[PMID: 37760037 PMCID: PMC10525198 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12091734] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction is an interesting therapeutic target to help reduce cancer deaths, and the use of bioactive compounds has emerged as a novel and safe approach to solve this problem. Here, we discuss the information available related to phlorotannins, a type of polyphenol present in brown seaweeds that reportedly functions as antioxidants/pro-oxidants and anti-inflammatory and anti-tumorigenic agents. Specifically, available evidence indicates that dieckol and phloroglucinol promote mitochondrial membrane depolarization and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis. Phlorotannins also reduce pro-tumorigenic, -inflammatory, and -angiogenic signaling mechanisms involving RAS/MAPK/ERK, PI3K/Akt/mTOR, NF-κB, and VEGF. In doing so, they inhibit pathways that favor cancer development and progression. Unfortunately, these compounds are rather labile and, therefore, this review also summarizes approaches permitting the encapsulation of bioactive compounds, like phlorotannins, and their subsequent oral administration as novel and non-invasive therapeutic alternatives for cancer treatment.

[PMID: 37107414 PMCID: PMC10137765 DOI: 10.3390/foods12081619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 04/02/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The effects of four domestic cooking methods, including blanching, steaming, boiling, and baking treatments, on processing properties, bioactive compound, pigments, flavor components, and tissue structure of Laminaria japonica were investigated. The results showed that the color and structure of kelp changed most obviously after baking; steaming was most beneficial in reducing the color change of the kelp (ΔE < 1), while boiling was most effective in maintaining the texture of the kelp (its hardness and chewiness were close to that of raw kelp); eight volatile compounds were detected in raw kelp, four and six compounds were detected in blanched and boiled kelp, while eleven and thirty kinds of compounds were detected in steamed and baked kelp, respectively. In addition, the contents of phloroglucinol and fucoxanthin in kelp after the four processing methods were significantly reduced (p < 0.05). However, of all the methods, steaming and boiling were the best at preserving these two bioactive substances (phloroglucinol and fucoxanthin) in kelp. Therefore, steaming and boiling seemed more appropriate to maintain the original quality of the kelp. Generally, to improve the sensory characteristics of each meal of Laminaria japonica and to maximize the retention of active nutrients, several different processing methods are provided according to the respective effects.

Abstract
Phlorotannins are a family of proven therapeutic agents. However, low stability disturbs their full bioactivity expression in the human body. Hence, this study focused on preserving their vitality through encapsulation. Phlorotannins isolated from Sargassum ilicifolium were encapsulated in the chitosan-tripolyphosphate carrier. Their storage stability, processing stability, and bioactivity retention upon in vitro digestion were determined. Results revealed the highest total phlorotannin content (TPC) of 854.38 ± 48 mg Phloroglucinol Equivalence/g in the semi-purified ethyl acetate fraction while the NMR spectrum and the LCMS profile revealed the isolation of phlorotannins in it. Storage at -18℃ and 4℃ temperatures preserved thrice both the encapsulated and non-encapsulated phlorotannins than ambient conditions. Encapsulated compound reported 56.4% of TPC retention at 175 ℃ processing temperature. Fermented fraction of encapsulated form showed significantly higher (p < 0.05) antioxidant activities and TPC (0.23 ± 0.03 mg/mL) suggesting the potential for targeted delivery of phlorotannins to their absorption sites through encapsulation.

Abstract
Since the middle of the last century, marine organisms have been identified as producers of chemically and biologically diverse secondary metabolites which have exerted various biological activities including anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifouling and others. This review primarily focuses on the marine phenolic compounds and their derivatives with potent anticancer activity, isolated and/or modified in the last decade. Reports on the elucidation of their structures as well as biosynthetic studies and total synthesis are also covered. Presented phenolic compounds inhibited cancer cells proliferation or migration, at sub-micromolar or nanomolar concentrations (lamellarins D (37), M (38), K (39), aspergiolide B (41), fradimycin B (62), makulavamine J (66), mayamycin (69), N-acetyl-N-demethylmayamycin (70) or norhierridin B (75)). In addition, they exhibited anticancer properties by a diverse biological mechanism including induction of apoptosis or inhibition of cell migration and invasive potential. Finally, phlorotannins 1–7 and bromophenols 12–29 represent the most researched phenolic compounds, of which the former are recognized as protective agents against UVB or gamma radiation-induced skin damages. Finally, phenolic metabolites were assorted into six main classes: phlorotannins, bromophenols, flavonoids, coumarins, terpenophenolics, quinones and hydroquinones. The derivatives that could not be attributed to any of the above-mentioned classes were grouped in a separate class named miscellaneous compounds.

Abstract
Advanced carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) based functional films were fabricated by involving some amounts of gliadin/phlorotannin nanoparticles (GPNPs) using a solution casting method. GPNPs were synthesized by an antisolvent precipitation approach, and they presented a spherical morphology with a mean diameter of 145.30 ± 2.06 nm. The effect of GPNPs concentration on the structural, physical, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of CMCS-GPNPs (C-G) functional films was evaluated. It was found that the added GPNPs were homogeneously distributed over the whole CMCS matrix, allowing to reduce the free volume of the nanocomposite matrix and subsequently improve the physical properties of the final film (evidenced by mechanical and water barrier properties). FT-IR spectra indicated the intermolecular interactions, such as hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interaction, within the matrix of the nanocomposite films were increased. Impressively, the anti-ultraviolet properties, antioxidant activity and antimicrobial behaviors of the as-formed C-G functional films were greatly enhanced compared to the pure CMCS film. All these results suggested that our as-prepared C-G nanocomposite films could be a promising food packaging material.

Abstract
Antioxidants from plant extracts are often used as additives in skincare products to prevent skin problems induced by environmental pollutants. Artocarpus communis methanol extract (ACM) has many biological effects, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, and photoprotective effects; however, the poor water solubility of raw ACM has limited its applications in medicine and cosmetics. Topical antioxidant nanoparticles are one of the drug-delivery systems for overcoming the poor water solubility of antioxidants for increasing their skin penetration. The present study demonstrated that ACM-loaded hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 nanoparticles (AHP) were successfully prepared and could effectively increase the skin penetration of ACM through changing the physicochemical characteristics of raw ACM, including reducing the particle size, increasing the surface area, and inducing amorphous transformation. Our results also revealed that AHP had significantly better antioxidant activity than raw ACM for preventing photocytotoxicity because the AHP formulation increased the cellular uptake of the ACM in UVB-irradiated HaCaT keratinocytes. In conclusion, our results suggest that AHP may be used as a good topical antioxidant nanoparticle for delivering ACM into deep layers of the skin for preventing UVB-induced skin problems.
