Pal S, Arisha R, Mazumder PM. A systematic review of preclinical studies targeted toward the management of co-existing functional gastrointestinal disorders, stress, and gut dysbiosis. NAUNYN-SCHMIEDEBERG'S ARCHIVES OF PHARMACOLOGY 2024:10.1007/s00210-024-03332-z. [PMID: 39096376 DOI: 10.1007/s00210-024-03332-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/05/2024]
Abstract
Modern dietary habits and stressed lifestyle have escalated the tendency to develop functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) through alteration in the gut-brain-microbiome axis. Clinical practices use symptomatic treatments, neglect root causes, and prolong distress in patients. The past decade has seen the evolution of various interventions to attenuate FGIDs. But clinical translation of such studies is very rare mostly due to lack of awareness. The aim of this review is to meticulously integrate different studies and bridge this knowledge gap. Literature between 2013 and 2023 was retrieved from PubMed, ProQuest, and Web of Science. The data was extracted based on the PRISMA guidelines and using the SYRCLE's risk of bias and the Cochrane Risk of Bias tools, quality assessment was performed. The review has highlighted molecular insights into the coexistence of FGIDs, stress, and gut dysbiosis. Furthermore, novel interventions focusing on diet, probiotics, herbal formulations, and phytoconstituents were explored which mostly had a multitargeted approach for the management of the diseases. Scientific literature implied positive interactions between the interventions and the gut microbiome by increasing the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria and reducing stress-related hormones. Moreover, the interventions reduced intestinal inflammation and regulated the expression of epithelial tight junction proteins in different in vivo models. This systematic review delves deep into the preclinical interventions to manage coexisting FGIDs, stress, and gut dysbiosis. However, in most of the discussed studies, long-term risks and toxicity profile of the interventions are lacking. So, it is necessary to highlight them for improved clinical outcomes.

Yuan M, Zhang Z, Liu T, Feng H, Liu Y, Chen K. The Role of Nondigestible Oligosaccharides in Alleviating Human Chronic Diseases by Regulating the Gut Microbiota: A Review. Foods 2024; 13:2157.

Abstract
The gut has been a focus of chronic disease research. The gut microbiota produces metabolites that act as signaling molecules and substrates, closely influencing host health. Nondigestible oligosaccharides (NDOs), as a common dietary fiber, play an important role in regulating the structure and function of the gut microbiota. Their mechanism of action is mainly attributed to providing a carbon source as specific probiotics, producing related metabolites, and regulating the gut microbial community. However, due to the selective utilization of oligosaccharides, some factors, such as the type and structure of oligosaccharides, have different impacts on the composition of microbial populations and the production of metabolites in the colon ecosystem. This review systematically describes the key factors influencing the selective utilization of oligosaccharides by microorganisms and elaborates how oligosaccharides affect the host's immune system, inflammation levels, and energy metabolism by regulating microbial diversity and metabolic function, which in turn affects the onset and progress of chronic diseases, especially diabetes, obesity, depression, intestinal inflammatory diseases, and constipation. In this review, we re-examine the interaction mechanisms between the gut microbiota and its associated metabolites and diseases, and we explore new strategies for promoting human health and combating chronic diseases through dietary interventions.

[PMID: 38931130 PMCID: PMC11207311 DOI: 10.3390/plants13121699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2024] [Revised: 06/14/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Enhancing root development is pivotal for boosting crop yield and augmenting stress resilience. In this study, we explored the regulatory effects of xylooligosaccharides (XOSs) on lettuce root growth, comparing their impact with that of indole-3-butyric acid potassium salt (IBAP). Treatment with XOS led to a substantial increase in root dry weight (30.77%), total root length (29.40%), volume (21.58%), and surface area (25.44%) compared to the water-treated control. These enhancements were on par with those induced by IBAP. Comprehensive phytohormone profiling disclosed marked increases in indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), zeatin riboside (ZR), methyl jasmonate (JA-ME), and brassinosteroids (BRs) following XOS application. Through RNA sequencing, we identified 3807 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the roots of XOS-treated plants, which were significantly enriched in pathways associated with manganese ion homeostasis, microtubule motor activity, and carbohydrate metabolism. Intriguingly, approximately 62.7% of the DEGs responsive to XOS also responded to IBAP, underscoring common regulatory mechanisms. However, XOS uniquely influenced genes related to cutin, suberine, and wax biosynthesis, as well as plant hormone signal transduction, hinting at novel mechanisms of stress tolerance. Prominent up-regulation of genes encoding beta-glucosidase and beta-fructofuranosidase highlights enhanced carbohydrate metabolism as a key driver of XOS-induced root enhancement. Collectively, these results position XOS as a promising, sustainable option for agricultural biostimulation.

Valorization of rice straw and vascular aquatic weeds for sustainable prebiotic hemicellulosic autohydrolysate production: Extraction, characterization and fermentability. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:35744-35759.

Abstract
This study describes the extraction and characterization of the hemicellulosic autohydrolysates (HAHs) derived from rice straw (RS) and vascular aquatic weeds like Typha angustifolia (TA) and Ceretophyllum demersum (CD). It further explores their capacity to sustain the proliferation of selected lactic acid bacteria (i.e., prebiotic activity) isolated from milk samples. To fractionate HAH from RS, TA and CD hot water extraction (HWE) method was used and RS, TA, and CD biomasses yielded 6.8, 4.99 and 2.98% of HAH corresponding to the hemicellulose extraction efficiencies of 26.15 ± 0.8%, 23.76 ± 0.6%, and 18.62 ± 0.4% respectively. The chemical characterization of HAH concentrates through HPLC showed that they comprised galactose, arabinose, xylose and glucose. The total phenol content of the RS, TA and CD-derived HAH concentrates were 37.53, 56.78 and 48.08 mg GAE/g. The five lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolates Q1B, Q2A, Q3B, G1C and G2B selected for prebiotic activity assays generated mixed responses with the highest growth in RS-HAH for Q2A and the least in TA-HAH for Q3B. Further, the isolates Q2A, Q3B, G1C, and G2B, which showed the highest growth performance, were identified through MALDI-TOF and 16S rRNA sequencing as Lactobacillus brevis. All the tested LAB isolates showed diauxic growth in crude HAH preparations to maximize the utilization of carbon resources for their proliferation. This suggests that the selected LAB isolates are efficient degraders of hemicellulosic sugars. This paves the way for the valorization of lignocellulosic biomass to produce prebiotic hemicellulosic autohydrolysate and consequently enhances environmental sustainability by improving resource efficiency.

Abstract
In vitro digestion models, as innovative assessment tools, possess advantages such as speed, high throughput, low cost, and high repeatability. They have been widely applied to the investigation of food digestion behavior and its potential impact on health. In recent years, research on edible polysaccharides in the field of intestinal health has been increasing. However, there is still a lack of systematic reviews on the application of microbial-derived edible polysaccharides in in vitro intestinal models. This review thoroughly discusses the limitations and challenges of static and dynamic in vitro digestion experiments, while providing an in-depth introduction to several typical in vitro digestion models. In light of this, we focus on the degradability of microbial polysaccharides and oligosaccharides, with a particular emphasis on edible microbial polysaccharides typically utilized in the food industry, such as xanthan gum and gellan gum, and their potential impacts on intestinal health. Through this review, a more comprehensive understanding of the latest developments in microbial polysaccharides, regarding probiotic delivery, immobilization, and probiotic potential, is expected, thus providing an expanded and deepened perspective for their application in functional foods.

Abstract
Xylooligosaccharides (XOS), as prebiotic oligomers, are increasingly receiving attention as high value-added products produced from lignocellulosic biomass. Although the XOS contains a series of different degrees of polymerization (DP) of xylose units, DP 2 and 3 (xylobiose (X2) and xylotriose (X3)) are regarded as the main active components in food and pharmaceutical fields. Therefore, in the study, in order to achieve the maximum production of XOS with the desired DP, a combination strategy of sequential auto-hydrolysis and xylanase hydrolysis was developed with corncob as raw material. The evidences showed that the hemicellulosic xylan could be effectively decomposed into various higher DP saccharides (> 4), which were dissolved into the auto-hydrolysate; sequentially, the soluble saccharides could be rapidly hydrolyzed into XOS with desired DP by xylanase hydrolysis. Finally, a maximum XOS yield of 56.3% was achieved and the ratio of (X2 + X3)/XOS was over 80%; meanwhile, the by-products could be controlled at lower levels. Overall, this study provides solid data that support the selective and precise preparation of XOS from corncob, vigorously promoting the application of XOS as functional sugar products.

Abstract
Xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) are considered as a promising type of prebiotics that can be used in foods, feeds, and healthcare products. Xylanases play a key role in the production of XOS from xylan. In this study, we conducted a metagenomic analysis of the fecal microbiota from dairy cows fed with different types of fodders. Despite the diversity in their diets, the main phyla observed in all fecal microbiota were Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. At the genus level, one group of dairy cows that were fed probiotic fermented herbal mixture-containing fodders displayed decreased abundance of Methanobrevibacter and increased growth of beneficial Akkermansia bacteria. Additionally, this group exhibited a high microbial richness and diversity. Through our analysis, we obtained a comprehensive dataset comprising over 280,000 carbohydrate-active enzyme genes. Among these, we identified a total of 163 potential xylanase genes and subsequently expressed 34 of them in Escherichia coli. Out of the 34 expressed genes, two alkaline xylanases with excellent temperature stability and pH tolerance were obtained. Notably, CDW-xyl-8 exhibited xylanase activity of 96.1 ± 7.5 U/mg protein, with an optimal working temperature of 55 ℃ and optimal pH of 8.0. CDW-xyl-16 displayed an activity of 427.3 ± 9.1 U/mg protein with an optimal pH of 8.5 and an optimal temperature at 40 ℃. Bioinformatic analyses and structural modeling suggest that CDW-xyl-8 belongs to GH10 family xylanase, and CDW-xyl-16 is a GH11 family xylanase. Both enzymes have the ability to hydrolyze beechwood xylan and produce XOS. In conclusion, this metagenomic study provides valuable insights into the fecal microbiota composition of dairy cows fed different fodder types, revealing main microbial groups and demonstrating the abundance of xylanases. Furthermore, the characterization of two novel xylanases highlights their potential application in XOS production.

Abstract
Students' behaviors have a close relationship with their learning efficiencies, particularly about professional knowledge. Different types of behaviors should have different influences. Disclosing the special relationship between undergraduate students' conscious safety behaviors in their laboratory experiments with their learning efficiencies is important for fostering them into professional talents. In this study, a course entitled "Advanced Methods of Materials Characterization" was arranged to contain three sections: theoretical learning in the classroom, eight characterization experiments in the laboratory in sequence, and self-training to apply the knowledge. In the final examination, eighteen percent was allocated to the examination questions about safety issues. The students' scores for this section were associated with their total roll scores. Two quantitative relationships are disclosed. One is between the students' final examination score (y) and their subjective consciousness of safety behaviors (x) in their laboratory experiments, as y = 5.56 + 4.83 x (R = 0.9192). The other is between their grade point average (y) and safety behavior evaluation (x) as y = 0.51 + 0.15 x (R = 0.7296). Undergraduate students' behaviors in scientific laboratories need to be verified to have a close and positive relationship with their professional knowledge learning efficiencies. This offers a hint that improving students' safety behaviors and enhancing their subjective safety awareness are conducive to improving their learning efficiency for professional knowledge.

Abstract
A new biphasic organic solvent, phenoxyethanol-maleic acid, was carried out to pretreat and fractionate vinegar residue into glucan, xylan and lignin under mild conditions. Additional effects of key factors, temperature and phenoxyethanol concentration, on vinegar residue, were evaluated. Under the biphasic system (0.5% maleic acid, 60% phenoxyethanol), 140 °C cooking vinegar residue for 1 h, 80.91% of cellulose retention in solid residue, 75.44% of hemicellulose removal and 69.28% of lignin removal were obtained. Optimal identified conditions resulted in maximum XOS of 47.3%. Then, the solid residue was enzymatically digested with a glucose yield of 82.67% at 72 h with the addition of 2.5 g/L bovine serum albumin. Finally, the residue was characterized by SEM, FTIR, XRD and BET analysis. This work demonstrated the phenoxyethanol-maleic acid pretreatment yielded XOS, fermentable sugar, and lignin with high processibility.

Abstract
Endo-1,4-β-xylanase catalyzes the random hydrolysis of β-1,4-D-xylosidic bonds in xylan, resulting in the formation of oligomers of xylose. This study aims to demonstrate the promise of endoxylanases from alkaliphilic Bacillus halodurans for the production of xylooligosaccharides (XOS) from oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) at high pH. Two enzyme preparations were employed: recombinant endoxylanase Xyn45 (GH10 xylanase) and nonrecombinant endoxylanases, a mixture of two extracellular endo-1,4-β-xylanases Xyn45 and Xyn23 (GH11 xylanase) produced by B. halodurans. EFB was first treated with an alkaline solution. Then, the dissolved xylan-containing fraction was retained, and a prepared enzyme was added to react at pH 8 to convert xylan into XOS. Compared with the use of only Xyn45, the combined use of Xyn45 and Xyn23 resulted in a higher yield of XOS, suggesting the synergistic effect of the two endoxylanases. The yield of XOS obtained from EFB was as high as 46.77% ± 1.64% (w/w), with the xylobiose-to-xylotriose ratio being 6:5. However, when the enzyme activity dose was low, the product contained more xylotriose than xylobiose. Four probiotic lactobacilli and bifidobacteria grew well on a medium containing XOS from EFB. The presence of XOS increased cell mass and reduced pH, suggesting that XOS promoted the growth of probiotics.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop a novel ultrathin fibrous membrane with a core-sheath structure as an antioxidant food packaging membrane. The core-sheath structure was prepared by coaxial electrospinning, and the release of active substances was regulated by its special structure. Ferulic acid (FA) was incorporated into the electrospun zein/polyethylene oxide ultrathin fibers to ensure their synergistic antioxidant properties. We found that the prepared ultrathin fibers had a good morphology and smooth surface. The internal structure of the fibers was stable, and the three materials that we used were compatible. For the different loading positions, it was observed that the core layer ferulic-acid-loaded fibers had a sustained action, while the sheath layer ferulic-acid-loaded fibers had a pre-burst action. Finally, apples were selected for packaging using fibrous membranes to simulate practical applications. The fibrous membrane was effective in reducing water loss and apple quality loss, as well as extending the shelf life. According to these experiments, the FA-loaded zein/PEO coaxial electrospinning fiber can be used as antioxidant food packaging and will also undergo more improvements in the future.

Improve Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Lignocellulosic Biomass by Modifying Lignin Structure via Sulfite Pretreatment and Using Lignin Blockers. FERMENTATION-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/fermentation8100558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Even traditional pretreatments can partially remove or degrade lignin and hemicellulose from lignocellulosic biomass for enhancing its enzymatic digestibility, the remaining lignin in pretreated biomass still restricts its enzymatic hydrolysis by limiting cellulose accessibility and lignin-enzyme nonproductive interaction. Therefore, many pretreatments that can modify lignin structure in a unique way and approaches to block the lignin’s adverse impact have been proposed to directly improve the enzymatic digestibility of pretreated biomass. In this review, recent development in sulfite pretreatment that can transform the native lignin into lignosulfonate and subsequently enhance saccharification of pretreated biomass under certain conditions was summarized. In addition, we also reviewed the approaches of the addition of reactive agents to block the lignin’s reactive sites and limit the cellulase-enzyme adsorption during hydrolysis. It is our hope that this summary can provide a guideline for workers engaged in biorefining for the goal of reaching high enzymatic digestibility of lignocellulose.

Abstract
Since the immune-boosting properties as well as the benefit of promoting the growth of gut bacteria, xylooligosaccharides as prebiotics have attracted considerable interest as functional feed additives around the world. A growing number of studies suggest that acidic hydrolysis is the most cost-effective method for treating xylan materials to prepare xylooligosaccharides, and organic acids were proved to be more preferable. Therefore, in this study, glutamic acid, as an edible and nutritive organic acid, was employed as a catalyst for hydrolyzing xylan materials to prepare xylooligosaccharides. Further, xylooligosaccharide yields were optimized using the response surface methodology with central composite designs. Through the response surface methodology, 28.2 g/L xylooligosaccharides with the desirable degree of polymerization (2-4) at a yield of 40.5 % could be achieved using 4.5% glutamic acid at 163°C for 41 min. Overall, the application of glutamic acid as a catalyst could be a potentially cost-effective method for producing xylooligosaccharides.

Abstract
Prebiotics and probiotics play a positive role in promoting human nutrition and health. Prebiotics are compounds that cannot be digested by the host, but can be used and fermented by probiotics, so as to promote the reproduction and metabolism of intestinal probiotics for the health of body. It has been confirmed that probiotics have clinical or health care functions in preventing or controlling intestinal, respiratory, and urogenital infections, allergic reaction, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome and other aspects. However, there are few systematic summaries of these types, mechanisms of action and the promotion relationship between prebiotics and probiotic. Therefore, we summarized the various types of prebiotics and probiotics, their individual action mechanisms, and the mechanism of prebiotics promoting probiotics in the intestinal tract. It is hoped this review can provide new ideas for the application of prebiotics and probiotics in the future.

Abstract
In this work, hydrothermal pretreatment (autohydrolysis) was coupled with endo-xylanase enzymatic hydrolysis for bamboo shoot shell (BSS) to produce glucose and valuable xylooligosaccharides (XOS) rich in xylobiose (X2) and xylotriose (X3). Results showed that the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of pretreated BSS residue reached 88.4% with addition of PEG during the hydrolysis process. To enrich the portions of X2–X3 in XOS, endo-xylanase was used to hydrolyze the XOS in the prehydrolysate, which was obtained at the optimum condition (170°C, 50 min). After enzymatic hydrolysis, the yield of XOS reached 25.6%, which contained 76.7% of X2–X3. Moreover, the prehydrolysate contained a low concentration of fermentation inhibitors (formic acid 0.7 g/L, acetic acid 2.6 g/L, furfural 0.7 g/L). Based on mass balance, 32.1 g of glucose and 6.6 g of XOS (containing 5.1 g of X2-X3) could be produced from 100.0 g of BSS by the coupled technology. These results indicate that BSS could be an economical feedstock for the production of glucose and XOS.
