Improving structural and functional properties of starch-catechin-based green nanofiber mats for active food packaging by electrospinning and crosslinking techniques. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131460. [PMID: 38608991 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131460] [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: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
The hydrophilic and low mechanical properties limited the application of starch-based films. In this work, a hydrophobic starch-based nanofiber mat was first successfully prepared from aqueous solution at room temperature by using electrospinning and glutaraldehyde (GTA) vapor phase crosslinking techniques for active packaging applications. Catechin (CAT) was immobilized in the nanofibers by electrospinning, resulting in higher thermal stability (Tdmax = 315.23 °C), antioxidant (DPPH scavenging activity = 94.31 ± 2.70 %) and antimicrobial (inhibition zone diameter = 15.6 ± 0.3 mm) of the fibers, which further demonstrated hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction between CAT and fibers. Nanofibers after GTA vapor phase crosslinking exhibited enhanced hydrophobicity (water contact angle: 15.6 ± 1.5° → 93.5 ± 2.3°) and mechanical properties (tensile strength: 1.82 ± 0.06 MPa → 7.64 ± 0.24 MPa, elastic modulus: 19.35 ± 0.63 MPa → 45.34 ± 0.51 MPa). The results demonstrated that preparation of starch-based electrospun nanofiber mats in aqueous system at room temperature overcame the challenges of organic solvent pollution and thermosensitive material encapsulation, while GTA vapor phase crosslinking technique improved the hydrophobicity and mechanical properties of nanofiber mats, which facilitated the application of starch-based materials in the field of packaging.

A pH-sensitive silica nanoparticles for colon-specific delivery and controlled release of catechin: Optimization of loading efficiency and in vitro release kinetics. Eur J Pharm Sci 2024; 192:106652. [PMID: 38008226 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2023.106652] [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: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/28/2023]
Abstract
Catechin is a naturally occurring flavonoid of the flavan-3-ol subclass with numerous biological functions; however, these benefits are diminished due to several factors, including low water solubility and degradation in the stomach's harsh environment. So, this study aimed to develop an intelligent catechin colon-targeting delivery system with a high loading capacity. This was done by coating surface-decorated mesoporous silica nanoparticles with a pH-responsive enteric polymer called Eudragit®-S100. The pristine wormlike mesoporous silica nanoparticles (< 100 nm) with high surface area and large total pore volume were effectively synthesized and modified with the NH2 group using the post-grafting strategy. Various parameters, including solvent polarity, catechin-carrier mass ratio, and adsorption time, were studied to improve the loading of catechin into the aminated silica nanoparticles. Next, the negatively charged Eudragit®-S100 was electrostatically coated onto the positively charged aminated nanocarriers to shield the loaded catechin from the acidic environment of the stomach (pH 1.9) and to facilitate site-specific delivery in the acidic environment of the colon (pH 7.4). The prepared nanomaterials were evaluated using several methods, including The Brauner-Emmett-Teller, surface area analyzer, zeta sizer, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope, Powder X-Ray Diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy, and Differential Scanning Calorimetry. In vitro dissolution studies revealed that Eudragit®-S100-coated aminated nanomaterials prevented the burst release of the loaded catechin in the acidic environment, with approximately 90% of the catechin only being released at colonic pH (pH > 7) with a supercase II transport mechanism. As a result, silica nanoparticles coated with Eudragit®-S100 would provide an innovative and promising approach in targeted nanomedicine for the oral delivery of catechin and related medicines for treating diseases related to the colon, such as colorectal cancer and irritable bowel syndrome.

Abstract
Tea catechins are a group of flavonoids that show many bioactivities. Catechins have been extensively reported as a potential treatment for skin disorders, including skin cancers, acne, photoaging, cutaneous wounds, scars, alopecia, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and microbial infection. In particular, there has been an increasing interest in the discovery of cosmetic applications using catechins as the active ingredient because of their antioxidant and anti-aging activities. However, active molecules with limited lipophilicity have difficulty penetrating the skin barrier, resulting in low bioavailability. Nevertheless, topical application is a convenient method for delivering catechins into the skin. Nanomedicine offers an opportunity to improve the delivery efficiency of tea catechins and related compounds. The advantages of catechin-loaded nanocarriers for topical application include high catechin loading efficiency, sustained or prolonged release, increased catechin stability, improved bioavailability, and enhanced accumulation or targeting to the nidus. Further, various types of nanoparticles, including liposomes, niosomes, micelles, lipid-based nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, liquid crystalline nanoparticles, and nanocrystals, have been employed for topical catechin delivery. These nanoparticles can improve catechin permeation via close skin contact, increased skin hydration, skin structure disorganization, and follicular uptake. In this review, we describe the catechin skin delivery approaches based on nanomedicine for treating skin disorders. We also provide an in-depth description of how nanoparticles effectively improve the skin absorption of tea catechins and related compounds, such as caffeine. Furthermore, we summarize the possible future applications and the limitations of nanocarriers for topical delivery at the end of this review article.

Abstract
Infectious diseases caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, pose a significant threat to humanity. Persistent and repeated invasive infection with MRSA led to higher morbidity and mortality, and required comprehensive measures in treatment and prevention. Zanthoxylum nitidum (Roxb.) DC. is used as detoxifying, analgesic, and hemostatic herbal medicine for thousands of years. Previously pharmacological studies showed that Z. nitidum had antibacterial bioactivity, but only the MIC of a few compounds, crude extracts, and fractions were reported. In our ongoing endeavor to explore bioactive compounds, two new coumarins, 6-(3-oxo-butyl)-limettin (1) and toddalin I (2), and 24 known compounds were isolated from the roots of Z. nitidum, in which two isoquinoline alkaloids, 6-acetonyl-dihydrofagaridine (16) and 6-acetonyl-dihydrochelerythrine (17) showed anti-MRSA bioactivity in vitro and in vivo. Both 16 and 17 showed synergistic action with ampicillin, which decreased the MIC significantly, and both compounds had a significant ability to destroy bacterial biofilm combined with ampicillin. The combined administration showed a strong scavenging effect on the planktonic bacteria in vitro and cleared skin infection effectively in the model of wound infection in vivo. Furthermore, compound 16 inhibited the efflux of the drug by combining with ampicillin or EtBr, resulting in the MIC decreased obviously. Our investigation supported the traditional use of Z. nitidum in treating infections caused by bacteria, and might provide new natural products to reduce the use of antibiotics and the treatment of drug-resistance bacteria.
