Distinctive activation of β-galactosidase by carboxymethylated β-glucan in vitro and mechanism study: Critical role of hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions. Food Chem 2024; 448:139082.

Abstract
β-galactosidase (lactase) is commercially important as a dietary supplement to alleviate the symptoms of lactose intolerance. This work investigated a unique activation of CMP (carboxymethylated (1 → 3)-β-d-glucan) on lactase and its mechanism by comparing it with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), an inhibitor of lactase. The results illustrated that the secondary and tertiary structures of lactase were altered and its active sites exposed after complexation with CMP, and dissociation of lactase aggregates was also observed. These changes favored better accessibility of the substrate to the active sites of lactase, resulting in a maximum increase of 60.5 % in lactase activity. Furthermore, the hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions with lactase caused by the carboxymethyl group of CMP were shown to be crucial for its activation ability. Thus, the improvement of lactase activity and stability by CMP shown here is important for the development of new products in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Development of carboxymethyl cellulose-based nanocomposite incorporated with ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by cress seed mucilage as green surfactant. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130849.

Abstract
This study aimed to enhance carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)-based films by incorporating zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) and cress seed mucilage (CSM), with a view to augmenting the physical, mechanical, and permeability properties of the resulting nanocomposite films. For the first time, CSM was exploited as a green surfactant to synthetize ZnO NPs using hydrothermal method. Seven distinct film samples were meticulously produced and subjected to a comprehensive array of analyses. The findings revealed that the incorporation of CSM/ZnO-5 % improved the physical properties of the films, demonstrating a significant reduction in moisture content and water vapor permeability (WVP). Increasing the concentration of NPs in conjunction with CSM markedly decreased the solubility of the nanocomposites by up to 56 %. The films containing CSM/ZnO showed higher tensile strength and elongation at the break values. The UV absorption of the films exhibited a substantial rise with the addition of ZnO NPs, particularly with an increased content in the presence of CSM. The thermal stability of nanocomposites containing a high concentration of CSM/ZnO exhibited an improvement compared to the control sample. In light of these results, the CMC/CSM/ZnO-5 % film emerges as a promising candidate for a biocompatible packaging material, exhibiting favorable physical characteristics.

Abstract
Development of new food packaging materials is crucial to reduce the use of single-use plastics and to limit their destructive impact on the environment. Polysaccharides provide an alternative solution to this problem. This paper summarizes and discusses recent research results on the potential of modifying polysaccharides as materials for film and coating applications. Modifications of polysaccharides significantly affect their properties, as well as their application usability. Although modifications of biopolymers for packaging applications have been widely studied, polysaccharides have attracted little attention despite being a prospective, environmentally friendly, and economically viable packaging alternative. Therefore, this paper discusses approaches to the development of biodegradable, polysaccharide-based food packaging materials and focuses on modifications of four polysaccharides, such as starch, chitosan, sodium alginate and cellulose. In addition, these modifications are presented not only in terms of the selected polysaccharide, but also in terms of specific properties, i.e. hydrophilic, barrier and mechanical properties, of polysaccharides. Such a presentation of results makes it much easier to select the modification method to improve the unsatisfactory properties of the material. Moreover, very often it happens that the applied modification improves one and worsens another property, which is also presented in this review.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) has antibacterial activity and coating-forming ability. Under the impact of noncovalent interactions, the bioactivity and functionality of CMCS may be positively affected by the coexistence of flavonoids. This study investigated the effect of a CMCS coating incorporated with flavonoids from guava (Psidium guajava L. cv. Carmine) leaf (GLF) on the refrigeration of fresh-cut apples for preservation. Compared with the CMCS group, apples treated with the CMCS-GLF coating showed better quality (weight loss, browning index, firmness), nutritional value (ascorbic acid and total phenolic content), and microbial safety during storage. The mechanism study indicated that the hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, and hydrophobic interactions between CMCS and GLF (the carboxymethyl moiety of CMCS had the highest response priority and binding strength of the interaction with -C-O of GLF) changed the surface charge distribution and microstructure of CMCS, and increased its molecular weight, particle size, viscosity, and hydrophobicity. Thus, the CMCS-GLF coating exerted better bioactivities (antibacterial and antioxidant activity), and its film showed better mechanical and barrier properties. These results revealed that the noncovalent interaction with GLF could modify the physiochemical properties of CMCS, which was beneficial to improve its bioactivity and application value in fresh fruit preservation.

Abstract
Cell microencapsulation is a more widely accepted area of biological encapsulation. In most cases, it involves fixing cells in polymer scaffolds or semi-permeable hydrogel capsules, providing the environment for protecting cells, allowing the exchange of nutrients and oxygen, and protecting cells against the attack of the host immune system by preventing the entry of antibodies and cytotoxic immune cells. Hydrogel encapsulation provides a three-dimensional (3D) environment similar to that experienced in vivo, so it can maintain normal cellular functions to produce tissues similar to those in vivo. Embedded cells can be genetically modified to release specific therapeutic products directly at the target site, thereby eliminating the side effects of systemic treatments. Cellular microcarriers need to meet many extremely high standards regarding their biocompatibility, cytocompatibility, immunoseparation capacity, transport, mechanical, and chemical properties. In this article, we discuss the biopolymer gels used in tissue engineering applications and the brief introduction of cell encapsulation for therapeutic protein production. Also, we review polymer biomaterials and methods for preparing cell microcarriers for biomedical applications. At the same time, in order to improve the application performance of cell microcarriers in vivo, we also summarize the main limitations and improvement strategies of cell encapsulation. Finally, the main applications of polymer cell microcarriers in regenerative medicine are summarized.

Abstract
Cellulose/collagen composites have been widely used in biomedicine and tissue engineering. Interfacial interactions are crucial in determining the final properties of cellulose/collagen composite. Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to gain insights into the interactions between cellulose and collagen. It has been found that the structure of collagen remained intact during adsorption. The results derived from umbrella sampling showed that (110) and ([Formula: see text]) faces exhibited the strongest affinity with collagen (100) face came the second and (010) the last, which could be attributed to the surface roughness and hydrogen-bonding linkers involved water molecules. Cellulose planes with flat surfaces and the capability to form hydrogen-bonding linkers produce stronger affinity with collagen. The occupancy of hydrogen bonds formed between cellulose and collagen was low and not significantly contributive to the binding affinity. These findings provided insights into the interactions between cellulose and collagen at the molecular level, which may guide the design and fabrication of cellulose/collagen composites.

Abstract
The non-covalent binding between flavanols and polysaccharides has impacts on their bioactivities, but the binding mechanism is less understood. This work aimed to unveil the non-covalent interactions between epicatechin gallate (ECG) and anionic carboxymethyl Poria cocos polysaccharide (CMPN) at the structural and molecular level based on the synergistic antibacterial effect between them. The results suggested that there was hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic and electrostatic interaction between ECG and CMPN, which was also supported by the results of molecular dynamics simulations. The resulting changes in physicochemical properties enhanced the antibacterial activity of the ECG-CMPN mixture. More specifically, through two-dimensional Fourier transform infrared correlation spectrum (2D-FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) analysis, COO- in CMPN carboxymethyl and CO in ECG galloyl had the highest response priority and binding strength in the interaction, allowing us to conclude the critical functional groups that affect the non-covalent interactions of polysaccharide and flavanols and their bioactivities.

Abstract
Collagen fibril hydrogel (CH), with controllable micro-structure, sufficient modifying sites and excellent biocompatibility, has received widely attention in the regulation of biomacromolecules. Herein, dialdehyde carboxymethyl cellulose (DCMC) in different -CHO contents and molecular weights demonstrated two types of cross-linking behaviors to CH, 'limited and long-range' or 'multiple and short range' cross-linking, corresponding to -CHO content ranged from 0 to 53 % and 53- 90 %, respectively. In regard of structure, non-destroying effect of DCMC on collagen was supported by FT-IR and XRD analysis. CH cross-linked by DCMC (CH-DC) showed declining porosity and aggregating fibrils as -CHO content of DCMC rising. In regard of physicochemical properties, DCMC with >53 % -CHO strengthened the hydrophilicity, thermal stability and degradation resistance of CH-DC. Also, there was 110 % growth on gel strength, 86 Pa enhancements on storage modulus, and 4.6 times decrease on the swelling ratio of CH-DC. Results indicated that DCMC with 79 % -CHO remarkably improved the physicochemical properties of CH via developing sufficient Schiff-base bonds with collagen fibril in a short distance. This study distinguished two patterns of DCMC cross-linking from physicochemical view. In other words, DCMC is potential to meet the requirement of protein-based materials with different expectations by adjusting its -CHO content and molecular weight.

Abstract
Collagen is essential as a physiological material in wound healing, so it is often used in wound management, mainly as a lyophilisate. Collagen also has excellent film-forming properties; unfortunately, however, its utilisation as a film wound dressing is limited because of its weak mechanical properties, especially in its wet state. For this reason, modifications or combinations with different materials are investigated. The combination of collagen with partially modified microfibrillar carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), which has not previously been described, provided a new possibility for strengthening collagen films and was the aim of this work. The collagen–CMC films based on three types of collagens, two plasticizers and two collagen. Plasticiser ratios were prepared using the solvent casting method; partially modified CMC served here as both a film-forming agent and a filler, without compromising the transparency of the films. The presence of microfibrils was confirmed microscopically by SEM. Organoleptic and physicochemical evaluation, especially in terms of practical application on wounds, demonstrated that all the samples had satisfactory properties for this purpose even after wetting. All the films retained acidic pH values even after 24 h, with a maximum of 6.27 ± 0.17, and showed a mild degree of swelling, with a maximum of about 6 after 24 h.

Huang LJ, Lee WJ, Chen YC. Bio-Based Hydrogel and Aerogel Composites Prepared by Combining Cellulose Solutions and Waterborne Polyurethane. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14010204. [PMID: 35012224 PMCID: PMC8747299 DOI: 10.3390/polym14010204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2021] [Revised: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 12/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydrogel composites can be prepared from cellulose-based materials and other gel materials, thus combining the advantages of both kinds of material. The aerogel, porous material formed after removing the water in the hydrogel, can maintain the network structure. Hydrogel and aerogel have high application potential. However, low mechanical strength and weight loss of cellulose hydrogel due to the water dehydration/absorption limit the feasibility of repeated use. In this study, cellulose hydrogels were prepared using microcrystalline cellulose (MC), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) as raw materials. Waterborne polyurethane (WPU) was added during the preparation process to form cellulose/WPU composite hydrogel and aerogel. The influence of the cellulose type and WPU addition ratio on the performance of hydrogel and aerogel were investigated. The results show that the introduction of WPU can help strengthen and stabilize the structure of cellulose hydrogel, reduce weight loss caused by water absorption and dehydration, and improve its reusability. The mixing of cellulose and WPU at a weight ratio of 90/10 is the best ratio to make the cellulose/WPU composite aerogel with the highest water swelling capacity and heat resistance.

Abstract
Antibacterial composite films were produced from carboxymethyl cellulose-gelatin (CMC-Gel) blend with different concentration of ε-polylysine (ε-PL) and their physical and chemical properties were characterized. Compared with the control CMC-Gel film, the functionalized films had almost indistinguishable crystalline type, thickness, tensile strength, and elongation at break, however, poor water vapor barrier properties. The results showed that the ε-PL was well incorporated into CMC-Gel matrix by electrostatic interaction, as the changes of absorption peaks in the Fourier transform infrared spectrometer and the increase of glass transition temperature in differential scanning calorimeter. The films containing ε-PL showed excellent antibacterial activity against S. aureus, B. subtilis, E. coli and P. aeruginosa. In the composting experiment, the films become degraded on the seventh day, and further degraded with the growth of molds over time. The present results showed that the active films could be a potential material for food packaging.

Abstract
On this basis, a novel recombinant human-like collagen (RHLC)/silk fibroin scaffold material with high porosity and controllable aperture was prepared. The compatibility of osteoblasts (OB) with the blends was tested in vitro. The morphology, adhesion and growth of scaffold cells were observed by scanning electron microscope and laser confocal microscope. Extensive measurements, including 3-[4, 5-dimethylthiazole-2-acyl]-2, 5-diphenyl tetrabrominate assays, intracellular total protein content, and alkaline phosphatase activity assays were performed after 7 days of culture. Survival and protein content increased in RHLC/fibroin stents. LSCM and SEM results confirmed that the cells grew better in the mixed scaffolds than in the pure silk scaffolds, and showed that the cells were easy to adhere and diffuse in the RHLC/silk scaffolds. RHLC/silk fibroin scaffolds are promising biomaterials for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Abstract
Collagen, as a thermal-sensitive protein, is the most abundant structural protein in animals. Native collagen has been widely applied in various fields due to its specific physicochemical and biological properties. The beneficial properties would disappear with the collapse of the unique triple helical structure during heating. Understanding thermal stability of collagen is of great significance for practical applications. Previous studies have shown the thermal stability would be affected by the different sources, extraction methods, solvent systems in vitro and modified methods. Accordingly, the factors affecting thermal stability of collagen are discussed in detail in this review.

Abstract
Abstract
The dissolution of collagen in ionic liquids (ILs) was highly dependent on the polarity of ILs, which was influenced by their sorts and concentrations. Herein, the solubility and dispersion degree of collagen in two sorts of ILs, namely 1-ethyl-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM][BF4]) with low polarity and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([EMIM][Ac]) with high polarity in a concentration range from 10% to 70% at 10 °C were investigated. When 150 mg of collagen was added to 30 mg of ILs, the minimum soluble collagen concentration was 0.02 mg/mL in 70% [EMIM][BF4] with lowest polarity and the maximum was 3.57 mg/mL in 70% [EMIM][Ac] with highest polarity, which indicates that soluble collagen and insoluble collagen fibers were both present. For insoluble collagens, differential scanning calorimetry showed that the thermal-stability was weakened when increasing the ILs concentration and polarity, and the fiber arrangement was looser with a more uniform lyophilized structure, observed by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. For soluble collagens, electrophoresis patterns and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that no polypeptide chain degradation occurred during dissolution, but the thermal denaturation temperature decreased by 0.26 °C~ 7.63 °C with the increase of ILs concentrations, measured by ultra-sensitive differential scanning calorimetry. Moreover, the aggregation of collagen molecules was reduced when ILs polarity was increased as determined by fluorescence measurements and dynamic light scattering, which resulted in an increased loose fiber arrangement observed by atomic force microscopy. If the structural integrity of collagen needs to be retained, then the ILs sorts and concentrations should be considered.

Abstract
Scar formation in severe burn injury is a major health concern. Herein, we developed a hybrid collagen scaffold with an incorporated ZnO-curcumin nanocomposite, which facilitates scarless wound healing. Biocompatibility and hemocompatibility studies unveiled that the hybrid scaffold is apt for in vivo wound healing studies. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses demonstrate that the hybrid scaffold accelerated scarless burn wound healing in albino rats owing to the ZnO-curcumin nanocomposite induced up-regulation of angiogenesis and TGF-β3 expression. The semi-quantitatively measured scar elevation index of the hybrid scaffold-treated animals is on a par with that of the unwounded or normal skin. The studies suggest that the prepared hybrid biomaterial could be a potential candidate for scarless healing in severe burn injuries.

Abstract
The effect of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) on the fibril formation of collagen in vitro was studied by turbidity measurements and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The kinetics curves of fibril formation indicated that the rate of collagen fibrillogenesis was decreased with the addition of CMC, meanwhile the final turbidity was obviously increased as the CMC/collagen ratio reached 30%. The AFM images of collagen-CMC solutions showed that the number of nucleation sites of collagen fibrillogenesis was significantly increased with the presence of CMC, while the diameter of immature collagen fibrils was obviously decreased. Moreover, the thermal stability of collagen fibril hydrogels was obviously improved with the presence of CMC. In addition, the morphologies of collagen fibrils observed by AFM revealed that the adjacent fibril segments or fibrils were intertwisted and even tightly merged, probably due to the hydrogen bonding and molecular entanglement interactions between CMC and collagen molecules.

Abstract
Four carboxymethyl celluloses (CMCs) differing in molecular weight (MW) and degree of substitution (°DS) were initially characterized in NaCl solution (0.1 M) and on properties of emulsion-type sausage models. The impact of the different CMCs (0-2 wt%) on the rheological behavior and firmness of an emulsion-type sausage models containing 1.8wt% NaCl was studied. Rheology (unheated/heated) and firmness (heated) showed an increasing effect with increasing CMC concentrations. Addition of>1wt% CMC led to a decrease in storage modulus of the unheated/heated batter and to a decrease in firmness of heated independent of the CMC-type used. CLSM revealed that high amounts of CMCs prevented formation of a coherent protein matrix. Water-binding capacity indicated that CMC contributed to the water-retention capability of sausage batters. Small differences between the CMCs were observed using various °DS and similar MW. Results indicate that the addition of low CMC concentrations (≤0.5wt%) may help to reduce fat content.

Abstract
Over the past several years there has been an increased number of applications of cellulosic materials in many sectors, including the food industry, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. However, to date, there are few studies investigating the potential adverse effects of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). The objective of this study was to determine long-term outcomes on the male reproductive system of mice upon repeated pharyngeal aspiration exposure to CNC. To achieve this, cauda epididymal sperm samples were analyzed for sperm concentration, motility, morphological abnormalities, and DNA damage. Testicular and epididymal oxidative damage was evaluated, as well as histopathology examination of testes. In addition, changes in levels of testosterone in testes and serum and of luteinizing hormone (LH) in serum were determined. Three months after the last administration, CNC exposure significantly altered sperm concentration, motility, cell morphology, and sperm DNA integrity. These parameters correlated with elevated proinflammatory cytokines levels and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in testes, as well as oxidative stress in both testes and epididymis. Exposure to CNC also produced damage to testicular structure, as evidenced by presence of interstitial edema, frequent dystrophic seminiferous tubules with arrested spermatogenesis and degenerating spermatocytes, and imbalance in levels of testosterone and LH. Taken together, these results demonstrate that pulmonary exposure to CNC induces sustained adverse effects in spermatocytes/spermatozoa, suggesting male reproductive toxicity.
