrointestinal digestion protocols should be preferably combined with immunological assays in order to elucidate the role of large digestion-resistant fragments and the influence of the food matrix on the stimulation of the immune system.

Abstract
Tryptophan was isolated from rat feces as an active compound against ovalbumin permeation in an in vitro Caco-2 cell model. Tryptophan dose-dependently inhibited ovalbumin permeation with accompanying increase in transepithelial electric resistance, and its inhibitory activity reached a plateau at 10 mM. Brown Norway rats were sensitized by intragastric administration of ovalbumin together with or without tryptophan. Antibody levels specific to ovalbumin in the sera and proliferative responses of spleen mononuclear cells to ovalbumin were significantly lower in rats administered ovalbumin plus tryptophan than those administered ovalbumin alone. These results suggest that tryptophan suppresses oral sensitization to ovalbumin, probably via suppression of ovalbumin absorption from the intestinal tract.

Abstract
A method is proposed to produce a foodstuff that inhibits allergen absorption through the intestinal tract. Defatted black sesame (Sesamum indicum) seeds as a starting material were hydrolyzed with a crude preparation of trypsin at 40 degrees C and pH 8 for 3 hrs while gently stirring to generate an active peptide. The resulting hydrolysate was heated to inactivate the trypsin and make the active components soluble. An extract was obtained by centrifugation and then freeze-dried. Ser-Asn-Ala-Leu-Val-Ser-Pro-Asp-Trp-Ser-Met-Thr-Gly-His (compound 1) as an active peptide, and sesamino1 2'-O-beta-glucopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-[beta-glucopyranosyl(1-->6)]-O-beta-glucopyranoside (compound 2) and sesamino1 2'-O-beta-glucopyranosyl (1-->2)-O-beta-glucopyranoside (compound 3) were identified as active lignan glycosides in an in vitro model by using Caco-2 cells. Compound 1 was active at 10(-7) M and compounds 2 and 3 at 10(-5) M.
