Polyphenolic extracts from Diospyros kaki and Vitis vinifera by-products stimulate cytoprotective effects in bacteria-cell host interactions by mediation of transcription factor Nrf2. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 134:156020. [PMID: 39243749 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.156020] [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: 03/25/2024] [Revised: 08/10/2024] [Accepted: 09/01/2024] [Indexed: 09/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The intestinal and skin epithelium play a strong role against bacterial stimuli which leads to inflammation and oxidative stress when overwhelmed. Polyphenols from fruit-rich diets and by-products show promise against bacterial deleterious effects; however, their antibacterial and health-promoting effects remain understudied. PURPOSE This study aimed to assess the impact of polyphenolic extracts of grape (GrPE), persimmon (PePE) and pomegranate (PoPE) by-products on bacterial pathogen-host interactions, focusing beyond growth inhibition to explore their effects on bacterial adhesion, invasion, and modulation of host responses. METHODS The microdilution method, as well as the tetrazolium based MTT cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assay with crystal violet staining were used to identify extracts sub-inhibitory concentrations that interfere with bacterial adhesion, invasion or lipopolysaccharides (LPS) effect on cell hosts without compromising host viability. The cytoprotective effects of extracts were assessed in a knock-down model of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). RESULTS All extracts demonstrated significant reductions in pathogen adhesion to Caco-2 and HaCaT cells while preserving cellular integrity. Notably, PePE exhibited specific efficacy against Salmonella enterica adhesion, attributed mostly to its gallic acid content, whereas PoPE reduced S. enterica invasion in Caco-2 cells. The extracts supported the prevalence of non-pathogenic and commensal strains of intestinal and skin surfaces, selectively reducing pathogenic adhesion. The extracts mitigated the oxidative stress, enhanced the barrier function, and modulated the pro-inflammatory cytokines in LPS-challenged cells. GrPE, rich in anthocyanins, and PePE were found to mediate their protective effects through Nrf2 activation, while PoPE exerted multifaceted actions independent of Nrf2. CONCLUSION Our results highlight the therapeutic potential of GrPE, PePE, and PoPE in shaping bacterial-host interactions, endorsing their utility as novel nutraceuticals for both oral and topical applications to prevent potential bacterial infections through innovative mechanisms.

Development of a high-performance liquid chromatography method for simultaneous quantification of sixteen polyphenols and application to tomato. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1733:465254. [PMID: 39173503 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2024.465254] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 07/24/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/24/2024]
Abstract
The main purpose of the current work was to develop a new method to evaluate and quantify sixteen polyphenol compounds from tomato fruit using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The separation of 16 polyphenols from tomato fruit was achieved in < 60 min by using a Waters Symmetry C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm i. d, 5 µm particle sizes) with a gradient system of ultrapure water (1 % acetic acid) and 100 % methanol, a temperature of 30 °C, an injection volume of 10 μL and a flow rate of 1.1 mL/min, respectively. The analytical characteristics of evaluation method provide sufficient sensitivity for all tomato polyphenols compounds within normal range 0.1-20 μg·mL-1 (R2≥0.999) with 0.069-0.365 μg·mL-1 LOD, and 0.171-1.106 μg·mL-1 LOQ, with good system suitability (<2 % RSD of retention time, peak area, and tailing factor, 6,000-1,336,000 N, and >1.5 peak resolution), <10 % RSD of precision, stability, repeatability, and robustness, and 99.2 - 105.0 % of recovery. The applicability of this method was demonstrated by the determination of polyphenols in nine cultivars of tomatoes. The results showed that '184' possessed the highest content of total polyphenols (1249.53 μg·g-1 DW) followed by 'Disease resistance 184' (1064.93 μg·g-1 DW). The main polyphenol components were rutin, quercetin, gallic acid, chlorogenic acid, 2,5-dihydroxy benzoic acid, caffeic acid and benzoic acid in tomato fruits. In conclusion, this novel HPLC method is useful and acceptable to analyze polyphenols in tomato fruit.

Abstract
This study was designed to reveal the relationship among browning, polyphenol degradation, Maillard reaction (MR) and flavor variation in jujube fruit (JF) during air-impingement jet drying (AIJD). Five kinds of JFs were dried by AIJD at 60 °C and vacuum freeze drying. Colorimeter and chemometric analysis found that AIJD induced color changes of JF pulp and peel. AIJD also reduced the total polyphenols content and total flavonoids levels in JF. The Fe3+ reducing capacity and 2,2'-Azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonate) cationic radical scavenging capacity of JF were reduced by 31.6% and 8.2%, respectively. Seven polyphenols were identified in JF, and epicatechin was found related to change of JF pulp color by sparse partial least square (sPLS). sPLS revealed that 3-deoxy glucosone, N-ε-carboxymethyl-l-lysine and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural associated with JF color. sPLS found that MR generated 3-methyl-butanoic acid and cyclobutanone during AIJD of JF. Chemometrics is an effective tool to disclose mechanism of color changes in food.

Non-extractable polyphenols from blue honeysuckle fruit pomace with strong antioxidant capacity: Extraction, characterization, and their antioxidant capacity. Food Res Int 2023; 174:113495. [PMID: 37986497 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 09/13/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate a more practical method for obtaining non-extractable polyphenols (NEPPs) from blue honeysuckle fruit pomace. Three methods, namely acid, alkaline, and enzymatic hydrolysis, were utilized to extract NEPPs. The findings indicated that alkaline hydrolysis was the most effective method for releasing NEPPs, which demonstrated higher levels of total flavonoid content (TFC) and total phenolic content (TPC) from blue honeysuckle fruit pomace. Additionally, higher TPC and TFC levels were related to a stronger antioxidant capacity. Qualitative and quantitative analysis using HPLC-HR-TOF-MS/MS revealed that acid hydrolysis resulted in a greater concentration of certain phenolic acids, while alkaline hydrolysis yielded a higher concentration of flavonoids, and enzymatic hydrolysis produced a wider range of phenolic compositions. Despite the fact that enzymatic hydrolysis is considered a gentler method, the researchers concluded that alkaline hydrolysis was the most appropriate method for obtaining NEPPs from blue honeysuckle fruit pomace.

Abstract
This study presents a novel approach for converting cottonseed hulls (CSHs) into valuable proanthocyanidins (PAs) through deep eutectic solvent (DES)-based ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE-DES). Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize and model this process, resulting in maximum yields of 78.58 mg/g. The ideal PA extraction conditions were determined to be a liquid-to-material ratio of 36.25 mL/g, a water content of 33.21%, and an extraction period of 7.4 min. Molecular dynamic simulations (MDS) were performed to study the interactions between the solvent and target chemicals. Increased van der Waals forces and stronger interactions between DES and the target chemical catechin (CA) compared to those observed with methanol or water were observed. Furthermore, the optimized extract exhibited a higher PA content than can be obtained with conventional extraction methods and demonstrated antioxidant activity in vitro. The cottonseed hulls residues (CSRs) remaining after the extraction process can be used to produce activated carbon (ACCSR), which has some capacity to adsorb methylene blue (MB) contaminants. This study offers a reference for the fruitful transformation of waste biomass into high-value products.

Abstract
Edible composite coatings (ECC) formulated from biopolymers that incorporate antioxidant molecules represent an innovative alternative to improve food texture and provide health benefits. Tannins have aroused great interest due to their ability to stabilize suspensions and counteract the effects of free radicals. The mechanical and surface properties are crucial to establishing its quality and applicability. In this study, the objective was to analyze the mechanical and surface properties of ECC made with nanoliposomes that encapsulate grape seed tannins (TLS) and polysaccharides such as hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) and kappa carrageenan (KCG) for their future direct application in foods susceptible to oxidation. The inclusion of HPMC or KCG affected the density, showing values in the range of 1010 to 1050 [kg/m3], evidencing significant changes (p < 0.05) in the surface tension in the TLS/FS-HPMC and TLS/FS mixtures. KCG and in the dispersion coefficients, with values in the range of -2.9 to -17.6 [mN/m] in HPS (S1) and -17.6 to -40.9 [mN/m] in PDMS (S2). The TLS/FS-HPMC coating showed higher stiffness and elastic recovery capacity than the TLS/FS-KCG coating, suggesting that the presence of TLS influenced the stiffness of the polymer. HPMC is recommended as a suitable polymer for coating solids, while KCG is more appropriate for suspensions. These findings provide valuable information for directly applying these ECC compounds to food products, potentially offering better preservation and health benefits.

Abstract
Most of the pertinent research which aims at exploring the therapeutic effects of polyphenols usually misapprehends a large fraction of non-extractable polyphenols due to their poor aqueous-organic solvent extractability. These polymeric polyphenols (i.e., proanthocyanins, hydrolysable tannins and phenolic acids) possess a unique property to adhere to the food matrix polysaccharides and protein sowing to their structural complexity with high glycosylation, degree of polymerization, and plenty of hydroxyl groups. Surprisingly resistance to intestinal absorption does not hinder its bioactivity but accelerates its functionality manifolds due to the colonic microbial catabolism in the gastrointestinal tract, thereby protecting the body from local and systemic inflammatory diseases. This review highlights not only the chemistry, digestion, colonic metabolism of non-extractable polyphenols (NEPP) but also summarises the synergistic effect of matrix-bound NEPP exerting local as well as systemic health benefits.

Abstract
Vanilla is a globally treasured commodity, and the consequences of its unstable value affect social, environmental, economic, and academic ambits. The extensive range of aroma molecules found in cured vanilla beans is crucial to the complexity of this natural condiment and knowledge about their recovery is of the essence. Many strategies aim on reproducing the chemical intricacies of vanilla flavor, such as biotransformation and de novo biosynthesis. Few studies, however, aim at the exhaustion of the cured pods, of which the bagasse, after the traditional ethanolic extraction, might still bear a highly valued flavor composition. An untargeted liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MSE) approach was applied to elucidate if sequential alkaline-acidic hydrolysis was effective in extracting flavor related molecules and chemical classes from the hydro-ethanolic fraction. Important vanilla flavor related compounds present in the hydro-ethanolic fraction were further extracted from the residue through alkaline hydrolysis, such as vanillin, vanillic acid, 3-methoxybenzaldehyde, 4-vinylphenol, heptanoic acid, and protocatechuic acid. Acid hydrolysis was effective on further extracting features from classes such as phenols, prenol lipids, and organooxygen compounds, though representative molecules remain unknown. Finally, sequential alkaline-acidic hydrolysis rendered natural vanilla's ethanolic extraction residues as an interesting supplier of its own products, which could be used as a food additive, and many other applications.

Abstract
Due to its nutritional quality and palatability, chocolate milk beverages are gaining popularity globally. Alkalized cocoa powder is mostly used in its production since it provides for more intense color and dispersibility, but it has a negative effect on the phytochemical content of cocoa powder. Studies have suggested that water buffalo milk is superior to other milk due to its higher protein content and superior emulsion properties. As such, this study investigated the physico-chemical characteristics, sensory profile, and consumer acceptability of commercial and prototype water buffalo chocolate milk incorporated with alkalized and natural cocoa powder. Based on four buffalo chocolate milk samples, consumer acceptance was assessed by 120 consumers, which was combined with descriptive sensory data using a trained panel (n = 8) to determine drivers of liking. Compositional proximate analysis of alkalized and natural cocoa powders showed a significant difference in pH, moisture content, ash content, and fat content. Descriptive analysis showed that 8 out of 13 attributes (color, visual sandiness, cocoa and vanilla aroma, smoothness, creaminess, vanilla taste, and chocolate aftertaste) were effective discriminators of sensory attributes. Overall, buffalo chocolate milk samples were equally liked, but hedonic ratings of the individual attributes revealed that the samples were statistically different for color, viscosity (mouthfeel), and chocolate flavor. Partial least square regression (PLSR) identified chocolate flavor, viscous appearance, viscous mouthfeel, and bitter aftertaste as positive "drivers of liking". The darker color provided by alkalized cocoa powder did not increase consumer liking. The purchase intention was equal for all chocolate milk samples, whether alkalized or natural. Both cocoa powders showed comparable performance in the manufacture of buffalo chocolate milk. Using natural cocoa powder may be beneficial to local producers of cocoa powder and cocoa farmers since it is easier to produce, while it can provide a marketing advantage for dairy beverages in the global trend of going back to "organic" and "natural".

Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12051004. [PMID: 37237870 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12051004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPCs), as a class of compounds widely found in plants, are particularly abundant in grapes and blueberries. It is a polymer comprising many different monomers, such as catechins and epicatechins. The monomers are usually linked to each other by two types of links, A-linkages (C-O-C) and B-linkages (C-C), to form the polymers. Numerous studies have shown that compared to high polymeric procyanidins, OPCs exhibit antioxidant properties due to the presence of multiple hydroxyl groups. This review describes the molecular structure and natural source of OPCs, their general synthesis pathway in plants, their antioxidant capacity, and potential applications, especially the anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, cardiovascular disease prevention, and antineoplastic functions. Currently, OPCs have attracted much attention, being non-toxic and natural antioxidants of plant origin that scavenge free radicals from the human body. This review would provide some references for further research on the biological functions of OPCs and their application in various fields.

Abstract
Wine pomace (WP) is a major byproduct generated during winemaking, and skin pomace (SKP) comprises one of the most valuable components of WP. Since SKP differs in composition and properties from seed pomace (SDP), precise knowledge of SKP will aid the wine industry in the development of novel, high-value products. The current review summarizes recent advances in research relating to SKP presents a comprehensive description of the generation, composition, and bioactive components, primarily focusing on the biological activities of SKP, including antioxidant, gastrointestinal health promotion, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and metabolic disease alleviation properties. Currently, the separation and recovery of skins and seeds is an important trend in the wine industry for the disposal of winemaking byproducts. In comparison to SDP, SKP is rich in polyphenols including anthocyanins, flavonols, phenolic acids, stilbenes, and some proanthocyanidins, as well as dietary fiber (DF). These distinctive benefits afford SKP the opportunity for further development and application. Accordingly, the health-promoting mechanism and appropriate application of SKP will be further elucidated in terms of physiological activity, with the progress of biochemical technology and the deepening of related research.

Abstract
Non-extractable phenolic compounds (NEPs), or bound phenolic compounds, represent a crucial component of polyphenols. They are an essential fraction that remains in the residual matrix after the extraction of extractable phenolic compounds (EPs), making them a valuable resource for numerous applications. These compounds encompass a diverse range of phenolic compounds, ranging from low molecular weight phenolic to high polymeric polyphenols attached to other macro molecules, e.g., cell walls and proteins. Their status as natural, green antioxidants have been well established, with numerous studies showcasing their anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, anti-cancer, and hypoglycemic activities. These properties make them a highly desirable alternative to synthetic antioxidants. Fruit and vegetable (F&Veg) wastes, e.g., peels, pomace, and seeds, generated during the harvest, transport, and processing of F&Vegs, are abundant in NEPs and EPs. This review delves into the various types, contents, structures, and antioxidant activities of NEPs and EPs in F&Veg wastes. The relationship between the structure of these compounds and their antioxidant activity is explored in detail, highlighting the importance of structure-activity relationships in the field of natural antioxidants. Their potential applications ranging from functional food and beverage products to nutraceutical and cosmetic products. A glimpse into their bright future as a valuable resource for a greener, healthier, and more sustainable future, and calling for researchers, industrialists, and policymakers to explore their full potential, are elaborated.

Abstract
Edible insects have the potential to become one of the major future foods. In fact, they can be considered cheap, highly nutritious, and healthy food sources. International agencies, such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), have focused their attention on the consumption of edible insects, in particular, regarding their nutritional value and possible biological, toxicological, and allergenic risks, wishing the development of analytical methods to verify the authenticity, quality, and safety of insect-based products. Edible insects are rich in proteins, fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals but also seem to contain large amounts of polyphenols able to have a key role in specific bioactivities. Therefore, this review is an overview of the potential of edible insects as a source of bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols, that can be a function of diet but also related to insect chemical defense. Currently, insect phenolic compounds have mostly been assayed for their antioxidant bioactivity; however, they also exert other activities, such as anti-inflammatory and anticancer activity, antityrosinase, antigenotoxic, and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activities.

Abstract
Lavender is a valuable medicinal plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family. Currently 39 species are known, but only Lavandula angustifolia is a pharmacopoeial raw material. Lavender has a long history of medicinal use and mainly exhibits antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, sedative, antidepressant, spasmolytic, anticholinesterases, antifungal and antibacterial properties. Used internally, it relieves symptoms of mental stress and insomnia and supports digestion. Topical use of lavender in aromatherapy, neuralgia and antiseptics is also known. The constant interest in lavender, and in particular in Lavandula angustifolia, in the field of medicine and pharmacy is evidenced by the growing number of publications. In view of so many studies, it seems important to review traditional and modern extraction techniques that determine the chemical composition responsible for the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of various extracts from the species of the Lavandula genus.

Abstract
Free and esterified (bound) tocopherols, tocotrienols and other tocochromanol-related compounds, often referred to "tocols", are lipophilic antioxidants of great importance for health. For instance, α-tocopherol is the only tocochromanol with vitamin E activity, while tocotrienols have a positive impact on health and are proposed in the prevention and therapy of so-called modern diseases. Tocopherols, tocotrienols and plastochromanol-8 are the most well-known tocochromanols; in turn, knowledge about tocodienols, tocomonoenols, and other rare tocochromanol-related compounds is limited due to several challenges in analytical chemistry and/or low concentration in plant material. The presence of free, esterified, and non-extractable tocochromanols in plant material as well as their biological function, which may be of great scientific, agricultural and medicinal importance, is also poorly studied. Due to the lack of modern protocols as well as equipment and tools, for instance, techniques suitable for the efficient and simultaneous chromatographical separation of major and minor tocochromanols, the topic requires attention and new solutions, and/or standardization, and proper terminology. This review discusses the advantages and disadvantages of different chromatographic techniques, tools and approaches used for the separation and detection of different tocochromanols in plant material and foodstuffs. Sources of tocochromanols and procedures for obtaining different tocochromanol analytical standards are also described. Finally, future challenges are discussed and perspective green techniques for tocochromanol determination are proposed along with best practice recommendations. The present manuscript aims to present key aspects and protocols related to tocochromanol determination, correct identification, and the interpretation of obtained results.

Abstract
Sweet cherry pomace is an important source of phenolic compounds with beneficial health properties. As after the extraction of phenolic compounds, a phenolic fraction called nonextractable polyphenols (NEPs) remains usually retained in the extraction residue, alkaline and acid hydrolyses and enzymatic-assisted extraction (EAE) were carried out in this work to recover NEPs from the residue of conventional extraction from sweet cherry pomace. In vitro and in vivo evaluation of the antioxidant, antihypertensive, antiaging, and neuroprotective capacities employing Caenorhabditis elegans was achieved for the first time. Extractable phenolic compounds and NEPs were separated and identified by families by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) with UV/Vis detection. A total of 39 phenolic compounds were tentatively identified in all extracts by direct analysis in real-time high-resolution mass spectrometry (DART-Orbitrap-HRMS). EAE extracts presented the highest in vitro and in vivo antioxidant capacity as well as the highest in vivo antiaging and neuroprotective capacities. These results showed that NEPs with interesting biological properties are retained in the extraction residue, being usually underestimated and discarded.

Abstract
Most of the studies regarding phenolic compounds (PC) have been focused only on one fraction of PC, named extractable phenolic compounds (EPC). As the name suggests, EPC can be directly extracted from the food matrix by using an appropriate solvent. Otherwise, non-extractable phenolic compounds (NEPC) remain in the food matrix after the conventional extraction, and their analysis depends on a hydrolysis process. NEPC is a relevant fraction of PC that acts in the colon, where they are extensively fermented by the action of the microbiota. To understand the health effects associated with the NEPC intake, it is necessary to know which types of compounds are present and their content in foods. In this review, 182 studies published in the last five years about NEPC in foods were evaluated, focusing on critical points of the NEPC analysis. First, EPC exhaustive extraction should be performed before the hydrolysis processes to avoid overestimation of the NEPC fraction. NEPC hydrolysis by aggressive methods modifies their original structure and makes their complete elucidation difficult. These methods must be optimized considering the research objective, as different conditions may result in different amounts and profiles of compounds. Concerning quantification, the widely used spectrophotometric Folin-Ciocalteu method should be avoided as it leads to overestimation. Liquid chromatography coupled to a diode array detector is the most appropriate technique for this purpose. Although pure standard compounds are unavailable in most cases, standards representative of a PC family can be used, and results can be expressed as equivalent. The best approach for NEPC identification is liquid chromatography coupled to a diode array detector and tandem high-resolution mass spectrometry, which generates information regarding chromatographic behavior, UV-vis absorption, accuracy mass and fragmentation pattern. The identification process should associate manual data handling with the bioinformatics-assisted approach.

Abstract
Polyphenols from edible seaweeds display various health benefits which have not been adequately studied. This study aimed to characterize the composition of extractable polyphenol-rich components (EPCs) and non-extractable polyphenol-rich components (NEPCs) from three edible seaweeds (i.e., Laminaria japonica, Ulva lactuca, and Porphyra tenera) and evaluate their anti-inflammatory capacities in activated macrophages and anticancer properties in colon cancer cells. Both EPCs and NEPCs from three edible seaweeds against lipopolysaccharides (LPS) stimulated nitric oxide in activated macrophages. Immunoblotting and qRT-PCR indicated that EPCs and NEPCs regulated the expression levels of proinflammatory enzymes, proinflammatory cytokines, and antioxidant enzymes in macrophages. Furthermore, EPCs and NEPCs lowered the viability of colon cancer cells, while normal colon cells were not affected. Additionally, EPCs and NEPCs induced cellular apoptosis and led to G0/G1 cell cycle arrest in HCT116 cells. Overall, these results provide a rationale for future animal and human studies designed to examine the anti-inflammatory and chemopreventive capacities of polyphenols-rich components from L. japonica, U. lactuca, and P. tenera.

Effect of Flaking and Precooking Procedures on Antioxidant Potential of Selected Ancient Cereal and Legume Flours. Foods 2022; 11:foods11111592. [PMID: 35681346 PMCID: PMC9180556 DOI: 10.3390/foods11111592] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 05/25/2022] [Accepted: 05/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Consumption of cereals (and particularly ancient cereals) is considered the base of a healthy diet, and all current dietary guidelines have cereals at the bottom of the nutrition pyramid. Together with cereals, legumes are an excellent source of nutrients and nutraceuticals. The effects of agroindustrial pretreatments (flaking and precooking processes) on the antioxidant potential of flours from ancient cereals and legumes were studied. The extraction of free hydrophilic phenolic compounds was carried out in a hydroalcoholic solvent mixture via an ultrasound-assisted process. Furthermore, the solid residue was successively hydrolyzed by an alkaline solution to extract the bound phenolic fraction. Both free and bound extracted fractions were then quantitatively characterized for total polyphenolic and flavonoid contents, and the antioxidant potential was determined by carrying out the ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging assays, expressing the results (in both cases) as the Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC/ABTS and TEAC/DPPH, respectively). The samples were also extracted in organic apolar solvents (acetone or water-saturated iso-butanol) to quantitatively characterize lipophilic antioxidant compounds and pigments. A discussion on the comparison of these analytical parameters of flours obtained from raw, flaked, and precooked cereals and legumes is reported revealing that (i) phenolic compounds are mainly present in the post-hydrolysis extract (bound fraction), (ii) the precooking process significantly reduced the concentration of antioxidants, (iii) the flaking process slightly increased the phenolic content, (iv) legumes were less influenced by pretreatments, suggesting the possibility of using legumes to enrich cereal foods.

Proteome changes in human bladder T24 cells induced by hydroquinone derived from Arctostaphylos uva-ursi herbal preparation. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 289:115092. [PMID: 35143933 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.115092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2021] [Revised: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 02/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Arctostaphylos uva-ursi (L.) Spreng. (bearberry) is a well-known traditional herbal plant used as a urinary tract disinfectant. Its antiseptic and diuretic properties can be attributed to hydroquinone, obtained by hydrolysis of arbutin. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to determine the toxic profile of free hydroquinone on urinary bladder cells (T24) as a target of therapeutic action. MATERIALS AND METHODS Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the extract and the digestive stability and bioavailability of arbutin and hydroquinone were performed by HPLC assay and simulated in vitro digestion, respectively. Cytotoxic effect, reactive oxygen species induction and proteome changes in T24 cells after hydroquinone treatment were determined using Neutral red assay, 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein-diacetate (DCFH-DA) assay and mass spectrometry, respectively. RESULTS Through in vitro digestion, arbutin was stable, but hydroquinone increased after pepsin treatment (109.6%) and then decreased after the small intestine phase (65.38%). The recommended doses of Uva-ursi had a cytotoxic effect on T24 cells only when all hydroquinone conjugates were converted to free hydroquinone (320 and 900 μg/mL) and the toxic effect was enhanced by recovery. One cup of the therapeutic dose had a prooxidative effect after 4 h of incubation. Shorter time of cell exposure (2 h) to hydroquinone did not have any impact on reactive oxygen species induction. Proteomic analysis found 17 significantly up-regulated proteins compared to control. Hydroquinone activated proteins related to oxidative stress response, stress-adaptive signalling, heat shock response and initiation of translation. CONCLUSIONS Despite the therapeutic properties of bearberry, up-regulated T24 cell proteins are evidence that plant compounds, although from a natural source, may exhibit negative properties.

Abstract
Subcritical solvent extraction is a novel method to recover polyphenols from spent black tea at pilot-scale. After hot water extraction, non-extractable polyphenols were found in spent black tea. Subcritical solvent extraction recovered the non-extractable polyphenols from spent black tea. Water–ethanol mixture at hot-pressurised conditions promoted the recovery of non-extractable polyphenols.
Spent black tea (SBT) is a residue from tea beverage production and considered as a potential source of active polyphenols. This study aimed to develop a pilot-scale process on semi-continuous subcritical solvent extraction (SSE) of polyphenols from SBT by exploiting the lab-scale knowledge. Treatment of SBT with ethanol–water (50% w/w) as solvent at 125 °C and 0.3 MPa achieved a significantly higher yield of polyphenols (80.82 g gallic acid equivalents/kg black tea) with antioxidant activity (64.20 g gallic acid equivalents/kg black tea), compared to hot water extraction (HWE). SSE increased the soluble matter content in extracts than HWE. Based on the results of LC-MS, theaflavin-3,3′-digallate was the most abundant polyphenol from a total of 12 compounds to be extracted by SBT with 50% ethanol. The results suggested that SSE can be used as a scale-up extraction method to recover polyphenols from SBT.

Abstract
In vitro digestion and absorption simulation processes of non-extractable polyphenols (NEPs) obtained by pressurized liquid extraction combined with enzymatic-assisted extraction with Promod enzyme (PLE-EAE) from the residue of conventional extraction of sweet cherry pomace were studied. In general, total phenolic and proanthocyanidin contents decreased in each phase of the digestion. However, the antioxidant capacity increased when the digestion process progressed. In addition, the highest total phenolic and proanthocyanidin contents and antioxidant capacity were obtained in the absorbed fraction. NEPs from PLE-EAE extract, digestive fractions, absorbed and unabsorbed fractions were analyzed by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to electrospray ionization quadrupole Exactive-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-ESI-Q-Orbitrap-MS). Fifteen NEPs were identified in the intestinal fraction and five in the absorbed fraction after the digestion process. Results obtained in this study define for the first time the bioavailability of antioxidant NEPs obtained from sweet cherry pomace.

Abstract
A simple and rapid direct analysis in real-time coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HRMS) methodology was developed to generate the extractable and non-extractable polyphenols (NEPs) fingerprint for four different passion fruits, G. mangostana, and A. squamosa peels as case-study to investigate the influence of alkaline hydrolysis and enzymatic-assisted extraction (EAE) on the recovery of NEPs. The extraction residue obtained after these treatments was also analyzed by DART-HRMS. Data compiled from DART-HRMS mass spectra were processed with principal component analysis to discriminate among the different treatments. EAE with Depol enzyme enabled to obtain NEPs with the highest signal intensity in DART-HRMS analysis from all peels except for P. edulis and A. squamosa peels. In these two cases, NEPs were better extracted by EAE with Promod enzyme and alkaline hydrolysis. Results showed that the applied treatments were efficient to extract NEPs since their signal intensities in the extraction residues were very low compared with their extracts.

Abstract
Strawberry is a rich source of phenolics. However, most studies focused on extractable phenolics (EP) while neglecting non-extractable phenolics (NEP). The aim of this study was to characterize EP and NEP from strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) and determine their anti-inflammatory and anti-colon cancer potentials in cell culture models. NEP contained flavonols, flavanols and phenolic acids that were released through alkaline hydrolysis. NEP dose-dependently inhibited lipopolysaccharides -induced NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophage. Western blotting showed that NEP reduced the expression levels of pro-inflammatory proteins such as iNOS and c-FOS, but increased the expression level of antioxidative protein, such as HO-1. Moreover, NEP markedly suppressed proliferation of human colon cancer HCT116 cells via inducing G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Collectively, these findings illustrated preventive effects of strawberry NEP against inflammation and colon cancer, shedding light on potential contribution of NEP from strawberry as a health-promoting agent.

Abstract
Sweet cherry generates large amounts of by-products within which pomace can be a source of bioactive phenolic compounds. Commonly, phenolic compounds have been obtained by conventional extraction methodologies. However, a significant fraction, called non-extractable polyphenols (NEPs), stays held in the conventional extraction residues. Therefore, in the present work, the release of NEPs from cherry pomace using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) combined with enzyme-assisted extraction (EAE) using PromodTM enzyme is investigated for the first time. In order to study the influence of temperature, time, and pH on the NEPs extraction, a response surface methodology was carried out. PLE-EAE extracts displayed higher TPC (75 ± 8 mg GAE/100 g sample) as well as, PA content, and antioxidant capacity than the extracts obtained by PLE (with a TPC value of 14 ± 1 mg GAE/100 g sample) under the same extraction conditions, and those obtained by conventional methods (TPC of 8.30 ± 0.05 mg GAE/100 g sample). Thus, PLE-EAE treatment was more selective and sustainable to release NEPs from sweet cherry pomace compared with PLE without EAE treatment. Besides, size-exclusion chromatography profiles showed that PLE-EAE allowed obtaining NEPs with higher molecular weight (>8000 Da) than PLE alone.

Phytochemical Composition, Antibacterial Activity, and Antioxidant Properties of the Artocarpus altilis Fruits to Promote Their Consumption in the Comoros Islands as Potential Health-Promoting Food or a Source of Bioactive Molecules for the Food Industry. Foods 2021; 10:foods10092136. [PMID: 34574246 PMCID: PMC8468414 DOI: 10.3390/foods10092136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the health-promoting potential of breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis (Parkinson) Fosberg, Moraceae family), a traditional Comorian food, considering the sample variability according to geographic localisation. Moreover, the main aims of this research were also to promote its consumption in the Comoros Islands as potential health-promoting food and evaluate it as a source of bioactive molecules for the food industry thanks to its antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Investigations on biologically active substances were carried out on the extracts obtained from breadfruit flours from five regions of Grande Comore (Ngazidja), the main island in Comoros. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of tannins and polyphenols, flavonoids, leucoanthocyanins, steroids, and triterpenes. The considered secondary metabolites were phenolic compounds, vitamin C, monoterpenes, and organic acids. The contents of total phenolic compounds (mgGAE/100 g of dry weight—DW) in the extracts ranged from 29.69 ± 1.40 (breadfruit from Mbadjini—ExMBA) to 96.14 ± 2.07 (breadfruit from Itsandra—ExITS). These compounds included flavanols, flavonols, cinnamic acid and benzoic acid derivatives, and tannins which were detected at different levels in the different extracts. Chlorogenic acid presented the highest levels between 26.57 ± 0.31 mg/100 g DW (ExMIT) and 43.80 ± 5.43 mg/100 g DW (ExMBA). Quercetin was by far the most quantitatively important flavonol with levels ranging from 14.68 ± 0.19 mg/100 g DW (ExMIT) to 29.60 ± 0.28 mg/100 g DW (ExITS). The extracts were also rich in organic acids and monoterpenes. Quinic acid with contents ranging from 77.25 ± 6.04 mg/100 g DW (ExMBA) to 658.56 ± 0.25 mg/100 g DW of ExHAM was the most important organic acid in all the breadfruit extracts, while limonene was quantitatively the main monoterpene with contents between 85.86 ± 0.23 mg/100 g DW (ExMIT) and 565.45 ± 0.24 mg/100 g DW (ExITS). The antibacterial activity of the extracts was evaluated on twelve pathogens including six Gram (+) bacteria and six Gram (−) bacteria. By the solid medium disc method, except for Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, all the bacteria were sensitive to one or more extracts. Inhibitory Halo Diameters (IHDs) ranged from 8 mm to 16 mm. Salmonella enterica, Clostridium perfringens, and Vibrio fischeri were the most sensitive with IHD > 14 mm for ExITS. By the liquid microdilution method, MICs ranged from 3.12 mg/mL to 50 mg/mL and varied depending on the extract. Bacillus megaterium was the most sensitive with MICs ≤ 12.5 mg/mL. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Shigella flexneri, and Vibrio fischeri were the least sensitive with all MICs ≥ 12.5 mg/mL. ExHAM was most effective with a MIC of 3.12 mg/mL on Staphylococcus aureus and 6.25 mg/mL on Salmonella enterica. The antioxidant power of the extracts was evaluated by the FRAP method. The activity ranged from 5.44 ± 0.35 (ExMBA) to 14.83 ± 0.11 mmol Fe2+/kg DW (ExHAM). Breadfruit from different regions of Comoros contained different classes of secondary metabolites well known for their important pharmacological properties. The results of this study on phenolics, monoterpenes, and organic acids have provided new data on these fruits. The obtained results showed that breadfruit from the biggest island of the Union of Comoros also presented antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, even if some differences in effectiveness existed between fruits from different regions.

Abstract
Syzygium cumini L. Skeels belongs to Myrtaceae family. This species has been recognized by its antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities. Despite ever-increasing scientific interest for this species there is no pharmacopeia method for characterization and standardization of S. cumini yet. So, toward this aim, the objective of this work was to develop an efficient analytical methodology able to determine polyphenols and tannins content from leaves hydroethanolic extract of S. cumini using Folin-Ciocalteu method by ultraviolet absorption spectrophotometry (UV-Vis). The analytical methodology was developed for the first time in the literature for leaves of this specie shown to be fast and low-cost with results expressed through tannic acid equivalent (TAE). Moreover, the methodology presented selectivity with maximum absorption at 706 nm wavelength, linearity with R2>0.99; limit of detection 0.275 µg TAE mL-1 and 0.102 µg TAE mL-1; limit of quantification 1.046 µg TAE mL-1 and 0.912 µg TAE mL-1 for total polyphenols and total tannins, respectively. Furthermore, the methodology was accurate with recover value greater than 98%, as well as exact, reproductive, and robust with coefficient of variation values less than 15% for both compounds. All the results are found within the fixed limits according to RDC 166/2017.

Abstract
The multifactorial process of aging predisposes humans to infections and inflammatory disorders, thus affecting their quality of life and longevity. Given this reality, the need to increase the consumption of bioactive compounds, like dietary polyphenols emerges in our daily basis mostly due to their health related effects in slowing-down the incidence of chronic and degenerative diseases and even food allergy, which has been growing rapidly in prevalence currently affecting 5% of adults and 8% of children. Polyphenols embrace a large family of secondary metabolites from plant-derived foods and food wastes and are considerable of interest since they have attracted special attention over the years because of their reported anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties along with their high antioxidant capacity. These compounds are claimed as nutraceuticals with protective effect in offsetting oxidant species over-genesis in normal cells, and with the potential ability to stop or reverse oxidative stress-related diseases. Plant-derived foods represent a substantive portion of human diet containing a significant amount of structurally diverse polyphenols. There is a need to understand the polyphenolic composition of plant-derived foods mainly because of its chemistry, which discloses the bioactivity of a plant extract. However, the lack of standardized methods for analysis and other difficulties associated to the nature and distribution of plant polyphenols leads to a high variability of available data. Furthermore, there is still a gap in the understanding of polyphenols bioavailability and pharmacokinetics, which clearly difficult the settlement of the intake needed to observe health outcomes. Many efforts have been made to provide highly sensitive and selective analytical methods for the extraction (liquid-liquid; solid-liquid; supercritical-fluid), separation (spectrophotometric methods) and structural identification (chromatographic techniques, NMR spectroscopy, MS spectrometry) of phenolic and polyphenolic compounds present in these extracts. Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has been a fundamental technique in this area of research, not only for the determination of this family of compounds in food matrices, but also for the characterization and identification of new polyphenols classified with nutraceutical interest. This review summarizes the nature, distribution and main sources of polyphenols, analytical methods from extraction to characterization to further evaluate the health effects toward immune reactions to food.

High-performance thin-layer chromatography and direct analysis in real time-high resolution mass spectrometry of non-extractable polyphenols from tropical fruit peels. Food Res Int 2021; 147:110455.

Abstract
Passiflora species, mangosteen, and cherimoya peels are a source of bioactive phenolic compounds. Nevertheless, a significant fraction of polyphenols, called non-extractable polyphenols (NEPs), are retained in the extraction residue after a conventional extraction. Thus, alkaline, acid, and enzymatic-assisted extractions to recover high contents of antioxidant NEPs from the extraction residue of fruit peels, were compared in this work. A high-performance thin-layer chromatography method with UV/Vis detection was developed in order to obtain the phenolic profile for the extracts. The most intense bands were further analyzed by direct analysis in real-time-high-resolution mass spectrometry to tentatively identified NEPs in fruit peel extracts. Total phenolic and proanthocyanidin contents and antioxidant capacity of the extracts were measured to carry out a multivariate statistical analysis. Alkaline hydrolysis was the most efficient treatment to recover NEPs from fruit peels as well as a promising treatment to obtain antioxidant extracts along with EAE. Cherimoya peel extracts were the richest in antioxidant NEPs. This work highlights that many NEPs remain on the extraction residue of fruit peels after conventional extraction and are not usually taken into account.

Abstract
Phenolic compounds are plants’ bioactive metabolites that have been studied for their ability to confer extensive benefits to human health. As currently there is an increased interest in natural compounds identification and characterization, new analytical methods based on advanced technologies have been developed. This paper summarizes current advances in the state of the art for polyphenols identification and quantification. Analytical techniques ranging from high-pressure liquid chromatography to hyphenated spectrometric methods are discussed. The topic of high-resolution mass spectrometry, from targeted quantification to untargeted comprehensive chemical profiling, is particularly addressed. Structure elucidation is one of the important steps for natural products research. Mass spectral data handling approaches, including acquisition mode selection, accurate mass measurements, elemental composition, mass spectral library search algorithms and structure confirmation through mass fragmentation pathways, are discussed.

Abstract
The Araucaria araucana kernels are a traditional food in southern Chile and Argentina. The aim of this work was to determine the composition of the phenolic-enriched extracts (PEEs) of the boiled kernels as well as their antioxidant capacity, inhibitory activity on metabolic syndrome-associated enzymes and effect on postprandial oxidative stress in a simulated gastric digestion model. The PEEs composition was assessed by HPLC-DAD-MS/MS. The main PEEs constituents were catechin and epicatechin in the unbound form, while hydroxybenzoic acids occurred mainly in the bound form. The unbound phenolics from boiled kernels showed significant correlations with DPPH, FRAP, TEAC (Pearson's r of 0.481, 0.331 and 0.417, respectively) and lipid peroxidation (r = 0.381) and were more active than the bound phenolics. The extracts were highly active against α-glucosidase (IC50: 0.33-3.15 µg/mL) and reduced lipoperoxidation. Traditional processing increases the flavan-3-ol content. Our results suggest that this traditional food has potential health promoting properties.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of ultrasound assisted-subcritical water (U-SW), subcritical water (SW), ultrasound (U) and hot water (HW) pretreatments and acid hydrolysis (AH) and alkaline hydrolysis (AlkH) on the phenolic composition, antioxidant potential and cytotoxicity of Tartary buckwheat hull extracts. The Folin Ciocalteu assay and HPLC-MS were used to characterize and quantify phenolics of the extracts. The ABTS, FRAP and TEAC assays were used to measure antioxidant activity and the MTT assay was used to measure cytotoxicity of the extracts in HepG2 human liver cancer cells. Results showed that U-SW gave the best AH yield of phenolics (128.45), followed by SW (85.82) and U (64.70), compared to the control, HW (35.82 mgg-1). The same trend was observed for phenols extracted using AlkH. U-SW had the highest antioxidant activity, followed by SW and U regardless of hydrolytic method used. Cytotoxicity followed a similar trend with U-SW and SW being the most cytotoxic to liver cancer cells, followed by U, with the least being HW. The findings suggested that plant materials such as Tartary buckwheat hulls can be pretreated with U-SW, SW and U prior to hydrolytic recovery of bound polyphenols. Also, AH was more efficient than AlkH for phenol extraction, and gave extracts with higher antioxidant activity and cytotoxicity in HepG2 liver carcinoma cells. This application allows for beneficial usage of agricultural biomass and help diversify income sources and products for industry.

Abstract
A solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure was developed for simultaneous monitoring of sixteen different phenolics of various polarity, quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The procedure allowed screening the accumulation of intermediates in different metabolic pathways that play a crucial role in plant physiology and/or are beneficial for human health. Metabolites mostly involved in phenylpropanoid, shikimate, and polyketide pathways comprise chlorogenic acid, gentisic acid, vanillic acid, caffeic acid, protocatechuic acid, ferulic acid, rutin, quercetin, epicatechin, gallic acid, sinapic acid, p-coumaric acid, o-coumaric acid, vanillin; two rarely quantified metabolites, 2,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid and 4-methoxycinnamic acid, were included as well. The procedure offered low cost, good overall efficiency, and applicability in laboratories with standard laboratory equipment. SPE recoveries were up to 99.8% at various concentration levels. The method allowed for routine analysis of compounds with a wide range of polarity within a single run, while its applicability was demonstrated for various model plant species (tobacco, wheat, and soybean), as well as different tissue types (shoots and roots).

Abstract
New technology development and globalisation have led to extreme changes in the agri-food sector in recent years that need an important food supply chain characterisation from plant materials to commercial productions. Many analytical strategies are commonly utilised in the agri-food industry, often using complementary technologies with different purposes. Chromatography on-line coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) is one of the most selective and sensitive analytical methodologies. The purpose of this overview is to present the most recent MS-based techniques applied to food analysis. An entire section is dedicated to the recent applications of high-resolution MS. Covered topics include liquid (LC)– and gas chromatography (GC)–MS analysis of natural bioactive substances, including carbohydrates, flavonoids and related compounds, lipids, phenolic compounds, vitamins, and other different molecules in foodstuffs from the perspectives of food composition, food authenticity and food adulteration. The results represent an important contribution to the utilisation of GC–MS and LC–MS in the field of natural bioactive compound identification and quantification.

Abstract
This work was performed to study Castilla Rose (Purshia plicata) as a potential source of polyphenols obtained by solid-state fermentation (SSF)-assisted extraction using the microorganism Aspergillus niger GH1 and to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the extracted compounds. First, water absorption capacity (WAC) of the plant material, radial growth of the microorganism, determination of best fermentation conditions, and maximum accumulation time of polyphenols were tested. Then, a larger-scale fermentation, polyphenols isolation by column liquid chromatography (Amberlite XAD-16) and recovered compounds identification by HPLC-MS were made. Finally, the antioxidant activity of the recovered compounds was tested by ABTS, DPPH, and lipid oxidation inhibition assays. The best fermentation conditions were temperature 25 °C and inoculum 2 × 106 spores/g, while the maximum extraction time of polyphenols was 24 h (173.95 mg/g). The HPLC/MS analysis allowed the identification of 25 different polyphenolic compounds, and the antioxidant activity of the obtained polyphenols was demonstrated, showing ABTS assay the most effective with inhibition of 94.34%.

Abstract
The antioxidant properties of foods are crucial in nutrition, food chemistry, and medicine studies but are often underestimated, with significant amounts of bioactive compounds containing physiological and biochemical properties remaining in the residue from extraction as non-extractable antioxidants. Over the last decade, extractable and non-extractable compounds have become key in the evaluation/determination of the antioxidant properties of food matrices because of their relevance in human health. This has led to the need to include extractable and non-extractable antioxidants in comprehensive and harmonized food composition databases for a wide range of applications within research, food, pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical areas. Additionally, the databases are invaluable as part of the health claims application process. eBASIS, (Bioactive Substances in Food Information System) a comprehensive database containing quality-evaluated scientific data, covering the composition of bioactive compounds present in foods, has flexible structures, allowing it to be extended to include newly emerging data on extractable and non-extractable compounds. Search criteria were developed and defined for compiling suitable peer-reviewed literature. Data quality assessment methods were established for the addition of composition data and antioxidant activity, with a focus on various parameters including: the extraction procedure, the antioxidant measurements, the expression of results. A total of 437 quality-evaluated datapoints on the composition of extractable and/or non-extractable compounds were entered into the database. This database update represents one of the first examples of building a database dedicated to antioxidant properties. This expansion of eBASIS provides a novel and unique tool for nutritionists, dietitians, researchers to use for a wide range of applications, such as dietary assessment, exposure studies and epidemiological studies, and may contribute to an increase in high-bioactive food consumption by consumers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Arbutin is a phenol glucoside found in high concentrations in bearberry leaves and associated with the antimicrobial activity of the plant. Hydroquinone can also be found in leaves or be formed by degradation of arbutin. Lengthy exposure to free hydroquinone is associated with induction of toxicity in different organs. OBJECTIVE To develop and validate a stability-indicating method by high-performance liquid chromatography diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) for simultaneous quantification of arbutin and hydroquinone in bearberry leaves and perform a comprehensive forced degradation study comparing synthetic arbutin and the arbutin in bearberry leaves. METHODS Separation was performed using a C18 column, mobile phase with water-methanol (95:5), flow rate 1.0 mL/min and detection at 280 nm. Bearberry leaves were assayed and a forced degradation study of arbutin was performed in different conditions. RESULTS The method complied with all required validation parameters. Contents varied from 1.19 to 4.15% (w/w) of arbutin and from 0.022 to 0.604% (w/w) of hydroquinone. Synthetic arbutin was susceptible to acid hydrolysis and oxidative degradation, forming hydroquinone as the main degradation product. The same study using bearberry leaves showed that constituents of the plant matrix may act as antioxidants, reducing the oxidative degradation of arbutin, however acid hydrolysis of arbutin occurred in higher intensity. CONCLUSION Analysis of bearberry leaves evidenced high variation in arbutin and hydroquinone levels, demonstrating the need for standardisation and control. The stability profiles of synthetic arbutin and the arbutin in bearberry leaves were considerably different and the results may be useful for determining the most appropriate conditions for extraction and production of bearberry-based formulations.

[PMID: 33133574 PMCID: PMC7590319 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.1314] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2019] [Revised: 05/13/2019] [Accepted: 08/23/2019] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
This study was to evaluate and compare the polyphenols contents, antioxidant capacities, and α-glucosidase inhibitory abilities of extractable and nonextractable polyphenols (EP and NEP) in Mopan persimmon. The results showed that total phenols content of NEP was 5 times higher than that of EP, and the hydrolyzed NEP compounds displayed higher antioxidant capacity than EP in vitro by DPPH, ORAC assays. Meanwhile, NEP also exhibited inhibition capacity of α-glucosidase and were higher than that of acarbose. In addition, an in vitro model of gastrointestinal digestion was used for the release of NEP, the polyphenols content and ORAC values were obviously increased in gastric digestion stage. The result indicated that NEP in Mopan persimmon, which has often been overlooked and discarded in the past, possessed higher polyphenols content and antioxidant capacity than EP.

Abstract
Proanthocyanidins (PAs) are a group of polyphenols enriched in plant and human food. In recent decades, epidemiological studies have upheld the direct relationship between PA consumption and health benefits; therefore, studies on PAs have become a research hotspot. Although the oral bioavailability of PAs is quite low, pharmacokinetics data revealed that some small molecules and colonic microbial metabolites of PAs could be absorbed and exert their health beneficial effects. The pharmacological effects of PAs mainly include anti-oxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammation, antimicrobial, cardiovascular protection, neuroprotection, and metabolism-regulation behaviors. Moreover, current toxicological studies show that PAs have no observable toxicity to humans. This review summarizes the resources, extraction, structures, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology, and toxicology of PAs and discusses the limitations of current studies. Areas for further research are also proposed.
