Abstract
Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) are a potential tumor therapeutic drug and have attracted widespread attention due to their high bioavailability and significant anticancer activity. However, the poor water solubility and degradability of selenium nanoparticles severely limit their application. In this study, spherical selenium nanoparticles with a particle size of approximately 50 nm were prepared by using Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide (SFPS) as a modifier and Tween-80 as a stabilizer. The results of in vitro experiments showed that Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharide-Tween-80-Selenium nanoparticles (SFPS-Tw-SeNPs) had a significant inhibitory effect on A549 cells, with an IC50 value of 6.14 μg/mL, and showed antitumor cell migration and invasion ability against A549 cells in scratch assays and cell migration and invasion assays (transwell assays). Western blot experiments showed that SFPS-Tw-SeNPs could inhibit the expression of tumor migration- and invasion-related proteins. These results suggest that SFPS-Tw-SeNPs may be potential tumor therapeutic agents, especially for the treatment of human lung cancer.

Abstract
A new type of uniformly dispersed selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) was prepared using Antarctic ice microalgae polypeptides (AIMP) as the stabilizer and dispersant. Different characterization techniques and tests show that the SeNPs are effectively combined with AIMP through physical adsorption and hydrogen bonding to form a more stable structure. Orange-red, zero-valence, amorphous, and spherical AIMP-SeNPs with a diameter of 52.07 ± 1.011 nm and a zeta potential of -41.41 ± 0.882 mV were successfully prepared under the optimal conditions. The AIMP-SeNPs had significantly higher DPPH, ABTS and hydroxyl radicals scavenging abilities compared with AIMP and Na2SeO3, and prevented the growth of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by disrupting the integrity of cell walls, cell membranes and mitochondrial membranes. The AIMP-SeNPs had higher gastrointestinal stability compared with SeNPs. Thus, this research highlights the crucial role of AIMP as a biopolymer framework in the dispersion, stabilization, and size management of SeNPs and concludes that AIMP-SeNPs can be exploited as a potent antioxidant supplement and antibacterial substance in foods and medicine.

Phytofabrication of Selenium Nanoparticles with Moringa oleifera (MO-SeNPs) and Exploring Its Antioxidant and Antidiabetic Potential. Molecules 2023; 28:5322. [PMID: 37513196 PMCID: PMC10384841 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28145322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2023] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 06/29/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The advancement in nanotechnology is the trigger for exploring the synthesis of selenium nanoparticles and their use in biomedicine. Therefore, this study aims to synthesize selenium nanoparticles using M. oleifera as a reducing agent and evaluate their antioxidant and antidiabetic potential. Our result demonstrated a change in the color of the mixture from yellow to red, and UV-Vis spectrometry of the suspension solution confirmed the formation of MO-SeNPs with a single absorbance peak in the range of 240-560 nm wavelength. FTIR analysis revealed several bioactive compounds, such as phenols and amines, that could possibly be responsible for the reduction and stabilization of the MO-SeNPs. FESEM + EDX analysis revealed that the amorphous MO-SeNPs are of high purity, have a spherical shape, and have a size of 20-250 nm in diameter, as determined by HRTEM. MO-SeNPs also exhibit the highest DPPH scavenging activity of 84% at 1000 μg/mL with an IC50 of 454.1 μg/mL and noteworthy reducing ability by reducing power assay. Furthermore, MO-SeNPs showed promising antidiabetic properties with dose-dependent inhibition of α-amylase (26.7% to 44.53%) and α-glucosidase enzyme (4.73% to 19.26%). Hence, these results demonstrated that M. oleifera plant extract possesses the potential to reduce selenium ions to SeNPs under optimized conditions with notable antioxidant and antidiabetic activities.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are small-sized, with high surface activity and antibacterial and antioxidant properties. As a result, some NPs are used as functional ingredients in food additives, food packaging materials, nutrient delivery, nanopesticides, animal feeds, and fertilizers to improve the bioavailability, quality, and performance complement or upgrade. However, the widespread use of NPs in the industry increases the exposure risk of NPs to humans due to their migration from the environment to food. Nevertheless, some NPs, such as carbon dots, NPs found in various thermally processed foods, are also naturally produced from the food during food processing. Given their excellent ability to penetrate biopermeable barriers, the potential safety hazards of NPs on human health have attracted increased attention. Herein, three emerging NPs are introduced including carbon-based NPs (e.g., CNTs), nanoselenium NPs (SeNPs), and rare earth oxide NPs (e.g., CeO2 NPs). In addition, their applications in the food industry, absorption pathways into the human body, and potential risk mechanisms are discussed. Challenges and prospects for the use of NPs in food are also proposed.

Preliminary Structural Characterization of Selenium Nanoparticle Composites Modified by Astragalus Polysaccharide and the Cytotoxicity Mechanism on Liver Cancer Cells. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28041561.

Abstract
Astragalus alcohol soluble polysaccharide (AASP) could present superior water solubility and antitumor activity with high concentration. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have received growing attention in various fields, but their unstable property increases the application difficulties. In the present study, functionalized nano-composites (AASP-SeNPs) were synthesized through SeNPs using AASP (average molecular weight of 2.1 × 103 Da) as a surface modifier, and the preliminary structural characteristics and inhibitory mechanism on liver cancer (HepG2) cells were investigated. Results showed that AASP-SeNPs prepared under a sodium selenite/AASP mass ratio of 1/20 (w/w) were uniformly spherical with a mean grain size of 49.80 nm and exhibited superior dispersivity and stability in water solution. Moreover, the composites could dose-dependently inhibit HepG2 cell proliferation and induce apoptosis through effectively regulating mitochondria-relevant indicators including ΔΨm depletion stimulation, intracellular ROS accumulation, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio improvement, and Cytochrome c liberation promotion. These results provide scientific references for future applications in functional food and drug industries.

Abstract
Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have attracted much recent interest as nutraceuticals, while they face great challenges, such as poor stability and low cellular uptake efficiency. This study introduced a facile approach to synthesizing protamine sulfate (PS) functionalized selenium nanoparticles (PS-SeNPs) by using PS as a surface decorator. The monodisperse spherical PS-SeNPs with a particle size of 130 nm and a ζ-potential of +31 mV were ligated with PS through Se-N, Se-O bonds, and physical adsorption, which exhibits excellent physical stability against pH, temperature, and storage time. The positive surface charge of PS-SeNPs contributed to the enhancement of cellular uptake efficiency by endocytosis, which was 3-times higher than bare SeNPs. Compared to SeNPs (IC50 = 17.675 μg/mL), PS-SeNPs could dramatically inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells with an IC50 value of 5.507 μg/mL, as reflected by the induction of apoptosis, S phase arresting, overproduction of intracellular ROS, and depolarization of mitochondria membrane. Overall, these results demonstrated the great potential of PS-SeNPs that can be applied as a functional ingredient in foods and nutraceuticals.

Abstract
The paper presents the positive effect of soybean polypeptides (SP) on the stability and the potential hypolipidemic effect of selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs). After preparing SeNPs, SP with different molecular weight were introduced to stabilize SeNPs. We found that the SP with molecular weight >10 kDa (SP5) had the best stabilizing effect on SeNPs. We inferred that the steric resistance resulting from the long chains of SP5 protected SeNPs from collision-mediated aggregation, and the electrostatic repulsions between SP5 and SeNPs also played a positive role in stabilizing SeNPs. The as-prepared SP5-SeNPs were spherical, amorphous and zero valent. It was proved that SeNPs were bound with SP5 through O- and N- groups in SP5, and the main forces were hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. The bile salts binding assay showed that the SP5-SeNPs exhibited a high binding capacity to bile salts, which indicated their potential in hypolipidemic application.

Abstract
As an essential micronutrient, selenium participates in numerous life processes and plays a key role in human health. In the past decade, selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have attracted great attention due to their excellent functionality for potential applications in pharmaceuticals. However, the utilization of SeNPs has been restricted by their instability and low targeting ability. Since the existing reviews mainly focused on the applications of SeNPs, this review highlights the synthesis of SeNPs and the strategies to improve their stability and targeting ability through surface functionalization. In addition, the utilization of functionalized SeNPs for the single and co-delivery of drugs or genes to achieve the combination of therapy are also presented, with the emphasis on the potential mechanism. The current challenges and prospects of functionalized SeNPs are also summarized. This review may provide valuable information for the design of novel functionalized SeNPs and promote their future application in cancer therapy.

Abstract
In this study, pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) skin polysaccharide–zinc(II) (PSP−Zn) complex was successfully prepared. The structure and physicochemical properties of PSP and PSP−Zn were analyzed. The anti-inflammatory activity of PSP and PSP−Zn was investigated in zebrafish larvae induced by copper sulphate. PSP and PSP−Zn consisted of rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, and galacturonic acid. The molecular weight (Mw) of PSP and PSP−Zn were 3.034 × 106 and 3.222 × 106 Da, respectively. Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR) and circular dichroism (CD) analysis results suggested that the chemical modification of zinc might occur through hydroxyl groups of PSP. The PSP−Zn complex had lamellar texture, smooth surface morphology, and larger particle size. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that both PSP and PSP−Zn were semi-crystalline substances. PSP−Zn solution showed superior stability in a weak acid and alkaline environment, especially at pH = 6.0. Moreover, PSP and PSP−Zn showed a good inhibitory effect on inflammation cells in zebrafish. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) result suggested that the anti-inflammatory mechanism of PSP and PSP−Zn were through downregulation of the expression of nitric oxide synthase 2b (nos2b), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and nuclear factor-kappa B2 (NF-κB2). The present study indicated that PSP−Zn is expected to be a safe and efficient novel zinc supplement with anti-inflammatory activity.

Cancer has become one of the leading causes of death worldwide. It is urgent to develop new antitumor drugs with high efficiency and low toxicity. In this study, an inulin-type fructan CIP70-1 was purified and characterized from chicory and showed weak antitumor activity. To improve its antitumor effects, inulin-based selenium nanoparticles (CIP-SeNPs) were constructed and characterized. CIP-SeNPs were spherical nanoparticles (60 nm), which remained stable in water for more than 3 months. A cellular antitumor assay revealed that CIP-SeNPs had stronger inhibitory effects on cancer cells (MCF-7, A549, and HepG2) than CIP70-1 alone. Furthermore, the in vivo antitumor effects of CIP-SeNPs were confirmed using zebrafish models. The results showed that CIP-SeNPs significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of tumors as well as the angiogenesis of transgenic zebrafish in the concentration range of 1-4 μg/mL.

Abstract
Delivering effectively zero-valent selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) and develop its functions in more fields is still a challenge. Herein, a novel template for the preparation and stabilization of SeNP-based surfactants was developed, amphiphilic sodium alginate (APSA), which can self-assemble into micelles in an aqueous solution. Primarily, physicochemical properties of SeNPs stabilized by APSA with different molecular weights were compared and the interaction mechanism of APSA/SeNPs was investigated. Moreover, a functional Pickering emulsion (PE) was presented using the SeNP-based surfactants. Results showed that high molecular weight-stabilized SeNPs had small particle size (54.72 nm) and great stability due to the hydrogen bonding between Se atoms and APSA. The "soft" particle-decorated SeNPs with interface activity formed a dense interfacial layer on the oil-water interface, which exhibited excellent antioxidant properties. The contents of lipid hydrogen peroxide (LH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were significantly reduced by 88.7% and 63.4%. Overall, SeNPs stabilized by APSA have great application potential as an emulsifier and antioxidant in industrial field.

[PMID: 35631408 PMCID: PMC9143145 DOI: 10.3390/ph15050582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-conjugated biogenic selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) for P2 (purinoceptors) receptor-targeted anti-colon cancer activity were developed in this study. First, the SeNPs were synthesized using Trichoderma extracts (TE) and then conjugated with ATP to enhance their anticancer activity. The developed SeNPs had an oval crystalline structure with an average diameter size of 26.45 ± 1.71 d. nm, while the ATP-SeNPs were 78.6 ± 2.91 d. nm. The SeNPs contain Se, and less persistence of P while the ATP-SeNPs have high level of P, and Se in the energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Further, both nanoparticles exhibited larger sizes in the dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis than in the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. The DLS and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results provide evidence that the amine group (-NH2) of ATP might bind with the negatively charged SeNPs through covalent bonding. The IC50 concentration was 17.25 ± 1.16 µg/mL for ATP-SeNPs and 61.24 ± 2.08 µg/mL against the caco-2 cell line. The IC50 results evidenced the higher cytotoxicity of ATP-SeNPs in the caco-2 cell line than in HEK293 cells. ATP-SeNPs trigger the anticancer activity in the caco-2 cell line through the induction of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) loss and nucleus damage. The biocompatibility test of hemolysis and the egg CAM assay confirmed the non-toxicity of these nanoparticles. Overall, the results proved that the newly developed ATP-SeNPs exhibited higher cytotoxicity in the caco-2 cell line than SeNPs. However, further molecular and in vivo experiments are required to develop the ATP-SeNPs as a candidate drug for cancer-targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) in an aqueous solution have poor stability and tend to aggregate when stored for a long time. In the present study, SeNPs were stabilized by using Lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) and Lycium barbarum protein (LBPr) conjugates (LBPP) as a stabilizer and dispersing agent. Particularly, the LBPP1 was obtained with subcritical water treatment. In addition, the physical stability, re-dispersity and antitumor activity of LBPP1-SeNPs were investigated. The results showed the particle size of LBPP1-SeNPs was maintained at 111.5-117 nm, which was stable at PH 6, 4 °C and darkness for at least 40 days. Besides, the result of TEM showed that the dispersion of LBPP1-SeNPs had more clear layers and smoother surfaces. Moreover, LBPP1-SeNPs had excellent re-dispersibility and exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on HepG-2 cells and Caco-2 cells, respectively (p < 0.05). Therefore, LBPP1-SeNPs can be used as potential selenium nutritional supplements for food and medical applications.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) is an essential element for human health. Se-enriched agricultural products can promote people's intake of Se. Microorganisms play an important role in Se cycling. In this study, two new bacterial strains were isolated from paddy soil and were identified as Chitinophaga sp. and Comamonas testosteroni, respectively. More than 44% and 39% of 1.0 mM selenite were reduced in 84 h by them using yeast extract as carbon source, respectively. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) results indicated that the reduction product of selenite was nanometer Se. These strains could promote the available Se in soil and the content of Se in rice plants in pot experiments. Organic combined Se in soils was increased up to 35%, accompanied by the 92% and 130% increase of Se in rice plants. To our best knowledge, this is the first report of Se reduction by Chitinophaga. This work might provide a prospective strategy for microbial fortification of Se in corps.

Abstract
Lycium barbarum polysaccharides (LBP) with different molecular weights (LBP1, LBP2 and LBP3) of 92,441 Da, 7714 Da, and 3188 Da were used as stabilizers and capping agents to prepare uniformly dispersed selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), and determined the storage stability. In addition, the anti-fatigue activity of LBP-decorated SeNPs with the best stability (LBP1-SeNPs) was estimated by using forced swimming test. The results showed that LBP1-SeNPs exhibited smaller particle size and more excellent stability than those of LBP2-SeNPs and LBP3-SeNPs when the storage time was extended to 30 days, and the average particle size was maintained at about 105.4 nm. The exhaustion swimming time of all tested dose groups of LBP1-SeNPs was significantly longer than the control group (p < 0.05), and the high-dose group among them was even obviously longer than the positive group (p < 0.05). The results of glycogen, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), blood lactic acid (BLA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were further confirmed that LBP1-SeNPs could relieve fatigue by increasing the reserve of glycogen, enhancing antioxidant enzyme levels and regulating metabolic mechanism. These results demonstrated that LBP1-SeNPs could be developed as a potential anti-fatigue nutritional supplement.

Abstract
Nutraceuticals are defined as foods or their extracts that have a demonstrably positive effect on human health. According to the decision of the European Food Safety Authority, this positive effect, the so-called health claim, must be clearly demonstrated best by performed tests. Nutraceuticals include dietary supplements and functional foods. These special foods thus affect human health and can positively affect the immune system and strengthen it even in these turbulent times, when the human population is exposed to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of these special foods are supplemented with nanoparticles of active substances or processed into nanoformulations. The benefits of nanoparticles in this case include enhanced bioavailability, controlled release, and increased stability. Lipid-based delivery systems and the encapsulation of nutraceuticals are mainly used for the enrichment of food products with these health-promoting compounds. This contribution summarizes the current state of the research and development of effective nanonutraceuticals influencing the body's immune responses, such as vitamins (C, D, E, B12, folic acid), minerals (Zn, Fe, Se), antioxidants (carotenoids, coenzyme Q10, polyphenols, curcumin), omega-3 fatty acids, and probiotics.
