Hydrolysis and transport characteristics of tyrosol-SCFA esters in rat intestine and blood: Two-step release of tyrosol and SCFAs to enhance the beneficial effects. Food Chem 2023; 414:135710. [PMID: 36821923 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.135710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023]
Abstract
The models of rat everted gut sac and hydrolysis by rat plasma were used to clarify the hydrolysis and transport characteristics of tyrosol-SCFA esters (TYr-SEs). HPLC-UV results indicated that TYr-SEs could be hydrolyzed by intestinal lipase, which showed sustained release of SCFAs and TYr. Meanwhile, TYr-SEs and the liberated SCFAs and TYr could cross the membrane and were transported into blood circulation. TYr-SEs were further hydrolyzed by carboxylesterase in plasma. Obviously, the hydrolysis of TYr-SEs in blood also showed sustained release of SCFAs and TYr. Especially, the rates of hydrolysis and transport correlated positively with the acyl chain lengths. Besides, the above rates of the TYr-SE with a straight chain were greater than those of its isomer with a branched chain. Therefore, the above-mentioned two-step release of SCFAs and TYr clearly demonstrated that TYr-SEs would be an effective approach to enhance the beneficial health effects of SCFAs and TYr.

Abstract
The hydrophobicity of vitamin E poses transport and metabolic challenges to regulate its bioavailability and to prevent its accumulation in lipid-rich tissues such as adipose tissue, brain, and liver. Water-soluble precursors of vitamin E (α-tocopherol, αT), such as its esters with acetate (αTA), succinate (αTS), or phosphate (αTP), have increased solubility in water and stability against reaction with free radicals, but they are rapidly converted during their uptake into the lipid-soluble vitamin E. Therefore, the bioavailability of these precursors as intact molecules is low; nevertheless, at least for αTS and αTP, the recent research has revealed unique regulatory effects on signal transduction and gene expression and the modulation of cellular events ranging from proliferation, survival/apoptosis, lipid uptake and metabolism, phagocytosis, long term potentiation, cell migration, telomere maintenance, and angiogenesis. Moreover, water-soluble derivatives of vitamin E including some based on αTP are increasingly used as components of nanocarriers for enhanced and targeted delivery of drugs and other molecules (vitamins, including αT and αTP itself, vitamin D3, carnosine, caffeine, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), insulin) and cofactors such as coenzyme Q10. In this review, the chemical characteristics, transport, metabolic pathways, and molecular mechanisms of action of αTP in cells and tissues are summarized and put into perspective with its possible role in the prevention of a number of diseases.

Abstract
Vitamin E refers to a family of compounds that function as lipid-soluble antioxidants capable of preventing lipid peroxidation. Naturally occurring forms of vitamin E include tocopherols and tocotrienols. Vitamin E in dietary supplements and fortified foods is often an esterified form of α-tocopherol, the most common esters being acetate and succinate. The vitamin E esters are hydrolyzed and converted into free α-tocopherol prior to absorption in the intestinal tract. Because its functions are relevant to many chronic diseases, vitamin E has been extensively studied in respect to a variety of diseases as well as cosmetic applications. The forms of vitamin E most studied are natural α-tocopherol and the esters α-tocopheryl acetate and α-tocopheryl succinate. A small number of studies include or focus on another ester form, α-tocopheryl nicotinate, an ester of vitamin E and niacin. Some of these studies raise the possibility of differences in metabolism and in efficacy between vitamin E nicotinate and other forms of vitamin E. Recently, through metabolomics studies, we identified that α-tocopheryl nicotinate occurs endogenously in the heart and that its level is dramatically decreased in heart failure, indicating the possible biological importance of this vitamin E ester. Since knowledge about vitamin E nicotinate is not readily available in the literature, the purpose of this review is to summarize and evaluate published reports, specifically with respect to α-tocopheryl nicotinate with an emphasis on the differences from natural α-tocopherol or α-tocopheryl acetate.

Abstract
In this study we estimated how conjugation with a sugar moiety influences the spectral properties of tocopherol and relate the spectroscopic properties of glycosides to solvent properties such as viscosity and polarity. Spectroscopic properties (absorption, fluorescence, fluorescence anisotropy and fluorescence lifetime) of three dl-alpha-tocopheryl glycosides (dl-alpha-tocopheryl orthoacetate derivative and glycosides of dl-alpha-tocopherol model compounds: 2,2,5,7,8-pentamethyl-6-chromanol and Trolox) were studied in DMSO/water solution. In all investigated compounds dissolved in DMSO/water mixture the absorption and emission maxima were blue-shifted. The fluorescence lifetimes were longer compared with those obtained for the parent compounds, except for the Trolox glucoside, in which it was shorter. The observed effect is connected with an increase in the electronic energy in the ground state due to electron rearrangement in the chromanol system caused by interaction with the sugar moiety. The extent of the spectral shift is related to the sugar moiety substituted at the phenolic oxygen rather than to substitution at the 2a position in the chromanol ring. The fluorescent properties of dl-alpha-tocopheryl glucoside in organic solvents were measured. The Stokes shift was related to the orientational polarizability of the solvents. The study of viscosity suggested two different mechanisms explaining the results observed in a low- and high-viscosity environment. The results indicated the fundamental role of interactions between the chromophore and sugar moiety in a low-viscosity environment. The results obtained at high values of viscosity are discussed in terms of a frictional boundary solvent-solute interaction model.

Abstract
Vitamin E is a generic term that refers to a family of compounds that is further divided into two subgroups called tocopherols and tocotrienols. All natural forms of tocopherols and tocotrienols are potent antioxidants that regulate peroxidation reactions and controls free radical production within the body. However, it is now firmly established that many of the biological actions mediated by individual vitamin E isoforms are not dependent on their antioxidant activity. Furthermore, synthetic ether derivatives of vitamin E that no longer possess antioxidant activity also display a wide range of biological activities. One of the most intriguing therapeutic applications for natural vitamin E and vitamin E derivatives currently being investigated is their use as anticancer agents. Specific forms of vitamin E display potent apoptotic activity against a wide range of cancer cell types, while having little or no effect on normal cell function or viability. Experimental studies have also determined that the intracellular mechanisms mediating the apoptotic effects of specific vitamin E compounds display great diversity in different types of caner cells and has been found to restore multidrug resistant tumor cells sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents. These findings strongly suggest that some natural and synthetic analogues of vitamin E can be used effectively as anticancer therapy either alone or in combination to enhance the therapeutic efficacy and reduce toxicity of other anticancer agents.

Abstract
This report improves analytical procedures to investigate the behaviour of the two Vitamin E forms, alpha-tocopherol (Tol) and alpha-tocopheryl acetate (Tac), in model systems mimicking the intestinal medium. We describe how to prepare mixed micelles as vehicle for Tac and Tol and the HPLC method for their quantification in the micelles. Tac and Tol were extracted using ethanol-hexane-drying procedure, whereas the separation and detection were performed in methanol and by UV method, respectively. Both compounds were eluted in less than 4 min. In the range between 1.7 microM and 54 microM of Tac or Tol in the micelles, their recovery were 89% and 81%, respectively, with correlation coefficient over 0.99 and R.S.D. of less than 7.2% in all cases. Limits of detection and quantification for Tac and Tol in mixed micelles ranged between 1 microM and 2 microM and between 3 microM and 5 microM, respectively. The behaviours of Tac and Tol were quite different during the extraction procedure and both were influenced by the vitamin concentration and the relative volume of organic solvents.

Abstract
Our understanding of the role of vitamin E in human nutrition, health, and disease has broadened and changed over the past two decades. Viewed initially as nature's most potent lipid-soluble antioxidant (and discovered for its crucial role in mammalian reproduction) we have now come to realize that vitamin E action has many more facets, depending on the physiological context. Although mainly acting as an antioxidant, vitamin E can also be a pro-oxidant; it can even have nonantioxidant functions: as a signaling molecule, as a regulator of gene expression, and, possibly, in the prevention of cancer and atherosclerosis. Since the term vitamin E encompasses a group of eight structurally related tocopherols and tocotrienols, individual isomers have different propensities with respect to these novel, nontraditional roles. The particular beneficial effects of the individual isomers have to be considered when dissecting the physiological impact of dietary vitamin E or supplements (mainly containing only the alpha-tocopherol isomer) in clinical trials. These considerations are also relevant for the design of transgenic crop plants with the goal of enhancing vitamin E content because an engineered biosynthetic pathway may be biased toward formation of one isomer. In contrast to the tremendous recent advances in knowledge of vitamin E chemistry and biology, there is little hard evidence from clinical and epidemiologic studies on the beneficial effects of supplementation with vitamin E beyond the essential requirement.

Abstract
Two trrials were conducted to define temporal changes in plasma D-alpha-tocopherol (AT) caused by infection with Eimeria maxima in chickens that consumed either low (25 ppm) or high (225 ppm) levels of dietary DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate (VE-AC) from 1 day of age. In both trials, rates of weight gain were depressed between days 5 and 7 post-inoculation (PI) and were not influenced by the level of dietary VE-AC. Plasma AT was consistently depressed at 5 and 7 days PI in chickens consuming either level of dietary VE-AC. The pattern and degree of plasma AT depression correlated with those of plasma carotenoids. Plasma levels of NO2- + NO3- were significantly increased at 5 and 7 days PI. In trial 1, the average increase during that period was not as high in chicks consuming 225 ppm VE-AC, but in trial 2, diet had no effect on the degree of increase. Also, there were no consistent effects of dietary VE-AC on lesion scores or amount of oocysts shed. These results are in general accord with findings of earlier experiments, and we conclude that feeding high levels of VE-AC to broiler chicks from 1 day of age is not effective in mitigating the pathology, including weight gain depression and development of mucosal lesions, during E. maxima infections or in modifying immune response events associated with phagocytosis as indexed by plasma NO2- + NO3-. The likely basis for the ineffectiveness of feeding this fat-soluble form of vitamin E is that it is malabsorbed during E. maxima infection in the same manner as carotenoids and becomes less biologically available to infected tissues during the acute phase of infection.

Abstract
The role of vitamin E in cell regulation in addition to its function as an antioxidant has attracted attention. The effects of alpha-tocopherol (T) and alpha-tocopheryl succinate (TS) on transcriptional activation of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) gene and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) activation were examined. Two stable transformants were used: TR-1 cells derived from THP-1 cells transfected with a vector contains the human TNF-alpha promoter (1.4-kb) joined to the human placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) coding sequence, and B164 cells derived from the same cell line but carrying the vector containing the human beta-actin promoter (4.3-kb) as a control. The transfectants were cultured in the presence of TS, followed by stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). After stimulation, PLAP activity secreted into the culture medium was measured. TS reduced TNF-alpha transcriptional activity in a concentration-dependent manner, while no effect was observed on that of the beta-actin promoter. Gel shift assay revealed that THP-1 cells pretreated with TS and then with LPS showed inhibition of NF-kappa B activity by 43% at 50 microM versus the TS-untreated group. Since TS did not affect activator protein-1 (AP-1) activity under the same conditions, the inhibitory effect of TS on NF-kappa B activation might be specific. However, T had no effect on the results of the gel shift assay. Vitamin E transportation was analyzed by simultaneous determination of vitamin E and its derivatives using HPLC. The vitamin E recovered from culture pellets showed almost the same amounts of T and TS transferred and was recovered in unchanged form. These observations indicated that TS inhibited NF-kappa B activation and/or translocation to the nuclei in its unchanged form under the culture conditions used here. These results suggested that vitamin E is involved in signal transduction via an effect distinct from its antioxidant function. To explain the lack of activity with T, it remains to be clarified whether physiological incorporation of T occurred.

Abstract
Nine aminoalkanecarboxylic acid esters of d-alpha-tocopherol were synthesized and evaluated as potential water-soluble prodrugs suitable for parenteral administration. The hydrochloric acid salts of the esters were soluble in water. The kinetics of hydrolysis of the esters was studied in isotonic phosphate buffer, rat plasma, human plasma, and rat liver homogenate at 37 degrees C. The hydrolysis of the esters was proved to be catalyzed by liver esterases. The susceptibility of the esters to undergo liver esterase hydrolysis was affected by the structure of the amino functionality and size of the acyl moiety on the promoiety. The N-methylaminoacetyl and N,N-dimethylaminoacetyl esters of d-alpha-tocopherol were more rapidly hydrolyzed than d-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, a commercially available d-alpha-tocopheryl ester. These results suggested that the salts of the N-methylaminoacetyl and N,N-dimethylaminoacetyl esters are promising prodrug candidates of d-alpha-tocopheryl for parenteral use.

Abstract
The protective effects of phenolic antioxidants on linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH)-induced toxicity to cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells were examined. Our previous results were confirmed that for tocopherol homologs, lipophilicity and the presence of a phenolic hydroxyl group and two alkyl groups at its ortho positions are critical for protection against LOOH-induced cytotoxicity. Probucol and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) were more effective than other simple alkylated phenols. It was found that the protective effects of alkylated phenols were depended on by the presence of two alkyl groups; in particular, two tert-butyl groups, at positions ortho to a hydroxyl group and an alkyl group at the para position. Among alpha-tocopherol, 2,2,5,7,8-pentamethylchroman-6-ol, and BHT, the relative effectiveness of protection against the cytotoxicity (1.0:0.86:0.58, respectively) was inconsistent with the previously reported, relative antioxidant activity in homogeneous solution (1.0:1.2:0.004, respectively). Probably, the effectiveness of protection by phenolic antioxidants against the cytotoxicity depend primarily on their incorporation rate into cells due to their lipophilicity, secondly on their antioxidant activity, and thirdly on their orientation in biomembranes.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the bioavailability of dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate and d-alpha-tocopheryl succinate when administered to sheep in a single oral dose weekly. The sheep, five per treatment, were given a basal diet without vitamin E supplement (control) or basal diet with weekly administration of 2225 IU of dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate, 2225 IU of d-alpha-tocopheryl succinate, or 6675 IU of d-alpha-tocopheryl succinate. Increases in plasma alpha-tocopherol concentration levels over the 3-wk period of study were determined and compared. The greater availability of dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate was indicated by the significantly higher peak plasma alpha-tocopherol concentrations and the greater area under the curve produced by administration of the acetate than the succinate esters at the same dosage. Reported data on plasma alpha-tocopherol concentrations suggest that bioavailability in sheep of d-alpha-tocopheryl succinate versus dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate is 3:1.
