Abstract
β-casein is the second most abundant form of casein in milk. Changes in amino acid sequence at specific positions in the primary structure of β-casein in milk will produce gene mutations that affect the physicochemical properties of dairy products and the hydrolysis site of digestive enzymes. The screening method of β-casein allele frequency detection in dairy products also has attracted the extensive attention of scientists and farmers. The A1 and A2 β-casein is the two usual mutation types, distinguished by histidine and proline at position 67 in the peptide chain. This paper summarizes the effects of A1 and A2 β-casein on the physicochemical properties of dairy products and evaluates the effects on human health, and the genotyping methods were also concluded. Impressively, this review presents possible future opportunities and challenges for the promising field of A2 β-casein, providing a valuable reference for the development of the functional dairy market.

Biomolecules 2024; 14:690. [PMID: 38927093 PMCID: PMC11201611 DOI: 10.3390/biom14060690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Special attention is given to cow's milk and its variants, with ongoing discussions about health-related impacts primarily focusing on the A1 variant in contrast to the A2 variant. The difference between these variants lies in a single amino acid alteration at position 67 of β-casein. This alteration is presumed to make the A1 variant more susceptible to enzymatic breakdown during milk digestion, leading to an increased release of the peptide β-casomorphin-7 (BCM-7). BCM-7 is hypothesized to interact with µ-opioid receptors on immune cells in humans. Although BCM-7 has demonstrated both immunosuppressive and inflammatory effects, its direct impact on the immune system remains unclear. Thus, we examined the influence of A1 and A2 milk on Concanavalin A (ConA)-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), as well as the effect of experimentally digested A1 and A2 milk, containing different amounts of free BCM-7 from β-casein cleavage. Additionally, we evaluated the effects of pure BCM-7 on the proliferation of ConA-stimulated PBMCs and purified CD4+ T cells. Milk fundamentally inhibited PBMC proliferation, independent of the β-casein variant. In contrast, experimentally digested milk of both variants and pure BCM-7 showed no influence on the proliferation of PBMCs or isolated CD4+ T cells. Our results indicate that milk exerts an anti-inflammatory effect on PBMCs, regardless of the A1 or A2 β-casein variant, which is nullified after in vitro digestion. Consequently, we deem BCM-7 unsuitable as a biomarker for food-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Ovomucoid is the immune-dominant allergen in the egg white of hens. Due to its structure based on nine disulfide bonds as well as its resistance to heat and enzymatic hydrolysis, the allergenicity of this food protein is difficult to decrease by technological processes. We sought to reduce its allergenicity through the Maillard reaction. The unfolding of ovomucoid with L-cysteine-mediated reduction was used to increase accessibility to conformational and linear epitopes by modifying the secondary and tertiary structures of the allergen. Glycation with different saccharides revealed the beneficial effect of maltose glycation on the IgG-binding capacity reduction. By determining the better glycation conditions of unfolded ovomucoid, we produced ovomucoid with reduced IgE binding capacity due to the glycation sites (K17, K112, K129, and K164) on epitopes. Moreover, after simulated infant and adult gastrointestinal digestion, the unfolded plus glycated ovomucoid showed higher ABTS˙+ scavenging activity, O2˙- scavenging activity, ˙OH scavenging activity, Fe2+ chelating activity, and a FRAP value; in particular, for ˙OH scavenging activity, there was a sharp increase of more than 100%.

Abstract
Plasma gel (PG) is a blood-derived biomaterial that can be prepared by heating or chemical cross-linking without the aid of intrinsic coagulation activity and has gradually been applied in the field of esthetic surgery. To explore the applicability of PG in regenerative therapy or tissue engineering, in this study, we focused on the advantages of the heating method and verified the retention capacity of the resulting PG for polyphosphate (polyP), a polyanion that contributes to hemostasis and bone regeneration. Pooled platelet-poor plasma (PPP) was prepared from four healthy male adult donors, mixed with synthetic polyP, and heated at 75 °C for 10 or 30 min to prepare PG in microtubes. The PG was incubated in PBS at 37 °C, and polyP levels in the extra-matrix PBS were determined by the fluorometric method every 24 h. The microstructure of PG was examined using scanning electron microscopy. In the small PG matrices, almost all of the added polyP (~100%) was released within the initial 24 h. In contrast, in the large PG matrices, approximately 50% of the polyP was released within the initial 24 h and thereafter gradually released over time. Owing to its simple chemical structure, linear polyP cannot be theoretically retained in the gel matrices used in this study. However, these findings suggest that thermally prepared PG matrices can be applied as carriers of polyP in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Epidemiological evidence supports an association between cow’s milk consumption and the risk of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma worldwide. This narrative review intends to elucidate the potential impact of milk-related agents, predominantly milk-derived exosomes (MDEs) and their microRNAs (miRs) in lymphomagenesis. Upregulation of PI3K-AKT-mTORC1 signaling is a common feature of DLBCL. Increased expression of B cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) and suppression of B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein 1 (BLIMP1)/PR domain-containing protein 1 (PRDM1) are crucial pathological deviations in DLBCL. Translational evidence indicates that during the breastfeeding period, human MDE miRs support B cell proliferation via epigenetic upregulation of BCL6 (via miR-148a-3p-mediated suppression of DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) and miR-155-5p/miR-29b-5p-mediated suppression of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AICDA) and suppression of BLIMP1 (via MDE let-7-5p/miR-125b-5p-targeting of PRDM1). After weaning with the physiological termination of MDE miR signaling, the infant’s BCL6 expression and B cell proliferation declines, whereas BLIMP1-mediated B cell maturation for adequate own antibody production rises. Because human and bovine MDE miRs share identical nucleotide sequences, the consumption of pasteurized cow’s milk in adults with the continued transfer of bioactive bovine MDE miRs may de-differentiate B cells back to the neonatal “proliferation-dominated” B cell phenotype maintaining an increased BLC6/BLIMP1 ratio. Persistent milk-induced epigenetic dysregulation of BCL6 and BLIMP1 expression may thus represent a novel driving mechanism in B cell lymphomagenesis. Bovine MDEs and their miR cargo have to be considered potential pathogens that should be removed from the human food chain.

Abstract
This research communication relates to the hypothesis that the consumption of raw or unprocessed cow's milk contributes to lowered prevalence of allergies. Thermal pasteurization of bovine milk can result in denaturation of minor whey proteins and loss of their bioactivity. Denaturation of bovine serum albumin (BSA), immunoglobulin G (IgG) and lactoferrin (LF) in skim milk was studied under different temperature (72, 75 or 78°C) and time (0-300 s) combinations. Sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results revealed that denaturation of all 3 proteins occurred at 72°C and progressed with increase in temperature and holding time. About 59% of LF and 12% of IgG denatured under high-temperature short-time (72°C/ 15 s) pasteurization, while BSA was least impacted. To assess modulation of milk immunogenicity, secretion of selected T helper (Th)-type cytokines by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was studied in vitro in response to different concentrations of BSA (0.4-1.0 mg/ml) and IgG (0.8-1.6 mg/ml) in unheated skim milk. Addition of IgG at 1.6 mg/ml induced a prominent Th1-skewed cytokine profile that may not trigger a Th2-skewed allergic reaction. BSA did not appear to modulate milk immunogenicity to any significant extent.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and chlortetracycline (CTC) interactions with the allergenic milk protein casein (CAS) were here evaluated simulating food conditions. The antibiotics assessed interact with CAS through static quenching and form non-fluorescent complexes. At 30 °C, the binding constant (Kb) varied from 0.05 to 1.23 × 106 M-1. Tetracycline interacts with CAS preferably through electrostatic forces, while oxytetracycline and chlortetracycline interactions occur by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The interaction process is spontaneous, and the magnitude of interaction based on Kb values, followed the order: TC < CTC < OTC. The distances between the donor (protein) and the receptors (TC, OTC, and CTC) were determined by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) and varied from 3.67 to 4.08 nm. Under natural feeding conditions, the citrate decreased the affinity between TC and CAS; a similar effect was observed for OTC in the presence of Ca(II), Fe(III) and lactose. Synchronized and three-dimensional (3D) fluorescence studies indicated alterations in the original protein conformation due to the interaction process, which may influence allergenic processes. In addition, complexation with CAS modulated the antimicrobial activity of CTC against S. aureus, demonstrated that the interaction process possibly alters the biological properties of antibiotics and the own protein, in the food conditions.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
