[PMID: 39245064 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.131436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
Glycyrrhetinicacid (GA) is a high-value pentacyclic triterpenoid with broad applications. However, the industrial production of GA is hindered by low yield and the accumulation of the intermediate product GlycyrrhetinicAcid3-O-Mono-β-D-Glucuronide (GAMG). This study first identified a novel β-glucuronidase (AcGUS) from Aspergillus calidoustus CLH-22 through transcriptomic analysis, demonstrating a substrate preference for GAMG. Subsequently, mutant AcGUS3G461C/Q462H/I575K with significantly improved activity (kcat/Km of 11.02-fold) was obtained via computer-aided engineering. Furthermore, the dual-GUS combination strategy was employed for the first timeto construct engineered Pichia pastoris for GA production, offering multiple advantages of enhanced conversion efficiency and reduced fermentation viscosity. Finally, under systematically optimized conditions and employing Glycyrrhizin (GL) as the substrate, the final concentration of GA was 48.73 g/L with a conversion of 97.26 % in a 1000-L fermenter, representing the optimal biocatalytic performance reported to date. This study provides new ideas and insights for industrial GA production.

Abstract
In recent years, the worldwide increase in lifestyle diseases and metabolic disorders has been ascribed to the excessive consumption of sucrose and added sugars. For this reason, many approaches have been developed in order to replace sucrose in food and beverage formulations with alternative sweetening compounds. The raising awareness concerning the synthetic sweeteners due to their negative impact on health, triggered the need to search for alternative substances. Natural sweeteners may be classified in: (i) non-nutritive (e.g., neohesperidine dihydrochalcone, thaumatin, glycyrrhizin mogroside and stevia) and (ii) bulk sweeteners, including both polyols (e.g., maltitol, mannitol, erythritol) and rare sugars (e.g., tagatose and allulose). In this review we discuss the most popular natural sweeteners and their application in the main food sectors (e.g., bakery, dairy, confectionary and beverage), providing a full understanding of their impact on the textural and sensory properties in comparison to sucrose. Furthermore, we analyze the use of natural sweeteners in blends, which in addition to enabling an effective replacement of sugar, in order to complement the merits and limits of individual compounds. Finally, microencapsulation technology is presented as an alternative strategy to solving some issues such as aftertaste, bitterness, unpleasant flavors, but also to enhance their stability and ease of use.

Abstract
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza) is a medicinal and food homologue of perennial plants derived from the dried roots and rhizomes of the genus Glycyrrhiza in the legume family. In recent years, the comprehensive utilization of licorice resources has attracted people's attention. It is widely utilized to treat diseases, health food products, food production, and other industrial applications. Furthermore, numerous bioactive components of licorice are found using advanced extraction processes, which mainly include polyphenols (flavonoids, dihydrostilbenes, benzofurans, and coumarin), triterpenoids, polysaccharides, alkaloids, and volatile oils, all of which have been reported to possess a variety of pharmacological characteristics, including anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, anticancer, neuroprotective, antidepressive, antidiabetic, antiparasitic, antisex hormone, skin effects, anticariogenic, antitussive, and expectorant activities. Thereby, all of these compounds promote the development of novel and more effective licorice-derived products. This paper reviews the progress of research on extraction techniques, chemical composition, bioactivities, and applications of licorice to provide a reference for further development and application of licorice in different areas.

Abstract
This study presents an innovative, efficient, environmentally friendly and rapid mechanical inclusion extraction (MIE) method for active ingredients in functional food. 2-hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin was used as the inclusion reagent, and water was used as the extraction solvent in MIE. The experimental parameters affecting the extraction efficiency of the target compounds were systematically investigated using single-factor experiments and surface response methodology optimization. The method showed satisfactory linearity (coefficient of determination > 0.991), precision (0.02 % to 4.89 %), limit of detection (1.1-11.3 ng/mL), and recoveries of 80.4-108.7 % and 86.3-112.3 % at spiked concentration levels of 1 and 5 μg/mL, respectively. Consequently, the MIE method provided a novel green alternative and extended its applications for the simultaneous extraction of hydrophobic and hydrophilic compounds from functional food.

Abstract
Improved human material living standards have resulted in a continuous increase in the rate of obesity caused by excessive sugar intake. Consequently, the number of diabetic patients has skyrocketed, not only resulting in a global health problem but also causing huge medical pressure on the government. Limiting sugar intake is a serious problem in many countries worldwide. To this end, the market for sugar substitute products, such as artificial sweeteners and natural sugar substitutes (NSS), has begun to rapidly grow. In contrast to controversial artificial sweeteners, NSS, which are linked to health concepts, have received particular attention. This review focuses on the extraction technology and biomedical function of NSS, with a view of generating insights to improve extraction for its large-scale application. Further, we highlight research progress in the use of NSS as food for special medical purpose (FSMP) for patients.

Abstract
Licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra) is extensively used owing to the superior pharmacological effects. However, its maximum application potential has not been fully exploited due to the limitation of currently available extraction solvent and methods. In this study, an eco-friendly deep eutectic solvent (NADESs) based ultrasound-assisted extraction (DES-UAE) method was applied to prepare licorice extracts. The DES-UAE using choline chloride and lactic acid as solvent was optimized and modeled by using response surface methodology to maximize the extraction yields of glabridin (GLA) and isoliquiritigenin (ISL). The optimized extracts possessed higher contents of GLA and ISL than available extraction methods, and the enriched products showed superior pharmacological activities in vitro. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and molecular dynamic simulation analyses were performed to deeply investigate the interaction between solvent and targeted compounds. This study not only provides an eco-friendly method for high-efficient extraction of GLA and ISL from licorice but also illustrates the mechanism of the increased extraction efficacy, which may contribute to the application of licorice and deep insight into extraction mechanism using DES.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pressure ulcers are a common issue for people who have limited mobility. This study tested the impact of liquiritin on human keratinocyte HaCaT cell inflammatory damage aroused by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS HaCaT cells were underwent LPS and/or liquiritin incubation. Cell viability, apoptosis and inflammatory molecules interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) expressions, along with nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathways activities were tested by MTT assay, Guava Nexin assay, ELISA and western blotting, respectively. qRT-PCR was done for measuring microRNA-31 (miR-31) expression. miR-31 inhibitor was transfected to silence miR-31. Animal pressure ulcers was established on the dorsal skin of adult rats. The effects of liquiritin on wound healing were analyzed by measuring wound closure rates. RESULTS LPS aroused HaCaT cell inflammatory damage, as evidenced by the decrease of cell viability, increase of cell apoptosis and enhanced expressions of IL-6, TNF-α and Cox-2. Liquiritin protected HaCaT cells against LPS-aroused inflammatory damage through increasing cell viability, decreasing cell apoptosis, and reducing IL-6, TNF-α and Cox-2 expressions. Liquiritin attenuated the LPS-aroused NF-κB and JNK pathways activation in HaCaT cells. Rat pressure ulcers model also confirmed that liquiritin promoted wound healing. In mechanism, miR-31 expression was boosted by liquiritin in HaCaT cells. Silencing miR-31 weakened the impacts of liquiritin on LPS-irritated HaCaT cells. Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) was a target of miR-31 in HaCaT cells. CONCLUSION This research affirmed the beneficial impact of liquiritin on pressure ulcers. Liquiritin reduced LPS-aroused HaCaT cell inflammatory damage might be implemented via raising miR-31 expression, lowering MyD88 expression, and repressing NF-κB and JNK pathways.

Abstract
Noni fruits (Morinda citrifolia) are a source of phenolic bioactive compounds (scopoletin, alizarin, and rutin), which have antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, subcritical water was applied to determine the extraction yields and kinetics of phenolic compounds from noni fruits. The scopoletin and alizarin yields increased with the increase in temperature from 100 to 140 °C, while that of rutin increased up to 120 °C and then decreased at 140 °C. The yields of all the compounds rapidly increased from 1 to 2 mL/min and then slightly up to 3 mL/min of water flow rate. The extraction kinetics were assessed using two mathematical models. The two-site kinetic desorption model had a better fit for all experimental conditions throughout the extraction cycle and best described the extraction kinetics of phenolic compounds from noni fruits. The diffusion coefficients of scopoletin and alizarin at 140 °C and 3 mL/min were 3.7- and 16.2-fold higher than those at 100 °C and 1 mL/min, respectively. The activation energies of alizarin were 2.9- to 8.5-fold higher than those of scopoletin at various flow rates. Thus, subcritical water could be an excellent solvent with higher extraction yields and shorter extraction times using an environmentally friendly solvent.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Oleanane-type pentacyclic triterpenes named glycyrrhetinic acids (GAs) featuring a C-30 carboxylic acid group, are extracted from the licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis). Numerous biological properties of GA have been reported and have attracted researchers from all over the world in recent years due to the peculiar GA scaffold-based semisynthetic cytotoxic effects. AREAS COVERED This review represents the applications of semisynthetic derivatives of GA for the development of future cancer treatments. Included in the review are important structural features of the semisynthetic GAs crucial for cytotoxic effects. EXPERT OPINION Numerous semisynthetic GA derivatives illustrated excellent cytotoxic effects toward various cancer cells. Notably the C-3(OH) at ring A along with C30-CO2H at ring E as vital structural features, make GA very appealing as a lead scaffold for medicinal chemistry, since these two groups permit the creation of further chemical diversity geared toward improved cytotoxic effects. Furthermore, numerous GA derivatives have been synthesized and indicate that compounds featuring cyanoenone moieties in ring A, or compounds having the amino group or nitrogen comprising heterocycles and hybrids thereof, illustrate more potent cytotoxicity. Furthermore, GA has a great capability to be conjugated with other anticancer molecules to synergistically enhance their combined cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system that is mainly mediated by pathological T-cells. Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a well-known animal model of MS that is used to study the underlying mechanism and offers a theoretical basis for developing a novel therapy for MS. Good therapeutic effects have been observed after the administration of natural compounds and their derivatives as treatments for EAE. However, there has been a severe lag in the research and development of drug mechanisms related to MS. This review examines natural products that have the potential to effectively treat MS.

Sub- and Supercritical Extraction of Slovenian Hops ( Humulus lupulus L.) Aurora Variety Using Different Solvents. PLANTS 2021; 10:plants10061137. [PMID: 34205132 PMCID: PMC8229442 DOI: 10.3390/plants10061137] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2021] [Revised: 05/27/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
This work investigates the efficiency of supercritical fluid extraction of hops with a variety of solvents including carbon dioxide (CO2), propane, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), and dimethyl ether (DME) at various densities (low-density and high-density). Operating parameters were 50 bar, 100 bar and 150 bar and 20 °C, 40 °C, 60 °C and 80 °C for all solvents, respectively. The influence of process parameters on the total yield of extraction and content of bitter acids in the extracts has been investigated. The mathematical model based on Fick's second law well described the experimental extraction results. Furthermore, HPLC analysis has been used to determine α- and β-acids in extracts. The yield of bitter compounds in hop extracts was largely influenced by the type of solvent, the temperature and pressure applied during extraction. The results show that CO2 and propane were roughly equivalent to DME in solvating power, while SF6 was a poor solvent at the same conditions. The highest yield as well as the highest concentration of bitter acids in extracts were obtained by using DME, where the optimal operating conditions were 40 °C and 100 bar for the extraction of α-acids (max. concentration 9.6%), 60 °C and 50 bar for the extraction of β-acids (4.5%) and 60 °C and 150 bar for the maximum extraction yield (25.6%).

Abstract
This study aimed at the fabrication of licorice extract (LE)-loaded microparticles by complex coacervation, using chickpea protein isolate (CPI) and soluble fraction of Persian gum (SFPG). The LE-loaded microparticles with the highest encapsulation efficiency (97.87%) and loading capacity (11.35%) were obtained at pH 3 and CPI: SFPG ratio, core: coating ratio, and polymer concentration of 2, 1.5, and 2, respectively. The LE-loaded microparticles (2-15 μm) possessed heterogeneous microstructure, and the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy data confirmed the pronounced effect of electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding. The thermostability, amorphous structure, and color of the LE-loaded microparticles were significantly enhanced, compared to free LE. The sensory evaluation of the model beverages containing LE-loaded microparticles revealed that the microencapsulation was able to mask the bitter aftertaste and color of the extract. Thus, the results of this research confirm the potential of CPI-SFPG complex coacervates for the efficient delivery of glycyrrhizin via incorporation into functional food products.

Abstract
In this work, a green extraction technique, subcritical water extraction (SBWE), was employed to extract active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) from an important Chinese medicinal herb, Salvia miltiorrhiza (danshen), at various temperatures. The APIs included tanshinone I, tanshinone IIA, protocatechualdehyde, caffeic acid, and ferulic acid. Traditional herbal decoction (THD) of Salvia miltiorrhiza was also carried out for comparison purposes. Reproduction assay of herbal extracts obtained by both SBWE and THD were then conducted on Caenorhabditis elegans so that SBWE conditions could be optimized for the purpose of developing efficacious herbal medicine from Salvia miltiorrhiza. The extraction efficiency was mostly enhanced with increasing extraction temperature. The quantity of tanshinone I in the herbal extract obtained by SBWE at 150 °C was 370-fold higher than that achieved by THD extraction. Reproduction evaluation revealed that the worm reproduction rate decreased and the reproduction inhibition rate increased with elevated SBWE temperatures. Most importantly, the reproduction inhibition rate of the SBWE herbal extracts obtained at all four temperatures investigated was higher than that of traditional herbal decoction extracts. The results of this work show that there are several benefits of subcritical water extraction of medicinal herbs over other existing herbal medicine preparation techniques. Compared to THD, the thousand-year-old and yet still popular herbal preparation method used in herbal medicine, subcritical water extraction is conducted in a closed system where no loss of volatile active pharmaceutical ingredients occurs, although analyte degradation may happen at higher temperatures. Temperature optimization in SBWE makes it possible to be more efficient in extracting APIs from medicinal herbs than the THD method. Compared to other industrial processes of producing herbal medicine, subcritical water extraction eliminates toxic organic solvents. Thus, subcritical water extraction is not only environmentally friendly but also produces safer herbal medicine for patients.

Abstract
In this work, steam explosion (SE) was exploited as a green and facile process to deconstruct liquorice's structure and deglycosylate glycyrrhizic acid (GL) to improve conversion and diffusion efficacy of GL and its hydrolyzed products. Results showed SE induced auto-hydrolysis of GL into glycyrrhetic acid 3-O-mono-β-D-glucuronide (GAMG) and glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), by which 30.71% of GL conversion, 5.24% and 21.47% of GAMG and GA formation were obtained. GL hydrolytic pathways were revealed by reaction kinetics and thermodynamics, which possessed complex consecutive and parallel reactions with endothermic, non-spontaneous and entropy-decreasing features. SE referred to cause cleavage of the β-1,3 glycosidic bond in GL which was hydrolyzed to GA as a main product and GAMG and glucuronic acids as minor products. Diffusion of hydrolyzed products was accelerated by raising the diffusion coefficient and shortening the equilibrium time by over 90%. This work provides a sustainable and efficient route for product conversion and function enhancement of bioactive components.

Abstract
Industrial processing of glycyrrhizic leads to a lot of residues which are usually threw away randomly or used as feed. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to study licorice residues as a source of bioactive compounds with potentially applications. In this study, the enrichment and purification of total flavones from the licorice residues was achieved by using macroporous resins. The performances and separation characteristics of four selected macroporous resins with different chemical and physical properties were investigated. HPD-100 resin was the most effective, the content of total flavones increased from 50.94% in the original extract to 82.98% in the 80% ethanol fraction (a 1.63-fold increase). Further purification treatment by polyamide resin, licochalcone A with a purity of 80.28% was obtained in a 45% ethanol fraction, and a higher purity (>85%) of licochalcone A can be obtained by single crystallization operation. And hypoglycemic effect of the total flavones from licorice residues on high fat diet and STZ induced diabetic c57 mice was preliminary investigated. The results showed: the fasting blood glucose of mice in the low and medium dose total flavones group decreased significantly. The proposed technique is uncomplicated, easily managed, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly and is proper for both large-scale licorice residues application and waste management.

Abstract
Flavonoid glycosides and triterpenoid saponins are the main chemical constituents of licorice. In this study, an ionic liquids-ultrasound based extraction (IL-UAE) method was established to simultaneously extract liquiritin (LQ), liquiritin apioside (LA), isoliquiritin (ILQ), isoliquiritin apioside (ILA) and glycyrrhizic acid (GA) from licorice. A series of 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium ILs with different anions and alkyl chain lengths of cations were investigated and compared, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([C4MIM]Ac) was finally selected as the extractant. The extraction parameters of the IL-UAE procedure were optimized, and the established method was validated in linearity, stability, precision, repeatability and recovery. The IL-UAE approach exhibited much higher extraction efficiency comparing with conventional UAE, and needed shorter extraction time and smaller solvent to solid ratio comparing with the pharmacopoeia method. In addition, the microstructures of licorice powders were observed before and after extraction with help of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) in order to explore the extraction mechanism. The results suggested that ILs as green solvents were effective for extraction of flavonoid glycosides and triterpenoid saponins from licorice. An ionic liquids-ultrasound based method for efficient extraction of flavonoid glycosides and triterpenoid saponins from licorice was established.![]()

Abstract
To develop functionally and nutritionally improved tofu, the effects of partial (0.2~0.8%) replacement with licorice powder (LP) on the quality characteristics of tofu were investigated. The pH and turbidity values decreased upon addition of increasing amounts of LP (P<0.05). The yield of LP-supplemented tofu was higher than that of the control tofu, and it increased as the concentration of LP increased (P<0.05). Substituting 0.6% and above of LP significantly hardened the texture of tofu (P<0.05) while control and 0.2~0.4% samples were not significantly different among them (P> 0.05). Lightness significantly decreased with higher LP content in the formulation (P<0.05), as indicated by visual observation that the color of tofu became darker. Redness and yellowness significantly increased (P<0.05). 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid radical scavenging activities significantly increased (P<0.05) with higher substitution of LP, and they were well correlated. Tofu incorporated with LP (0.2~0.8%) had a better shelf life which was approximately 4.32~26.64 h longer than the control tofu at the elevated temperature of 15°C. Finally, consumer acceptance test revealed that supplementation of LP more than 0.4% had an adverse effect on general consumer acceptance. On the basis of the overall observations, tofu samples supplemented with 0.2% (w/w) LP were found to benefit from the functional properties of LP, without compromising consumer acceptance.
