Food Chem X 2024; 21:101128. [PMID: 38292671 PMCID: PMC10826612 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Thirteen kojic acid-coumarin derivatives were synthesized using the principle of molecular hybridization, and their structures were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS. In vitro enzyme inhibition experiments showed that all newly synthesized derivatives have excellent inhibition of tyrosinase (TYR) activity. As a mixed inhibitor, compound 6f has the strongest activity, with an IC50 value of 0.88 ± 0.10 µM. Multispectral experiments have confirmed that the mode of action of compound 6f on TYR was static quenching. In addition, compound 6f formed a new complex with TYR, which increased the hydrophobicity of the enzyme microenvironment, reduced the content of the α-helix in the enzyme, and changed the secondary structure. The experimental results showed that compound 6f effectively inhibited the browning of lotus root slices and had low cytotoxicity. Therefore, compound 6f is believed to have great development potential as a TYR inhibitor in the food industry.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:972. [PMID: 38256044 PMCID: PMC10816276 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2023] [Revised: 12/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Tyrosinase is vital in fruit and vegetable browning and melanin synthesis, crucial for food preservation and pharmaceuticals. We investigated 6'-O-caffeoylarbutin's inhibition, safety, and preservation on tyrosinase. Using HPLC, we analyzed its effect on mushroom tyrosinase and confirmed reversible competitive inhibition. UV_vis and fluorescence spectroscopy revealed a stable complex formation with specific binding, causing enzyme conformational changes. Molecular docking and simulations highlighted strong binding, enabled by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions. Cellular tests showed growth reduction of A375 cells with mild HaCaT cell toxicity, indicating favorable safety. Animal experiments demonstrated slight toxicity within safe doses. Preservation trials on apple juice showcased 6'-O-caffeoylarbutin's potential in reducing browning. In essence, this study reveals intricate mechanisms and applications of 6'-O-caffeoylarbutin as an effective tyrosinase inhibitor, emphasizing its importance in food preservation and pharmaceuticals. Our research enhances understanding in this field, laying a solid foundation for future exploration.

Abstract
Two novel chitosan oligosaccharide (COS)-hydroxypyridone (HPO) conjugates were prepared by reacting chitosan oligosaccharide with 2-chloromethyl-5-hydroxypyridone (HPO), which was synthesized by a series of reactions starting from kojic acid. The degree of substitution of COS-HPO2 reached 1.2, with a yield of 74.9%. The structure of the two conjugates (COS-HPO1 and COS-HPO2) was identified by NMR and FT-IR analysis. The two conjugates showed significantly higher free radical (DPPH•, ABTS+• and •OH) scavenging activity and reducing power than those of COS and HPO (p < 0.05). Both COS-HPO1 and COS-HPO2 possessed significantly stronger tyrosinase inhibitory activity than those of COS, with IC50 values of 0.67 and 0.28 mg/mL for monophenolase, 0.73 and 0.30 mg/mL for diphenolase, respectively. In addition, the conjugates were found to be non-toxic to RAW264.7 macrophages and MRC-5 human lung cells. This work proposes a facile method to enhance the oxidative and tyrosinase inhibitory properties of COS.

Novel Virus Air Sampler Based on Electrostatic Precipitation and Air Sampling of SARS-CoV-2. Microorganisms 2023; 11:microorganisms11040944.

Abstract
The assessment of airborne viruses in air is a critical step in the design of appropriate prevention and control measures. Hence, herein, we developed a novel wet-type electrostatic air sampler using a viral dissolution buffer containing a radical scavenging agent, and verified the concentration of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA in the air of hospital rooms inhabiting coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and public areas. RNA damage caused by corona discharge was negligible when Buffer AVL was used as the collecting electrode. The viral RNA concentration in the air of the room varied by patient: 3.9 × 103 copy/m3 on the 10th day after onset in a mild case and 1.3 × 103 copy/m3 on the 18th day in a severe case. Viral RNA levels were 7.8 × 102 and 1.9 × 102 copy/m3 in the air of the office and food court, respectively, where people removed their masks when eating and talking, but it remained undetected in the station corridor where all the people were wearing masks. The assessment of airborne SARS-CoV-2 RNA using the proposed sampler can serve as a basis for the safe discontinuation of COVID-19 isolation precautions to identify exposure hotspots and alert individuals at increased infection risks.

Abstract
Melasma is a recurrent hypermelanosis disorder characterized by the appearance of brownish and symmetrical spots on the skin. It affects the quality of life and is resistant to available treatment approaches. Cysteamine has been reported as a promising depigmenting agent for melasma treatment and following formulation enhancement, its use is being reported. This review aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the use of depigmenting formulations containing 5% cysteamine in the treatment of patients with melasma. A systematic search was performed in PubMed, Science Direct, and Scielo databases until December 27, 2021, based on criteria selected by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Statistical analysis was performed with Review Manager 5.4 software. The risk of bias was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool for Randomized Trials. A total of six studies containing 120 melasma patients treated with 5% cysteamine were included in this meta-analysis. The meta-analysis demonstrated that 5% cysteamine is effective for the treatment of patients with melasma (MD 6.26 [95% CI 3.68-8.83], p < 0.0001, I2 = 86%). In this review, through meta-analysis allows concluding that 5% cysteamine is effective in the treatment of melasma and presents a low probability of side or adverse effects.

Abstract
The effects of far-infrared radiation drying (FIRD), freeze drying (FD), vacuum drying (VD), and hot air drying (HAD) on appearance, physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities, antityrosinase capacity using B16F10 melanoma cell from seed-used pumpkins (hull-less pumpkin and hull pumpkin) were evaluated. Results suggested that hull-less pumpkin (HLP) dehydrated by FIRD provided the highest total polyphenols content (37.11 ± 1.05 mg GAE/ g DW) and the ability of scavenging free radicals. HPLC analysis exhibited that coumaric acid was predominant phenolic acid in pumpkin. The correlation analysis demonstrated that polyphenolic compounds were related to antioxidant capacity. HLP-FD possessed better colour, higher preservation of β-carotene, ascorbic acid and higher sugar contents compared with HLP-HAD. The highest antityrosinase activity was recorded in HLP-VD with a concentration of 37.16%. The melanin inhibition increased to 76.61%, and intracellular tyrosinase activity in B16F10 melanoma cells decreased to 88.63% at 800 μg/mL of polyphenol extract.

Abstract
Tyrosinase plays an important role in melanin biosynthesis and enzymatic browning of fresh-cut fruit and vegetables. To discover potent tyrosinase inhibitors and antibrowning agents, a series of novel kojic acid derivatives containing bioactive heterocycle moiety (4a-4l) were designed and synthesized. Thereinto, 4d displayed the most potent tyrosinase inhibitory activity with IC50 of 3.23 ± 0.26 μM and behaved as a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 1.96 μM, compared to kojic acid (IC50 = 32.23 ± 2.01 μM). Besides, copper-chelating assay, fluorescence spectrum quenching experiment, ANS-binding fluorescence quenching analysis, and molecular modeling studies indicated that 4d may inhibit tyrosinase activity by chelating with copper ions in the active site of tyrosinase. Furthermore, 4d exhibited low cytotoxic activity and significant antibrowning effects.This study suggests that these compounds may serve as lead molecules for developing novel tyrosinase inhibitors and antibrowning agents.
