An J, Liu M, Din ZU, Xie F, Cai J. Toward function starch nanogels by self-assembly of polysaccharide and protein: From synthesis to potential for polyphenol delivery. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125697. [PMID: 37423442 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125697] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/03/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023]
Abstract
Nanogels formed by self-assembly of natural proteins and polysaccharides have attracted great interest as potential carriers of bioactive molecules. Herein, we reported that carboxymethyl starch-lysozyme nanogels (CMS-Ly NGs) were prepared using carboxymethyl starch and lysozyme by green and facile electrostatic self-assembly, and the nanogels served as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) delivery systems. The dimensions and structure of the prepared starch-based nanogels (i.e., CMS-Ly NGs) were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), ζ-potential, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA). FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra together confirmed the formation of CMS; FT-IR spectra confirmed the formation of CMS-Ly NGs; XRD spectra confirmed the disruption of the crystal structure of lysozyme after electrostatic self-assembly with CMS, and further confirmed the formation of nanogels. TGA demonstrated the thermal stability of nanogels. More importantly, the nanogels showed a high EGCG encapsulation rate of 80.0 ± 1.4 %. The CMS-Ly NGs encapsulated with EGCG exhibited regular spherical structure and stable particle size. Under the simulated gastrointestinal environmental conditions, CMS-Ly NGs encapsulated with EGCG showed the controlled release potential, which increased its utilization. Additionally, anthocyanins can also be encapsulated in CMS-Ly NGs and showed slow-release properties during gastrointestinal digestion in the same way. Cytotoxicity assay also demonstrated good biocompatibility between CMS-Ly NGs and CMS-Ly NGs encapsulated with EGCG. The findings of this research suggested the potential application of protein and polysaccharides-based nanogels in the delivery system of bioactive compounds.

Proteins and their functionalization for finding therapeutic avenues in cancer: Current status and future prospective. Biochim Biophys Acta Rev Cancer 2023; 1878:188862. [PMID: 36791920 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbcan.2023.188862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023]
Abstract
Despite the remarkable advancement in the health care sector, cancer remains the second most fatal disease globally. The existing conventional cancer treatments primarily include chemotherapy, which has been associated with little to severe side effects, and radiotherapy, which is usually expensive. To overcome these problems, target-specific nanocarriers have been explored for delivering chemo drugs. However, recent reports on using a few proteins having anticancer activity and further use of them as drug carriers have generated tremendous attention for furthering the research towards cancer therapy. Biomolecules, especially proteins, have emerged as suitable alternatives in cancer treatment due to multiple favourable properties including biocompatibility, biodegradability, and structural flexibility for easy surface functionalization. Several in vitro and in vivo studies have reported that various proteins derived from animal, plant, and bacterial species, demonstrated strong cytotoxic and antiproliferative properties against malignant cells in native and their different structural conformations. Moreover, surface tunable properties of these proteins help to bind a range of anticancer drugs and target ligands, thus making them efficient delivery agents in cancer therapy. Here, we discuss various proteins obtained from common exogenous sources and how they transform into effective anticancer agents. We also comprehensively discuss the tumor-killing mechanisms of different dietary proteins such as bovine α-lactalbumin, hen egg-white lysozyme, and their conjugates. We also articulate how protein nanostructures can be used as carriers for delivering cancer drugs and theranostics, and strategies to be adopted for improving their in vivo delivery and targeting. We further discuss the FDA-approved protein-based anticancer formulations along with those in different phases of clinical trials.

Abstract
The marine microenvironment harbors many unique species of organisms that produce a plethora of compounds that help mankind cure a wide range of diseases. The diversity of products from the ocean bed serves as potentially healing materials and inert vehicles carrying the drug of interest to the target site. Several composites still lay undiscovered under the blue canopy, which can provide treatment for untreated diseases that keep haunting the earth periodically. Cancer is one such disease that has been of interest to several eminent scientists worldwide due to the heterogenic complexity involved in the disease's pathophysiology. Due to extensive globalization and environmental changes, cancer has become a lifestyle disease continuously increasing exponentially in the current decade. This ailment requires a definite remedy that treats by causing minimal damage to the body's normal cells. The application of nanotechnology in medicine has opened up new avenues of research in targeted therapeutics due to their highly malleable characteristics. Marine waters contain an immense ionic environment that succors the production of distinct nanomaterials with exceptional character, yielding highly flexible molecules to modify, thus facilitating the engineering of targeted biomolecules. This review provides a short insight into an array of marine biomolecules that can be probed into cancer nanotherapeutics sparing healthy cells.

Abstract
Some bioactive substances in food have problems such as poor solubility, unstable chemical properties and low bioavailability, which limits their application in functional food. Recently, many egg white protein-based delivery carriers have been developed to improve the chemical stability, biological activity and bioavailability of bioactive substances. This article reviewed the structure and properties of several major egg white proteins commonly used to construct bioactive substance delivery systems. Several common carrier types based on egg white proteins, including hydrogels, emulsions, micro/nanoparticles, aerogels and electrospinning were then introduced. The biological functions of common bioactive substances, the limitations, and the role of egg white protein-based delivery systems were also discussed. At present, whole egg white protein, ovalbumin and lysozyme are most widely used in delivery systems, while ovotransferrin, ovomucoid and ovomucin are less developed and applied. Egg white protein-based nanoparticles are currently the most commonly used delivery carriers. Egg white protein-based hydrogels, emulsions, and microparticles are also widely used. Future research on the application of various egg white proteins in developed new delivery systems will provide more choices for the delivery of various bioactive substances.

Abstract
Traditional bioactive substances are often limited in practical application due to their poor stability and low solubility. Therefore, it is imperative to develop biocompatible high loading microgel carriers. In this study, a novel type of casein-porous starch microgel was prepared under ultra-high-pressure homogenization, by using porous starch with the honeycomb three-dimensional network porous structure. Molecular interaction force analysis and thermodynamic analysis showed that electrostatic interaction played a major role in the formation of microgels. Circular dichroism and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that homogenization and pH were the main factors, which affected the formation and structural stability of microgels. Compared with casein-glutinous rice starch microgels, the encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of phycocyanin in casein-porous starch microgels were increased by 77.27% and 135.10%, respectively. Thus, casein-porous starch microgels could not only achieve a sustained release effect, but also effectively transport phycocyanin to the gastrointestinal tract of zebrafish, while achieving good fluorescence imaging in vivo. Ultimately, the prepared casein-porous starch microgels could enrich the nanocarriers material, and contribute to the research of safe and effective fluorescent imaging materials.

Abstract
Construction of nanoscale delivery systems from natural food biopolymer complexes have attracted increasing interests in the fields of food industries. In this study, novel carboxymethyl konjac glucomannan/ chitosan (CMKGM/CS) nanogels with and without 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) /N-hydroxysuccinimide) (EDC/NHS)-initiated crosslinking were prepared. The physicochemical and structural properties of the CMKGM/CS nanogels and their potential to be a delivery vehicle for curcumin were investigated. Compared to original uncrosslinked nanogels, crosslinking did not alter particle size and morphology but decreased zeta potential of nanogels. Fourier transform infrared spectrum confirmed that the amide linkage was formed between CMKGM and CS, which obviously enhanced the stability of crosslinked nanogels under gastrointestinal conditions. Furthermore, the crosslinked nanogels not only had higher encapsulation efficiency of curcumin but also better sustained release behavior under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. These findings suggested that the crosslinked CMKGM/CS nanogels might be a promising delivery system for nutrients.

Abstract
The interaction mechanism between liposomes (Lips) and whey protein isolates (WPI) with different mass ratios was explored in this paper. After binding with different concentration of Lips, the changes in hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions of WPI were investigated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and pyrene fluorescence probes. The spatial structure changes of WPI were further characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and circular dichroism. The results indicated that the structure of WPI was changed due to binding with Lips in hydrophilic and hydrophobic groups. The binding process might result in the migration, recombination, and alignment of WPI and Lip groups. Moreover, the oil-water interfacial tension with WPI decreased from 9.20 mN/m to 3.29 mN/m upon increasing the Lip-to-WPI ratio. This work suggests that the physiochemical properties of Lip-WPI complexes could be manipulated by adjusting the Lip-to-WPI ratio. This study shed some light on the mechanism explanation of the WPI structural changes due to the interaction with Lips during food processing.

Abstract
The self-assembly of biomacromolecules is an extremely important process. It is potentially useful in the fields of life science and materials science. To carry out the study on the self-assembly of proteins, it is necessary to find out the suitable self-assembly conditions, which have always been a challenging task in practice. Inspired by the screening technique in the field of protein crystallization, we proposed using the same screening technique for seeking suitable protein self-assembly conditions. Based on this consideration, we selected 5 proteins (β-lactoglobulin, hemoglobin, pepsin, lysozyme, α-chymotrypsinogen (II) A) together with 5 screening kits (IndexTM, BML, Morpheus, JCSG, PEG/Ion ScreenTM) to investigate the performance of these crystallization screening techniques in order to discover new optimized conditions of protein self-assembly. The screens were all kept at 293 K for certain days, and were analyzed using optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, atomic force microscope, fluorescence microscope, and atomic absorption spectroscope. The results demonstrated that the method of protein crystallization screening can be successfully applied in the screening of self-assembly conditions. This method is fast, high throughput, and easily implemented in an automated system, with a low protein consumption feature. These results suggested that such strategy can be applied to finding new conditions or forms in routine research of protein self-assembly. KEY POINTS: • Protein crystallization screening method is successfully applied in the screening of self-assembly conditions. • This screening method can be applied on various kinds of proteins and possess a feature of low protein consumption. • This screening method is fast, high throughput, and easily implemented in an automated system.

Building an aprismatic enamel-like layer on a demineralized enamel surface by using carboxymethyl chitosan and lysozyme-encapsulated amorphous calcium phosphate nanogels. J Dent 2021; 107:103599. [PMID: 33561513 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdent.2021.103599] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2020] [Revised: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to prepare carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) and lysozyme nanogels that could encapsulate amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) for achieving its controlled delivery, thus forming an aprismatic enamel-like layer on the demineralized enamel surface. METHODS CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels were developed, and the controlled delivery of ACP from the nanogels was induced by the presence of NaCl. The nanogel morphologies at various NaCl concentrations was measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The particle sizes and zeta potentials (ζ-potential) of the samples were determined using a combined dynamic light scattering/particle electrophoresis instrument. Comparing the remineralization effect of the CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels on the demineralized enamel surface with that of a fluoride treatment, the remineralization effect was examined by nanoindentation tests, X-ray diffraction (XRD), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels were negatively charged spherical structures with a particle size of approximately 300 nm. At high concentrations of NaCl (0.15 M), ACP was dissociated from the disassembled nanogels and transformed into hydroxyapatite (HAP). Groups treated with the CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels showed the regeneration of an aprismatic enamel-like layer on an acid-etched enamel surface, which provided increased mechanical properties (P < 0.05) and a high impermeability (P < 0.01) compared to those of the fluoride-treated group. CONCLUSIONS This research provides a new idea for the stable and controllable delivery of ACP from CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels, which can form an aprismatic enamel-like layer in situ on the surface of demineralized enamel. In regard to further clinical development, this material and method may be promising for treating early enamel caries.

Abstract
Biohybrid colloids were fabricated based on electrostatic complexation between anionic TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TO-CNF) and cationic hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL). By altering the loading of HEWL, physical colloidal complexes can be obtained at a relatively low concentration of TO-CNF (0.1 wt%). At neutral pH, increasing the HEWL loading induces an increase in charge screening, as probed by zeta-potential, resulting in enhanced TO-CNF aggregation and colloidal gel formation. Systematic rheological testing shows that mechanical reinforcement of the prepared biohybrid gels is easily achieved by increasing the loading of HEWL. However, due to the relatively weak nature of electrostatic complexation, the formed colloidal gels exhibit partial destruction when subjected to cyclic shear stresses. Still, they resist thermo-cycling up to 90 °C. Finally, the pH responsiveness of the colloidal complex gels was demonstrated by adjusting pH to above and below the isoelectric point of HEWL, representing a facile mechanism to tune the gelation of TO-CNF/HEWL complexes. This work highlights the potential of using electrostatic complexation between HEWL and TO-CNF to form hybrid colloids, and demonstrates the tunability of the colloidal morphology and rheology by adjusting the ratio between the two components and the pH.

Abstract
Nanogels are three-dimensional nanoscale networks formed by physically or chemically cross-linking polymers. Nanogels have been explored as drug delivery systems due to their advantageous properties, such as biocompatibility, high stability, tunable particle size, drug loading capacity, and possible modification of the surface for active targeting by attaching ligands that recognize cognate receptors on the target cells or tissues. Nanogels can be designed to be stimulus responsive, and react to internal or external stimuli such as pH, temperature, light and redox, thus resulting in the controlled release of loaded drugs. This "smart" targeting ability prevents drug accumulation in non-target tissues and minimizes the side effects of the drug. This review aims to provide an introduction to nanogels, their preparation methods, and to discuss the design of various stimulus-responsive nanogels that are able to provide controlled drug release in response to particular stimuli. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Smart and stimulus-responsive drug delivery is a rapidly growing area of biomaterial research. The explosive rise in nanotechnology and nanomedicine, has provided a host of nanoparticles and nanovehicles which may bewilder the uninitiated reader. This review will lay out the evidence that polymeric nanogels have an important role to play in the design of innovative drug delivery vehicles that respond to internal and external stimuli such as temperature, pH, redox, and light.

Abstract
Proteins and polysaccharides can be used to assemble colloidal delivery systems suitable for industrial applications, such as functional foods, supplements, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products. The purpose of this work was to compare the physicochemical and structural properties of colloidal delivery systems prepared from lysozyme and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) at different biopolymer ratios, pH values, and salt levels. Specifically, the performance of unheated ("complexes") and heated ("microgels") lysozyme-CMC systems were compared. Isothermal turbidity-pH titrations indicated that the critical pH value for complex formation was lower for microgels than for complexes. Complexes were prone to dissociation when the pH or ionic strength was altered due to weakening of electrostatic interactions between the CMC and lysozyme. Conversely, microgels remained intact when the pH or ionic strength was altered, exhibiting swelling or shrinkage rather than dissociation. These results have important implications for the selection of the most appropriate protein/polysaccharide systems to achieve specific functional requirements. Complexes may be more suitable for pH- or salt-based triggered release whereas microgels may be more suitable for sustained release.

Abstract
Nanoassembly (NA) based on a D-α-tocopherol succinate (αTS) conjugated lysozyme (Lys) (Lys-αTS) was fabricated for tumor-selective delivery of curcumin (CUR) for breast cancer therapy. Lys and αTS were used as a biocompatible enzyme and a hydrophobic residue, respectively, for the preparation of nanocarriers in this study. Compared with CUR-loaded cross-linked Lys (c-Lys/CUR) NA, Lys-αTS/CUR NA exhibited a smaller hydrodynamic size (213 nm mean diameter), a narrower size distribution, and a more spherical shape. Sustained drug release was observed from the Lys-αTS/CUR NA for five days at a normal physiological pH (pH 7.4). The developed Lys-αTS/CUR NA showed enhanced cellular accumulation, antiproliferative effects, and apoptotic efficacies in MDA-MB-231 human breast adenocarcinoma cells. According to the results of optical imaging test in the MDA-MB-231 tumor-bearing mouse models, the Lys-αTS/CUR NA-injected group exhibited a more tumor-selective accumulation pattern, rather than being distributed in the normal tissues and organs. The observed tumor targetability of Lys-αTS/CUR was further studied, which revealed improved in vivo anticancer activities (better inhibition of tumor growth and induction of apoptosis in the tumor tissue) after an intravenous administration in the MDA-MB-231 tumor-bearing mouse models. All these results indicate that the newly developed enzyme-based nanocarrier, the Lys-αTS NA, can be a promising candidate for the therapy of breast cancers.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop of a rapid and effective method to occlude dentinal tubules using carboxymethyl chitosan and lysozyme (CMC/LYZ) nanogels with encapsulated amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) based on the transformation of ACP to HAP. In this work, CMC/LYZ was used to stabilize ACP and form CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels, and then the nanogel-encapsulated ACP was applied to exposed dentinal tubule surfaces. The morphology of the nanogels was examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Distribution and quantity of elements in CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels were determined by element mapping and energy dispersive X-Ray spectroscopy (EDX). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, XRD measurements and nanoindentation were applied to check the efficacy of tubular occlusion. TEM revealed that CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels were spherical dense gel particles with size approximately 50-500 nm. Element mapping and EDX indicated that C, N, O, Ca, P, and S in the microspheres are thoroughly represented. SEM images shows that the thickness of the coating layer was approximately 1-2 μm and the depth to which the mineralized substance enters the dentinal tubule was approximately 4-8 μm. XRD measurements and nanoindentation indicated that the occluding mineralized substance observed were similar to nature dentin. CMC can form spherical dense nanogels loaded with ACP under the participation of lysozyme. The CMC/LYZ-ACP nanogels could increase the dentinal tubule occluding effectiveness. These results indicated that finding and developing novel nanomaterials of CMC/LYZ-ACP would be an effective strategy for the treatment of dentin hypersensitivity.
