Liu Y, Wang Y, Sheng Z, Du Q, Zhang H. New insights into EGCG retards the digestion of wheat starch by α-amylase in ternary system: Comparison with binary systems. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 283:137639. [PMID: 39547637 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.137639] [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: 05/14/2024] [Revised: 08/11/2024] [Accepted: 11/12/2024] [Indexed: 11/17/2024]
Abstract
This study was to investigate the mechanism of the action of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on α-amylase in the ternary simulated system and explore the changes in enzyme structure during the digestion process. Enzymatic kinetics, fluorescence spectroscopy, surface hydrophobicity, fluorescence microscopy, and molecular docking were used to compare (in the presence and absence of EGCG) the structural changes of α-amylase and α-amylase-starch complex, as well as the binding characteristics among EGCG and the α-amylase and starch. The results showed that EGCG had a significant inhibitory effect on α-amylase, and it exhibited a coexistence of competitive and anti-competition inhibition type, and predominantly competitive inhibition. In the ternary and binary systems, the inhibitory mechanisms of EGCG on α-amylase were distinct. In the ternary system, EGCG preferably bound to α-amylase to form α-amylase-EGCG binary complexes rather than α-amylase-starch-EGCG ternary complexes, and altered the structure of α-amylase, leading to unfolding of the enzyme's secondary structure and exposing more non-catalytic site aromatic amino acids.

Harvey DJ. Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021-2022. MASS SPECTROMETRY REVIEWS 2024. [PMID: 38925550 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
The use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well-established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022. As with previous review, this review also includes a few papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review follows the same format as previous reviews. It is divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of computer software for structural identification. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other general areas such as medicine, industrial processes, natural products and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis, particularly in its ability to produce single ions from each analyte and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Abstract
Anthocyanins, as the most critical water-soluble pigments in nature, are widely present in roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and fruit peels. Many studies have indicated that anthocyanins exhibit various biological activities including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, hypoglycemic, vision protection, and anti-aging. Hence, anthocyanins are widely used in food, medicine, and cosmetics. The green and efficient extraction and purification of anthocyanins are an important prerequisite for their further development and utilization. However, the poor stability and low bioavailability of anthocyanins limit their application. Protein, one of the three essential nutrients for the human body, has good biocompatibility and biodegradability. Proteins are commonly used in food processing, but their functional properties need to be improved. Notably, anthocyanins can interact with proteins through covalent and non-covalent means during food processing, which can effectively improve the stability of anthocyanins and enhance their bioavailability. Moreover, the interactions between proteins and anthocyanins can also improve the functional characteristics and enhance the nutritional quality of proteins. Hence, this article systematically reviews the extraction and purification methods for anthocyanins. Moreover, this review also systematically summarizes the effect of the interactions between anthocyanins and proteins on the bioavailability of anthocyanins and their impact on protein properties. Furthermore, we also introduce the application of the interaction between anthocyanins and proteins. The findings can provide a theoretical reference for the application of anthocyanins and proteins in food deep processing.

Abstract
The co-pigmentation behaviour of RuBisCo proteins (with different concentrations) on peonidin-3-O-p-coumaroylrutinoside-5-O-glucoside (P3C5G, extracted from Rosetta potato's peels) conjugates in isotonic sport drinks (ISD) was examined using multispectral, thermal stability kinetics, and libDock-based molecular docking approaches. The colorant effects of RuBisCo on P3C5G were also studied in spray-dried microencapsulated ISD-models. RuBisCo, especially at a concentration of 10 mg/mL in ISD, showed a co-pigmentation effect on the color of P3C5G, mostly owing to its superior hyperchromicity, pKH-levels, and thermal stability. Results from multispectral approaches also revealed that RuBisCo could noncovalently interact with P3C5G as confirmed by libDock findings, where P3C5G strongly bound with RuBisCo via H-bonding and π-π forces, thereby altering its secondary structure. RuBisCo also preserved color of P3C5G in ISD-powdered models. These detailed results imply that RuBisCo could be utilized in ISD-liquid and powder models that might industrially be applied as potential food colorants in products under different conditions.

Food Res Int 2023; 173:113401. [PMID: 37803745 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113401] [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: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/08/2023]
Abstract
β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) is an essential nutrient in milk, but it is the primary allergen causing dairy allergy in humans. Currently, researchers are focusing on using flavonoids to covalently modify β-LG for improving its functionality. However, the impact and underlying mechanisms of rutin covalent modification on the functional properties and allergenicity of β-LG remain unclear. Here, we aim to investigate the changes in allergenicity, digestive characteristics, and antioxidant properties of β-LG after covalent modification using a combination of spectroscopy, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), simulated digestion, and antioxidant assays. The results indicate that rutin forms covalent bonds with the free amino group, sulfhydryl group, and tryptophan of β-LG, leading to alterations in the secondary structure of β-LG. Furthermore, the modified β-LG exhibits improved antioxidant capacity and decreased allergenicity, along with reduced resistance to pancreatin digestion in vitro. This study provides novel insights and strategies to expand the functional application of β-LG.

Abstract
The effect of the covalent binding between anthocyanins extracted from purple potato peels and beta-lactoglobulin (β-Lg) on its ability to fabricate a green/smart halochromic biosensor combined with pullulan (Pul) was studied. The physical, mechanical, colorimetry, optical, morphological, stability, functionality, biodegradability, and applicability of β-Lg/Pul/Anthocyanin biosensors to monitor the Barramundi fish's freshness during storage were entirely evaluated. The docking and multispectral results proved that β-Lg could be successfully phenolated with anthocyanins and subsequently interacted with Pul via H-bonding and other forces which mainly subsequently form the smart biosensors. Phenolation with anthocyanins significantly heightened the mechanical, moisture resistance, and thermal steadiness of β-Lg/Pul biosensors. Anthocyanins also nearly duplicated the bacteriostatic and antioxidant activities of β-Lg/Pul biosensors. The biosensors changed the color associated with the loss in freshness of the Barramundi fish, mostly due to the ammonia production and pH-alteration throughout fish deterioration. Most importantly, β-Lg/Pul/Anthocyanin biosensors are biodegradable and decomposed within ∼30 d of simulated environmental circumstances. Overall, β-Lg/Pul/Anthocyanin smart biosensors could minimize the usage of plastic packaging materials and employ to monitor the freshness of stored fish and fish-stuffs.

Abstract
Pork and grass carp are commonly consumed animal protein sources, classified as red meat and white meat, respectively. This study aimed to better understand the differences in digestive behavior, nutrition, and functionality during digestion between these two types of meat after fat removal. The results showed that grass carp was more easily digested than pork, with a higher degree of hydrolysis, a smaller protein particle size, and a greater release of oligopeptides and amino acids (p < 0.05). During gastric digestion, all α-helix structures were destroyed, and the effect of the whole digestion process on the secondary and tertiary structure of pork protein was greater than that of grass carp. The antioxidant properties of the digestive fluids from the two types of meat showed different strengths in various assays, but the correlation analysis revealed that TCA-soluble peptides, random coil content, and particle size significantly influenced both types of meat. These findings provide new insights into the structural state and antioxidant properties of protein in meat digestion, which contribute to our understanding of the nutritional value of pork and grass carp.

Abstract
Color is an important characteristic of food. Over the last 15 years, more attention has been paid to natural colorants because of the rising demand for clean-label food products. Anthocyanins, which are a group of phytochemicals responsible for the purple, blue or red hues of many plants, offer a market advantage. In addition, anthocyanin-rich foods are associated with protection against cardiovascular disease, thrombosis, diabetes, cancer, microbial-based disorders, neurological disorders, and vision ailments. However, the real health value of anthocyanins, whether as a natural colorant or a functional ingredient, is dependent on the ultimate bioaccessibility and bioavailability in the human body. Many animal and human clinical studies revealed that, after intake of anthocyanin-rich foods or anthocyanin extracts, only trace amounts (< 1% of ingested content) of anthocyanins or their predicted metabolites were detected in plasma after a standard blood draw, which was indicative of low bioavailability of anthocyanins. Protein binding to anthocyanins is a strategy that has recently been reported to enhance the ultimate bioactivity, bioaccessibility, and bioavailability of anthocyanins as compared to anthocyanins delivered without a protein carrier. Therefore, in this review, we address anthocyanin properties in food processing and digestion, anthocyanin-protein complexes used in food matrices, and changes in the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of anthocyanins when bound into anthocyanin-protein complexes in foods. Finally, we summarize the challenges and prospects of this delivery system for anthocyanin pigments.
