Abstract
There have been significant advances in the formulation and stabilization of proteins in the liquid state over the past years since our previous review. Our mechanistic understanding of protein-excipient interactions has increased, allowing one to develop formulations in a more rational fashion. The field has moved towards more complex and challenging formulations, such as high concentration formulations to allow for subcutaneous administration and co-formulation. While much of the published work has focused on mAbs, the principles appear to apply to any therapeutic protein, although mAbs clearly have some distinctive features. In this review, we first discuss chemical degradation reactions. This is followed by a section on physical instability issues. Then, more specific topics are addressed: instability induced by interactions with interfaces, predictive methods for physical stability and interplay between chemical and physical instability. The final parts are devoted to discussions how all the above impacts (co-)formulation strategies, in particular for high protein concentration solutions.'

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 262:130000. [PMID: 38331058 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130000] [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: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
Polysaccharides are employed to modify proteins, forming complexes that enhance the functional properties of proteins, such as emulsification and stability. In this study, myofibrillar protein (MP)-chitosan (CS) complexes were formed between CS and MP under acidic conditions (pH 3.0-6.0). Results showed that CS can improve the solubility and emulsifying properties of MP, and the MP-CS complexes at pH 3.0 and 6.0 had better emulsifying properties. Concurrently, the particle size results indicated that better the emulsifying properties of the complex, the smaller the particle size. Consequently, the characteristics of the MP-CS complexes (at pH 3.0 and 6.0) were investigated. Our analysis using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that the amide I band of MP was blue-shifted with the addition of CS, signifying a decrease in hydrogen bonding within MP. The endogenous fluorescence spectra showcased that the hydrophobicity surrounding the tryptophan residues in the protein changed, leading to enhanced polarity. Thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry further confirmed that the addition of CS improved the thermal stability of MP. These findings provide valuable insights into the interactions between MP and CS. Furthermore, the MP-CS complex can be leveraged to create a Pickering emulsion system for the efficient delivery of bioactive substances.

Abstract
The effects of prior interaction between β-lactoglobulin (βLG) and lauric acid (LA) on their formation of ternary complexes with wheat starch (WS) was studied. Firstly, the interaction between βLG and LA after they were heated at different temperatures between 55 and 95 °C was characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulation. This showed that a greater degree of βLG-LA interaction occurred after heating at higher temperatures. The WS-LA-βLG complexes formed subsequently were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy, which showed that as interaction of βLG and LA increased there was an inhibitory action on the formation of ternary complex with WS. Hence, we conclude that there is competition in the ternary systems between the protein and starch to interact with the lipid, and that stronger interaction of the protein and lipid may hinder the formation of ternary complexes with starch.

Abstract
A protein/polysaccharide colloidal particle was prepared via combined complex coacervation and heat-induction. When the ratio of ovalbumin (OVA) to carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) was at 1:2, loose flexible particles (low Df) with low surface hydrophobicity were obtained. Conversely, dense and compact particles (high Df) were easily formed at a higher OVA/CMC ratio. Only in the appropriate OVA/CMC ratio, pH will have a greater impact on the colloidal particles. At the pH value of 4.4, the OVA/CMC ratio had a greater impact on the colloidal particles compared to pH. The emulsion stabilized by loose particles had a mean particle size of 3888 nm and was easily flocculated and creamed. On the other hand, compact particles formed a stable emulsion, which had a higher exponent of Δr2 (0.867) and could resist flocculation during the 7 days storage. As such, the results showed that stable emulsion could be realized by utilizing compact particles as emulsifiers.

Abstract
In the present study, the synergetic effect and mechanism of ultrasound (US) and slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) on the inactivation of Escherichia coli (E. coli) were evaluated. The results showed that US combined with SAEW treatment showed higher sanitizing efficacy for reducing E. coli than US and SAEW alone treatment. US and US combined with SAEW treatments resulted in smaller particle size of E. coli compared to the control and SAEW treatment. In addition, US combined with SAEW treatment induced the highest potassium leakage. However, the highest protein leakage was recorded in US treatment. Moreover, scanning and transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that the greatest damage of the appearance and ultrastructure of E. coli was achieved after US combined with SAEW treatment. The synergetic effect was also confirmed by CLSM analysis. Fluorescence spectroscopy suggested that treatments of US, SAEW, and US combined with SAEW changed protein conformation of E. coli. Overall, the present study demonstrated that the sterilization mechanism of US combined with SAEW treatment was decreasing the particle size and disrupting the permeability of cell membrane and the cytoplasmic ultrastructure as well as changing protein conformation of E. coli.

Abstract
In the present study, the action mechanism of ultrasound (US) combined with sodium hypochlorite (SH) against Escherichia coli was illustrated by different analysis, including reduction, particle size distribution, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), K+ leakage, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and fluorescence spectroscopy of Escherichia coli. The results showed that ultrasound improved the antimicrobial effect of SH in control of E. coli. No significant difference was obtained in reduction of E. coli, CLSM analysis and K+ leakage between US + SH30 (US + 30 ppm SH) and SH50 (50 ppm SH) treatment. Smaller particle size was recorded in US and US + SH30 treatment. The changes of morphology and intracellular organization of E. coli cells as a result of these treatments were confirmed by SEM and TEM analyses. Fluorescence spectroscopy results indicated SH30, US + SH30 and SH50 treatment caused the burial of tyrosine residues and tryptophan residues as well as increase of hydrophobicity. Therefore, the mechanism of US + SH30 treatment against E. coli involved decreased particle size, damaged membrane and changes of intracellular organization and protein conformation.

Abstract
The influence of sucrose palmitate, Tween 20, and lecithin on the properties of heat-induced aggregates and cold-set gels of β-lactoglobulin was studied based on an experimental mixture design with a fixed total emulsifier concentration. Emulsifiers were added to the protein solution before heating. Aggregate size and absolute values of ζ potential increased with the addition of emulsifiers, among which lecithin had the most pronounced effect. The water retention of the aggregates correlated positively with the aggregate size. Gels had reduced fracture stress and strains with increasing sucrose palmitate and decreasing Tween 20 contents. The fracture properties correlated with the ζ potentials of the aggregates, and larger aggregates led to gels with higher water-holding capacities. The emulsifiers hence influenced the gel properties indirectly via the aggregate properties. The impact of emulsifiers on food structures should therefore be considered when a food product is designed.

Effects of polymerized whey protein on goaty flavor and texture properties of fermented goat milk in comparison with β-cyclodextrin. J DAIRY RES 2018; 85:465-471.

Abstract
Goaty flavor and poor consistency may impact consumer acceptance of fermented goat milk. The undesirable characteristics can mainly be attributed to the presence of short-medium chain free fatty acid (SM-FFA) especially C6-C10 fatty acids and low αs1-casein content in goat milk. This study aimed to investigate the effects of polymerized whey protein (PWP) on goaty flavor as well as the texture properties of fermented goat milk in comparison with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). Samples were evaluated on sensory properties, SM-FFA contents, texture, and apparent viscosity. Compared with control, the fatty acids contents (C6, C8, C10) decreased significantly in fermented goat milk with 0·5% β-CD (22, 71, 54%, respectively) and with 0·7% PWP (45, 58, 71%, respectively). There was a synergistic effect of 0·3% β-CD and 0·6% PWP in decreasing the contents of SM-FFA (C6, C8, C10) sharply by 89, 90, 79%. Under the same percentage of addition, yogurts made with β-CD showed a higher (P < 0·05) apparent viscosity than those with PWP. However, the addition of PWP could increase the texture parameters of fermented goat milk (P < 0·05). Combination of PWP and β-CD presented a more desirable texture and consistency in fermented goat milk. Results indicated that polymerized whey protein can be used to reduce the goaty flavor and improve the texture of fermented goat milk.

Abstract
Sea buckthorn has gained importance as a versatile nutraceutical, due to its high nutritive value in terms of carotenoids content. β-Lactoglobulin (β-LG) is a natural carrier for various bioactive compounds. In this study, the effect of thermal treatment in the temperature range of 25 to 100°C for 15min on the complex formed by β-LG and carotenoids from sea buckthorn was reported, based on fluorescence spectroscopy, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation results. Also, the berries extracts were analyzed for their carotenoids content. The chromatographic profile of the sea buckthorn extracts revealed the presence of zeaxanthin and β-carotene, as major compounds. The Stern-Volmer constants and binding parameters between β-LG and β-carotene were estimated based on quenching experiments. When thermally treating the β-LG-carotenoids mixtures, an increase in intrinsic and extrinsic fluorescence intensity up to 90°C was observed, together with blue-shifts in maximum emission in the lower temperature range and red-shifts at higher temperature. Based on fluorescence spectroscopy results, the unfolding of the protein molecules at high temperature was suggested. Detailed information obtained at atomic level revealed that events taking place in the complex heated at high temperature caused important changes in the β-carotene binding site, therefore leading to a more thermodynamically stable assembly. This study can be used to understand the changes occurring at molecular level that could help food operators to design new ingredients and functional foods, and to optimize the processing methods in order to obtain healthier food products.

Abstract
Protein conformational changes were demonstrated in biopolymer nanoparticles, and molecular forces were studied to elucidate the formation and stabilization mechanism of biopolymer nanoparticles. The biopolymer nanoparticles were prepared by heating electrostatic complexes of whey protein isolate (WPI)-dextran conjugate (WD) and chondroitin sulfate (ChS) above the denaturation temperature and near the isoelectric point of WPI. The internal characteristics of biopolymer nanoparticles were analyzed by several spectroscopic techniques. Results showed that grafted dextran significantly (p < 0.05) prevented the formation of large aggregates of WD dispersion during heat treatment. However, heat treatment slightly induced the hydrophobicity changes of the microenvironment around fluorophores of WD. ChS electrostatic interaction with WD changed the fluorescence intensity of WD regardless of heat treatment. Far-UV circular dichroism (CD) and attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopies confirmed that glycosylation and ionic polysaccharide did not significantly cause protein conformational changes in WD and ChS (WDC) during heat treatment. In addition, hydrophobic bonds were the major molecular force for the formation and stabilization of biopolymer nanoparticles. However, hydrogen bonds slightly influenced their formation and stabilization. Ionic bonds only promoted the formation of biopolymer nanoparticles, while disulfide bonds partly contributed to their stability. This work will be beneficial to understand protein conformational changes and molecular forces in biopolymer nanoparticles, and to prepare the stable biopolymer nanoparticles from heating electrostatic complexes of native or glycosylated protein and polysaccharide.

Abstract
In this study the effect of surface modification of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) on its adsorption capacities and protein stability after immobilization of beta-lactoglobulin B (BLG-B) was investigated. For this purpose, non-functionalized (KIT-6) and aminopropyl-functionalized cubic Ia3d mesoporous silica ([n-PrNH2-KIT-6]) nanoparticles were used as nanoporous supports. Aminopropyl-functionalized mesoporous nanoparticles exhibited more potential candidates for BLG-B adsorption and minimum BLG leaching than non-functionalized nanoparticles. It was observed that the amount of adsorbed BLG is dependent on the initial BLG concentration for both KIT-6 and [n-PrNH2-KIT-6] mesoporous nanoparticles. Also larger amounts of BLG-B on KIT-6 was immobilized upon raising the temperature of the medium from 4 to 55 °C while such increase was undetectable in the case of immobilization of BLG-B on the [n-PrNH2-KIT-6]. At temperatures above 55 °C the amounts of adsorbed BLG on both studied nanomaterials decreased significantly. By Differential scanning calorimetry or DSC analysis the heterogeneity of the protein solution and increase in Tm may indicate that immobilization of BLG-B onto the modified KIT-6 results in higher thermal stability compared to unmodified one. The obtained results provide several crucial factors in determining the mechanism(s) of protein adsorption and stability on the nanostructured solid supports and the development of engineered nano-biomaterials for controlled drug-delivery systems and biomimetic interfaces for the immobilization of living cells.
