Gerson KD, Loder A, Landau Z, Anton L. Xenobiotic metabolites modify immune responses of the cervicovaginal epithelium: potential mechanisms underlying barrier disruption. BJOG 2024; 131:665-674. [PMID: 37705143 DOI: 10.1111/1471-0528.17654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Xenobiotic metabolites are exogenous biochemicals that can adversely impact reproductive health. We previously identified xenobiotics in cervicovaginal fluid during pregnancy in association with short cervix. In other organ systems, xenobiotics can modify epithelial barrier function. We hypothesise that xenobiotics dysregulate epithelial cell and macrophage immune responses as a mechanism to disrupt the cervicovaginal barrier. DESIGN In vitro cell culture system. SETTING Laboratory within academic institution. SAMPLE Vaginal, ectocervical and endocervical epithelial cell lines and primary macrophages. METHODS Cells were treated with diethanolamine (2.5 mM), ethyl glucoside (5 mM) or tartrate (2.5 mM) for 24 h. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases were measured in cell supernatants (n = 3 per condition). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Dunnett's test for multiple comparisons was performed. RESULTS Diethanolamine induces inflammatory cytokines, whereas ethyl glucoside and tartrate generally exert anti-inflammatory effects across all cells. Diethanolamine increases interleukin 6 (IL-6), IL-8, interferon γ-induced protein 10 kDa (IP-10), growth-regulated oncogene (GRO), fractalkine, matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP-1), MMP-9 and MMP-10 (p < 0.05 for all), factors involved in acute inflammation and recruitment of monocytes, neutrophils and lymphocytes. Ethyl glucoside and tartrate decrease multiple cytokines, including RANTES and MCP-1 (p < 0.05 for all), which serve as chemotactic factors. Vaginal cells exhibit heightened inflammatory tone compared with cervical cells and macrophages, with a greater number of differentially expressed analytes after xenobiotic exposure. CONCLUSIONS Xenobiotic metabolites present in the cervicovaginal space during pregnancy modify immune responses, unveiling potential pathways through which environmental exposures may contribute to the pathogenesis of cervical remodelling preceding preterm birth. Future work identifying xenobiotic sources and routes of exposure offers the potential to modify environmental risks to improve pregnancy outcomes.

Eur J Pharmacol 2024; 966:176340.

Abstract
Hinokitiol is a natural bioactive tropolone derivative isolated from Chamaecyparis obtusa and Thuja plicata, which exhibits promising potential in terms of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and possesses potent iron-binding capacity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential role of hinokitiol in protecting against ethanol-induced gastric injury and elucidate the underlying mechanism. Our results demonstrated that hinokitiol effectively attenuated hemorrhagic gastric lesions, epithelial cell loss, and inflammatory response in mice with ethanol-induced gastric injury. Intriguingly, we found that ethanol exposure affects iron levels both in vivo and in vitro. Moreover, the disturbed iron homeostasis was involved in the development of ethanol-induced injury. Iron depletion was found to enhance defense against ethanol-induced damage, while iron repletion showed the opposite effect. To further explore the role of iron sequestration in the protective effects of hinokitiol, we synthesized methylhinokitiol, a compound that shields the iron binding capacity of hinokitiol with a methyl group. Interestingly, this compound significantly diminishes the protective effect against ethanol-induced injury. These findings collectively demonstrated that hinokitiol could potentially be used to prevent or improve gastric injury induced by ethanol through regulating cellular iron homeostasis.

Implications of anaemia and response to anaemia treatment on outcomes in patients with cirrhosis. JHEP Rep 2023; 5:100688. [PMID: 36926273 PMCID: PMC10011825 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhepr.2023.100688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/12/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background & Aims Anaemia is frequently observed in patients with cirrhosis and was identified as a predictor of adverse outcomes, such as increased mortality and occurrence of acute-on-chronic liver failure. To date, the possible effects of iron supplementation on these adverse outcomes are not well described. We therefore aimed to assess the role of iron supplementation in patients with cirrhosis and its capability to improve prognosis. Methods Laboratory diagnostics were performed in consecutive outpatients with cirrhosis admitted between July 2018 and December 2019 to the University Hospital Essen. Associations with transplant-free survival were assessed in regression models. Results A total of 317 outpatients with cirrhosis were included, of whom 61 received a liver transplant (n = 19) or died (n = 42). In multivariate Cox regression analysis, male sex (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.33, 95% CI [1.59, 6.99], p = 0.001), model for end-stage liver disease score (HR = 1.19, 95% CI [1.11, 1.27], p <0.001) and the increase of haemoglobin levels within 6 months (ΔHb6) (HR = 0.72, 95% CI [0.63, 0.83], p <0.001) were associated with transplant-free survival. Regarding the prediction of haemoglobin increase, intake of rifaximin (beta = 0.50, SD beta = 0.19, p = 0.007) and iron supplementation (beta = 0.79, SD beta = 0.26, p = 0.003) were significant predictors in multivariate analysis. Conclusions An increase of haemoglobin levels is associated with improvement of transplant-free survival in patients with cirrhosis. Because the prediction of haemoglobin increase significantly depends on rifaximin and iron supplementation, application of these two medications can have an important impact on the outcome of these patients. Impact and implications Anaemia is very common in patients with cirrhosis and is known to be a predictor of negative outcomes, but little is known about the effect of iron substitution in these individuals. In our cohort, increase of haemoglobin levels improved transplant-free survival of patients with cirrhosis. The increase of haemoglobin levels was mainly induced by iron supplementation and was even stronger in the case of concomitant use of iron and rifaximin. Clinical trial registration UME-ID-10042.

Characterization of Gut Microbiota Compositions along the Intestinal Tract in CD163/pAPN Double Knockout Piglets and Their Potential Roles in Iron Absorption. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0190622. [PMID: 36625575 PMCID: PMC9927099 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.01906-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
The gut microbiota is known to play a role in regulating host metabolism, yet the mechanisms underlying this regulation are not well elucidated. Our study aimed to characterize the differences in gut microbiota compositions and their roles in iron absorption between wild-type (WT) and CD163/pAPN double-gene-knockout (DKO) weaned piglets. A total of 58 samples along the entire digestive tract were analyzed for microbial community using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The colonic microbiota and their metabolites were determined by metagenomic sequencing and untargeted liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), respectively. Our results showed that no alterations in microbial community structure and composition were observed between DKO and WT weaned piglets, with the exception of colonic microbiota. Interestingly, the DKO piglets had selectively increased the relative abundance of the Leeia genus belonging to the Neisseriaceae family and decreased the Ruminococcaceae_UCG_014 genus abundance. Functional capacity analysis showed that organic acid metabolism was enriched in the colon in DKO piglets. In addition, the DKO piglets showed increased iron levels in important tissues compared with WT piglets without any pathological changes. Pearson's correlation coefficient indicated that the specific bacteria such as Leeia and Ruminococcaceae_UCG_014 genus played a key role in host iron absorption. Moreover, the iron levels had significantly (P < 0.05) positive correlation with microbial metabolites, particularly carboxylic acids and their derivatives, which might increase iron absorption by preventing iron precipitation. Overall, this study reveals an interaction between colonic microbiota and host metabolism and has potential significance for alleviating piglet iron deficiency. IMPORTANCE Iron deficiency is a major risk factor for iron deficiency anemia, which is among the most common nutritional disorders in piglets. However, it remains unclear how the gut microbiota interacts with host iron absorption. The current report provides the first insight into iron absorption-microbiome connection in CD163/pAPN double knockout piglets. The present results showed that carboxylic acids and their derivatives contributed to the absorption of nonheme iron by preventing ferric iron precipitation.

Abstract
Introduction Under conditions of limited iron availability, plants and microbes have evolved mechanisms to acquire iron. For example, metal deficiency stimulates reprogramming of carbon metabolism, increasing activity of enzymes involved in the Krebs cycle and the glycolytic pathway. Resultant carboxylates/hydroxycarboxylates then function as ligands to complex iron and facilitate solubilization and uptake, reversing the metal deficiency. Similarly, human intestinal epithelial cells may produce lactate, a hydroxycarboxylate, during absolute and functional iron deficiency to import metal to reverse limited availability. Methods Here we investigate (1) if lactate can increase cell metal import of epithelial cells in vitro, (2) if lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in and lactate production by epithelial cells correspond to metal availability, and (3) if blood concentrations of LDH in a human cohort correlate with indices of iron homeostasis. Results Results show that exposures of human epithelial cells, Caco-2, to both sodium lactate and ferric ammonium citrate (FAC) increase metal import relative to FAC alone. Similarly, fumaric, isocitric, malic, and succinic acid coincubation with FAC increase iron import relative to FAC alone. Increased iron import following exposures to sodium lactate and FAC elevated both ferritin and metal associated with mitochondria. LDH did not change after exposure to deferoxamine but decreased with 24 h exposure to FAC. Lactate levels revealed decreased levels with FAC incubation. Review of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey demonstrated significant negative relationships between LDH concentrations and serum iron in human cohorts. Conclusions Therefore, we conclude that iron import in human epithelial cells can involve lactate, LDH activity can reflect the availability of this metal, and blood LDH concentrations can correlate with indices of iron homeostasis.

Abstract
The investigation was undertaken to maximise the bioaccessibility of iron and zinc of a complementary food mix by multiple approaches of dephytinisation and addition of organic acids. A wheat, pulse and oilseed protein flour mix was dephytinized by phytase activation and different thermal treatments. As the mineral content of the mix was low, the spray dried mix was fortified with different iron and zinc salts to identify the salt with the highest bioaccessibility in this matrix. Based on the percent bioaccessibility, the mix with sodium iron EDTA and zinc oxide was chosen for fortification. Bioaccessibility was enhanced by the addition of fruit powders and pure organic acids. Fruit powders showed a significant increase, but citric acid at a higher dose was beneficial in enhancing bioaccessible iron. The strategy of dephytinisation followed by fortification and the addition of fruit powders or organic acids is promising in alleviating iron and zinc deficiencies.

Abstract
The bioaccessibility and the bioavailability of iron complexed to peptides (active) in microparticles forms contained in dry beverages formulations were evaluated. The peptide-iron complexes microparticles were obtained by spray drying and added in three dry formulations (tangerine, strawberry, and chocolate flavors). The peptides isolated by iron ion affinity (IMAC-Fe III) had their biological activity predicted by BIOPEP® database and were evaluated by molecular coupling. The bioaccessibility was evaluated by solubility and dialysability and the bioavalability was assessed by Caco-2 cellular model. The proportion 10:1 of peptide-iron complexes presented higher rates of bioaccessibility (49%) and bioavailability (56%). The microparticle with peptide-iron complex showed greater solubility after digestion (39.1%), bioaccessibility (19.8%), and bioavailability (34.8%) than the ferrous sulfate salt (control) for the three assays (10.2%; 12.9%; 9.7%, respectively). Tangerine and strawberry formulations contributed to the iron absorption according to the results of bioaccessibility (36.2%, 30.0% respectively) and bioavailability (80.5%, 84.1%, respectively). The results showed that iron peptide complexation and microencapsulation process improve the bioaccessibility and bioavailability when incorporated into formulations. Iron solubility is increased in iron peptide complexes. In silico interaction between peptides > 5 KDa and ferric iron (Fe2+). Microparticle with Fe-peptides increase iron bioavailability after digestion. Microparticle formulations improve iron bioaccessibility and bioavailability.

Abstract
Fresh fruit and vegetable juices are commonly consumed as a valuable source of nutrients, while wheatgrass juice is, due to its nutritional value, used as a natural dietary supplement. The main aim of this research was to evaluate the effect of wheatgrass juice addition to apple, beet, carrot, orange, and lemon juice on total and in vitro bioaccessible concentrations of K, Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, and Zn, vitamin C concentration, total phenolic and flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity. In comparison to other juices, wheatgrass juice had the highest total and in vitro bioaccessible concentrations of Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, and Zn, while beet juice had the highest K concentration. Lemon and orange juices had the highest vitamin C concentration, while the highest total phenolic and flavonoid content were found in wheatgrass juice. After the addition of wheatgrass juice, Ca, Mg, Mn, and Zn concentration increased in all examined juices, vitamin C concentration increased in apple, beet, and carrot juice, total phenolic content increased in carrot juice, while total flavonoid content increased in apple, carrot, and orange juice. In comparison to the examined juices, wheatgrass juice has better nutritional value, and it could be used in a mixture with other juices to improve their nutritional value.

Abstract
Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) has been receiving worldwide attention. Developing safe and effective iron supplements is of great significance for IDA treatment. Tegillarca granosa (T. granosa), a traditional aquaculture bivalve species in China, is considered to be an excellent source of micronutrients, but the distribution and bioavailability of these minerals have yet to be investigated. The present research was conducted to determine the contents and in vitro enzymatic digestibility of minerals in T. granosa, using beef and wheat flour as reference foods. Meanwhile, two iron-binding proteins, hemoglobin and ferritin, were extracted from T. granosa, and their structures, iron accessibility and bioavailability were investigated. Moreover, the effects of ascorbic acid (AA) and citric acid (CA), two commonly applied dietary factors, on these parameters were evaluated. Our results indicated that the mineral levels varied significantly among different food matrices, with T. granosa showing the highest contents of the tested elements. Comparison of iron absorption of meat versus wheat flour and hemoglobin versus ferritin confirmed that heme iron exhibited higher bioavailability than non-heme iron. The addition of the two organic acids notably enhanced the cellular iron uptake of T. granosa-derived proteins. This could be because AA/CA weakened hydrogen bonds within proteins and caused disordered secondary structures, thereby improving their enzymatic digestibility and releasing more soluble iron to be available for absorption. The results of this study provided a basis for the development of T. granosa-derived protein-based iron supplements, promoting the diverse utilization of marine aquatic resources.

Abstract
Micronutrient deficiencies are a worldwide public health concern. Emerging evidence supports the ability of probiotics to enhance micronutrient status, which could aid in the prevention of non-communicable disease-associated malnutrition. This systematic review evaluated evidence of the efficacy of probiotic supplementation to improve micronutrient status in healthy subjects. The authors searched for published English language peer-reviewed journal articles in PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Google Scholar databases from inception to July 2020 using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The quality of eligible studies was assessed using the Revised Cochrane Risk-of-Bias tool (RoB)2 and Risk of Bias in Non-Randomized Studies of Interventions tool (ROBINS-I tool). Fourteen original studies out of 2790 met the inclusion criteria. The results indicated that, despite varying degrees of efficacy, the intake of certain probiotics in healthy subjects was associated with a positive impact on the status of certain micronutrients (vitamin B12, calcium, folate, iron and zinc). A limitation was that studies were widely heterogeneous in terms of participant age, probiotic strain, species, dosage, intervention duration, and form of administration. Additional clinical trials are warranted to determine the most effective strains of probiotics, doses and durations of interventions.

Abstract
This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the in vitro, animal, and clinical studies with the bacterial strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum 299v (L. plantarum 299v; formerly named Lactobacillus plantarum 299v) published up until June 30, 2020. L. plantarum 299v is the most documented L. plantarum strain in the world, described in over 170 scientific publications out of which more than 60 are human clinical studies. The genome sequence of L. plantarum 299v has been determined and is available in the public domain (GenBank Accession number: NZ_LEAV01000004). The probiotic strain L. plantarum 299v was isolated from healthy human intestinal mucosa three decades ago by scientists at Lund University, Sweden. Thirty years later, a wealth of data coming from in vitro, animal, and clinical studies exist, showing benefits primarily for gastrointestinal health, such as reduced flatulence and abdominal pain in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Moreover, several clinical studies have shown positive effects of L. plantarum 299v on iron absorption and more recently also on iron status. L. plantarum 299v is safe for human consumption and does not confer antibiotic resistance. It survives the harsh conditions of the human gastrointestinal tract, adheres to mannose residues on the intestinal epithelial cells and has in some cases been re-isolated more than ten days after administration ceased. Besides studying health benefits, research groups around the globe have investigated L. plantarum 299v in a range of applications and processes. L. plantarum 299v is used in many different food applications as well as in various dietary supplements. In a freeze-dried format, L. plantarum 299v is robust and stable at room temperature, enabling long shelf-lives of consumer healthcare products such as capsules, tablets, or powder sachets. The strain is patent protected for a wide range of indications and applications worldwide as well as trademarked as LP299V®.

Anemia of Chronic Diseases: Wider Diagnostics-Better Treatment? Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12061784.

Abstract
Anemia of chronic diseases is a condition that accompanies a specific underlying disease, in which there is a decrease in hemoglobin, hematocrit and erythrocyte counts due to a complex process, usually initiated by cellular immunity mechanisms and pro-inflammatory cytokines and hepcidin. This is the second most common type of anemia after iron deficiency anemia in the world. Its severity generally correlates with the severity of the underlying disease. This disease most often coexists with chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases, cancer, and kidney failure. Before starting treatment, one should undertake in-depth diagnostics, which includes not only assessment of complete blood count and biochemical parameters, but also severity of the underlying disease. The differential diagnosis of anemia of chronic diseases is primarily based on the exclusion of other types of anemia, in particular iron deficiency. The main features of anemia of chronic diseases include mild to moderate lowering of hemoglobin level, decreased percentage of reticulocyte count, low iron and transferrin concentration, but increased ferritin. Due to the increasingly better knowledge of the pathomechanism of chronic diseases and cancer biology, the diagnosis of this anemia is constantly expanding with new biochemical indicators. These include: the concentration of other hematopoietic factors (folic acid, vitamin B12), hepcidin, creatinine and erythropoietin. The basic form of treatment of anemia of chronic diseases remains supplementation with iron, folic acid and vitamin B12 as well as a diet rich in the above-mentioned hematopoietic factors. The route of administration (oral, intramuscular or intravenous) requires careful consideration of the benefits and possible side effects, and assessment of the patient’s clinical status. New methods of treating both the underlying disease and anemia are raising hopes. The novel methods are associated not only with supplementing deficiencies, but also with the administration of drugs molecularly targeted to specific proteins or receptors involved in the development of anemia of chronic diseases.

Abstract
Hummus, an iron-containing plant-based dish mainly made from chickpea purée, tahini, lemon juice and garlic, could be a valuable source of iron when bioavailable. Since the processing and formulation of food influence iron bioavailability, the present study investigated for the first time, their effects on hummus. Firstly, iron bioaccessibility was assessed on eight samples (prepared according to the screening Hadamard matrix) by in vitro digestion preceding iron dialysis. Then, iron bioavailability of four selected samples was estimated by the in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model. Total and dialyzable iron were determined by the atomic absorption spectrometry and ferritin formation was determined using an ELISA kit. Only autoclaving, among other processes, had a significant effect on iron bioaccessibility (+9.5, p < 0.05). Lemon juice had the highest positive effect (+15.9, p < 0.05). Consequently, the effect of its acidic components were investigated based on a full factorial 23 experimental design; no significant difference was detected. Garlic's effect was not significant, but tahini's effect was negative (-8.9, p < 0.05). Despite the latter, hummus had a higher iron bioavailability than only cooked chickpeas (30.4 and 7.23 ng ferritin/mg protein, respectively). In conclusion, hummus may be a promising source of iron; further in vivo studies are needed for confirmation.

Abstract
The objective of the present study is to determine the effect of phytic acid (PA), sodium oxalate (SO) and sodium silicate (SS) on non-heme iron bioavailability in both the presence and absence of ascorbic acid (AA) using an in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model, and the levels of AA needed to promote Fe absorption from Fe complexed with PA, SO or SS were also determined. The results indicated that adding PA at 1:1, 3:1, 5:1 and 10:1 molar as compared to Fe decreased ferrous iron uptake by 55.80 %(P < 0.05), 72.33 % (P < 0.05), 73.32 % (P < 0.05), and 73.26 % (P < 0.05), respectively. Adding SS at 1:1, 3:1, 5:1 and 10:1 molar as compared to Fe also decreased ferrous iron uptake by 51.40 % (P < 0.05), 66.12 %(P < 0.05), 60.19 % (P < 0.05) and 45.11 % (P < 0.05), respectively. Adding SO at 5:1 and 10:1 molar as compared to Fe decreased ferrous iron uptake by 40.81 % (P < 0.05) and 33.14 % (P < 0.05), respectively. When adding AA to iron plus organic acid medias reached molar ratios of 5:5:1 AA:PA:Fe, 3:5:1 AA:SO:Fe and 5:5:1 AA:SS:Fe, iron absorption from FeSO4 were significantly increased (P < 0.05). However, no significant effect was observed in iron absorption from FeCl3 when adding AA to the media. The results showed that PA, SS or SO decreases iron uptake from ferrous Fe, and AA can counteract their inhibiting effect on ferrous iron absorption and thus increase ferrous iron uptake. The results may be important for elucidating factors affecting iron bioavailability in the small intestine and for the development of foods with improved iron bioavailability.

Abstract
Iron (Fe) is a highly ample metal on planet earth (~35% of the Earth’s mass) and is particularly essential for most life forms, including from bacteria to mammals. Nonetheless, iron deficiency is highly prevalent in developing countries, and oral administration of this metal is so far the most effective treatment for human beings. Notably, the excessive amount of unabsorbed iron leave unappreciated side effects at the highly interactive host–microbe interface of the human gastrointestinal tract. Recent advances in elucidating the molecular basis of interactions between iron and gut microbiota shed new light(s) on the health and pathogenesis of intestinal inflammatory diseases. We here aim to present the dynamic modulation of intestinal microbiota by iron availability, and conversely, the influence on dietary iron absorption in the gut. The central part of this review is intended to summarize our current understanding about the effects of luminal iron on host–microbe interactions in the context of human health and disease.

Abstract
Fermented kale juices using four types of lactobacilli were produced in the present study. After 48 h of fermentation time, viable cell counts of all ferments reached an above 109 CFU/mL. The viability of the ferments after cold storage in the refrigerator for 4 weeks showed 108 CFU/mL in all ferments. Among four types of fermented kale juices, the ferment of Lactobacillus acidophilus IFO 3025 indicated a good nutritional composition, including neutral sugar (1,909.76 μg/mL), reducing sugar (564.00 μg/mL, P<0.05), and protein contents (160.06 μg/mL, P<0.05). The results of mineral composition analysis had the highest potassium value in all ferments (854.16~895.07 μg/mL), particularly in the ferment of Lactobacillus brevis FSB-1 (P<0.001), which is necessary to sustain osmotic pressure, prevention of high blood pressure, and protein synthesis. Moreover, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium contents related to bone health were generally sufficient in all ferments. Consequently, in this study, fermented kale juices may be suggested as a healthy fermented beverage with essential nutrients. However, the acceptability of the fermented kale juice to the Korean taste should be further investigated with a trained taste panel to determine whether inoculated fermentation could be an option for the consumers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Three-dimensional organoid culture has fundamentally changed the in vitro study of intestinal biology enabling novel assays; however, its use is limited because of an inaccessible luminal compartment and challenges to data gathering in a three-dimensional hydrogel matrix. Long-lived, self-renewing 2-dimensional (2-D) tissue cultured from primary colon cells has not been accomplished. METHODS The surface matrix and chemical factors that sustain 2-D mouse colonic and human rectal epithelial cell monolayers with cell repertoires comparable to that in vivo were identified. RESULTS The monolayers formed organoids or colonoids when placed in standard Matrigel culture. As with the colonoids, the monolayers exhibited compartmentalization of proliferative and differentiated cells, with proliferative cells located near the peripheral edges of growing monolayers and differentiated cells predominated in the central regions. Screening of 77 dietary compounds and metabolites revealed altered proliferation or differentiation of the murine colonic epithelium. When exposed to a subset of the compound library, murine organoids exhibited similar responses to that of the monolayer but with differences that were likely attributable to the inaccessible organoid lumen. The response of the human primary epithelium to a compound subset was distinct from that of both the murine primary epithelium and human tumor cells. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that a self-renewing 2-D murine and human monolayer derived from primary cells can serve as a physiologically relevant assay system for study of stem cell renewal and differentiation and for compound screening. The platform holds transformative potential for personalized and precision medicine and can be applied to emerging areas of disease modeling and microbiome studies.

Abstract
One of the most challenging obstacles in nanoparticle's surface modification is to achieve the concept that one ligand can accomplish multiple purposes. Upon such consideration, 3-aminopropoxy-linked quercetin (AmQu), a derivative of a natural flavonoid inspired by the structure of dopamine, is designed and subsequently used to modify the surface of thermally hydrocarbonized porous silicon (PSi) nanoparticles. This nanosystem inherits several advanced properties in a single carrier, including promoted anticancer efficiency, multiple drug resistance (MDR) reversing, stimuli-responsive drug release, drug release monitoring, and enhanced particle-cell interactions. The anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) is efficiently loaded into this nanosystem and released in a pH-dependent manner. AmQu also effectively quenches the fluorescence of the loaded DOX, thereby allowing the use of the nanosystem for monitoring the intracellular drug release. Furthermore, a synergistic effect with the presence of AmQu is observed in both normal MCF-7 and DOX-resistant MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Due to the similar structure as dopamine, AmQu may facilitate both the interaction and internalization of PSi into the cells. Overall, this PSi-based platform exhibits remarkable superiority in both multifunctionality and anticancer efficiency, making this nanovector a promising system for anti-MDR cancer treatment.

Abstract
Changes in calcium bioaccessibility and sensory attributes of four different calcium compounds (calcium hydroxide lactate, emulsified calcium triphosphate, calcium pidolate and calcium amino acid chelate) added to a citric juice were studied at 0, 6 and 12 months of storage. Type of calcium compound showed significant differences ( p 0.05) in calcium bioaccessibility at the three periods of the study. The maximum value at month 0 and month 6 corresponded to the calcium amino acid chelate (45.09±0.59%) followed by calcium pidolate (38.09±0.28%), calcium lactate (32.4±2.17%) and calcium triphosphate (31.21±4.43%). There were no changes in calcium bioaccessibility through time of storage in any juice added with the different calcium salts, however organoleptic changes were critical in the most available samples at month 6. According to these results three of the salts (calcium hydroxide lactate, calcium pidolate and calcium triphosphate) were equally valid for adding to a citric fruit juice for up to 12 months of storage.

Abstract
Iron deficiency is common, especially among young women. Adding probiotics to foods could be one way to increase iron absorption. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that non-haem iron absorption from a fruit drink is improved by adding Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (Lp299v). Iron absorption was studied in healthy women of reproductive age using a single-blind cross-over design in two trials applying the double-isotope (55Fe and 59Fe) technique. In Trial 1, iron absorption from a fruit drink containing 109 colony-forming units (CFU) Lp299v was compared with that from a control drink without Lp299v. Trial 2 had the same design but 1010 CFU were used. The test and control drinks contained approximately 5 mg of iron as ferrous lactate and were labelled with 59Fe (B) and 55Fe (A), respectively, and consumed on 4 consecutive days in the order AABB. Retention of the isotopes was measured with whole-body counting and in blood. Mean iron absorption from the drink containing 109 CFU Lp299v (28·6(sd 12·5) %) was significantly higher than from the control drink (18·5(sd 5·8) %), n 10, P<0·028). The fruit drink with 1010 CFU Lp299v gave a mean iron absorption of 29·1(sd 17·0) %, whereas the control drink gave an absorption of (20·1(sd 6·4) %) (n 11, P<0·080). The difference in iron absorption between the 109 CFU Lp299v and the 1010 CFU Lp299v drinks was not significant (P=0·941). In conclusion, intake of probiotics can increase iron absorption by approximately 50 % from a fruit drink having an already relatively high iron bioavailability.

Abstract
Background
Lactic fermentation of foods increases the availability of iron as shown in a number of studies throughout the years. Several explanations have been provided such as decreased content of inhibitory phytate, increased solubility of iron, and increased content of lactic acid in the fermented product. However, to our knowledge, there are no data to support that the bioavailability of iron is affected by lactic fermentation.
Objectives The objective of the present study was to investigate whether the bioavailability of iron from a vegetable mix was affected by lactic fermentation and to propose a mechanism for such an event, by conducting human and cell (Caco-2, HepG2) studies and iron speciation measurements (voltammetry). We also investigated whether the absorption of zinc was affected by the lactic fermentation. Results In human subjects, we observed that lactic-fermented vegetables served with both a high-phytate and low-phytate meal increased the absorption of iron, but not zinc. In vitro digested fermented vegetables were able to provoke a greater hepcidin response per ng Fe than fresh vegetables, indicating that Fe in the fermented mixes was more bioavailable, independent on the soluble Fe content. We measured that hydrated Fe3+ species were increased after the lactic fermentation, while there was no significant change in hydrated Fe2+. Furthermore, lactate addition to Caco-2 cells did not affect ferritin formation in response to Fe nor did lactate affect the hepcidin response in the Caco-2/HepG2 cell system. Conclusions The mechanism for the increased bioavailability of iron from lactic-fermented vegetables is likely an effect of the increase in ferric iron (Fe3+) species caused by the lactic fermentation. No effect on zinc bioavailability was observed.

Abstract
Genotypic variation of iron bioavailability and the relationship between iron bioavailability and nutrient composition in polished rice among 11 rice genotypes were assessed using an in vitro digestion/Caco-2 cell model. The results indicated that significant differences in iron bioavailability were detected among tested rice genotypes, with a 3-fold range, suggesting a possibility of selecting high bioavailable iron by plant breeding. Although iron bioavailability was not significantly correlated with Fe concentration in polished rice among tested rice genotypes, the results also indicated that most of the iron dense genotypes showed relatively high ferritin formation in Caco-2 cell and transported iron. Additionally, iron bioavailability in polished rice was enhanced by addition of ascorbic acid, with a much wider range of Fe bioavailability variation in polished rice with addition of ascorbic acid than that without addition of ascorbic acid. The positive relationship between iron bioavailability in polished rice and cysteine concentration (R = 0.669) or sulfur (S) concentration (R = 0.744) among tested rice genotypes, suggests that cysteine and sulfur concentration in polished rice could be used as an indicator for high iron bioavailability.

Abstract
The term superfood refers to food with high levels of either nutrient or bioactive phytochemicals with human health benefits. Phytochemicals are naturally occurring compounds in plants that provide their color, flavor and odor. Phenolic compounds form the major constituents of phytochemicals. Plant traits in phytochemical production are tightly bound with the genome while modified markedly by the environmental conditions. Here, we studied the effect of supplemented blue light on the production of several phenolics in the leaves of tomato, basil and parsley, which are widely cultivated food plant species. The results indicated doubled or higher increases in the accumulation of several species-specific phenolic acids or flavonoids. In conclusion, we showed for the first time, that supplemented blue light results in high yield improvement of phytochemicals related to superfood products.

Abstract
Iron is an essential nutrient for almost every living organism because it is required in a number of biological processes that serve to maintain life. In humans, recycling of senescent erythrocytes provides most of the daily requirement of iron. In addition, we need to absorb another 1–2 mg Fe from the diet each day to compensate for losses due to epithelial sloughing, perspiration, and bleeding. Iron absorption in the intestine is mainly regulated on the enterocyte level by effectors in the diet and systemic regulators accessing the enterocyte through the basal lamina. Recently, a complex meshwork of interactions between several trace metals and regulatory proteins was revealed. This review focuses on advances in our understanding of Cu, Zn, and Ca in the regulation of iron absorption. Ascorbate as an important player is also considered.

Abstract
Incidental ingestion of Chromite ore processing residue (COPR) particles poses a potential health risk. The purpose of this study was to determine the Cr bioaccessibility from COPR using the in vitro gastrointestinal (IVG) procedure. The bioaccessible Cr(VI) was 53.8% and 42.9%, respectively, in the gastric and intestinal phases from a total of 19490 mg kg(-1) Cr(VI) in COPR. Food intake including milk, dough, and ascorbic acid resulted in a significant decrease in Cr(VI) bioaccessibility. Some organic acids such as lactic, malic, and citric acid moderately reduced Cr(VI), while acetic acid exhibited no capacity for Cr(VI) reduction. The integrated area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of the IVG extraction was used to calculate bioaccessibility. Compared with the bioaccessibility conventionally estimated using concentrations at the end of the extraction (CEP), the AUC technique should be implemented to confirm the accuracy of the IVG method when reduction of Cr(VI) occurs during the extraction. The absence of Cr(VI) phases in extracted residues as evidenced by XANES and XRPD analysis confirmed the Cr(VI) release and Cr(VI) reduction by food and ascorbic acid. With readily bioaccessible Cr(VI) and rapid human uptake, reduction of Cr(VI) might not be as effective a detoxification pathway as initially thought.

Abstract
In this study, the influence of phytase-producing Bifidobacterium strains during the breadmaking process (direct or indirect) on final bread Fe dialyzability and ferritin formation in Caco-2 cell as a measure of cell Fe uptake was assessed. The addition of bifidobacteria significantly reduced the InsP(6) + InsP(5) concentrations compared to control samples. Fe-dialyzable contents for samples with bifidobacteria were increased 2.3-5.6-fold, and dialyzability was improved by 2.6-8.6% compared to controls. However, this was not reflected in an increase of Fe uptake by Caco-2 cells as was predicted by the phytate/Fe molar ratios. The results demonstrated the usefulness of phytase-producing bifidobacteria to reduce phytate during the breadmaking process and to increase Fe accessibility, although the effects appeared to be still insufficient to improve Fe bioavailability in Caco-2 cells. Further refinement of the use of phytase-producing bifidobacterial strains and/or breadmaking technological processes is deserved for improving Fe uptake.

Abstract
The effects of a diet based on Mediterranean patterns on iron bioavailability and iron status in adolescents were studied. The study was divided into two periods: basal period, in which 21 male adolescents consumed their habitual diet (basal diet); and nutritional intervention period, during which an experimental diet based on the Mediterranean model was consumed. Dietary iron utilization was studied by means of iron intake and iron output in faeces and urine, and iron status was analysed in fasting blood samples collected at the end of each period. No differences in total iron intake were found between diets, but consumption of the experimental diet increased iron absorption and retention compared with the basal diet. Biochemical parameters related to iron metabolism did not vary after the intervention period, although serum ferritin tended to increase. Therefore, a diet based on Mediterranean dietary patterns may improve dietary iron utilization during adolescence and may prevent iron deficiency.

Abstract
Model Maillard reaction products were generated by heating glucose-lysine mixtures (GL) at 150 degrees C for different times (15, 30, 60, and 90 min). Samples were characterized by free lysine, browning, and UV-visible spectra and assessed for antioxidant properties, metal chelating ability, and effects on mineral absorption across Caco-2 monolayers. It was found that the capacity to retard lipid peroxidation in a model linoleic acid emulsion system increased with heating time up to 60 min and then leveled off, whereas the scavenging activity toward 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radicals increased in early periods of the reaction (15 and 30 min of heating) and decreased thereafter. The iron binding affinity of the different samples was not correlated with antioxidant properties, and iron transport in Caco-2 cells was unchanged between samples. On the contrary, copper chelating activity showed significant correlation with free radical scavenging activity and with copper absorption across intestinal cells. It can be concluded that severe heat treatment of GL mixtures maintained the ability to reduce lipid peroxidation but decreased the free radical scavenging activity. Moreover, antiradical activity, copper chelation ability, and positive effects on copper absorption were correlated and associated to compounds formed at early stages of the Maillard reaction.

Abstract
The bioavailability of iron from fortified fruit beverages was estimated by an in vitro system including enzymatic digestion, iron uptake by Caco-2 cells, and ferritin formation determined via an enzyme immunoassay (ELISA). Thus, the aim of the present study was to assess iron bioavailability as influenced by the presence of known dietary promoter and inhibitory factors in fortified fruit beverages containing iron and/or zinc and/or skimmed milk. No negative effect ( p > 0.05) derived from micronutrient interaction can be ascribed to zinc supplementation on iron availability. Besides, the presence of caseinophosphopeptides derived from casein hydrolysis during digestion may confer enhancing effects on iron absorption in samples with milk added with respect to nonadded samples ( p < 0.05). Therefore, from a nutritional point of view, individuals in need of optimal iron absorption may choose dairy samples to ensure optimal iron bioavailability.
