Nour SA, Foda DS, Elsehemy IA, Hassan ME. Co-administration of xylo-oligosaccharides produced by immobilized Aspergillus terreus xylanase with carbimazole to mitigate its adverse effects on the adrenal gland. Sci Rep 2024; 14:17481. [PMID: 39080323 PMCID: PMC11289116 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-67310-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Carbimazole has disadvantages on different body organs, especially the thyroid gland and, rarely, the adrenal glands. Most studies have not suggested any solution or medication for ameliorating the noxious effects of drugs on the glands. Our study focused on the production of xylooligosaccharide (XOS), which, when coadministered with carbimazole, relieves the toxic effects of the drug on the adrenal glands. In addition to accelerating the regeneration of adrenal gland cells, XOS significantly decreases the oxidative stress caused by obesity. This XOS produced by Aspergillus terreus xylanase was covalently immobilized using microbial Scleroglucan gel beads, which improved the immobilization yield, efficiency, and operational stability. Over a wide pH range (6-7.5), the covalent immobilization of xylanase on scleroglucan increased xylanase activity compared to that of its free form. Additionally, the reaction temperature was increased to 65 °C. However, the immobilized enzyme demonstrated superior thermal stability, sustaining 80.22% of its original activity at 60 °C for 120 min. Additionally, the full activity of the immobilized enzyme was sustained after 12 consecutive cycles, and the activity reached 78.33% after 18 cycles. After 41 days of storage at 4 °C, the immobilized enzyme was still active at approximately 98%. The immobilized enzyme has the capability to produce xylo-oligosaccharides (XOSs). Subsequently, these XOSs can be coadministered alongside carbimazole to mitigate the adverse effects of the drug on the adrenal glands. In addition to accelerating the regeneration of adrenal gland cells, XOS significantly decreases the oxidative stress caused by obesity.

Abstract
The presence of methoxychlor (MXC) in soil and wastewater is considered a nonnegligible environmental threat. Herein, Fe3O4@Fe(0) was obtained by NaBH4 reduction of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and served as a carrier for laccase to construct catalyst. The catalyst was evaluated for the degradation of MXC in treated wastewater and soil with 2, 2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) being used as cocatalyst. The removal rate of MXC in wastewater and soil was found to be 89% and 88% in optimum conditions, and the influences of initial MXC concentration, pH, and temperature on the degradation rate were evaluated. The metabolites including 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, and n-pentane of MXC were identified, and possible degradation mechanisms were proposed. Overall, this work successfully demonstrates not only the ability to degrade MXC in different circumstances but also provides a new idea for environmental remediation in the future.

Abstract
The discharge of chromium (Cr) contaminated wastewater is creating a serious threat to aquatic environment due to the rapid pace in agricultural and industrial activities. Particularly, the long-term exposure of Cr(VI) polluted wastewater to the environment is causing serious harm to human health. Therefore, the treatment of Cr(VI) contaminated wastewater is demanding widespread attention. Regarding this, the bioremediation is being considered as a reliable and feasible option to handle Cr(VI) contaminated wastewater because of having low technical investment and operating costs. However, certain factors such as loss of microorganisms, toxicity to microorganisms and uneven microbial growth cycle in the presence of high concentrations of Cr(VI) are hindering its commercial applications. Regarding this, microbial immobilization technology (MIT) is getting great research interest because it could overcome the shortcomings of bioremediation technology's poor tolerance against Cr. Therefore, this review is the first attempt to emphases recent research developments in the remediation of Cr(VI) contamination via MIT. Starting from the selection of immobilized carrier, the present review is designed to critically discuss the various microbial immobilizing methods i.e., adsorption, embedding, covalent binding and medium interception. Further, the mechanism of Cr(VI) removal by immobilized microorganism has also been explored, precisely. In addition, three kinds of microorganism immobilization devices have been critically examined. Finally, knowledge gaps/key challenges and future perspectives are also discussed that would be helpful for the experts in improving MIT for the remediation of Cr(VI) contamination.

Abstract
β-galactosidase catalyzes lactose hydrolysis and transfers reactions to produce prebiotics such as galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) with potential applications in the food industry and pharmaceuticals. However, there is still a need for improved transgalactosylation activity of β-galactosidases and reaction conditions of GOS production in order to maximize GOS output and reduce production costs. In this study, a β-galactosidase gene, galA, from Bacillus circulans was expressed in Pichia pastoris, which not only hydrolyzed lactose but also had strong transgalactosylation activity to produce GOS. Response surface methodology was adopted to investigate the effects of temperature, enzyme concentration, pH, initial lactose concentration, and reaction time on the production of GOS and optimize the reaction conditions for GOS. The optimal pH for the enzyme was 6.0 and remained stable under neutral and basic conditions. Meanwhile, GALA showed most activity at 50°C and retained considerable activity at a lower temperature 30–40°C, indicating this enzyme could work under mild conditions. The enzyme concentration and temperature were found to be the critical parameters affecting the transgalactosylation activity. Response surface methodology showed that the optimal enzyme concentration, initial lactose concentration, temperature, pH, and reaction time were 3.03 U/mL, 500 g/L, 30°C, 5.08, and 4 h, respectively. Under such conditions, the maximum yield of GOS was 252.8 g/L, accounting for approximately 50.56% of the total sugar. This yield can be considered relatively high compared to those obtained from other sources of β-galactosidases, implying a great potential for GALA in the industrial production and application of GOS.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth most lethal cancer type worldwide. Due to multiple levan applications including anticancer activities, studies related to levansucrase production are of interest. To our knowledge, levan effect on pancreatic cancer cells has not been tested previously. In this work, among eighteen bacterial honey isolates, Bacillus subtilis MT453867 showed the highest levan yield (33 g/L) and levansucrase production (8.31 U/mL). One-factor-at-a-time technique increased levansucrase activity by 60% when MgSO4 was eliminated. The addition of 60 g/L banana peels enhanced the enzyme activity (192 U/mL). Placket Burman design determined the media composition for maximum levan yield (54.8 g/L) and levansucrase production (505 U/mL). The identification of levan was confirmed by thin-layer chromatography, Fourier-Transform Infrared spectrometric analysis, 13C-nuclear-magnetic resonance, and 1H-nuclear-magnetic resonance. Both crude and dialyzed levan completely inhibited the pancreatic cancer cell line at 100 ppm with no cytotoxicity on the normal retinal cell line. The LD50 of crude levan was 4833 mg/kg body weight. Levan had strong antioxidant activity and significantly reduced the expression of CXCR4 and MCM7 genes in pancreatic cancer cells with significant DNA fragmentation. In conclusion, Bacillus subtilis MT453867 levan is a promising adjunct to pancreatic-anticancer agents with both anti-cancer and chemoprotective effects.

Abstract
The current demands of the world's biotechnological industries are enhancement in enzyme productivity and development of novel techniques for increasing their shelf life. Compared to free enzymes in solution, immobilized enzymes are more robust and more resistant to environmental changes. More importantly, the heterogeneity of the immobilized enzyme systems allows an easy recovery of both enzymes and products, multiple reuse of enzymes, continuous operation of enzymatic processes, rapid termination of reactions, and greater variety of bioreactor designs. This review summarizes immobilization definition, different immobilization methods, advantages and disadvantages of each method. In addition, it covers some food industries, protein purification, human nutrition, biodiesel production, and textile industry. In these industries, the use of enzymes has become an inevitable processing strategy when a perfect end product is desired. It also can be used in many other important industries including health care and pharmaceuticals applications. One of the best uses of enzymes in the modern life is their application in diagnose and treatment of many disease especially when used in drug delivery system or when used in nanoform.

Abstract
Plaque-related diseases are amongst the most common ailments of the oral cavity. Streptococcus mutans is the causal agent of dental caries in animals and humans and is responsible for the formation and accumulation of plaques. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the role of the dental plaque isolates and its surrounding environment in plaque formation or inhibition. The study started with the identification of human dental plaque isolates from high caries index patients based on 16S rRNA and Mitis salivarius bacitracin agar (MSB) was used for S. mutans growing. Unexpectedly, the Streptococcus mutans was completely absent. The disc diffusion assay recorded that all the isolates had antimicrobial activity against the S. mutans growth. Enzymes assay revealed that the isolates produced dextransucrase, levansucrase and levanase activity with wide variation degrees. Also, the lactic acid production assay was done based in pH shift assessment. The highest pH shift and dextran yield were detected by the isolates Bacillus subtilis_AG1 and Bacillus mojavensis_AG3. The adherence test revealed that Lysinibacillus cresolivorans_W2 (MK411028) recorded the highest adhesion property (60%). Oligo- and polysaccharides were synthesized by the action of dextransucrase enzyme and their cytotoxicity tests were negative. Dextran with a molecular weight (117521 Da) recorded the highest antimicrobial efficacy against Bacillus subtilis_AG1 and Bacillusmojavensis_AG3 (65%, 63.5%) respectively. The results concluded that the dextran was the most important factor causing the dental plaque pathogenicity. Also, oral oligo- and polysaccharides might play a role in dental plaque control.

Abstract
Five bacterial isolates from honey and bee gut were selected based on their high levansucrase activity and levan yield which were strongly positively correlated. All isolates showed good tolerance to temperature up to 70 °C, to NaCl up to 3 M and to 0.1% H2O2. They maintained over 59 and 64% survival at pH 9.0 and 2.0 respectively, but showed varying tolerance to 0.1% bile salts and pancreatic enzymes. Most isolates were susceptible to widely used antibiotics, but demonstrated diverse antimicrobial activity. Non hemolytic isolates were identified on the basis of 16S rRNA sequencing as Bacillus subtilis HMNig-2 and B. subtilis MENO2 with 97% homology. They exhibited promising probiotic characteristics and achieved highest levansucrase activity of 94.1 and 81.5 U/mL respectively. Both exhibited highest biofilm formation ability in static microtiter plate assay. Also, they achieved 34 and 26% adhesion respectively to Caco-2cells and had highest free radical scavenging activity of 30.8 and 26.2% respectively. The levans of the two isolates showed good antimicrobial activity against some pathogens and exhibited positive prebiotic effect (prebiotic index >1) with Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus reuteri. Results suggest a correlation between levansucrase production, levan yield and pre-probiotic activities of the studied strains.

Abstract
Agarose is a polysaccharide obtained from some seaweeds, with a quite particular structure that allows spontaneous gelation. Agarose-based beads are highly porous, mechanically resistant, chemically and physically inert, and sharply hydrophilic. These features-that could be further improved by means of covalent cross-linking-render them particularly suitable for enzyme immobilization with a wide range of derivatization methods taking advantage of chemical modification of a fraction of the polymer hydroxyls. The main properties of the polymer are described here, followed by a review of cross-linking and derivatization methods. Some recent, innovative procedures to optimize the catalytic activity and operational stability of the obtained preparations are also described, together with multi-enzyme immobilized systems and the main guidelines to exploit their performances.

Immobilization of Glycoside Hydrolase Families GH1, GH13, and GH70: State of the Art and Perspectives. Molecules 2016; 21:molecules21081074. [PMID: 27548117 PMCID: PMC6274110 DOI: 10.3390/molecules21081074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2016] [Revised: 08/11/2016] [Accepted: 08/12/2016] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Glycoside hydrolases (GH) are enzymes capable to hydrolyze the glycosidic bond between two carbohydrates or even between a carbohydrate and a non-carbohydrate moiety. Because of the increasing interest for industrial applications of these enzymes, the immobilization of GH has become an important development in order to improve its activity, stability, as well as the possibility of its reuse in batch reactions and in continuous processes. In this review, we focus on the broad aspects of immobilization of enzymes from the specific GH families. A brief introduction on methods of enzyme immobilization is presented, discussing some advantages and drawbacks of this technology. We then review the state of the art of enzyme immobilization of families GH1, GH13, and GH70, with special attention on the enzymes β-glucosidase, α-amylase, cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase, and dextransucrase. In each case, the immobilization protocols are evaluated considering their positive and negative aspects. Finally, the perspectives on new immobilization methods are briefly presented.

Enzymatic synthesis using immobilized Enterococcus faecalis Esawy dextransucrase and some applied studies. Int J Biol Macromol 2016; 92:56-62. [PMID: 27327909 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2016.06.041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2016] [Revised: 06/08/2016] [Accepted: 06/13/2016] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Dextrans enzymatic synthesis by immobilized Enterococcus faecalis Esawy dextransucrase was studied. Different parameters, such as: enzyme protein concentration (EPC), substrate concentration (SC), temperature and reaction time were evaluated. EPC played a fundamental role in controlling dextran molecular size with 0.1% dextran in reaction mixture. Dextran 38,397 and 125,471Da were yielded at EPC 4.78 and 5.78mg, respectively. Proper dextrans (73,378 and 117,521Da) demanded in pharmaceutical applications were achieved at 6% and 12% sucrose concentrations and at 4.78 and 5.78mg EPC, respectively. Optimum temperature for conversion of glucose to dextran was 30°C (73% and 80% at 5.78 and 4.78mg EPC, respectively). Varieties of maltooligosaccharides (MOS) were yielded by synergistic cooperation between sucrose and maltose. Six MOS and three dextrans samples in vitro have prebiotic effect on Lactobacillus casei with degree of variation. Two samples of MOS with different degree of polymerization (DP) and three samples of dextran with different molecular weight (MW) reported different fibrinolytic activity.
