Effects of high voltage pulsed electric field on structural properties and immune reactivity of arginine kinase in Fenneropenaeus chinensis. Food Chem 2024; 449:139304. [PMID: 38608611 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139304] [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: 04/08/2023] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024]
Abstract
To evaluate the effect of high voltage pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment (10-20 kV/cm, 5-15 min) on the structural characteristics and sensitization of crude extracts of arginine kinase from Fenneropenaeus chinensis. By simulated in vitro gastric juice digestion (SGF), intestinal juice digestion (SIF) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), AK sensitization was reduced by 42.5% when treated for 10 min at an electric field intensity of 15 kV/cm. After PEF treatment, the α-helix content decreased, and the α-helix content gradually changed to β-sheet and β-turn. Compared to the untreated group, the surface hydrophobicity increased and the sulfhydryl content decreased. SEM and AFM analyses showed that the treated sample surface formed a dense porous structure and increased roughness. The protein content, dielectric properties, and amino acid content of sample also changed significantly with the changes in the treatment conditions. Non-thermal PEF has potential applications in the development of hypoallergenic foods.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133579. [PMID: 38964678 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133579] [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: 05/10/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
Polyphenols have attracted extensive attention due to their rich functional activities, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor. However, the low solubility and poor stability limit their bioavailability and functional activities. Plant-derived ferritin cages have a unique hollow cage structure that can embed polyphenols to improve their unfavorable properties. Therefore, it is essential to adequately elaborate and summarize plant-derived ferritin cages to maximize their potential benefits in nutritional interventions. This review focuses on the fundamental properties of plant-derived ferritin cages, including the preparation process, purification technology, identification methods, and structural and functional properties. The relevant research on ferritin cages in polyphenol delivery has been summarized, including the delivery of water/lipid soluble polyphenols, modification of ferritin cages, and the interaction between polyphenols and ferritin cages. The research progress, shortcomings and prospects of plant-derived ferritin cages in precise nutrition are introduced. In addition, the relevant research on ferritin in immune response and protein engineering is also discussed to provide the theoretical basis for applying plant-derived ferritin cages in many frontier fields.

Abstract
Bioactive or nutraceutical ingredients have been widely used in pursuit of health and well-being. However, the environmental instability, poor solubility and bioavailability, and unspecific delivery highly limited their practical values. By virtue of the unique shell-like structure, definite disassembly/reassembly behavior, and excellent safety profile of ferritin protein, it stands out among of various nano-materials and is emerging as one of the most promising vehicles for the encapsulation and delivery of bioactive ingredients or drugs. In this review, we present a systematic overview of recent advances of ferritin-based delivery systems from single-encapsulation, co-encapsulation, to compartmentalized-encapsulation of bioactive ingredients or drugs. Different encapsulation strategies for cargo loading as well as their advantages and drawbacks have been critically reviewed. This study emphasized the importance of the construction of compartmentalized delivery systems through the usage of ferritin nanocages, which exhibit great potential for facilitating the synergistic functionality of different types of cargos. Lastly, the applications of ferritin nanocages for physicochemical improvements and functionality achievements of loaded cargos are summarized. In conclusion, ferritin protein nanocages not only are excellent nanocarriers, but also can act as"multi-seated" vehicles for co-encapsulation and compartmentalized encapsulation of different cargos simultaneously.

Food Chem 2022; 388:133018. [PMID: 35468466 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 03/09/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) treatment on ovalbumin (OVA) induced allergens and reveal potential allergy regulatory mechanisms. At 10 kV/cm, OVA-induced allergic symptoms were significantly reduced, and the capacity of OVA to bind with specific IgG1 and IgE was reduced by 10.32% and 3.61%, respectively. Furthermore, the degranulation of RBL-2H3 cells and allergen activity were also reduced by 4.63% and 22.15%, respectively. Interestingly, the α-helix content was reduced by 5.81% and the fluorescence intensity was increased by 6.90% with PEF treatment. At 10 kV/cm, water contact angle and surface hydrophobicity increased by 8.40% and 0.18%, respectively, indicating that PEF treatment increased the exposure of hydrophobic amino acid residues. PEF treatment alters the hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions in the protein, which masks the binding sites of sensitized epitopes, and consequently reduces allergies.

Abstract
The aggregation-induced emission (AIE) material has been widely used in biological detection due to their unique property of fluorescing in aggregation state. However, the poor dispersion and biocompatibility limit its application in in vivo real-time imaging. Here, a novel strategy is designed to obtain pH-responsive AIE nanomaterials, working through 4-Undecoxy Tetraphenyl Ethylene Methacrylate (PM1) block, with excellent features (dispersion, biocompatibility, self-reconstruction and cancer specific recognition). The recombinant human H-ferritin (rHuHF) was used to prepare rHuHF-PM1 nanocomposites which effectively supported the dispersion and transfer of PM1 in the biological environment, even making it target tumor cells due to the overexpression of ferritin receptors on tumor cells. To simulate the changes of rHuHF in intracellular lysosomes, particle size and fluorescence of rHuHF-PM1 were analyzed, which reflected the loose structural changes of rHuHF nanocages in weak acid system that facilitated the degradation of macromolecular rHuHF in intracellular lysosomes and following release of PM1. The released PM1 molecules aggregated and emitted brilliant blue fluorescence. Several cell lines, Hela, HT-29, HepG2, L-O2 and HUVEC have all been sensitively detected and distinguished. Accordingly, this nanocage has a potential to be applied to disease diagnosis and provides a novel sensing platform for the identification of cancer.

Abstract
The favorable physicochemical properties are essential for the application of protein-based nanovehicles in the field of biomaterials. Herein, we found that the thermal stability of Marsupenaeus japonicus ferritin (MjFer) (Tm = 109.1 ± 0.4 °C) is markedly higher than human H-chain ferritin (HuHF) (Tm = 87.7 ± 0.3 °C), although they share a high structural similarity. Multiple results indicated that the promoted thermal stability of MjFer is mainly derived from the salt bridges located at the C3 interface. Consequently, MjFer exhibits strong protective effects on encapsulated curcumin upon exposure at high temperatures. In contrast, most of the curcumin loaded HuHF composites precipitated rapidly under the same conditions. These findings elucidated the molecular mechanism of the hyperthermostability of MjFer and illustrated that MjFer could act as a robust insulation nanocarrier for bioactive compounds against various thermal treatments.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) on apparent morphology and molecular structure of shell-like ferritin obtained from horse spleen was determined by circular dichroic (CD), fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, cold field emission scanning electron microscopy (CF-SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and verified by molecule dynamics (MD) simulation. After PEF treatment, the α-helix content of the samples reached a minimum value at 10 kV/cm, which indicated that the ferritin structure has been partially unfolded. However, the α-helix content peaked again after resting for 2 h at 25 ± 1 °C. This indicated that the PEF-treated ferritin tended to restore its original spherical morphology probably owing to the reversible assembly characteristic of ferritin. In addition, microstructure analysis revealed that ferritin particles aggregated after PEF treatment. Therefore, PEF treatment could induce the "exposure" of hydrophobic amino acids and conversion of disulfide bond configuration, and consequently, regulate the internal cavity stability of ferritin. The research will be beneficial to expand the application of PEF treatment in the modification of protein structure, and provide a theoretical basis for the application of ferritin as a carrier of bioactive molecules in food.

Abstract
The use of nanotechnology has revolutionized many biotechnological sectors, from bioengineering to medicine, passing through food and cosmetic fields. However, their clinic and industrial application has been into the spotlight due to their safety risk and related side effects. As a result, Green Nanoscience/Nanotechnology emerged as a strategy to prevent any associated nanotoxicity, via implementation of sustainable processes across the whole lifecycle of nanoformulation. Notwithstanding its success across inorganic nanoparticles, the green concept for organic nanoparticle elaboration is still at its infancy. This, coupled with the organic nanoparticles being the most commonly used in biomedicine, highlights the need to implement specific green principles for their elaboration. In this review, we will discuss the possible green routes for the proper design of organic nanoparticles under the umbrella of Green Nanoscience: from the extraction of nanomaterials and active compounds to their final nanoformulation.

Abstract
Compared with other nanocarriers such as liposomes, mesoporous silica, and cyclodextrin, ferritin as a typical protein nanocage has received considerable attention in the field of food, nutrition, and medicine owing to its inherent cavity size, excellent water solubility, and biocompatibility. Additionally, ferritin nanocage also serves as a versatile bio-template for the synthesis of a variety of nanoparticles. Recently, scientists have explored the ferritin nanocage structure for encapsulation and delivery of guest molecules such as nutrients, bioactive molecules, anticancer drugs, and mineral metal ions by taking advantage of its unique reversible disassembly and reassembly property and biomineralization. In this review, we mainly focus on the preparation and structure of ferritin-based nanocarriers, and regulation of their self-assembly. Moreover, the recent advances of their applications in food nutrient delivery and medical diagnostics are highlighted. Finally, the main challenges and future development in ferritin-directed nanoparticles’ synthesis and multifunctional applications are discussed.

Abstract
Proanthocyanidins (PAs) possess superior antioxidant properties and nutritious value, however, low bioavailability and stability limit their applications. Here, we developed a novel method to encapsulate PA dimers successfully into horse spleen apoferritin (apoHSF) using a disassembly/reassembly method based on pH change. The PA-HSF nanoparticles were characterized using fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, circular dichroism, and high-performance liquid chromatography. One apoferritin cage could approximately encapsulate 25.6 molecules of the PA dimer. The results showed that the encapsulation of the PA dimers protected it from the damage of oxidants and temperature below room temperature would be an appropriate condition for HSF-578 solution storage. Moreover, HepG2 cell monolayer absorption and adhesion analyses indicated that the PA dimers encapsulated within apoHSF cages were more efficient in transport. In addition, it was indicated that the PA-HSF nanoparticles had higher cellular antioxidant activity. The novel strategy provided in this study indicates that the protein cage structures like ferritin have potential to be applied in the field of food nutrition.
