Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipids and carbohydrates perform essential functions in foods. In recent decades, food scientists have studied the effects of carbohydrate-lipid interactions on the functional properties of food. However, the ways in which carbohydrate-lipid complex-derived materials affect the biological system are unknown. In this study, a myristic acid-potato starch complex was created using a simple cooking approach. The complex was employed as a precursor for the fabrication of myristic acid-potato starch complex-based nanostructured materials (MPS-NMs) through a liquid-liquid extraction approach. A study was conducted on the structural and cytotoxic features of the fabricated MPS-NMs. RESULTS Transmission electron microscopy images confirmed the formation of spherical nanostructures, 3-60 nm in size. After 24 h exposure, the chloroform fraction-based and n-hexane fraction-based MPS-NMs increased cell death by ~90% and ~ 82%, respectively. Chloroform fraction-based MPS-NMs (CMPS-NMs) triggers apoptotic cell death in human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). n-Hexane fraction-based MPS-NMs (HMPS-NMs) treated cells have red color-intact nuclei, attributed to necrotic cell death. The CMPS-NMs and HMPS-NMs significantly decreased the mitochondria membrane potential and increased the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. We observed significant downregulation in flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO), Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM), and uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) gene expression levels in the exposed cells of CMPS-NMs and HMPS- NMs. In addition, we found upregulation of glutathione-disulfide reductase (GSR) and glutathione S-transferase A4 (GSTA4) genes in CMPS-NMs, and HMPS-NMs exposure. CONCLUSION The cooking process may lead to the formation of nanostructured material in food systems. Chloroform fraction-based MPS-NMs and HMPS-NMs may contribute to cell metabolic disorders. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly used in a wide variety of applications and products; however, NPs may affect stress response pathways and interact with proteins in biological systems. This review article will provide an overview of the beneficial and detrimental effects of NPs on stress response pathways with a focus on NP-protein interactions. Depending upon the particular NP, experimental model system, and dose and exposure conditions, the introduction of NPs may have either positive or negative effects. Cellular processes such as the development of oxidative stress, the initiation of the inflammatory response, mitochondrial function, detoxification, and alterations to signaling pathways are all affected by the introduction of NPs. In terms of tissue-specific effects, the local microenvironment can have a profound effect on whether an NP is beneficial or harmful to cells. Interactions of NPs with metal-binding proteins (zinc, copper, iron and calcium) affect both their structure and function. This review will provide insights into the current knowledge of protein-based nanotoxicology and closely examines the targets of specific NPs.

A phosphorescence resonance energy transfer-based "off-on" long afterglow aptasensor for cadmium detection in food samples. Talanta 2021; 232:122409. [PMID: 34074399 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2021.122409] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2020] [Revised: 03/28/2021] [Accepted: 04/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Cadmium contamination is a severe food safety risk for human health. Herein, a long afterglow "off-on" phosphorescent aptasensor was developed based on phosphorescence resonance energy transfer (PRET) for the detection of Cd2+ in complex samples which minimizes the interference of background fluorescence. In this scheme, initially the phosphorescence of Cd2+-binding aptamer conjugated long afterglow nanoparticles (Zn2GeO4:Mn) was quenched by black hole quencher 1 (BHQ1) modified complementary DNA. Upon encountering of Cd2+, the aptamer interacted with Cd2+ and the complementary DNA with BHQ1 was released, leading to phosphorescence recovery. The content of Cd2+ could be quantified by the intensity of phosphorescence recovery with 100 μs gate time (which eliminated the sample autofluorescence) with a linear relationship between 0.5 and 50 μg L-1 and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.35 μg L-1. This method was successfully demonstrated for Cd2+ detection in drinking water and yesso scallop samples. The "off-on" phosphorescent aptasensor based on PRET of long afterglow nanomaterials could be an effective tool for Cd2+ detection in food samples.

A Highly Sensitive "on-off" Time-Resolved Phosphorescence Sensor Based on Aptamer Functionalized Magnetite Nanoparticles for Cadmium Detection in Food Samples. Foods 2020; 9:E1758. [PMID: 33261175 PMCID: PMC7760395 DOI: 10.3390/foods9121758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Revised: 11/22/2020] [Accepted: 11/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Cadmium contamination is a severe threat to food safety. Therefore, the development of sensitive and selective cadmium detection strategies is urgently required. The elimination of background autofluorescence generated from the food matrix is critical to the optical assay for cadmium detection. Herein, a time-resolved phosphorescence sensor based on an "on-off" strategy was developed for cadmium determination in food samples. The phosphorescence nanoparticles were used as a luminous material to minimize the interference of background autofluorescence. The cadmium-binding aptamer was immobilized onto the magnetic beads and combined with a black hole quencher 1 (BHQ1) with complementary DNA as the target recognition element. With the presence of cadmium, the cadmium-binding aptamer bound to cadmium specifically and resulted in the release of BHQ1. The free BHQ1 remained in the solution after magnetic separation and quenched the phosphorescence. The phosphorescence intensity was negatively related to the concentration of cadmium. Under optimal conditions, the time-resolved phosphorescence sensor showed a linear response to cadmium concentration within a range from 0.05 to 5 ng mL-1 and with a detection limit of 0.04 ng mL-1. This "on-off" time-resolved phosphorescence sensor was successfully applied for cadmium detection in spring water and clam samples, which provided a rapid and straightforward method.
