Characterization of herpetrione amorphous nanoparticles stabilized by hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose and its absorption mechanism in vitro. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 268:131744. [PMID: 38663711 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131744] [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: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Herpetrione(HPE) is an effective compound that has been used in the treatment of liver diseases. To improve its dissolution and absorption, herpetrione nanosuspensions was prepared. Nanosuspensions were proved to achieve intact absorption in vivo. However, the transport mechanisms are not fully understood, especially lack of direct evidence of translocation of particulates. In this study, an environment-responsive dye, P4, was loaded into herpetrione amorphous nanoparticles (HPE-ANPs) to elucidate the absorption and transport mechanism of the nanoparticles. And the amount of HPE and nanoparticles in the samples were quantified using HPLC/LC-MS/MS and IVIS with the model of Caco-2 and Caco-2/HT29-MTX. Results demonstrated that HPE is mainly taken up by passive diffusion in the form of free drugs, while HPE-ANPs are internalized by an energy dependent active transport pathway or intracellular endocytosis. It is speculated that HPE-ANPs may change the original entry pathway of drug molecules. Furthermore, the presence of mucus layer and the use of HPMC E15 may contribute to drug absorption to some extent. Transcellular transport study indicates that HPE-ANPs has a poor absorption. In conclusion, the differences in the absorption behavior trends of HPE-ANPs are caused by the difference in particle properties and the form of existence of the drug.

Physicochemical properties of Pickering emulsion fabricated with polysaccharides/pea protein isolate complex and its application in plant-based patty. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128664. [PMID: 38065458 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128664] [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: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
Incorporation of structured liquid oil within plant-based patties can be achieved through the utilization of food-grade Pickering emulsion (PE). Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of PE and its application in plant-based patty. The PEs were formulated using sunflower oil (SO), polysaccharides and protein, and the specific ratios employed were as following: methylcellulose (MC) 2 % only (MP0); MC 1.5 % + pea protein isolate (PPI) 0.5 % (MP1); MC 1 % + PPI 1 % (MP2); xanthan gum (XG) 2 % only (XP0); XG 1.5 % + PPI 0.5 % (XP1); XG 1 % + PPI 1 % (XP2). MP0 and MP1 were unstable as PEs, whereas MP2 and XP groups (XP0, XP1, and XP2) exhibited stability as a PE. In addition, MP2 and all XP groups showed increased oil binding capacity, hydrophobic interaction, thermal stability, crystallization, rheological properties, and oxidative stability, compared to MP0 and MP1. In PE-applied plant-based patties, MP2 and all XP groups had significantly lower cooking loss and higher emulsion stability than SO. Particularly, MP2-employed plant-based patties exhibited significantly improved textural and sensory properties. Therefore, our data suggest that PEs with methylcellulose and pea protein isolate could be an effective replacement of plant oil in plant-based meat analogs.

[PMID: 38275858 PMCID: PMC10815647 DOI: 10.3390/gels10010084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Turmeric extract (TE)-loaded oleogels (TE-OG) was fabricated by an emulsion template technique using xanthan gum (XG) and soy lecithin (SL) as oleogelators. The formulation for TE-OG was optimized using 0.32% XG, 1.2% SL, and 1.0% TE. The optimized TE-OG had a minimal particle size of 810.23 ± 10.68 nm as measured by the dynamic light scattering (DLS) method, and a high encapsulation efficiency (EE) of 96.62 ± 0.56%. Additionally, the optimized TE-OG exhibited a favorable zeta potential of -27.73 ± 0.44 mV, indicating the good stability of the TE-OG due to the electrostatic repulsion between particles. TE-OG formulated with 0.32% XG and 1.2% SL was subjected to frequency sweep testing to evaluate its solid-like rheological behavior. The oil-binding capacity (OBC) of TE-OG was consistently maintained above 99.99%. In vitro digestion of TE-OG demonstrated the potential of the emulsion template for controlled release, with less than 20% of the encapsulated curcumin being released in simulated gastric fluid (SGF), whereas nearly 70% was released in the simulated intestinal fluid (SIF). Moreover, TE-OG affected the rapid release of free fatty acids (FFAs), which have a positive effect on the digestion of triacylglycerols found in soybean oil (SO). TE-OG was further used as an alternative to commercial butter to produce pound cakes, and their rheological properties were compared to those of the pound cake prepared using commercial butter. The pound cake prepared using TE-OG showed a noticeable decrease in hardness from 10.08 ± 1.39 N to 7.88 ± 0.68 N and increased porosity, demonstrating the inherent capability of TE-OG to enhance the overall quality standards of bakery products.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels have become novel strategies to replace solid fats due to safe and plentiful raw material, healthier fatty acid composition, controllable viscoelasticity, and more varied nutrition/flavor embedding. Recently, various oleogelation techniques and novel emulsion gels have been reported further to enrich the potential of polysaccharides in oil structuring, in which a crucial step is to promote the formation of polysaccharide networks determining gel properties through different media. Meanwhile, polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels have good oil holding, nutrient/flavor embedding, and 3D food printability, and their applications as fat substitutes have been explored in foods. This paper comprehensively reviews the types, preparation methods, and mechanisms of various polysaccharide-based oleogels and emulsion gels; meanwhile, the food applications and new trends of polysaccharide-based gels are discussed. Moreover, some viewpoints about potential developments and application challenges of polysaccharide-based gels are mentioned. In the future, polysaccharide-based gels may be flexible materials for customized nutritional foods and molecular gastronomy. However, it is still a challenge to select the appropriate oleogels or emulsion gels to meet the requirements of the products. Once this issue is addressed, oleogels and emulsion gels are anticipated to be used widely.

PHARMACEUTICAL BIOLOGY 2022; 60:2266-2275. [PMID: 36412560 PMCID: PMC9704089 DOI: 10.1080/13880209.2022.2143534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Zeaxanthin is a yellow‑coloured dietary carotenoid widely recognized as an essential component of the macula. It exerts blue light filtering and antioxidant activities, offering eye health and vision benefits. OBJECTIVE This study explores the oral absorption and systemic disposition of zeaxanthin from biopharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic perspectives. MATERIALS AND METHODS In vivo intravenous (5 and 10 mg/kg) and intraportal (5 mg/kg) pharmacokinetic studies were performed to determine intrinsic tissue‑blood partition coefficient, elimination pathway, and hepatic clearance, of zeaxanthin in rats. Moreover, in vitro physicochemical property test, in situ closed loop study, in vivo oral pharmacokinetic study (20 and 100 mg/kg), and in vivo lymphatic absorption study (100 mg/kg) were conducted to investigate the gut absorption properties of zeaxanthin and assess the effects of several lipids on the lymphatic absorption of zeaxanthin in rats. RESULTS Zeaxanthin exhibited poor solubility (≤144 ng/mL) and stability (6.0-76.9% of the initial amount remained at 24 h) in simulated gut luminal fluids. Gut absorption of zeaxanthin occurred primarily in the duodenum, but the major fraction (≥84.7%) of the dose remained unabsorbed across the entire gut tract. Considerable fractions of intravenous zeaxanthin accumulated in the liver, lung, and spleen (21.3, 11.7, and 2.0%, respectively). It was found that the liver is the major eliminating organ of zeaxanthin, accounting for 53.5-90.1% of the total clearance process (hepatic extraction ratio of 0.623). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first systematic study to report factors that determine the oral bioavailability and systemic clearance of zeaxanthin.

Abstract
Curcumin-nanostructured lipid carrier-loaded oleogels (Cur-NLC-OGs) have been developed with biopolymer cryogels as an efficient delivery system to overcome the extremely low water solubility and instability of curcumin. The effect of NLC and biopolymer types on the encapsulation and release of curcumin from Cur-OGs was investigated. Alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and pectin solutions were firstly freeze dried to make biopolymer cryogels and they were mixed with Cur and Cur-NLC to obtain stable and self-standing Cur-OGs and Cur-NLC-OGs, respectively. As compared to Cur-OGs, Cur-NLC-OGs had higher encapsulation efficiency and showed slower release of curcumin under acidic condition. Although Cur-NLC affected the rapid release of free fatty acids, the Cur-NLC-OGs prepared with CMC cryogel was most efficient in delaying lipid digestion. Overall, NLC and CMC-based OGs could be effectively used to improve encapsulation efficiency and control lipolysis of lipid droplets. These results will be advantageous for the development of oleogels with desirable functionality.
