Microencapsulation of roasted mate tea extractives with lasiodiplodan (a (1 → 6)-β-D-glucan) and maltodextrin as combined coating materials: A strategic tool to stabilize and protect the bioactive components. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133615. [PMID: 38960221 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133615] [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: 04/17/2024] [Revised: 06/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/30/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
Microencapsulation has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance the stability and protection of bioactive compounds. In this work, roasted mate tea was microencapsulated using 15 % maltodextrin and lasiodiplodan (0.5-1.25 %) as wall coating materials. The microcapsules were characterized for encapsulation efficiency, hygroscopicity, moisture, water activity, water solubility, dissolubility, scanning electron microscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, colorimetry, antioxidant activity, as well as quantification of phenolic compounds and caffeine. Microencapsulation yields ranged from 44.92 to 56.39 %, and encapsulation efficiency varied from 66.54 to 70.16 by increasing the lasiodiplodan concentration. FT-IR revealed phenolic acids, flavonoids, and polyphenolics. Minor color variations were observed among the samples. Thermal analysis demonstrated the microencapsulates exhibited good thermal stability with no degradation below 250 °C. Encapsulated samples showed high levels of bioactive compounds, suggesting that microencapsulation by spray-drying was a favorable process, where maltodextrin, a low-cost protective agent, when combined with the properties of lasiodiplodan, can be a good option for stabilizing mate extracts.

Abstract
Fungal exopolysaccharides (EPSs) represent an important group of bioactive compounds secreted by fungi. These biopolymers can be utilized individually or in combination with different bioactive substances for a broad range of pharmaceutical field applications, due to their various biological activities, such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anti-diabetic, and anticoagulant effects. The paper presents an up-to-date review of the main fungal polysaccharides (pullulan, schizophyllan, scleroglucan, botryosphaeran, lentinan, grifolan, and lasiodiplodan), highlighting their structures, producing strains, and useful properties in a double position, as controlled release (rate and selectively targeting) drug carriers, but mostly as active immunomodulating and antitumor compounds in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a persistent human pathogen, and the emergence of strains resistant to Acyclovir (ACV, reference drug) shows the urgency to develop new treatments. We report the antiherpetic mechanism of the action of lasiodiplodan (LAS-N, (1 → 6)-β-d-glucan) and its sulfonated derivative (LAS-S3) in vitro and in vivo. LAS-S3 showed anti-HSV-1 action with high selectivity indices for HSV-1 KOS (88.1) and AR (189.2), sensitive and resistant to ACV, respectively. LAS-S3 inhibited >80% of HSV-1 infection in different treatment protocols (virucidal, adsorption inhibition, and post-adsorption effects), even at low doses, and showed a preventive effect and DNA and protein synthesis inhibition. The antiherpetic effect was confirmed in vivo by the cosmetic LAS-S3-CRÈME decreasing cutaneous lesions of HSV-1, including the AR strain. LAS-S3 possessed a broad-spectrum mechanism of action acting in the early and post-adsorption stages of HSV-1 infection, and LAS-S3-CRÈME is a potential antiherpetic candidate for patients infected by HSV-1-resistant strains.

Abstract
Pullulan is a biocompatible and water-soluble exo-polysaccharide produced by primary strains of the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. It is frequently used in the pharmaceutical and food industries. In this study, possible cytotoxic effect of pullulan was assessed using the MTT assay in the human breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line. Micronucleus (MN), micronucleus-FISH (MN-FISH), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD-PCR), and comet assays were used to investigate genotoxic and antigenotoxic effects of pullulan against mitomycin C (MMC) (at MN assay) and hydrogen peroxide (at comet assay) in human lymphocytes. Antigenotoxicity was determined using two different applications: 1 h pretreatment and simultaneous treatment. In the MTT assay, pullulan significantly reduced the cell viability at 15.6-2000 μg/mL compared to the control. No significant alterations in MN rates were found in human lymphocytes treated with different concentrations of pullulan compared to the control. In contrast, co-treatment of pullulan and MMC decreased the frequency of MN in almost all the treatment concentrations and durations compared to the MMC. No significant change was observed in the frequency of the centromere-positive C + or negative C- MNi compared to the positive control. In comet assay, pullulan did not affect comet tail intensity compared to the negative control. On the contrary, pullulan in combination with H2O2 significantly decreased tail intensity at almost all the concentrations compared to the positive control. The changes occurring in RAPD-PCR profiles following pullulan treatments included an increase or decrease in band intensity and gain or loss of bands. These results indicate that exopolysaccharide Pullulan is not genotoxic; moreover, it possesses a protective effect against MMC and H2O2 induced genotoxicity. In breast cancer cells, pullulan induced cytotoxic/anti-proliferative effect.

Abstract
Vitamin B12 (B12) is required for cellular metabolism and DNA synthesis as a co-enzyme; it also possesses anti-reactive oxygen species (ROS) property as a superoxide scavenger. B12 deficiency has been implicated in multiple diseases such as megaloblastic anemia, and this disease can be effectively cured by supplementation of B12. Multiple studies suggest that B12 also benefits the conditions associated with excess ROS. Recently, we have reported that oral high dose B12 decreases superoxide level and renal injury induced by ischemia/reperfusion in mice. Here, we discuss potential mechanism(s) other than decreasing superoxide by which B12 executes its beneficial effects.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Factors increasing the risks for CVD development are related to obesity, diabetes, high blood cholesterol, high blood pressure and lifestyle. CVD risk factors may be treated with appropriate drugs, but prolonged can use cause undesirable side-effects. Among the natural products used in complementary and alternative medicines, are the β-ᴅ-glucans; biopolymers found in foods (cereals, mushrooms), and can easily be produced by microbial fermentation. Independent of source, β-glucans of the mixed-linked types [(1 → 3)(1 → 6)-β-ᴅ-glucans - fungal, and (1 → 3)(1 → 4)-β-ᴅ-glucans - cereal] have widely been studied because of their biological activities, and have demonstrated cardiovascular protective effects. In this review, we discuss the roles of β-ᴅ-glucans in various pathophysiological conditions that lead to CVDs including obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, oxidative stress, hypertension, atherosclerosis and stroke. The β-glucans from all of the sources cited demonstrated potential hypoglycemic, hypocholesterolemic and anti-obesogenicity activities, reduced hypertension and ameliorated the atherosclerosis condition. More recently, β-glucans are recognized as possessing prebiotic properties that modulate the gut microbiome and impact on the health benefits including cardiovascular. Overall, all the studies investigated unequivocally demonstrated the dietary benefits of consuming β-glucans regardless of source, thus constituting a promising panaceutical approach to reduce CVD risk factors.

Abstract
Sulfonated derivatives of lasiodiplodan (LAS-S) with different degrees of substitution (1.61, 1.42, 1.02 and 0.15) were obtained and characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermal and solubility analyses. Antimicrobial, antioxidant and cytotoxic potential were also assessed. The sulfonation was confirmed by FTIR analysis with specific bands at 1250 cm-1 (S=O, strong asymmetrical stretching vibration) and at 810 cm-1 (C-O-S, symmetrical vibration associated with the C-O-SO3 group) in the sulfonated samples. SEM demonstrated that sulfonation promoted morphological changes on the surface of the biopolymer with heterogeneous fibrillary structures appearing along the surface following chemical modification. LAS-S showed high thermal stability, with mass loss due to oxidation at temperatures close to 460 °C. Sulfonation increased the solubility of LAS, and in addition, increased the antimicrobial activity, especially against Candida albicans (fungicidal) and Salmonella enterica Typhimurium (bacteriostatic). Native lasiodiplodan (LAS-N) showed higher OH˙ removal capacity, while LAS-S had higher ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) potential. LAS-N and LAS-S did not demonstrate lethal cytotoxicity against wild and mutant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Samples with higher degree of substitution (1.42 and 1.61) showed lower potential to induce oxidative stress.

Abstract
Liver diseases alter the gut microbiota, but several lactic acid bacteria can reduce the degree of liver damage. The present study investigated whether Lactobacillus buchneri TCP016 reduces the degree of liver damage by modifying the gut microbiota via its exopolysaccharides (EPSs). First, it was illustrated that the main EPS (EPS016; molecular weight = 8.509 × 104 Da) comprised rhamnose, xylose, glucosamine, glucuronic acid, galactose, galacturonic acid, glucose, and mannose in molar ratios of 9.2:3.9:3.8:2.8:2.1:2.0:1.6:1.0. Our data showed that EPS016 alleviated the increase in plasma and hepatic enzyme and cytokine levels, increased superoxide dismutase and glutathione activity, and alleviated bacterial translocation to the liver and mesenteric lymph nodes in vivo. Furthermore, EPS016 ameliorated intestinal mucosal injury and gut flora dysbiosis, thereby decreasing the enrichment of Helicobacteraceae, Lachnospiraceae, and Enterobacteriaceae and increasing the abundance of Lactobacillus, Rikenellaceae, Bacteroidaceae, Bacteroidales_S24-7_group, and Prevotellaceae. These findings indicated that EPS016 inhibits lipopolysaccharides/d-galactosamine-induced liver injury and improves the modification of the gut microbiota.

Abstract
Erythrosine B (ErB) is a cherry pink food colorant and is widely used in foods, drugs, and cosmetics. Quinoline yellow (QY) is a chinophthalon derivative used in cosmetic compositions for application to the skin, lips, and/or body surface. Previously, ErB and QY synthetic dyes were found to induce DNA damage in HepG2 cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular basis underlying the genotoxicity attributed to ErB and QY using the RT2 Profiler polymerase chain reaction array and by analyzing the expression profile of 84 genes involved in cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and DNA repair in HepG2 cells. ErB (70 mg/L) significantly decreased the expression of two genes ( FEN1 and REV1) related to DNA base repair. One gene ( LIG1) was downregulated and 20 genes related to ATR/ATM signaling ( ATR, RBBP8, RAD1, CHEK1, CHEK2, TOPB1), nucleotide excision repair ( ERCC1, XPA), base excision repair ( FEN1, MBD4), mismatch repair ( MLH1, MSH3, TP73), double strand break repair ( BLM), other DNA repair genes ( BRIP1, FANCA, GADD45A, REV1), and apoptosis ( BAX, PPP1R15A) were significantly increased after treatment with QY (20 mg/L). In conclusion, our data suggest that the genotoxic mechanism of ErB and QY dyes involves the modulation of genes related to the DNA repair system and cell cycle.

Abstract
Renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is the most common cause of AKI, which associates with high mortality and has no effective therapy. ELABELA (ELA) is a newly identified 32-residue hormone peptide highly expressed in adult kidney. To investigate whether ELA has protective effects on renal I/R injury, we administered the mature peptide (ELA32) or the 11-residue furin-cleaved fragment (ELA11) to hypoxia-reperfusion (H/R)-injured or adriamycin-treated renal tubular cells in vitro ELA32 and ELA11 significantly inhibited the elevation of the DNA damage response, apoptosis, and inflammation in H/R-injured renal tubular cells and suppressed adriamycin-induced DNA damage response. Similarly, overexpression of ELA32 or ELA11 significantly inhibited H/R-induced cell death, DNA damage response, and inflammation. Notably, treatment of mice with ELA32 or ELA11 but not an ELA11 mutant with a cysteine to alanine substitution at the N terminus (AE11C) inhibited I/R injury-induced renal fibrosis, inflammation, apoptosis, and the DNA damage response and markedly reduced the renal tubular lesions and renal dysfunction. Together, our results suggest that ELA32 and ELA11 may be therapeutic candidates for treating AKI.
