Optimal and sustainable production of tailored fish protein hydrolysates from tuna canning wastes and discarded blue whiting: Effect of protein molecular weight on chemical and bioactive properties.

[PMID: 38815836 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
Thousands tons of discards of blue whiting (BW) and tuna heads (YT) by-products are generated each year in Europe. BW is the species most discarded by European fishing fleet and, in some canning factories, YT are processed for the retrieval of oil rich in omega-3, but producing a huge amount of solid remains and effluents disposal as wastes. The development of optimal and sustainable processes for both substrates is mandatory in order to reach clean solutions under the circular economy precepts. This work focused on the mathematical optimization of the production of tailored fish protein hydrolysates (FPH), from blue whiting and tuna residues, in terms of controlling average molecular weights (Mw) of proteins. For the modeling of the protein depolymerization time-course, a pseudo-mechanistic model was used, which combined a reaction mechanistic equation affected, in the kinetic parameters, by two non-lineal equations (a first-order kinetic and like-Weibull formulae). In all situations, experimental data were accurately simulated by that model achieving R2 values higher than 0.96. The validity of the experimental conditions obtained from modeling were confirmed performing productions of FPH at scale of 5 L-reactor, without pH-control in most of cases, at the different ranges of Mw selected (1-2 kDa, 2-5 kDa and 5-10 kDa). The results showed that FPH from BW with lower Mw led to a remarkable yield of production (12 % w/w of substrate), largest protein contents (77 % w/w of BW hydrolysate), greatest in vitro digestibility (>95 %), highest essential amino acid presence (43 %) and the best antioxidant (DPPH = 62 %) and antihypertensive (IC50-ACE = 80 mg/L) properties. Our results prove that the proposed procedure to produce sustainable FPH, with specific Mw characterisitics, could be extended to other fish waste substrates. Tailored FPH may have the potential to serve as valuable ingredients for functional foods and high-quality aquaculture feed.

Abstract
Low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate (LMCS) has attention for enhanced bioavailability and bioactivity compared to native CS. We optimized H2O2/ ascorbic acid (Vc) degradation conditions to prepare LMCS from chicken, bovine, and shark cartilages. Degradation kinetics models and chemical composition data of LMCS showed the GlcA residues of chondroitin-4-sulfate (CSA) may be preferentially attacked. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) indicated that the CH of GlcA in CS was broken through a hydrogen abstraction reaction to break the β-(1 → 3) bond and form the hexendioic acid product. Standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that the energy required for the hydrogen abstraction from the C1-H bond in GlcA was lower than that of GalNAc. Molecular dynamics (MD) showed that CSA was more likely to interact with hydroxyl radicals (·OH) than non-sulfated chondroitin (CSO) and chondroitin-6-sulfate (CSC). These results provide guidance for producing LMCS.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis is the most common type of osteoporosis. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) has been successfully employed as food supplement against osteoarthritis, while the therapeutic potential on postmenopausal osteoporosis is little explored. In this study, CS oligosaccharides (CSOs) were enzymatically prepared through the lysis of CS by a chondroitinase from Microbacterium sp. Strain. The alleviating effects of CS, CSOs and Caltrate D (a clinically used supplement) on ovariectomy (OVX) - induced rat's osteoporosis were comparatively investigated. Our data showed that the prepared CSOs was basically unsaturated CS disaccharide mixture of ∆Di4S (53.1%), ∆Di6S (27.7%) and ∆Di0S (17.7%). 12 weeks' intragastric administration of Caltrate D (250 mg/kg/d), CS or CSOs (500 mg/kg/d, 250 mg/kg/d, 125 mg/kg/d) could obviously regulate the disorder of serum indices, recover the mechanical strength and mineral content of bone, improve the cortical bones' density and the number and length of trabecular bones in OVX rats. Both CS and CSOs in 500 mg/kg/d and 250 mg/kg/d could restore more efficiently the serum indices, bone fracture deflection and femur Ca than Caltrate D. As compared with CS at the same dosage, CSOs exhibited a more significant alleviating effect. These findings suggested that there was great potential of CSOs as daily interventions for delaying the progression of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
This study aimed to separate chondroitin sulfate (CS) from the heads of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) and yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares), by-products derived from canned tuna processing, via a biological process. The use of 1% w/w papain and an incubation time of 48 h resulted in a degree of hydrolysis of 93.75 ± 2.94% and a CS content of 59.53 ± 1.77 mg/100 g. The FTIR spectra of extracted CS products exhibited identical functional groups found in commercially available CS. The molecular weights of CS extracted from skipjack and yellowfin tuna heads were 11.0 kDa and 7.7 kDa, respectively. Subsequently, a CH:CS ratio of 3:2 for CS and chitooligosaccharides (CH) was chosen as the optimal ratio for the preparation of spherical nanoparticles, with %EE, mean particle size, PDI, and zeta potential values of 50.89 ± 0.66%, 128.90 ± 3.29 nm, 0.27 ± 0.04, and -12.47 ± 2.06, respectively. The CU content was enhanced to 127.21 ± 1.66 μg/mL. The release of CU from this particular nanosystem involved mainly a drug diffusion mechanism, with a burst release in the first 3 h followed by a sustained release of CU over 24 h. The DPPH and ABTS scavenging activity results confirmed the efficient encapsulation of CU into CHCS nanoparticles. This study will provide a theoretical basis for CS derived from tuna head cartilages to be used as a functional component with specific functional properties in food and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Low molecular weight sulfate glycosaminoglycan has attracted more attention recently for its great bioactivity. In the present study, a degraded sulfate glycosaminoglycan (named D-SBSG) was prepared from swimming bladder by enzymatic depolymerization, the structure characteristics of D-SBSG and its effects on blood coagulation and inflammation in vitro was investigated. HPGPC analysis showed that the molecular weight (Mw) of SBSG was 115.84 kDa, while the Mw of D-SBSG was 4.96 kDa. The bioactivities had arose dramatic differences, though its main molecule structure had little change after enzymatic degradation. Compared with heparin sodium, relatively milder anticoagulant activity in vitro, which were positively associated with molecular weight, were found in SBSG and D-SBSG. In contrast, the results of anti-inflammatory assays indicated that D-SBSG with the lower molecular weight possessed higher bioactivity than SBSG. Additionally, the D-SBSG inhibited the LPS-induced inflammatory in RAW264.7 macrophages by down-regulation of inflammatory mediators, both of NF-κB (including p65) and MAPK (including p38) signaling pathways to exert its anti-inflammatory function. These results indicated that enzymolysis is a viable strategy for degradation of sulfate glycosaminoglycan, and D-SBSG could be a promising ingredient for inflammation management.

Abstract
Chondroitinase plays an important role in structural and functional studies of chondroitin sulfate (CS). In this study, a new member of chondroitinase B of PL6 family, namely ChSase B6, was cloned from marine bacterium Microbulbifer sp. ALW1 and subjected to enzymatic and structural characterization. The recombinant ChSase B6 showed optimum activity at 40 °C and pH 8.0, with enzyme kinetic parameters of Km and Vmax against chondroitin sulfate B (CSB) to be 7.85 µg/mL and 1.21 U/mg, respectively. ChSase B6 demonstrated thermostability under 60 °C for 2 h with about 50% residual activity and good pH stability under 4.0-10.0 for 1 h with above 60% residual activity. In addition, ChSase B6 displayed excellent stability against the surfactants including Tween-20, Tween-80, Trion X-100, and CTAB. The degradation products of ChSase B6-treated CSB exhibited improved antioxidant ability as a hydroxyl radical scavenger. Structural analysis and site-directed mutagenesis suggested that the conserved residues Lys248 and Arg269 were important for the activity of ChSase B6. Characterization, structure, and molecular dynamics simulation of ChSase B6 provided a guide for further tailoring for its industrial application for chondroitin sulfate bioresource development.

Abstract
Novel bioactive collagen/chitosan/lysine-functionalized chondroitin sulfate (CSmod) injectable hydrogels are presented. The modification of CS with amine groups introduced with lysine moieties (the degree of substitution about 21%) guarantees its covalent binding with the hydrogel network while genipin crosslinking. Both the physicochemical and biological features of developed hydrogels might be adjusted by playing with CSmod and crosslinking agent concentrations. It was revealed that materials became more hydrophobic with increased CSmod content, while crosslinking degree and enzymatic degradation studies established the influence of CSmod concentration and Ch:CSmod ratio on the crosslinking process. In situ rheological experiments verified the injectability of resulted systems. The biological in vitro evaluation demonstrated that all designed materials are biocompatible as they supported proliferation and adhesion of MG-63 cell line. In vitro biomineralization study employing simulated body fluid model revealed CSmod-content dependent bioactivity of obtained hydrogels. Importantly for pristine collagen/chitosan materials, the formation of apatite-like structures was not observed. Our findings demonstrate that developed injectable ColChCSmod hydrogels particularly system with the greatest CSmod concentration exhibits high bioactive potential, without the need of applying additional inducers what renders them promising materials within tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Molecular size and spatial structure affect the bioactivities of polysaccharides. SFF is a fucoidan extracted from Sargassum fusiforme. The possible changes of SFF affected by gastrointestinal tract and subsequently changes of its physicochemical property or its bioactivity have yet to be systematically investigated. Our results showed that DSFF, the gastrointestinal digestion product of SFF, has increased reducing sugar content, increased proportion of low molecular weight components, and a more clustered island-like morphology. Both SFF and DSFF activate RAW 264.7 macrophages evidenced by the increasing level of NO, intracellular ROS, and macrophages cytokines. Further investigation showed that DSFF induced M1 phenotype polarization in RAW 264.7 cells. DSFF also showed stronger macrophage activation and phenotype polarization than SFF. Our present work showed that SFF could be digested by simulated gastrointestinal environment in vitro and the digested product DSFF showed higher efficiency in macrophages activation and phenotype polarization.

Abstract
Chondroitinase ABC I (csABC I) has attracted intensive attention because of its great potential in heparin refining and the enzymatic preparation of low-molecular-weight chondroitin sulfate (LMW-CS). However, low thermal resistance (<30℃) restricts its applications. Herein, structure-guided and sequence-assisted combinatorial engineering approaches were applied to improve the thermal resistance of Proteus vulgaris csABC I. By integrating the deletion of the flexible fragment R166-L170 at the N-terminal domain and the mutation of E694P at the C-terminal domain, variant NΔ5/E694P exhibited 247-fold improvement of its half-life at 37℃ and a 2.3-fold increase in the specific activity. Through batch fermentation in a 3-L fermenter, the expression of variant NΔ5/E694P in an Escherichia coli host reached 1.7 g L-1 with the activity of 1.0 × 105 U L-1 . Finally, the enzymatic approach for the preparation of LMW-CS was established. By modulating enzyme concentration and controlling depolymerization time, specifically distributed LMW-CS (7000, 3400, and 1900 Da) with low polydispersity was produced, demonstrating the applicability of these processes for the industrial production of LMW-CS in a more environmentally friendly way.
