Abstract
Herein an enzyme-assisted supercritical fluid extraction (EA-SFE) was developed using the enzyme mix snailase to obtain flavonols and dihydrochalcones, subgroups of flavonoids, from globally abundant waste product apple pomace. Snailase, a commercially available mix of 20-30 enzymes, was successfully used to remove the sugar moieties from quercetin glycosides, kaempferol glycosides, phloridzin and 3-hydroxyphloridzin. The resulting flavonoid aglycones quercetin, kaempferol, phloretin and 3-hydroxyphloretin were extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) and minimum amounts of polar cosolvents. A sequential process of enzymatic hydrolysis and supercritical fluid extraction was developed, and the influence of the amount of snailase, pre-treatment of apple pomace, the time for enzymatic hydrolysis, the amount and type of cosolvent and the time for extraction, was studied. This revealed that even small amounts of snailase (0.25 %) provide a successful cleavage of sugar moieties up to 96 % after 2 h of enzymatic hydrolysis followed by supercritical fluid extraction with small amounts of methanol as cosolvent, leading up to 90 % of the total extraction yields after 1 h extraction time. Ultimately, a simultaneous process of EA-SFE successfully demonstrates the potential of snailase in scalable scCO2 extraction processes for dry and wet apple pomace with satisfactory enzyme activity, even under pressurized conditions.

Efficient snailase-based production of mogrol from Luo Han Guo extract in an aqueous-organic system. Enzyme Microb Technol 2023; 165:110212. [PMID: 36804180 DOI: 10.1016/j.enzmictec.2023.110212] [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: 11/10/2022] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/13/2023]
Abstract
To solve the insufficient availability of mogrol, an 11α-hydroxy aglycone of mogrosides in Siraitia grosvenorii, snailase was employed as the enzyme to completely deglycosylate LHG extract containing 50% mogroside V. Other commonly used glycosidases performed less efficiently. Response surface methodology was conducted to optimize the productivity of mogrol, which peaked at 74.7% in an aqueous reaction. In view of the differences in water-solubility between mogrol and LHG extract, we employed an aqueous-organic system for the snailase-catalyzed reaction. Of five tested organic solvents, toluene performed best and was relatively well tolerated by snailase. After optimization, biphasic medium containing 30% toluene (v/v) could produce a high-quality mogrol (98.1% purity) at a 0.5 L scale with a production rate of 93.2% within 20 h. This toluene-aqueous biphasic system would not only provide sufficient mogrol to construct future synthetic biology systems for the preparation of mogrosides, but also facilitate the development of mogrol-based medicines.

Abstract
Background Patrinia scabra Bunge is a well-known herbal medicine for its favorable treatment on inflammatory diseases owing to its effective ingredients, in which iridoid glycoside plays an extremely significant role. This article aimed to improve the content of total iridoid glycosides in crude extract through a series optimization of extraction procedure. Moreover, considering that both pain and inflammation are two correlated responses triggered in response to injury, irritants or pathogen, the article investigated the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of P. scabra to screen out the active fraction. Method P. scabra was extracted by ultrasonic-microwave synergistic extraction (UMSE) to obtain total iridoid glycosides (PSI), during which a series of conditions were investigated based on single-factor experiments. The extraction process was further optimized by a reliable statistical method of response surface methodology (RSM). The elution fractions of P. scabra extract were prepared by macroporous resin column chromatography. Through the various animal experiment including acetic acid-induced writhing test, formalin induced licking and flinching, carrageenan-induced mice paw oedema test and xylene-induced ear edema in mice, the active fractions with favorable analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect were reasonably screen out. Results The content of PSI could reach up to 81.42 ± 0.31 mg/g under the optimum conditions as follows: ethanol concentration of 52%, material-to-liquid ratio of 1:18 g/mL, microwave power at 610 W and extraction time of 45 min. After gradient elution by the macroporous resin, the content of PSI increased significantly. Compared with other concentrations of elution liquid, the content of PSI in 30 and 50% ethanol eluate was increased to reach 497.65 and 506.90 mg/g, respectively. Owing to the pharmacology experiment, it was reasonably revealed that 30 and 50% ethanol elution fractions of P. scabra could relieve pain centrally and peripherally, exhibiting good analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities. Conclusion Patrinia scabra possessed rich iridoids and exhibited significant analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities.

Abstract
Plants typically contain a broad spectrum of flavonoids in varying concentrations. As a rule, several flavonoid classes occur in parallel, and, even for a single flavonoid, divergent glycosylation patterns are frequently observed, many of which are not commercially available. This can be challenging in studies in which the distribution between flavonoid classes, or features that are not affected by glycosylation patterns, are adressed. In addition, hydrolysis simplifies the quantification process by reducing peak interferences and improving the peak intensity due to the accumulation of the respective aglycone. Effective removal of glycose moieties can also be relevant for technological applications of flavonoid aglycones. Herein, we present a fast and reliable method for the enzymatic hydrolysis glycosides from plant extracts using the commercial enzyme mix snailase, which provided the highest aglycone yields across all investigated flavonoids (aurones: leptosidin, maritimetin, sulfuretin; chalcones: butein, lanceoletin, okanin, phloretin; dihydroflavonols: dihydrokaempferol; flavanones: eriodictyol, hesperetin; flavones: acacetin, apigenin, diosmetin, luteolin; flavonols: isorhamnetin, kaempferol, myricetin, quercetin; isoflavones: biochanin A, formononetin, genistein) from methanolic extracts of nine plants (Bidens ferulifolia, Coreopsis grandiflora, Fagus sylvatica, Malus × domestica, Mentha × piperita, Petunia × hybrida, Quercus robur, Robinia pseudoacacia, and Trifolium pratense) in comparison to four other enzymes (cellobiase, cellulase, β-glucosidase, and pectinase), as well as to acidic hydrolysis by hydrochloric acid.

Abstract
Lactobacillus acidophilus is an important probiotic. The β-glucosidase produced by L. acidophilus GIM1.208 can transform quercetin glycosides of Rosa roxburghii Tratt to release quercetin and improve the functional activity of raw materials. Understanding the interaction and the characteristics of the two will lay a theoretical foundation for the site-directed transformation and functional application of the catalytic active site of enzymes. In our study, using the heterologously expressed and highly stable, purified L. acidophilus GIM1.208 BGL as the strain, the representative quercetin in β-glucosidase and Rosa roxburghii Tratt was preliminarily predicted and explored using ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy. Fluorescence spectroscopy combined with molecular docking was used to determine the interaction characteristics of the glycoside substrates, rutin (Rut) and isoquercitrin (Iso). Results from molecular docking showed that Asp159, Arg56, Iso294, Phe292, and Gly25 were the main residues of β-glucosidase and Rut. Arg56 was found to be the most crucial residue of β-glucosidase and isoquercitrin; the interaction between Rut and Iso and β-glucosidase was mainly driven by hydrogen bonding. The combined free energy of β-glucosidase and Iso was found to be -182.10 kcal/mol, while that of β-glucosidase and Rut was -32.37 kcal/mol. The results of fluorescence spectroscopy showed that the fluorescence intensity of β-glucosidase decreased with an increase in Rut and Iso concentrations. This interaction made β-glucosidase quench endogenous fluorescence, which was static quenching. The binding constants of Rut and Iso with β-glucosidase were determined to be 0.50×107 and 0.31×107 L/mol, respectively, indicating that rutin had a stronger affinity when interacting with β-glucosidase. These findings were consistent with our prediction results determined using molecular docking studies.

Abstract
The acquisition of resveratrol from Polygonum cuspidatum is complicated and costs organic solvents due to extraction and hydrolysis of its corresponding glycoside (polydatin). In this work, a novel one-pot method based on deep eutectic solvent (DES) was developed for simultaneous extraction and conversion of polydatin to resveratrol from Polygonum cuspidatum for the first time. The extraction yield of resveratrol by DES-based one-pot method were significantly higher than that of water, methanol and ethanol. After optimization by One-Variable-at-a-Time and response surface methodology, the extraction yield of resveratrol reached 12.26 ± 0.14 mg/g within 80 min. The conversation efficiency of polydatin to resveratrol in Polygonum cuspidatum from five different origins was more than 96.3%. Scanning electron microscope results indicated the selected DES disrupted plant cell walls to enhance the yield of resveratrol. The results indicated that one green method was successfully established for efficient extraction and conversion of polydatin to resveratrol from Polygonum cuspidatum.

Abstract
Ginkgo biloba L. leaf (GBL) is one of the most commonly used medicinal plants in the world. Phenolic acids with biological activities have a relatively high content in G. biloba leaf extracts (GBE); therefore they are of great significance for the quality control of GBL, GBE and its preparations. However, there have been few studies focused on their analysis. In this work, 12 phenolic acids, including 11 phenolic acid glycosides, were identified by liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-Q-TOF/MS). Then, a method combining enzymolysis with HPLC was established for quantification of phenolic acid glycosides. It was found that the aglycones of phenolic acid glycosides mainly comprised five phenolic acids: 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzoic acid, protocatechuic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, vanillic acid and p-coumaric acid. The quantitative method was validated, and the correlation coefficient (0.9993-0.9999), recovery (≥88.4%), repeatability (≤0.8%), and inter-day precision (≤5.5%) were satisfactory. Finally, the contents of glycosides of five phenolic acids in GBL, GBE and GBE injection from different sources were determined by the developed method. The method was accurate, repeatable and practicable, which could be helpful for the quantification of phenolic acid glycosides in other products containing GBL or GBE.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a bioactive compound in high quantities in Polygonum cuspidatum, has well-known health benefits. However, it mainly exists in its glycosidic form, polydatin, in plants. To increase the production of resveratrol for various uses in medicine, foods, and cosmetics, an efficient deglycosylation technique is needed for converting polydatin into resveratrol. We screened a new cellulolytic strain of Bacillus from herb compost, and we optimized parameters within the fermentation process using response surface methodology with a Box-Behnken design. The yield of cellulase reached 2701.08 U/L, corresponding to values that were 5.4 times as high as those under unoptimized conditions. The Bacillus cellulase possessed good thermostablity and was stable under both acidic and neutral conditions. The cellulase was then used in the pretreatment of P. cuspidatum root. After incubation at 50°C for 4 h with shaking at 150 rpm, the contents of piceid and resveratrol were determined to be 7.60 ± 0.15 and 9.72 ± 0.29 mg/g, respectively. To obtain complete deglycosylation, immobilized β-glucosidase (bgl2238) was added to the cellulase-treated extracts of P. cuspidatum root to convert residual polydatin into resveratrol. After the first cycle, the contents of piceid and resveratrol were determined to be 0 and 13.69 ± 0.30 mg/g, respectively. Moreover, enzyme activity showed little loss during up to 4 consecutive cycles. These results demonstrated that the immobilized β-glucosidase possessed high deglycosylation activity and outstanding operational stability. The mixture of Bacillus cellulase and immobilized bgl2238 appears promising as a means to increase the supply of resveratrol in the medicine market worldwide.

Abstract
Icariin has a significant anti-osteoporotic activity, but its clinical application is limited due to a poor oral bioavailability especially under pathological conditions like osteoporosis. Based on the intestinal absorption and metabolism characteristics of icariin in the osteoporosis rats, a kind of simple enteric capsules containing icariin and snailase was designed to overcome this issue in this study. Snailase was secleted as the most efficient exogenous hydrolase of icariin and the related hydrolysis reaction parameters were optimized in the artificial intestinal liquid. Moreover, the hydrolysates of icariin were proved more effective in promoting the rat calvarial osteoblast proliferation than icariin by the MTT assay. Therefore, snailase and icariin were packed into the enteric-coated capsules at an appropriate mass ratio of 1:1 to prepare the icariin loaded enteric-coated capsules (IECs), and then the in vitro release and in vivo pharmacokinetic behavior of IECs was evaluated. Icariin was almost completely hydrolyzed within 4h and approximately 89% of the total flavonoid had been released from IECs at 0.75h in the release medium, which met the requirement of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia on enteric preparations and the Weibull function model. The pharmacokinetic data showed IECs could significantly improved the integrated oral bioavailability of icariin by 50% compared to the IP (icariin without the snailase) in the ovariectomized rats, but no obvious difference was observed in the sham rats. The aforementioned results suggested that such a strategy of icariin combined with the snailase held a great potential in promoting the intestinal hydrolysis and absorption of icariin in the osteoporosis status, providing new research ideas for the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine with similar properties.

Abstract
Resveratrol exerts several pharmacological activities, including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, or antioxidant effects. However, due to its occurrence in plants more in glycosidic form as piceid, the bioavailability and bioactivity are limited. The enzymatic potential of probiotics for the transformation of piceid to resveratrol was elucidated. Cell extract from Bifidobacteria (B.) infantis, B. bifidum, Lactobacillus (L.) casei, L. plantarum, and L. acidophilus was evaluated for their effect in this bioconversion using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) as analytical tool. Cell extract of B. infantis showed the highest effect on the deglycosylation of piceid to resveratrol, already after 30 min. Cell extracts of all other tested strains showed a significant biotransformation with no further metabolization of resveratrol. The conversion of piceid to resveratrol is of importance to increase bioavailability and bioactivity as shown for anti-inflammation in this study. Cell extracts from probiotics, especially from B. infantis, may be added to piceid containing products, for achieving higher biological effects caused by the bioactivity of resveratrol or by health promoting of the probiotics. These findings open a new perspective of novel combination of cell extracts from probiotics and piceid, in health-promoting pharmaceutical and food products.

Optimized Biotransformation of Icariin into Icariside II by β-Glucosidase from Trichoderma viride Using Central Composite Design Method. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2016; 2016:5936947. [PMID: 26981534 PMCID: PMC4769847 DOI: 10.1155/2016/5936947] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2015] [Revised: 01/01/2016] [Accepted: 01/05/2016] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
A crude β-glucosidase has been produced from Trichoderma viride and used to explore a simple method to prepare icariside II from icariin. The crude enzyme has been studied by zymography method and used for hydrolysis of ICA. To achieve a high conversion rate of ICA, various factors have been studied including pH, reaction time, temperature, initial concentration of enzyme, and initial concentration of ICA through central composite design experiments. In the condition of the optimum hydrolysis parameters with pH 4.0, 41°C, 1.0 mg/mL ICA, and 9.8 U/mL crude β-glucosidase, the conversion rate of ICA reached 95.03% at 1 h. Moreover, the cytotoxicity test showed that ICA II performed inhibition effects on proliferation of A549 cell, while ICA has no cytotoxicity. It indicated that the hydrolysis transformation study of ICA is valuable for exploration of active new drugs.
