Li T, Wang D, Zhang X, Wang L. Structural characterization and binding interaction of rice glutelin fibrils complexing with curcumin. Food Chem 2024; 448:139063. [PMID: 38579555 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2023] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
The rice glutelin (RG), the separated retentate (RGFs) and filtrate (FGFs) fractions from total glutelin fibrils (TGFs) at pH 3.5 were used as carrier for curcumin in this test. The solubility and antioxidant activities of curcumin were improved after binding with protein and fibrils. Compared to other complexes, the RGFs-curcumin complex exhibited a highest curcumin solubility (48.05%) and a superior sustained release property, probably owing to the stable hydrogen bond between the surface groups of fibrils and hydroxyl groups of polyphenols. In addition, thermodynamic parameters revealed that the RG/TGFs/RGFs-curcumin complexes were stabilized by hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, whereas FGFs interacted with curcumin through specific electrostatic interaction. Besides, after interacting with curcumin, the fibrils gathered into coarsened and agglutinated fibrillar aggregates, relating to the increment of a-helix and β-sheet structure. These results suggested that RGFs could be a good alternative for curcumin delivery in food industry.

Abstract
The objective of this work was to investigate the effect of succinylation treatment on the physicochemical properties of black bean proteins (BBPI), and the relationship mechanism between BBPI structure and gel properties was further analyzed. The results demonstrated that the covalent formation of higher-molecular-weight complexes with BBPI could be achieved by succinic anhydride (SA). With the addition of SA at 10% (v/v), the acylation of proteins amounted to 92.53 ± 1.10%, at which point there was a minimized particle size of the system (300.90 ± 9.57 nm). Meanwhile, the protein structure was stretched with an irregular curl content of 34.30% and the greatest processable flexibility (0.381 ± 0.004). The dense three-dimensional mesh structure of the hydrogel as revealed by scanning electron microscopy was the fundamental prerequisite for the ability to resist external extrusion. The thermally induced hydrogels of acylated proteins with 10% (v/v) addition of SA showed excellent gel elastic behavior (1.44 ± 0.002 nm) and support capacity. Correlation analysis showed that the hydrogel strength and stability of hydrogels were closely related to the changes in protein conformation. This study provides theoretical guidance for the discovery of flexible proteins and their application in hydrogels.

Abstract
With the development of nanotechnology, nanoparticles have played an important role in pharmaceuticals, foods and materials, in particular, protein/polysaccharide based composite nanoparticles have received attention from researchers for safety and green production. This paper summarized in detail the preparation methods, applications of protein/polysaccharide nanoparticles (PPNPs) in recent years, especially the mechanism of stabilizing the oil-water interface. Currently, the polysaccharides applied are more traditional, such as chitosan, pectin and carboxymethyl cellulose, so there is still a lot of room for the development of raw materials that can be used to prepare PPNPs. Based on this, we also proposed three promising polysaccharides: seaweed polysaccharide, lycium barbarum polysaccharide and lactobacillus exopolysaccharides, describing their characteristics as well as their application prospects, this article can serve as a reference for interested researchers.

Abstract
The interactions between poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), and lysozyme (Lys) in an aqueous environment at pHs of 2, 4, and 7.4 were discussed considering the experimental data obtained by turbidimetry, electrokinetic and rheological measurements, and FTIR analysis. It was found that the increase in PAA amount reduces the coacervation zone by shifting the critical pHcr1to higher values while the critical pHcr2 remains unchanged. The coacervation zone extended from 3.1-4.2 to 2.9-4.7 increasing the Lys concentration from 0.2% to 0.5%. The zeta potential measurements showed that the PAA-PVA-Lys mixture in water is the most stable in the pH range of 4.5-8. Zero shear viscosity exhibited deviations from additivity at both investigated pHs, and a maximum value corresponding to a maximum hydrodynamic volume was revealed at PAA weight fractions of 0.4 and 0.5 for pHs of 4 and 7.4, respectively. The binding affinity to Lys of PAA, established by molecular dynamics simulation, was slightly higher than that of PVA. The more stable complex was PAA-Lys formed in a very acidic environment; for that, a binding affinity of -7.1 kcal/mol was determined.

Abstract
The current challenges in the food packaging field are, on one side, replacing plastic from non-renewable sources with biopolymers and, on the other hand, generating a packaging material with attractive properties for the consumer. Currently, the consumer is ecologically concerned; the food packaging industry must think ahead to satisfy their needs. In this context, the utilization of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) in this industry presents itself as an excellent candidate for fulfilling these requirements. PECs possess enticing characteristics such as encapsulation, protection, and transportation, among others. On the other hand, diverse types of biopolymers have been used in the formation of PECs, such as alginate, cellulose, gelatin, collagen, and so on. Hence, this paper reviews the use of PECs in food packaging where chitosan forms polyelectrolyte complexes.

Abstract
This study investigated the impact of ionic strength and lipophilicity of bioactive compounds on their interaction with the alkaline soluble pea glutelin fraction (ASF) using the fluorescence quenching technique. A Stern-Volmer quenching constant, KD, of 8.9 ± 0.10, 5.3 ± 0.06, 4.0 ± 0.01, 1.1 ± 0.00, 0.9 ± 0.02, and 0.1 ± 0.00 (×104 M-1) was observed for curcumin-ASF (CuASF), astaxanthin-ASF (AsASF), cholecalciferol-ASF (ChASF), β-carotene-ASF (βCaASF), coenzyme Q10-ASF (Q10ASF), and β-sitosterol-ASF (βSiASF) complexes, respectively. An increase in ionic strength did not significantly change KD, the effective quenching constant K, and the bimolecular quenching rate constant KQ. However, it changed the mode of interaction of the ASF with cholecalciferol, β-carotene, coenzyme Q10, and β-sitosterol from static to static-dynamic quenching. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the morphology formed with protein (spherical nanocomplexes, microaggregates, or fiber-like particles) differed among the compounds. The favorable binding of CuASF, AsASF, ChASF, and βCaASF complexes provides stable matrices for formulating protein-based delivery systems for lipophilic nutraceuticals.

Abstract
The high prevalence of chronic illnesses, including cancer, diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular diseases has become a growing concern for modern society. Recently, various bioactive compounds (bioactives) are shown to have a diversity of health-beneficial impacts on a wide range of disorders. But the application of these bioactives in food and pharmaceutical formulations is limited due to their poor water solubility and low bioaccessibility/bioavailability. Plant proteins are green alternatives for designing biopolymeric nanoparticles as appropriate nanocarriers thanks to their amphiphilic nature compatible with many bioactives and unique functional properties. Recently, emerging plant proteins (EPPs) are employed as nanocarriers for protection and targeted delivery of bioactives and also improving their stability and shelf-life. EPPs could enhance the solubility, stability, and bioavailability of bioactives by different types of delivery systems. In addition, the use of EPPs in combination with other biopolymers like polysaccharides was found to make a favorable wall material for food bioactives. This review article covers the various sources and importance of EPPs along with different encapsulation techniques of bioactives. Characterization of EPPs for encapsulation is also investigated. Furthermore, the focus is on the application of EPPs as nanocarriers for food bioactives.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) and pea protein isolate (PPI) were used as raw materials to prepare nanoparticles. The structures and functional properties of the nanoparticles with three ratios (1:1, 1:2 1:3, CS:PPI) were evaluated. The particle sizes of chitosan-pea protein isolate (CS-PPI) nanoparticles with the ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 were 802.95 ± 71.94, 807.10 ± 86.22, and 767.75 ± 110.10 nm, respectively, and there were no significant differences. Through the analysis of turbidity, endogenous fluorescence spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the interaction between CS and PPI was mainly caused by electrostatic mutual attraction and hydrogen bonding. In terms of interface properties, the contact angles of nanoparticles with the ratio of 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3 were 119.2°, 112.3°, and 107.0°, respectively. The emulsifying activity (EAI) of the nanoparticles was related to the proportion of protein. The nanoparticle with the ratio of 1:1 had the highest potential and the best thermal stability. From the observation of their morphology by transmission electron microscopy, it could be seen that the nanoparticles with a ratio of 1:3 were the closest to spherical. This study provides a theoretical basis for the design of CS-PPI nanoparticles and their applications in promoting emulsion stabilization and the delivery of active substances using emulsions.

Abstract
Single protein [whey protein isolate (WPI) or succinylated whey protein isolate (SWPI)] and composite particles of proteins with chitosan (CS) were tested for their ability to encapsulate and protect curcumin (CUR). Combining protein and CS resulted in changes in zeta-potential and surface hydrophobicity, particularly in the SWPI-H (high degree of succinylation, 90 %) and CS composite particle (H-CS). Furthermore, the secondary and tertiary structures were dramatically altered using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), circular dichroism (CD), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) analyses revealed that H-CS exhibited a soft core-rigid shell morphology due to electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, and H-bond interactions. Fluorescence quenching results demonstrated that H-CS had a higher binding constant (K, 1.69 ×104 M-1) and encapsulation effectiveness (EE, 88.3 %) of CUR. Because of increased binding sites and steric hindrance, CUR was stabilized more effectively in H-CS in photostability and thermostability tests,. These results show that SWPI-CS composite particles can be utilized to build a protection system for water-insoluble nutritional supplements.

Abstract
In this study, the nature of lentil protein-tannic acid (LPTA) interaction and its effect on in vitro pepsin digestion were investigated. LPTA mixtures containing 1% w/v LP and 0.001-0.5% TA were prepared and characterized in terms of particle size, thermal properties, and secondary and tertiary structures. A 20-fold increase in particle size was observed in LPTA0.5% compared to LP control (without TA), indicating aggregation. Static quenching of tryptophan residues within the protein hydrophobic folds was observed. Increasing TA levels also enhanced protein thermal stability. Over 50% reduction in free amino groups of LPTA 0.5%, relative to LP, was observed after pepsin digestion. Cleavage specificity of pepsin and peptidomic profile of LP were modified by the presence of TA in LPTA 0.5%. This study showed that 0.5% w/v TA induced protein aggregation and reduced LP digestibility by hindering the accessibility of pepsin to the protein network, thus modifying the profile of released peptides.

Abstract
New three fabricated chitosan (CS) loaded with fly ash (FA) films were developed in this study. The shell waste of white shrimp was used as a precursor for the isolation of chitin and converted into chitosan by carrying out a deacetylation process. The formation of chitosan was conducted by various preparation steps deproteinization, demineralization, and deacetylation. The degree of deacetylation was found to be 95.2%. The obtained chitosan was used to prepare three different chitosan loaded-fly ash films. The prepared films contained various fly ash: chitosan ratios (2:1, FA-CSF1), (1:1, FA-CSF2), and (1:2, FA-CSF3). The obtained films were characterized using FTIR, XRD, and SEM. The micrograph images of the formed films showed spherical particles with an average size of 10 µm. The surface area, adsorption-desorption properties, thermal stability, and water/fat binding features of the fabricated chitosan films were studied. The results revealed that the prepared films displayed typical BET graphs with surface areas ranging from 2.436 m2 g−1 to 8.490 m2 g−1. The fabricated FA-CSF films also showed high thermal stability at temperatures up to 284.9 °C and excellent water/fat binding capacities. The antibacterial potential of the designed films was screened against E. coli (Gram-negative) and B. cereus (Gram-positive) bacterial strains. The tested solution of CS (1%) exhibited inhibition zones for E. coli and B. cereus as 18.51 mm and 14.81 mm, respectively, while in FA solution (1%), the inhibition zones were found to be 10.16 mm, and 13.57 mm, respectively. The results encourage and open up the new and promising areas of research for applying chitosan extracted from waste materials in biological applications.

Curcumin-Induced Stabilization of Protein-Based Nano-Delivery Vehicles Reduces Disruption of Zwitterionic Giant Unilamellar Vesicles. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27061941. [PMID: 35335305 PMCID: PMC8956123 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27061941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Curcumin-loaded native and succinylated pea protein nanoparticles, as well as zwitterionic giant unilamellar vesicles were used in this study as model bioactive compound loaded-nanoparticles and biomembranes, respectively, to assess bio-nano interactions. Curcumin-loaded native protein-chitosan and succinylated protein-chitosan complexes, as well as native protein-chitosan and succinylated protein-chitosan hollow, induced leakage of the calcein encapsulated in the giant unilamellar vesicles. The leakage was more pronounced with hollow protein-chitosan complexes. However, curcumin-loaded native protein and curcumin-loaded succinylated protein nanoparticles induced calcein fluorescence quenching. Dynamic light scattering measurements showed that the interaction of curcumin-loaded native protein, curcumin-loaded succinylated protein, native protein-chitosan, and succinylated protein-chitosan complexes with the giant unilamellar vesicles caused a major reduction in the size of the lipid vesicles. Confocal and widefield fluorescence microscopy showed rupturing of the unilamellar vesicles after treatment with native pea protein-chitosan and succinylated pea protein-chitosan complexes. The nature of interaction between the curcumin-loaded protein nanoparticles and the biomembranes, at the bio-nano interface, is influenced by the encapsulated curcumin. Findings from this study showed that, as the protein plays a crucial role in stabilizing the bioactive compound from chemical and photodegradation, the encapsulated nutraceutical stabilizes the protein nanoparticle to reduce its interaction with biomembranes.

Maillard-Type Protein-Polysaccharide Conjugates and Electrostatic Protein-Polysaccharide Complexes as Delivery Vehicles for Food Bioactive Ingredients: Formation, Types, and Applications.

Abstract
Due to their combination of featured properties, protein and polysaccharide-based carriers show promising potential in food bioactive ingredient encapsulation, protection, and delivery. The formation of protein–polysaccharide complexes and conjugates involves non-covalent interactions and covalent interaction, respectively. The common types of protein–polysaccharide complex/conjugate-based bioactive ingredient delivery systems include emulsion (conventional emulsion, nanoemulsion, multiple emulsion, multilayered emulsion, and Pickering emulsion), microcapsule, hydrogel, and nanoparticle-based delivery systems. This review highlights the applications of protein–polysaccharide-based delivery vehicles in common bioactive ingredients including polyphenols, food proteins, bioactive peptides, carotenoids, vitamins, and minerals. The loaded food bioactive ingredients exhibited enhanced physicochemical stability, bioaccessibility, and sustained release in simulated gastrointestinal digestion. However, limited research has been conducted in determining the in vivo oral bioavailability of encapsulated bioactive compounds. An in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion model incorporating gut microbiota and a mucus layer is suggested for future studies.

Abstract
In this study, β-glucan interaction with lentil and yellow pea proteins and the effect on in vitro protein digestibility were investigated. Proteins were mixed with β-glucan at mass ratios of 1:0.5, 1:1, and 1:2. The interaction between β-glucan and the proteins was demonstrated by the decrease in transmittance and surface charge and the increase in particle size of the complexes. Bright-field microscopy showed the formation of aggregates between the biopolymers, although increased molecular size was not observed by discontinuous native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Fluorescence microscopy indicated that β-glucan formed aggregates with lentil proteins, while the interaction with yellow pea proteins appeared as distinct phases of protein within the β-glucan network. The in vitro protein digestibility of lentil and pea protein decreased by 27.3 and 34.5%, respectively, in the presence of a β-glucan mass ratio of 1:2. The findings confirm the possibility to modulate protein digestibility by changing the physical characteristics of a food matrix.
