Abstract
There have been significant advances in the formulation and stabilization of proteins in the liquid state over the past years since our previous review. Our mechanistic understanding of protein-excipient interactions has increased, allowing one to develop formulations in a more rational fashion. The field has moved towards more complex and challenging formulations, such as high concentration formulations to allow for subcutaneous administration and co-formulation. While much of the published work has focused on mAbs, the principles appear to apply to any therapeutic protein, although mAbs clearly have some distinctive features. In this review, we first discuss chemical degradation reactions. This is followed by a section on physical instability issues. Then, more specific topics are addressed: instability induced by interactions with interfaces, predictive methods for physical stability and interplay between chemical and physical instability. The final parts are devoted to discussions how all the above impacts (co-)formulation strategies, in particular for high protein concentration solutions.'

Whey proteins as multifunctional food materials: Recent advancements in hydrolysis, separation, and peptidomimetic approaches. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e13288. [PMID: 38284584 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13288] [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: 07/21/2023] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
Whey protein derived bioactives, including α-lactalbumin, ß-lactoglobulin, bovine serum albumin, lactoferrin, transferrin, and proteose-peptones, have exhibited wide ranges of functional, biological and therapeutic properties varying from anticancer, antihypertensive, and antimicrobial effects. In addition, their functional properties involve gelling, emulsifying, and foaming abilities. For these reasons, this review article is framed to understand the relationship existed in between those compound levels and structures with their main functional, biological, and therapeutic properties exhibited either in vitro or in vivo. The impacts of hydrolysis mechanism and separation techniques in enhancing those properties are likewise discussed. Furthermore, special emphasize is given to multifunctional effects of whey derived bioactives and their future trends in ameliorating further food, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical products. The underlying mechanism effects of those properties are still remained unclear in terms of activity levels, efficacy, and targeted effectiveness. For these reasons, some important models linking to functional properties, thermal properties and cell circumstances are established. Moreover, the coexistence of radical trapping groups, chelating groups, sulfhydryl groups, inhibitory groups, and peptide bonds seemed to be the key elements in triggering those functions and properties. Practical Application: Whey proteins are the byproducts of cheese processing and usually the exploitation of these food waste products has increasingly getting acceptance in many countries, especially European countries. Whey proteins share comparable nutritive values to milk products, particularly on their richness on important proteins that can serve immune protection, structural, and energetic roles. The nutritive profile of whey proteins shows diverse type of bioactive molecules like α-lactalbumin, ß-lactoglobulin, lactoferrin, transferrin, immunoglobulin, and proteose peptones with wide biological importance to the living system, such as in maintaining immunological, neuronal, and signaling roles. The diversification of proteins of whey products prompted scientists to exploit the real mechanisms behind of their biological and therapeutic effects, especially in declining the risk of cancer, tumor, and further complications like diabetes type 2 and hypertension risk effects. For these reasons, profiling these types of proteins using different proteomic and peptidomic approaches helps in determining their biological and therapeutic targets along with their release into gastrointestinal tract conditions and their bioavailabilities into portal circulation, tissue, and organs. The wide applicability of those protein fractions and their derivative bioactive products showed significant impacts in the field of emulsion and double emulsion stabilization by playing roles as emulsifying, surfactant, stabilizing, and foaming agents. Their amphoteric properties helped them to act as excellent encapsulating agents, particularly as vehicle for delivering important vitamins and bioactive compounds. The presence of ferric elements increased their transportation to several metal-ions in the same time increased their scavenging effects to metal-transition and peroxidation of lipids. Their richness with almost essential and nonessential amino acids makes them as selective microbial starters, in addition their richness in sulfhydryl amino acids allowed them to act a cross-linker in conjugating further biomolecules. For instance, conjugating gold-nanoparticles and fluorescent materials in targeting diseases like cancer and tumors in vivo is considered the cutting-edges strategies for these versatile molecules due to their active diffusion across-cell membrane and the presence of specific transporters to these therapeutic molecules.

Abstract
Protein aggregation can induce low sensitivity and poor repeatability of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-fight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) analysis for intact protein. Herein, we introduced a strategy to decrease protein aggregation in the sample solution by using cellulose nanocrystal (CNC). The results indicated that protein granule size was effectively reduced by adding CNC to the sample solution. Through MALDI-TOF MS analysis, the signal-to-noise ratio of [M + H]+ peak increased 2-fold, and the detection of limit was <10 μg/mL for intact protein. The CNC also contributed to excellent point-to-point repeatability for MALDI-TOF MS analysis with the coefficient of variation (CV) of 10.0% with CNC vs 48.9% without CNC in Hb solution. Also, the repeatability of Pueraria protein ion signals was improved by using CNC, and the CV with and without CNC was 16.1% and 39.6%, respectively. Moreover, protein ion intensity exhibited great linear relationship (y = 53.04x - 3.474, R2 = 0.9936) with the concentrations (ranging from 0.1 to 10 mg/mL) when using CNC. Further investigation revealed that m/z 19,000 and m/z 21,000 peaks of Pueraria could be used for the adulteration analysis and post-translational modification research, demonstrating our method has the potential for broad applications.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2023; 10:e2301095.

Abstract
The service life of an artificial hip joint is limited to 10-15 years, which is not ideal for young patients. To extend the lifespan of these prostheses, the coefficient of friction and wear resistance of metallic femoral heads must be improved. In this study, a Cu-doped titanium nitride (TiNX -Cu) film with "autoantifriction" properties is deposited on a CoCrMo alloy via magnetron sputtering. When delivered in a protein-containing lubricating medium, the Cu in TiNX -Cu quickly and consistently binds to the protein molecules in the microenvironment, resulting in the formation of a stable protein layer. The proteins adsorbed on the TiNX -Cu surface decompose into hydrocarbon fragments owing to the shear stress between the Al2 O3 /TiNX -Cu tribopair. The synergistic effect of the catalysis of Cu and shear stress between the Al2 O3 /TiNX -Cu tribopair transforms these fragments into graphite-like carbon tribofilms with an antifriction property. These tribofilms can simultaneously reduce the friction coefficient of the Al2 O3 /TiNX -Cu tribopair and enhance the wear resistance of the TiNX -Cu film. Based on these findings, it is believed that the autoantifriction film can drive the generation of antifriction tribofilms for lubricating and increasing the wear resistance of prosthetic devices, thereby prolonging their lifespan.

Abstract
A graphene-based metamaterial sensor working in the terahertz spectrum is proposed, simulated, and experimentally verified by measuring bovine serum albumin (BSA). Flexible, low-cost polyimide (PI) is used as the substrate, and aluminum with periodic square rings is chosen as the metal layer. Furthermore, the introduction of the graphene monolayer interacts with the molecules through π-π stacking, resulting in the highly sensitive detection of BSA by calculating the amplitude changes at the resonance frequency. The sensor, which is a biosensor platform that offers the advantages of a small size, high sensitivity, and easy fabrication, is a promising method for THz biological detection.

Abstract
An amorphous curcumin (CUR) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) nanoparticle complex (nanoplex) was previously developed as a promising anticancer nanotherapy. The CUR-BSA nanoplex had been characterized in its aqueous suspension form. The present work developed a dry-powder form of the CUR-BSA nanoplex by lyophilization using sucrose as a cryoprotectant. The cryoprotective activity of sucrose was examined at sucrose mass fractions of 33.33, 50.00, and 66.66% by evaluating the lyophilized nanoplex’s (1) aqueous reconstitution and (2) CUR dissolution and kinetic solubility. The physicochemical stabilizing effects of sucrose upon the nanoplex’s 30-day exposures to 40 °C and 75% relative humidity were examined from (i) aqueous reconstitution, (ii) CUR dissolution, (iii) CUR and BSA payloads, (iv) amorphous form stability, and (v) BSA’s structural integrity. The good cryoprotective activity of sucrose was evidenced by the preserved BSA’s integrity and good aqueous reconstitution, resulting in a fast CUR dissolution rate and a high kinetic solubility (≈5–9× thermodynamic solubility), similar to the nanoplex suspension. While the aqueous reconstitution, CUR dissolution, and amorphous form were minimally affected by the elevated heat and humidity exposures, the treated nanoplex exhibited a lower BSA payload (≈7–26% loss) and increased protein aggregation postexposure. The adverse effects on the BSA payload and aggregation were minimized at higher sucrose mass fractions.

Abstract
BSA can form amyloid-like aggregates in vitro at 65 °C. Heterologous amyloid can proposedly cross-seed other protein's aggregation, however, general mechanisms and driving conditions remain to be vividly elucidated. Here, we examined if pre-formed HEWL amyloid can cross-seed the aggregation of BSA at physiological temperature, 37 °C, and whether the efficacy depends on the BSA conformation. We find that at pH 3.0, 37 °C where BSA manifests exposure of abundant hydrophobic patches, HEWL amyloid efficiently drives BSA into ThT-positive, sarkosyl-resistant, β-sheet rich amyloid-like aggregates exhibiting fibrils in TEM. On the contrary, HEWL amyloid fails to cross-seed the BSA aggregation at pH 7.0, 37 °C where BSA has largely internalized hydrophobic patches. Strikingly, human lysozyme amyloid could also cross-seed human serum albumin aggregation at pH 3.0, 37 °C. Thus, heterologous amyloid cross-seeding can help overcome the energy-barrier for aggregation of other proteins that, for any reason, may have perturbed and promiscuous structural conformation at physiological temperatures.

Abstract
A surface modulated biodegradable transdermal strategy has been exploited for improving the biopharmaceutical properties of Temozolomide augmented in Poly Lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) chitosan double walled nanogel (PCNGL). The PCNGL was synthesized by dual approach methodology showing consistent nanosize particle range of 210 nm and PDI 0.325 ± 0.43 with cationic zeta potential values +29.34 ± 0.79 mV. The PCNGL showed qualitative endothermic & exothermic temperature dependent degradation peaks by thermogravimetry analysis. Blood hemolysis and coagulation assay showed 3.37 ± 0.19 as hemolytic ratio, validating biologically safe margin for transdermal delivery. The in vitro drug release showed 85% transdermal release at slightly acidic pH mimicking skin microenvironment. The ex vivo studies displayed noteworthy penetration potential validated by concentration depth assay and confocal laser scanning microscopy, exhibiting 80% Temozolomide uptake in porcine epidermal tissue. The current research demonstrated the biodegradable controlled delivery of chemotherapeutic Temozolomide leading to biologically safe transdermal therapy.

Abstract
This review is the ninth update of the original article published in 1999 on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2016. Also included are papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation techniques, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. Topics covered in the first part of the review include general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation and arrays. The second part of the review is devoted to applications to various structural types such as oligo- and poly-saccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals. Much of this material is presented in tabular form. The third part of the review covers medical and industrial applications of the technique, studies of enzyme reactions and applications to chemical synthesis. The reported work shows increasing use of combined new techniques such as ion mobility and the enormous impact that MALDI imaging is having. MALDI, although invented over 30 years ago is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis and advancements in the technique and range of applications show no sign of deminishing. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Biological drugs, specifically proteins and peptides, are a privileged class of medicinal agents and are characterized with high specificity and high potency of therapeutic activity. However, biologics are fragile and require special care during storage, and are often modified to optimize their pharmacokinetics in terms of proteolytic stability and blood residence half-life. In this review, we showcase glycosylation as a method to optimize biologics for storage and application. Specifically, we focus on chemical glycosylation as an approach to modify biological drugs. We present case studies that illustrate the success of this methodology and specifically address the highly important question: does connectivity within the glycoconjugate have to be native or not? We then present the innovative methods of chemical glycosylation of biologics and specifically highlight the emerging and established protecting group-free methodologies of glycosylation. We discuss thermodynamic origins of protein stabilization via glycosylation, and analyze in detail stabilization in terms of proteolytic stability, aggregation upon storage and/or heat treatment. Finally, we present a case study of protein modification using sialic acid-containing glycans to avoid hepatic clearance of biological drugs. This review aims to spur interest in chemical glycosylation as a facile, powerful tool to optimize proteins and peptides as medicinal agents.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia and the production of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are the primary factors for the development of chronic complications in diabetes. The level of protein glycation is proportional to the glucose concentration and represents mean glycemia. In this study, we present an electrochemical chip-based method for in vitro glycation monitoring and the efficacy evaluation of an antiglycation compound. An electrochemical chip consisting of five microchambers and embedded microelectrodes was designed for parallel measurements of capacitance signals from multiple solutions at different concentrations. The feasibility of glycation monitoring was then investigated by measuring the capacitance signal at 0.13 MHz with bovine serum albumin and gelatin samples in the presence of various glucose concentrations over 28 days. A significant change in the capacitance due to protein glycation was observed through measurements conducted within 30 s and 21 days of incubation. Finally, we demonstrated that the chip-based capacitance measurement can be utilized for the selection of an antiglycation compound by supplementing the protein solution and hyperglycemic concentration of glucose with an inhibitory concentration of the standard antiglycation agent aspirin. The lack of a significant change in the capacitance over 28 days proved that aspirin is capable of inhibiting protein glycation. Thus, a strong relationship exists between glycation and capacitance, suggesting the application of an electrochemical chip for evaluating glycation and novel antiglycation agents.

Improving the functional properties of bovine serum albumin-glucose conjugates in natural deep eutectic solvents. Food Chem 2020; 328:127122. [PMID: 32480260 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.127122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Revised: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 05/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Glycation between target proteins and saccharides is time-consuming or requires high temperatures. Here, a promising reaction medium, natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES), for glucose glycation with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was applied to improve the grafting of glucose-glycated BSA by shifting reaction equilibrium. Two types of glucose-glycated BSA products were prepared using NADES and water systems. SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF-MS revealed that BSA and glucose were covalently bonded. Compared with in water system, glycated BSA products in NADES system had more -OH groups, more disordered secondary structures, lower intrinsic fluorescence intensity, and higher ultraviolet-visible absorption. Lower surface hydrophobicity (1100 versus 1356), higher emulsifying activity index (66.17 versus 46.49 m2/g), higher emulsion stability index (79.62 versus 63.61%), and lesser free sulfhydryl (8.07 versus 8.98 μmol/g) groups were obtained with NADES system than with water system. The results suggest that NADES is a suitable alternative reaction medium for promoting the glycation of BSA.

Abstract
Recently, the concerns about micro- and nano-plastics (NPs) toxicity have been increasing constantly, however the investigations are quiet meager. The present study provides evidences on the toxicological prospectives of virgin-, coronated- and isolated-NPs on human blood cells and Allium cepa root tip, respectively. Several plasma proteins displayed strong affinity towards NPs and produced multi-layered corona of 13 nm to 600 nm size. The coronated-NPs often attracted each other via non-specific protein-protein attraction which subsequently induced protein-induced coalescence in NPs. In the protein point of view, the interaction caused conformational changes and denaturation of protein thereby turned it as bio-incompatible. The coronated-NPs with increased protein confirmation changes caused higher genotoxic and cytotoxic effect in human blood cells than the virgin-NPs. On the other hand, virgin-NPs and the NPs isolated from facial scrubs hindered the root growth and caused chromosome aberration (ring formation, C-mitotic and chromosomal breaks, etc.) in root of Allium cepa. At the outset, the present study highlights the urgent need of scrutinization and regulation of NPs use in medical applications and pre-requisition of additional studies for assessing the bio-accumulation and bio-magnification of NPs.

Abstract
The reaction of free amino groups in proteins with reactive carbonyl species, known as glycation, leads to the formation of mixtures of products, collectively referred to as advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs). These compounds have been implicated in several important diseases, but their role in pathogenesis and clinical symptoms' development is still debated. Particularly, AGEs are often associated to the formation of amyloid deposits in conformational diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and it has been suggested that they might influence the mechanisms and kinetics of protein aggregation. We here present the characterization of the products of glycation of the model protein MNEI with methylglyoxal and their effect on the protein structure. We demonstrate that, despite being an uncontrolled process, glycation occurs only at specific residues of the protein. Moreover, while not affecting the protein fold, it alters its shape and hydrodynamic properties and increases its tendency to fibrillar aggregation. Our study opens the way to in deep structural investigations to shed light on the complex link between protein post-translational modifications, structure, and stability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycation is an approach in dealing with heat-induced protein aggregation. The relationship between degree of glycation and heat-induced structural changes is still unclear. The present work investigates the effect of different numbers and sites of glycated residues on heat-induced structural changes of bovine serum albumin (BSA). Glycation of BSA was carried out with xylose (Xyl) and galactose (Gal) by Maillard reaction. Glycated residues in BSA were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and heat-induced protein structural changes were characterized by fluorescence emission and synchronous fluorescence spectra, 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectra. RESULTS The numbers of glycated residues were 2 and 13 when BSA was glycated by Gal (BSA - Gal) and Xyl (BSA - Xyl), respectively. There were shifts of maximum wavelengths and decreases in fluorescence intensities for both intrinsic and extrinsic fluorescences; shifts of FTIR amide I, III, and A bands; and decrease or increase of CD band intensities, α-helix and β-sheet percentages when BSA was heated. Glycation with Gal or Xyl restrained in similar degrees those changes, including fluorescence wavelengths, amide I band, CD band intensities, and α-helix and β-sheet percentages. CONCLUSION Xyl glycated more residues than Gal, while their effects were similar in restraining heat-induced BSA structural changes. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.
