Abstract
The most significant and sensitive antigen protein that causes diarrhea in weaned pigs is soybean 7S globulin. Therefore, identifying the primary target for minimizing intestinal damage brought on by soybean 7S globulin is crucial. MicroRNA (miRNA) is closely related to intestinal epithelium's homeostasis and integrity. However, the change of miRNAs' expression and the function of miRNAs in Soybean 7S globulin injured-IPEC-J2 cells are still unclear. In this study, the miRNAs' expression profile in soybean 7S globulin-treated IPEC-J2 cells was investigated. Fifteen miRNAs were expressed differently. The differentially expressed miRNA target genes are mainly concentrated in signal release, cell connectivity, transcriptional inhibition, and Hedgehog signaling pathway. Notably, we noticed that the most significantly decreased miRNA was ssc-miR-221-5p after soybean 7S globulin treatment. Therefore, we conducted a preliminary study on the mechanisms of ssc-miR-221-5p in soybean 7S globulin-injured IPEC-J2 cells. Our research indicated that ssc-miR-221-5p may inhibit ROS production to alleviate soybean 7S globulin-induced apoptosis and inflammation in IPEC-J2 cells, thus protecting the cellular mechanical barrier, increasing cell proliferation, and improving cell viability. This study provides a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of diarrhea of weaned piglets.

Abstract
Soybean allergen entering the body is the initial step to trigger intestinal allergic response. However, it remains unclear how glycinin, the major soybean allergen, is transported through the intestinal mucosal barrier. The objective of this study was to elucidate the pathway and mechanism of glycinin hydrolysate transport through the intestinal epithelial barrier using IPEC-J2 cell model. Purified glycinin was digested by in vitro static digestion model. The pathway and mechanism of glycinin hydrolysates transport through intestinal epithelial cells were investigated by cellular transcytosis assay, cellular uptake assay, immunoelectron microscopy and endocytosis inhibition assay. The glycinin hydrolysates were transported across IPEC-J2 cell monolayers in a time/dose-dependent manner following the Michaelis equation. Immunoelectron microscopy showed a number of glycinin hydrolysates appeared in the cytoplasm, but no glycinin hydrolysates were observed in the intercellular space of IPEC-J2 cells. The inhibitors, colchicine, chlorpromazine and methyl-β-cyclodextrin, significantly inhibited the cellular uptake of glycinin hydrolysates. The glycinin hydrolysates crossed IPEC-J2 cell monolayers through the transcellular pathway. Both clathrin- and caveolae-dependent endocytosis were involved in the epithelial uptake of the hydrolysates. These findings provided potential targets for the prevention and treatment of soybean allergy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION One of the main allergens in soybeans is glycinin, which seriously impacts the normal lives of allergic people. Previous studies have confirmed that thermal processing and thermal processing combined with ultrahigh-pressure processing could significantly reduce the antigenicity of glycinin. The dominant antigen region of acidic peptide chain A2 of G2 subunit was located by phage display experiment. METHODS In this paper, overlapping peptides and alanine substitution techniques were used to explore the key amino acids that significantly affect the antigenicity of A2 peptide chain. The purity of peptide 1, peptide 2 and peptide 3 was identified by mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography, and the results showed that the purity of the synthesized overlapping peptide was more than 90%. SDS-PAGE showed that the peptide was successfully coupled with bovine serum albumin. The antigenicity of the coupling peptide was tested by ELISA and Dot-Blot, and the allergenicity was detected by reacting with the serum of patients with soybean globulin allergy. CONCLUSION The results showed that peptide 3 has stronger antigenicity and sensitization. Alanine substitution technology allowed one to perform site-directed mutagenesis on peptide 3. Dot-Blot and ELISA tests showed that D259, E260, E261, Q263 and C266 may be the key amino acids that significantly affect the antigenicity of peptide 3. The research presented is of great significance for correctly guiding the production of safe food and preventing the occurrence of food allergic diseases. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 249:126026. [PMID: 37506791 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126026] [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: 03/15/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
This study comparatively analyzed the changes in IgE-reactivity and epitopes in proanthocyanidins A2- (PA-Gly m 6) and B2-Gly m 6 (PB-Gly m 6) conjugates prepared by alkali treatment at 80 °C for 20 min. Similar to the western blot, ELISA also showed a higher reduced IgE-reactivity in PA-Gly m 6 (70.12 %) than PB-Gly m 6 (63.17 %). SDS-PAGE demonstrated that proanthocyanidins A2 caused more formation of >180 kDa polymers than proanthocyanidins B2. Multispectral analyses revealed that PA-Gly m 6 exhibited more structural alteration (e.g., a decrease of α-helical content and ANS fluorescence intensity) to unfold protein structure than proanthocyanidins B2, improving the accessibility to modify Gly m 6 for shielding or destroying conformational epitopes. LC/MS-MS revealed that PA-Gly m 6 conjugates had a lower abundance of allergens, peptides and linear epitopes than PB-Gly m 6 conjugates. Molecular docking showed that proanthocyanidins A2 and B2 reacted with Gln-317 and Asn-94 of epitopes, respectively. Overall, proanthocyanidins A2 is more effective than proanthocyanidins B2 to decrease the IgE-reactivity of Gly m 6 due to more shielding or destruction of conformational epitopes and lower content allergens and linear epitopes, which was attributed to more protein-crosslinks formation and structural changes in PA-Gly m 6 conjugates.

Abstract
Glycinin is an important allergen in soybeans. In this study, molecular cloning and recombinant phage construction were performed to explore the antigenic sites of the glycinin A3 subunit that were denatured during processing. Next, the A-1-a fragment was located as the denatured antigenic sites by indirect ELISA. The combined UHP heat treatment showed better denaturation of this subunit than the single heat treatment assay. In addition, identification of the synthetic peptide showed that the A-1-a fragment was an amino acid sequence containing a conformational and linear IgE site, in which the first synthetic peptide (P1) being both an antigenic and allergenic site. The results of alanine-scanning showed that the key amino acids affecting antigenicity and allergenicity of A3 subunit were S28, K29, E32, L35 and N13. Our results could provide the basis for further development of more efficient methods to reduce the allergenicity of soybeans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycinin is one of the most highly allergenic proteins in soybeans, and G2 is one of the five allergenic subunits of glycinin. Compared with the alkaline chain, the acidic chain A2 of the G2 subunit has strong allergenicity. However, the precise epitopes of A2 and the epitopes destroyed during processing are still unknown. RESULTS In the present study, preparation of two specific antibodies damaged by processing and phage display techniques were applied to locate the antigenic epitopes of glycinin A2 polypeptide chains disrupted by two processing techniques (thermal processing and ultra-high pressure combined thermal processing). Bioinformatics methods were used to predict the possible epitopes of the A2 chain. The A2 chain and its overlapping segments were introduced into T7 phages and expressed on phage shell by phage display. An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to screen for antigenic epitopes that had been disrupted by the two processing technologies. The results showed that the dominant antigenic region disrupted by processing was located mainly in the A2-3-B fragment. The reacting experiment with the serum of allergic patients showed that the A2-3-B fragment protein was not only an antigenic region, but also an allergenic region. The two processing technologies destroyed the allergenic epitopes of A2 chain, thereby reducing the allergenicity of protein. The amino acids where the dominant allergenic region disrupted by processing was located were: 233 AIVTVKGGLRVTAPAMRKPQQEEDDDDEEEQPQCVE268 . CONCLUSION Precise epitopes of the acidic chain A2 in glycinin were identified and epitopes destroyed in two common processing methods were also obtained. The application products of rapid detection of de-allergenicity effect of processed food can be developed according to the location of processed destruction allergenic region, which is of great significance with respect to preventing the occurrence of soybean allergenic diseases. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
11S glycinin is a major soybean antigenic protein, which induces human and animal allergies. It has been reported to induce intestinal porcine epithelial (IPEC-J2) cell apoptosis, but the role of pyroptosis in 11S glycinin allergies remains unknown. In this study, IPEC-J2 cells were used as an in vitro physiological model to explore the mechanism of 11S glycinin-induced pyroptosis. The cells were incubated with 0, 1, 5, and 10 mg·ml−1 11S glycinin for 24 h. Our results revealed that 11S glycinin significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced DNA damage, generated active oxygen, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and increased the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP-3) expression of IPEC-J2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Further, IPEC-J2 cells were transfected with designed sh-NLRP-3 lentivirus to silence NLRP-3. The results showed that 11S glycinin up-regulated the silenced NLRP-3 gene and increased the expression levels of apoptosis-related spot-like protein (ASC), caspase-1, the cleaved gasdermin D, and interleukin-1β. The IPEC-J2 cells showed pyrolysis morphology. Moreover, we revealed that N-acetyl-L-cysteine can significantly inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species and reduce the expression levels of NLRP-3 and the cleaved gasdermin D. Taken together, 11S glycinin up-regulated NLRP-3-induced pyroptosis by triggering reactive oxygen species in IPEC-J2 cells.

Abstract
Food allergy is a pathological immune reaction triggered by normal innocuous dietary proteins. Soybean is widely used in many food products and has long been recognized as a source of high-quality proteins. However, soybean is listed as one of the 8 most significant food allergens. The prevalence of soybean allergy is increasing worldwide and impacts the quality of life of patients. Currently, the only strategy to manage food allergy relies on strict avoidance of the offending food. Nutritional supplementation is a new prevention strategy which is currently under evaluation. Selenium (Se), as one of the essential micronutrients for humans and animals, carries out biological effects through its incorporation into selenoproteins. The use of interventions with micronutrients, like Se, might be an interesting new approach. In this review we describe the involvement of Se in a variety of processes, including maintaining immune homeostasis, preventing free radical damage, and modulating the gut microbiome, all of which may contribute to in both the prevention and treatment of food allergy. Se interventions could be an interesting new approach for future treatment strategies to manage soybean allergy, and food allergy in general, and could help to improve the quality of life for food allergic patients.

Abstract
Increased triglyceride, cholesterol, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels cause hyperlipidemia. Despite the availability of statin-based drugs to reduce LDL levels, additional effective treatments for reducing blood lipid concentrations are required. Herein, soybean hydrolysate prepared via peptic and tryptic hydrolysis promoted trans-intestinal cholesterol excretion (TICE) by increasing ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 5 (ABCG5) and ABCG8 expression. The peptide sequence capable of promoting TICE was determined via HPLC and LC-MS/MS. Based on this, pure artificial peptides were synthesized, and the efficacy of the selected peptides was verified using cellular and hyperlipidemic mouse models. Soybean hydrolysates, including two bioactive peptides (ALEPDHRVESEGGL and SLVNNDDRDSYRLQSGDAL), promoted TICE via the expression of ABCG5 and ABCG8 in enterocytes. They downregulated expression of hepatic cytochrome P450 family 7 subfamily A member 1 (CYP7A1) and CYP8B1 via expression of fibroblast growth factor 19 (FGF19) in a liver X receptor α (LXRa)-dependent pathway. Administration of bioactive peptides to hyperlipidemic mouse models by oral gavage reduced cholesterol levels in serum via upregulation of ABCG5 and ABCG8 expression in the proximal intestine and through fecal cholesterol excretion, upregulated FGF 15/19 expression, and suppressed hepatic bile acid synthesis. Oral administration of soybean-derived bioactive peptides elicited hypolipidemic effects by increasing TICE and decreasing hepatic cholesterol synthesis.

Abstract
Gly m Bd 60 K, which is the α subunit of β-conglycinin, is a major soybean (Glycine max) allergen. We used high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), thermal techniques, and glycation to treat β-conglycinin, which can effectively reduce the antigenicity of β-conglycinin. β-conglycinin was used to immunize New Zealand rabbits, and the antiserum had a titer > 1: 1 × 105 and an IC50 of 2.254 μg/mL. β-conglycinin was subjected to HHP, thermal techniques, and glycation and mixed with rabbit antiserum against β-conglycinin to obtain the site-specific antiserum. The overlapping gene fragments of Gly m Bd 60 K were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), then cloned into a T7 phage vector and packaged in vitro, the recombinant T7 phages were constructed. Indirect ELISA (iELISA) was used to locate the destroyed antigenic sites and, after three rounds of segment expression and identification, the C2-1 and C2-2 fragments were identified as destroyed antigenic sites of Gly m Bd 60 K. Allergenicity analysis showed that the C2-1 and C2-2 fragments reacted with allergic patients' serum, which indicated that the destroyed sites were allergic sites.

Abstract
β-conglycinin is one of the most allergenic proteins, and its constituent subunits α', α, and β are all potential allergens to humans. In the present study, we concentrated on the destructed antigenic sites of β subunit of β-conglycinin after high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment. In this paper, the overlapping gene fragments of the β subunit of β-conglycinin were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and cloned into T7 phage vectors. After being packaged in vitro, the recombinant T7 phage was constructed, and the overlapping fragments of the β subunit were displayed on the phage surface. The recombinant phages that expressed the overlapping fragments of the β subunit were used to react with specific antiserum by indirect ELISA to identify the HHP destructed antigenic sites. After three rounds of expression and identification, we used synthetic peptide technology to identify that the obtained fragment was a conformational epitope. We further confirmed that HHP treatment changed the conformational structure of β-conglycinin, which reduced the antigenicity of the protein.

Abstract
Soybean allergy is a serious health risk to humans and animals; β-conglycinin is the primary antigenic protein in soybean. Intestinal porcine epithelial (IPEC-J2) cells were used as an in vitro physiological model of the intestinal epithelium to study the effects of different concentrations of soybean antigen protein β-conglycinin to identify the involved signaling pathways. The cells were divided into eight groups and either untreated or treated with different concentrations of β-conglycinin, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (l-NAME), SP600125, and SB202190 either alone or in combination. The cells were incubated with 1, 5, and 10 mg·mL-1 β-conglycinin or 5 mg·mL-1 β-conglycinin and 1 μmol·L-1 nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) inhibitor (PDTC), inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (l-NAME), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor (SP600125), and p38 inhibitor (SB202190) for 24 h, separately; controls were left untreated. The mRNA, protein, and phosphorylation levels of NF-κB, p38, and JNK were higher in the treated groups than in the control group. β-Conglycinin decreased tight junction distribution, destroyed the cytoskeleton of IPEC-J2 cells, and caused cell death. After the addition of the inhibitors, β-conglycinin-induced IPEC-J2 cell damage was significantly reduced. β-Conglycinin caused damage to IPEC-J2 cells via the mitogen-activated protein kinase/NF-κB signaling pathway. The results of this study are crucial for exploring the mechanisms underlying allergic reactions caused by soybean antigen proteins.
