Yu H, Zhong Q, Liu Y, Guo Y, Xie Y, Zhou W, Yao W. Recent advances of ultrasound-assisted Maillard reaction. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2020; 64:104844. [PMID: 31953006 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2019.104844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2019] [Revised: 09/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/25/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Maillard reaction (MR) is one of the most important chemical reactions in the food science domain with a long history of more than 100 years. As for ultrasound-assisted MR (US-MR), it has gradually drawn attention in a recent decade. Purpose of this paper is to provide a systematic review on recent advances of US-MR in model systems, glycation of protein, and food processing. Fundamental studies on simple MR model systems (i.e. reducing sugar and amino acid) have reported a promoted generation of colored and volatile MR products (MRPs). Critical steps influenced by US and possible mechanisms have been elucidated simultaneously. Other studies focused on modification of proteins which undergoes a glycation between proteins and saccharides as the initial stage of MR. Since the MR rate is extremely low in the presence of protein and saccharide, US becomes a promising mean of promoting the glycation. As a result, a number of functional properties of glycated protein obtained by US are significantly promoted, which extend their utilization in the food industry. The rest of studies reviewed in this article are concentrated on applying US to process real foods. Many attributes changed during US-assisted processing are induced by MR. Positive aspects brought by the promoted US-MR include enhanced antioxidant capacity and organoleptic properties (e.g. desirable color, low bitterness, enhanced flavor, etc.), as well as inhibited hazards (e.g. advanced glycation end-products, acrylamide, etc.) formed in the processed foods. Meanwhile, the promoted MR by US may also inevitably bring some negative aspects to the processed foods due to unfavored yellowish/browning colors, off-flavors and hazard components.

[PMID: 31945554 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2019.104910] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2019] [Revised: 11/07/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The influence of ultrasound treatment on the subsequent glycation process of proteins is controversial. Glycation behaviors of bovine serum albumin (BSA), β-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) and β-casein (β-CN) after ultrasound pretreatment (UP) were compared by both evaluating glycation kinetics and analyzing structural changes of proteins. UP resulted in both unfolding and aggregation behavior in protein samples, which altered the accessibility of the Lys and Arg. Five cycles of UP up-regulated the glycation degree of BSA and β-Lg, possibly due to the unfolding behavior induced by UP, which exposed additional glycation sites. In contrast, 30 cycles of UP induced a dramatic increase (by 97.9 nm) in particle size of BSA, thus burying portions of glycation sites and suppressing the glycation process. Notably, UP had minimal influence on glycation kinetics of β-CN, due to its intrinsic disordered structure. Based on proteomics analysis, the preference of Lys and Arg during glycation was found to be changed by UP in BSA and β-Lg. Four, 3 and 3 unique carboxyethylated lysine residues were identified in glycated BSA after 0, 5 and 30 cycles of UP, respectively. This study suggests that the protein glycation can be affected by UP, depending on the ultrasonication duration and native structure of the protein.

Abstract
Despite most studied activities of natural biophenols rely on antioxidant properties, little clues explored their key structural components with regard to opposing action on glycation-induced aggregation. Herein, human hemoglobin (hHb)/fructose system used to decipher if structural peculiarities of two biophenols "chlorogenic acid (CGA) and curcumin (CUR)" are effective toward AGEs-bridged aggregate formation. Suppression in amyloid cross-β formation was monitored by CD spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy, ANS and AGE fluorescence. Reduction in molten globule structure of modified-Hb by CGA was corroborated with helix structure, thiol group and lysine residues content estimation for native, glycated and biophenols treated samples. ThT and Congo red assays showed the cross-β breaking properties of CGA. Molecular docking outcomes revealed the positioning of CGA/CUR is driven by "aromatic interactions" with Trp β1180 and Tyr α2540. These interactions are modulated by the structural constraints such as number of hydroxyl groups and their methylation status directing the biophenols to the amyloidogenic core. The results are applicable to formulation of small-molecule nutraceuticals for treatment of conformational diseases.

Abstract
Glycation as a type of non-enzymatic protein modification is related to aging and chronic diseases, especially diabetes. Global analysis of protein glycation will aid in a better understanding of its formation mechanism and biological significance. In this work, we comprehensively investigated protein glycation in human cells (HEK293T, Jurkat, and MCF7 cells). The current results indicated that this non-enzymatic modification was not random, and protein at the extracellular regions and the nucleus were more frequently glycated. Systematic and site-specific analysis of glycated proteins allowed us to study the effect of the primary sequences and secondary structures of proteins on glycation. Furthermore, nearly every enzyme in the glycolytic pathway was found to be glycated and a possible mechanism was proposed. Many glycation sites were also previously reported as acetylation and ubiquitination sites, which strongly suggested that this non-enzymatic modification may disturb protein degradation and gene expression. The current results will facilitate further studies of protein glycation in biomedical and clinical research.

Glycation-induced modification of tissue-specific ECM proteins: A pathophysiological mechanism in degenerative diseases. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2019; 1863:129411. [PMID: 31400438 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2019.08.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2019] [Revised: 07/29/2019] [Accepted: 08/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycation driven generation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and their patho-physiological role in human degenerative diseases has remained one of the thrust areas in the mainstream of disease biology. Glycation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins have deleterious effect on the mechanical and functional properties of tissues. Owing to the adverse pathophysiological concerns of glycation, there is a need to decipher the underlying mechanisms. SCOPE OF REVIEW AGE-modified ECM proteins affect the cell in the vicinity by altering protein structure-function, matrix-matrix or matrix-cell interaction and by activating signalling pathway through receptor for AGE. This review is intended for addressing the AGE-induced modification of tissue-specific ECM proteins and its implication in the pathogenesis of various organ-specific human ailments. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS The glycation affects the canonical cell behaviour due to alteration in the interaction of glycated ECM with receptors like integrins and discodin domain, and the signalling cues generated subsequently affect the downstream signalling pathways. Consequently, the variation of structural and functional properties of tissues due to matrix glycation helps in the initiation or progression of the disease condition. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE This review offers comprehensive knowledge about the remodelling of glycation induced ECM and tissue-specific pathological concerns. As glycation of ECM affects the normal tissues and cell behaviour, the scientific discourse may also provide cues for developing candidate drugs that may help in attenuating the adverse effects of AGEs and perhaps open a research window of tailoring novel strategies for the management of glycation induced human degenerative diseases.

Abstract
The larches, the Larix genus of plants are known as a natural source of taxifolin (dihydroquercetin), and extracts of its taxifolin rich xylem are used in dietary supplements to maintain health. In the present study, to assess biological activities of a methanol extract of the Japanese larch, Larix kaempferi (LK-ME), the effects of LK-ME on cell viability, inflammatory cytokine expression, and glycation were investigated. The effects of taxifolin which is known to be a main compound of LK-ME, and its related flavonoids, quercetin and luteolin were also examined. The results show that taxifolin exhibits lower growth inhibition activity and lesser induction activity of inflammatory cytokines in a human monocyte derived cell line, THP-1 cells, while in vitro anti-glycation activities of taxifolin were inhibiting at comparable levels to those of quercetin and luteolin. The growth inhibition and the cytokine induction activities, and the anti-glycation effects of LK-ME are assumed to have properties similar to taxifolin. The results of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis indicated that taxifolin was detected as the main peak of LK-ME at the absorbance of 280 nm, and the concentration of taxifolin was measured as 3.12 mg/ml. The actual concentration of taxifolin in LK-ME is lower than the concentration estimated from the IC50 values calculated by the results of glycation assays, suggesting that other compounds contained in LK-ME are involved in the anti-glycation activity.

Abstract
The interaction of reducing sugars with proteins leads to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGE) and reactive oxidative species (ROS). ROS peroxidise free or membrane included unsaturated fatty acids, leading to generate reactive aldehydes as advanced lipid peroxidation end products (ALE). Aldehydes from lipid peroxidation (LPO) react with proteins to cause alteration of protein structure to exacerbate complication of diseases. Here we studied serum albumin glycation in the presence and absence of liposomes as a bio-membrane model to investigate protein structural changes using various techniques including intrinsic and extrinsic fluorescence spectroscopies and electron microscopy analysis. Accordingly, serum albumin glycation and fibrillation were accelerated and intensified in the presence of liposomes through a hypothesized glycation-peroxidation loop (GPL). Together, our results shed light on the necessity of reconsidering diabetic protein glycation to make it close to physiological conditions mimicry, more importantly, proteins structural change due to diabetic glycation is intensified in the proximity of cell membranes which probably potentiates programmed cell death distinct from apoptosis.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia in diabetes causes protein glycation that leads to oxidative stress, release of cytokines, and establishment of secondary complications such as neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy. Several other metabolic disorders, stress, and inflammation generate free radicals and oxidative stress. It is essential to study whether oxidative stress independently enhances protein glycation leading to rapid establishment of secondary complications. Oxidative stress was experimentally induced using rotenone and Fenton reagent for in vivo and in vitro studies, respectively. Results showed significant increase in the rate of modification of BSA in the form of fructosamine and protein-bound carbonyls in the presence of fenton reagent. Circular dichroism studies revealed gross structural changes in the reduction of alpha helix structure and decreased protein surface charge was confirmed by zeta potential studies. Use of rotenone demonstrated enhanced AGE formation, ROS generation, and liver and kidney tissue glycation through fluorescence measurement. Similar findings were also observed in cell culture studies. Use of aminoguanidine, a protein glycation inhibitor, demonstrated reduction in these changes; however, a combination of aminoguanidine along with vitamin E demonstrated better amelioration. Thus, oxidative stress accelerates the process of protein glycation causing gross structural changes and tissue glycation in insulin-independent tissues. Use of antioxidants and protein glycation inhibitors in combination are more effective in preventing such changes and could be an effective therapeutic option for preventing establishment of secondary complications of diabetes.

Abstract
In this work, the phenolic composition of E. umbellata leaves and berries is reported. Berries were rich in flavonols, whereas leaves presented abundant flavonols and ellagitannins. Then, the enzyme-inhibitory properties, anti-glycation and antioxidant activities of E. umbellata and Sambucus lanceolata (its phenolic profile has been already established in a previous work) were tested by several in vitro assays and compared. The simulated gastrointestinal digestion resulted in a decrease on their phenolic composition. Nevertheless, both species still had the ability to inhibit aldose reductase activity and protein glycation and scavenge free radicals at the end of the process. Thus, the potential beneficial effects of E. umbellata and S. lanceolata seems to be kept to some extent after passage throughout the digestive system. Altogether, this study provides further insight into investigation of these species as dietary sources of bioactive compounds to lower the risk of type-2 diabetes and obesity.

Abstract
Carbohydrate modification of proteins adds complexity and diversity to the proteome. However, undesired carbohydrate modifications also occur in the form of glycation, which have been implicated in diseases such as diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, autoimmune diseases, and cancer. The analysis of glycated proteins is challenging due to their complexity and variability. Numerous analytical techniques have been developed that require expensive specialized equipment and complex data analysis. In this chapter, we describe two easy-to-use electrophoresis-based methods that will enable researchers to detect, identify, and analyze these posttranslational modifications. This new cost-effective methodology will aid the detection of unwanted glycation products in processed foods and may lead to new diagnostics and therapeutics for age-related chronic diseases.

Abstract
The reaction of free amino groups in proteins with reactive carbonyl species, known as glycation, leads to the formation of mixtures of products, collectively referred to as advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). These compounds have been implicated in several important diseases, but their role in pathogenesis and clinical symptoms' development is still debated. Particularly, AGEs are often associated to the formation of amyloid deposits in conformational diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and it has been suggested that they might influence the mechanisms and kinetics of protein aggregation. We here present the characterization of the products of glycation of the model protein MNEI with methylglyoxal and their effect on the protein structure. We demonstrate that, despite being an uncontrolled process, glycation occurs only at specific residues of the protein. Moreover, while not affecting the protein fold, it alters its shape and hydrodynamic properties and increases its tendency to fibrillar aggregation. Our study opens the way to in deep structural investigations to shed light on the complex link between protein post-translational modifications, structure, and stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Maintenance of seed viability is an important factor for seedling vigour and plant establishment. Lipid peroxidation mediated reactive carbonyl compounds (RCC's) and non-enzymatic modifications of proteins through Maillard and Amadori products reduce seed viability and seedling vigour. RESULTS In this study, the relevance of RCCs on genotypic variation in rice seed viability and overexpression of an aldo-ketoreductase (AKR1) enzyme that detoxify cytotoxic compounds to improve seed viability and vigour was studied. Physiological and biochemical approaches were integrated to quantify the variation in seed viability and seedling vigour in rice genotypes after exposing to ageing treatment. AKR1 was overexpressed in a susceptible rice genotype and tobacco to study the relevance of reduced RCC's on seed viability and seedling vigour. The glycation and lipid peroxidation compounds accumulated after accelerated ageing treatments in rice genotypes. The accumulation of malondialdehyde, methyl glyoxal, Maillard and Amadori products affected the seed viability and germination as they showed a significant negative relationship. The transgenic rice and tobacco seeds expressing AKR1 showed lower levels of cytotoxic compounds and glycation products that resulted in improved seed viability and seedling vigour in rice and tobacco. CONCLUSIONS The study demonstrates that, reactive cytotoxic compounds affect the seed viability during storage. Detoxification of reactive cytotoxic compounds by Aldo-keto reductases is one of the mechanisms to improve the seed longevity during storage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent epidemiological studies indicate that only 30-50% of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients are identified using glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and elevated fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels. Thus, novel biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis are urgently needed for providing early and personalized treatment. METHODS Here, we studied the glycation degrees of 27 glycation sites representing nine plasma proteins in 48 newly diagnosed male T2DM patients and 48 non-diabetic men matched for age (range 35-65 years). Samples were digested with trypsin and enriched for glycated peptides using boronic acid affinity chromatography. Quantification relied on mass spectrometry (multiple reaction monitoring) using isotope-labelled peptides as internal standard. RESULTS The combination of glycated lysine-141 of haptoglobin (HP K141) and HbA1c provided a sensitivity of 94%, a specificity of 98%, and an accuracy of 96% to identify T2DM. A set of 15 features considering three glycation sites in human serum albumin, HP K141, and 11 routine laboratory measures of T2DM, metabolic syndrome, obesity, inflammation, and insulin resistance provided a sensitivity of 98%, a specificity of 100%, and an accuracy of 99% for newly diagnosed T2DM patients. CONCLUSIONS Our studies demonstrated the great potential of glycation sites in plasma proteins providing an additional diagnostic tool for T2DM and elucidating that the combination of these sites with HbA1c and FPG could improve the diagnosis of T2DM.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MG) can react with amino acids of proteins to induce protein glycation and consequently the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). Previous studies reported that ferulic acid (FA) prevented glucose-, fructose-, and ribose-induced protein glycation. In this study, FA (0.1-1 mM) inhibited MG-induced protein glycation and oxidative protein damage in bovine serum albumin (BSA). Furthermore, FA (0.0125-0.2 mM) protected against lysine/MG-mediated oxidative DNA damage, thereby inhibiting superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical generation during lysine and MG reaction. In addition, FA did not have the ability to trap MG. Finally, FA (0.1 mM) pretreatment attenuated MG-induced decrease in cell viability and prevented MG-induced cell apoptosis in pancreatic β-cells. The results suggest that FA is capable of protecting β-cells from MG-induced cell damage during diabetes.

Abstract
Thermal treatment preserves the microbiological safety of milk, but also induces Maillard reactions modifying for example proteins. The purpose of this study was evaluating the influence of consumer behaviors (storage and heating) on protein glycation degrees in bovine milk products. Lactosylation and hexosylation sites were identified in ultra-high temperature (UHT), lactose-free pasteurized, and lactose-free UHT milk (ULF) and infant formula (IF) using tandem mass spectrometry (electron transfer dissociation). Overall, 303 lactosylated and 199 hexosylated peptides were identified corresponding to 170 lactosylation (31 proteins) and 117 hexosylation sites (25 proteins). In quantitative terms, storage increased lactosylation up to fourfold in UHT and IF and hexosylation up to elevenfold in ULF and threefold in IF. These levels increased additionally twofold when the stored samples were heated (40°C). In conclusion, storage and heating appear to influence protein glycation levels in milk at similar or even higher degrees than industrial processing.

Abstract
In this study electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight (ESI-Q-TOF) mass spectrometry was used to investigate protein glycation. The glycated species of cytochrome C, lysozyme, and β-casein formed during glycation with d-glucose were identified and monitored in binary systems heated at 70°C under dry and aqueous conditions. Cytochrome C had multiple charges in non-glycated state, primarily changing from +13 to +17 positive charges, whereas β-casein had charge states up to +30. Upon heating with glucose at 70°C in aqueous state, attachment of one glucose molecule onto proteins was observed in each charge state. However, heating in dry state caused much more glucose attachment, leading to the formation of multiple glycoforms of proteins. By using ESI-QTOF-MS technique, formation of glycated cytochrome C containing up to 12 glucose moieties were observed, while glycated species containing 6 and 8 glucose moieties were observed for lysozyme and β-casein, respectively in various heating conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) play a significant role in the development and progression of vascular complication in diabetes. Anthocyanin has been recently reported to possess antiglycating activity. This study aimed to determine whether a naturally occurring anthocyanin, cyanidin-3-rutinoside (C3R) inhibits methylglyoxal (MG) induced protein glycation and oxidative protein and DNA damage. METHODS C3R (0.125-1 mM) was incubated with bovine serum albumin and MG (1 mM) for 2 weeks. The formation of fluorescent AGEs was measured by using spectrofluorometer and thiol group content were used to detect protein oxidative damage. Gel electrophoresis was used to determine whether C3R (0.125-1 mM) reduced DNA strand breakage in a glycation model comprising lysine, MG and/or Cu(2+). The generation of superoxide anions and hydroxyl radicals were detected by the cytochrome c reduction assay and the thiobarbituric acid reactive substances assay. MG-trapping capacity was assessed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS C3R (0.25-1 mM) reduced the formation of fluorescent AGEs and depleted protein thiol groups in bovine serum albumin mediated by MG. At 1 mM C3R inhibited oxidative DNA damage in the glycation model (p < 0.05) and at 0.5-1 mM prevented Cu(2+) induced DNA strand breakage in the presence of lysine and MG. The findings showed that C3R reduced the formation of superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals during the glycation reaction of MG with lysine. C3R directly trapped MG in a concentration and time dependent manner (both p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that C3R protects against MG-induced protein glycation and oxidative damage to protein and DNA by scavenging free radicals and trapping MG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polyol pathway and protein glycation are implicated in establishing secondary complications in diabetes. Their relative contribution to the process needs to be evaluated. It is essential to understand why some aldose reductase inhibitors (ARIs) trials are successful while some have failed and to study their effect on protein glycation. METHODS Aldose reductase (AR) was assayed using xylose as substrate; protein glycation was evaluated using total and specific fluorescence, fructoseamine and protein bound carbonyl content (PCO) measurements. Long term studies were carried out on streptozotocin induced diabetic rats for evaluation of urine parameters, tissue fluorescence. Anti-cataract action was studied by lens culture studies. RESULTS Epalrestat, a commercial ARI was also found to possess potent glycation inhibitory action. Long term experiments revealed strong protein glycation with higher concentration of citronellol (ARI) demonstrating shift in glucose flux. Treatment with epalrestat and limonene revealed improved urine parameters and tissue fluorescence. Lens culture studies revealed cataract formation at higher inhibition of AR while no lens opacity was observed at lower citronellol concentration and with limonene and epalrestat. CONCLUSION Strong inhibition of AR shifts the glucose flux to protein glycation causing damage. ARIs possessing protein glycation inhibition are more useful in amelioration of secondary complications.

Abstract
This paper investigates the sensory acceptability and textural properties of leavened wheat bread and sponge cake fortified with cow protein isolates that had been denatured and glycated by thermal treatment. Defatted cowpea flour was prepared from cow pea beans and the protein isolate was prepared (CPI) and thermally denatured (DCPI). To prepare glycated cowpea protein isolate (GCPI) the cowpea flour slurry was heat treated before isolation of the protein. CPI was more susceptible to thermal denaturation than GCPI as determined by turbidity and sulphydryl groups resulting in greater loss of solubility. This is attributed to the higher glycation degree and higher carbohydrate content of GCPI as demonstrated by glycoprotein staining of SDS PAGE gels. Water absorption of bread dough was significantly enhanced by DCPI and to a larger extent GCPI compared to the control, resulting in softer texture. CPI resulted in significantly increased crumb hardness in baked bread than the control whereas DCPI or GCPI resulted in significantly softer crumb. Bread fortified with 4% DCPI or GCPI was similar to control as regards sensory and textural properties whereas 4% CPI was significantly different, limiting its inclusion level to 2%. There was a trend for higher sensory acceptability scores for GCPI containing bread compared DCPI. Whole egg was replaced by 20% by GCPI (3.5%) in sponge cake without affecting the sensory acceptability, whereas CPI and DCPI supplemented cakes were significantly different than the control.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The microbiological safety of milk is typically guaranteed by thermal treatments, such as pasteurization and ultra high temperature (UHT) treatment, whereas infant formula (IF) is often produced at even harsher conditions including a drying process. Thermal treatments have raised concerns, as they may denature proteins and initiate protein modifications. Previous studies identified already many lactosylation sites in milk and showed that the lactosylation degree of some proteins correlates to thermal treatment conditions. Here, we studied the glycation degrees of 124 lactosylation sites in 28 bovine milk proteins in raw milk, three brands of pasteurized milk, three brands of UHT milk, and five brands of IF. Whereas, the glycation degree of many lactosylation sites increased from raw milk, to pasteurized milk, UHT milk, and IF, several modification sites showed a different behavior indicating that global measures do not correctly reflect the reactivity of distinct sites. Interestingly, the glycation degrees varied considerably among the brands of UHT milk and IF indicating that specific production processes of a company have to be considered and not only the classification of milk as pasteurized or UHT. Thus, proper adjustments of the technical processes should allow reducing the lactosylation levels in both UHT milk and IF. SIGNIFICANCE It is well established that thermal treatment of milk triggers protein modifications, such as lactosylation of lysine residues in several proteins, although the extent of lactosylation has not been quantitatively compared for a broad panel of protein lactosylation sites among different commercial products. The current study extends previous reports by relatively quantifying 124 confirmed lactosylation sites in 28 bovine milk proteins including several low abundant proteins. Whereas, glycation is generally assumed to be an unspecific chemical reaction with the modification degrees depending on the protein and sugar concentrations, we could show that each protein and even each lactosylation site in a given protein is differently affected by thermal processes indicating that the global lactosylation degrees will not allow predicting the influence of a technical process on individual proteins and lactosylation sites. Additionally, we could show that brands of each milk product differ significantly in their glycation degrees with UHT milk brands for example spanning the whole range from the relatively low lactosylation degree of pasteurized milk to the rather high lactosylation degree of IF. Similar differences were obtained for IF that generally showed the highest glycation degree. The targeted quantification approach established and validated here will be useful to reveal technical processing steps that trigger individual lactosylation sites and thus can help to prevent such unwanted reactions. Even slight changes of the technical processes might allow reducing the lactosylation degree of milk proteins significantly without challenging the microbiological safety or affecting consumer behavior.

J Chromatogr A 2014; 1371:82-9. [PMID: 25456590 PMCID: PMC4254497 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2014.10.092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2014] [Revised: 10/04/2014] [Accepted: 10/24/2014] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Ultrafast affinity extraction and a multi-dimensional affinity system were developed for measuring free drug fractions at therapeutic levels. This approach was used to compare the free fractions and global affinity constants of several sulfonylurea drugs in the presence of normal human serum albumin (HSA) or glycated forms of this protein, as are produced during diabetes. Affinity microcolumns containing immobilized HSA were first used to extract the free drug fractions in injected drug/protein mixtures. As the retained drug eluted from the HSA microcolumn, it was passed through a second HSA column for further separation and measurement. Items that were considered during the optimization of this approach included the column sizes and flow rates that were used, and the time at which the second column was placed on-line with the HSA microcolumn. This method required only 1.0 μL of a sample per injection and was able to measure free drug fractions as small as 0.09-2.58% with an absolute precision of ±0.02-0.5%. The results that were obtained indicated that glycation can affect the free fractions of sulfonylurea drugs at typical therapeutic levels and that the size of this effect varies with the level of HSA glycation. Global affinity constants that were estimated from these free drug fractions gave good agreement with those predicted from previous binding studies or determined through a reference method. The same approach could be utilized with other drugs and proteins or modified binding agents of clinical or pharmaceutical interest.

Abstract
Grape skins recovered from white grape vinification processes were studied as possible anti-glycation agents. Total phenolics were characterised by the Folin Ciocalteu assay, proanthocyanidins by depolymerisation with n-butanol/HCl, flavonols by HPLC-DAD, reducing capacity by ferric ion reducing antioxidant power assay (FRAP) and anti-glycation activity by a bovine serum albumin (BSA)/fructose model system. Structural modifications of BSA were investigated by 2D isoelectric focusing sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (IEF/SDS-PAGE) and fluorescence measurements. Both pI and Mr. of BSA were modified upon glycation reaction. These changes attributable to the involvement of free amino groups in Maillard-type reactions were inhibited by the white grape skin extracts. The anti-glycation activity ranged between 250 and 711mmol aminoguanidine Eq/kg. These results raise the interest in the potential health benefits of by-products of white grape vinification that could have a secondary use as an ingredient for new functional foods targeting wellbeing of diabetic and elderly people.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and protein glycation play pivotal roles in the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus and its vascular complications. The present study aimed to investigate the anti-glycation properties of essential oils obtained from different parts of Juniperus communis subsp. hemisphaerica. The branchlets of male tree (BMT) and branchlets of female (BFT) tree, and fruits of J. communis subsp. hemisphaerica were extracted using steam distillation method. The oils were phytochemically analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Anti-glycation properties were evaluated using hemoglobin and insulin glycation assays. Overall, 18 volatile components were identified in the J. communis subsp. hemisphaerica oils, amounting to 82.1%, 100.0% and 96.4% of the BMT, BFT and fruit oils, respectively. Promising inhibitory activity was observed from all concentrations of the tested oils in the hemoglobin and insulin glycation assays. The inhibitory activities peaked to 89.9% (BFT oil; 200 μg mL(-1)) and 81.0% (BFT oil; 600 μg mL(-1)) in the hemoglobin and insulin glycation assays, respectively. The evidence from this study suggests that essential oils obtained from the fruits and branchlets of J. communis subsp. hemisphaerica possess anti-glycation properties. These activities may find implication for the prevention and treatment of diabetic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cataract is one of the major causes of a visual impairment, which eventually leads to blindness. An oxidative damage to the lens proteins is a major factor which leads to cataract formation. Therefore, we intended to study the relationship between the biochemical markers of oxidative stress and various forms of cataracts. METHODS We examined the lenses and the sera of 120 subjects who were aged 50 to 80 years, who were distributed in two groups, viz. the study group (90 patients) and the control group (30 subjects). The oxidative stress was assessed by estimating the lipid peroxidation product in the form of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), the antioxidant status by measuring the levels of vitamin E and the total antioxidant capacity (TAC). The study group patients were further divided into those with nuclear cataracts (30 patients), cortical cataracts (30 patients), and diabetic cataracts (30 patients). RESULTS In this study, it was found that the levels of TBARS in the study group were significantly high (p<0.001), whereas the TAC (p<0.001) and the vitamin E (p<0.001) levels were significantly low, both in the lenses and the blood of the study group as compared to those of the control group. CONCLUSION Thus, the present study suggests that an imbalance between the oxygen free radicals and the antioxidants may lead to lipid peroxidation in the lens. Also, the elevated levels of glucose in the diabetic cataracts lead to the auto-oxidation of glucose and a non-enzymatic glycation of the lens protein. Thereby, the high molecular weight proteins aggregate in the cataract.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Proteins in human tissues and body fluids continually undergo spontaneous oxidation and glycation reactions forming low levels of oxidation and glycation adduct residues. Proteolysis of oxidised and glycated proteins releases oxidised and glycated amino acids which, if they cannot be repaired, are excreted in urine. SCOPE OF REVIEW In this review we give a brief background to the classification, formation and processing of oxidised and glycated proteins in the clinical setting. We then describe the application of stable isotopic dilution analysis liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for measurement of oxidative and glycation damage to proteins in clinical studies, sources of error in pre-analytic processing, corroboration with other techniques - including how this may be improved - and a systems approach to protein damage analysis for improved surety of analyte estimations. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Stable isotopic dilution analysis LC-MS/MS provides a robust reference method for measurement of protein oxidation and glycation adducts. Optimised pre-analytic processing of samples and LC-MS/MS analysis procedures are required to achieve this. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Quantitative measurement of protein oxidation and glycation adducts provides information on level of exposure to potentially damaging protein modifications, protein inactivation in ageing and disease, metabolic control, protein turnover, renal function and other aspects of body function. Reliable and clinically assessable analysis is required for translation of measurement to clinical diagnostic use. Stable isotopic dilution analysis LC-MS/MS provides a "gold standard" approach and reference methodology to which other higher throughput methods such as immunoassay and indirect methods are preferably corroborated by researchers and those commercialising diagnostic kits and reagents.
