Optimisation of drying conditions for the extraction of β‐carotene,phenolic and ascorbic acid content from yellow‐fleshed sweet potato using response surface methodology

The objective of this study was to optimise drying conditions for the extractions of β‐carotene, phenolic and ascorbic content from yellow‐fleshed sweet potato using response surface methodology. A face‐centred cubic was used to investigate the effects of three independent variables namely drying temperature 55–65 °C, citric acid concentration 1–3%w/v and soaking time 1–3 min. The optimal conditions for parameters were 55–62 °C, citric acid concentration 1.08–2.19% and soaking time 1.53–2.00 min. Under the above mentioned conditions, the experimental β‐carotene content was 14.61 mg g^?1, total phenolic and ascorbic acid content were 4.0 and 17.53 mg g^?1, respectively, which were close to the predicted values. Therefore, the results showed that optimise conditions could be used to enhance the antioxidant activities of functional foods.     

In vivo effect of oat cereal β‐glucan on metabolic indexes and satiety‐related hormones in diet‐induced obesity C57‐Bl mice

This study explored the dose‐dependent effect of oat cereal β‐glucan on improving metabolic indexes of obesity mice. C57‐Bl mice were randomized to chow diet (N) group and high fat diet group and other three doses of oat β‐glucan groups (low β‐glucan, medium β‐glucan, and high β‐glucan). Energy intake, glucose, lipids, and appetite related hormones were tested. Dose‐dependent relation was observed on oat β‐glucan doses and body weight change, average energy intake, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, plasma neural peptide Y, arcuate neural peptide Y mRNA, and arcuate neural peptide Y receptor 2 mRNA level. Oat β‐glucan helped to increase plasma peptide Y‐Y and intestine peptide Y‐Y expression in obesity mice.

D-松醇复配Mn2+对HepG2细胞胰岛素抵抗的调节及其作用机制

采用胰岛素诱导HepG2细胞建立胰岛素抵抗模型(IR),研究D-松醇复配Mn2+对细胞葡萄糖消耗量和糖原合成量的影响。实时荧光全定量分析(RT-PCR)实验检测AMPK信号通路相关基因mRNA表达水平。结果表明当胰岛素浓度为1×10-3 mmol/L,作用时间为36 h时,细胞葡萄糖消耗量达到最低,产生最大的胰岛素抵抗效应。与模型对照组相比,当D-松醇浓度为100 mg/L,复配MnSO₄为10 mg/L时,葡萄糖消耗量和糖原含量均极显著升高(p<0.01)。此外,复配组AMPKα-1、AMPKα-2和GLUT4基因表达水平均显著上调(p<0.05),G6Pase基因mRNA表达水平显著下调(p<0.05)。D松醇复配Mn2+可显著促进胰岛素抵抗细胞葡萄糖的利用,增加糖原合成,其作用机制可能涉及AMPK参与的抑制糖异生等生化调控过程起到降血糖作用。     

Bioequivalence of β‐carotene and retinol

For many years it was accepted that 6 mg of β‐carotene were required to produce 1 mg of vitamin A in the form of retinol. The equivalence was based on the assumptions that two‐thirds of dietary β‐carotene are not absorbed, while in the metabolism of the remaining third 1 mol of β‐carotene is converted to 1 mol retinol. Recently, the bioequivalence was raised to 12 mg β‐carotene and 1 mg retinol. The objective of this review was to re‐examine the data that were used to support the new equivalence ratio, especially since some of these data were obtained in developing countries where infestation with gut parasites and exposure to other infections is common, yet the influence of inflammation on plasma carotenoid and retinol concentrations is frequently ignored. Bioequivalence studies examined in this review include those done in developing and developed countries, depletion and repletion studies, feeding with vegetable sources of β‐carotene or pure supplements, influence of helminths, carotenoid interactions and matrix effects and studies using stable isotopes (SI). SI studies show the bioefficacy of β‐carotene conversion to retinol is generally poor even for pure β‐carotene unless the dose is small and fed regularly until equilibration is reached. Retinol formation appears to be inversely influenced by previous vitamin A intake, the amount of material given and current vitamin A status. In spite of technical complexities, more SI studies where liver reserves of vitamin A are determined pre and post intervention are needed to evaluate β‐carotene bioefficacy of different vegetable sources.

Effect of ascorbic acid on the stability of β‐carotene and capsanthin in paprika (Capsicum annuum) powder

The effect of ascorbic acid, light, and storage on the stability of the pigments β‐carotene and capsanthin in red pepper (Capsicum annuum) powder has been elucidated by determining the amount of pigment in samples treated by various concentrations of ascorbic acid. Determination of pigment concentration has been performed after different storage times using high‐performance liquid chromatography. The dependence of the concentration of pigments on the concentration of ascorbic acid, presence of light and the storage time has been assessed by stepwise regression analysis. The concentration of pigments decreased at longer storage time and increased at higher concentration of ascorbic acid, β‐carotene being more sensitive towards storage time and concentration of ascorbic acid than capsanthin. Interaction between the effects of light and storage time, and light and concentration of ascorbic acid has been established.     

不同生理状态下人参总皂苷对HepG2细胞CYP2B6 mRNA和蛋白表达的影响

本文研究人参总皂苷在正常和炎症状态下对HepG2细胞CYP2B6 mRNA和蛋白表达的影响。采用索式提取法提取人参总皂苷,Real-Time PCR及Western Blot技术检测细胞中CYP2B6 mRNA和蛋白表达。结果显示,正常状态下人参总皂苷低(15 g/mL)、中(60 g/mL)与高(240 g/mL)剂量均显著诱导CYP2B6 mRNA表达(p0.05),中、高剂量均显著诱导CYP2B6蛋白的表达(p0.05)。使用LPS孵育细胞制造炎症模型,LPS对CYP2B6 mRNA表达无影响,但显著诱导CYP2B6蛋白的表达(p0.05)。使用人参总皂苷和LPS共同孵育细胞后,炎症状态下人参总皂苷中、高剂量对CYP2B6 mRNA的表达仍有显著诱导效果(p0.05),低和中剂量则均能显著诱导CYP2B6蛋白的表达,但高剂量则对CYP2B6的蛋白表达则呈现抑制作用(p0.05)。提示炎症状态能够改变人参总皂苷对CYP2B6 mRNA和蛋白的表达,因此联合用药时,应考虑不同生理状态下人参对代谢性药物相互作用的影响。     

Hepatoprotective effect of Cassia obtusifolia seed extract and constituents against oxidative damage induced by tert‐butyl hydroperoxide in human hepatic HepG2 cells

The aim of the present study was to investigate the hepatoprotective effects of different soluble fractions of methanolic derived Cassia obtusifolia seeds extract (COE) and its active components in tert‐butyl hydroperoxide (t‐BHP)‐induced oxidative stress in HepG2 cells. Among the tested fractions, the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction was the most active hepatoprotective fraction. From the active EtOAc fraction, six anthraquinones (alaternin, emodin, aloe emodin, 2‐hydroxyemodin 1‐methyl ether, chryso‐obtusin‐2‐O‐β‐d ‐glucoside, and questin) and one naphthopyrone glycoside (cassiaside) were isolated. The cytotoxic effect in 200 µM t‐BHP‐induced HepG2 cells was inhibited by COE and their bioactive compounds. The protective effect of COE in 200 µM t‐BHP‐induced HepG2 cells may be associated with positive regulation of glutathione (GSH) and decreased in reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation of their bioactive compounds. The increased ROS and decreased GSH levels observed in t‐BHP‐treated HepG2 cells were ameliorated by pretreatment with cassiaside, alaternin, and aloe emodin, indicating that the hepatoprotective effects of these major constituents are mediated by induction of cellular defense against oxidative stress. Overall, COE displayed a significant cytoprotective effect against oxidative stress, which may most likely be because of active compounds like cassiaside, alaternin, and aloe emodin in COE, which leads to maintenance of the normal redox status of cells.

Practical applications

The dried and roasted seeds of Cassia obtusifolia are commonly consumed as brew tea and medicinal foods in Korea. The seeds have multiple therapeutic actions related to the treatment of liver disease, dementia, diabetes, eye inflammation, photophobia and lacrimation, dysentery, headache, as well as dizziness. The present study demonstrates the hepatoprotective effect through prevention of oxidative stress, suggesting that C. obtusifolia and its constituents may have beneficial effects in preventing hepatic diseases.     

The effects of green tea (–)‐epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate on reactive oxygen species in 3T3‐L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes depend on the glutathione and 67 kDa laminin receptor pathways

Green tea (–)‐epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) is known as to regulate obesity and fat cell activity. However, little information is known about the effects of EGCG on oxidative reactive oxygen species (ROS) of fat cells. Using 3T3‐L1 preadipocytes and adipocytes, we found that EGCG increased ROS production in dose‐ and time‐dependent manners. The concentration of EGCG that increased ROS levels by 180–500% was approximately 50 μM for a range of 8–16 h of treatment. In contrast, EGCG dose‐ and time‐dependently decreased the amount of intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels. EGCG was more effective than (–)‐epicatechin, (–)‐epicatechin‐3‐gallate, and (–)‐epigallocatechin in changing ROS and GSH levels. This suggests a catechin‐specific effect. To further examine the relation of GSH to ROS as altered by EGCG, we observed that exposure of preadipocytes and adipocytes to N‐acetyl‐L ‐cysteine (a GSH precursor) blocked the EGCG‐induced increases in ROS levels and decreases in GSH levels. These observations suggest a GSH‐dependent effect of EGCG on ROS production. While EGCG was demonstrated to alter levels of ROS and GSH, its signaling was altered by an EGCG receptor (the so‐called 67 kDa laminin receptor(67LR)) antiserum, but not by normal rabbit serum. These data suggest that EGCG mediates GSH and ROS levels via the 67LR pathway.     

The role of pulsed electric fields treatment in enhancing the stability of amino acid – sugar complexes:‐ interactions between L‐Phenylalanine and β‐Cyclodextrin

In this work, the effect of pulsed electric fields (PEF) treatment on the interactions between amino acids (using L‐Phenylalanine: L‐Phe) and sugar (using β‐Cyclodextrin: β‐CD) complex was analysed by fluorescence spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and simultaneous thermal analyzer. Moreover, the molecular dynamics of β‐CD–L‐Phe inclusion complex treated by PEF was calculated by molecular modelling. The results indicated that β‐CD–L‐Phe complexes are formed by a molar ratio of 1:1, and the stability constant of such complexes increased from 147 to 614 M^?1 by PEF treatment. Thermal characterisations of β‐CD–L‐Phe complexes indicated that the PEF treatment could increase the yield of complexes. The PEF treatment resulted in an increase in the reaction enthalpy of β‐CD–L‐Phe inclusion complexes by DSC curve. These results show that PEF treatment has the potential to promote the chemical processing, especially the small organic molecules participate in inclusion or cross‐linking reaction.     

Determination of β‐Phenylethanol in Chinese Rice Wine by Reverse Phase High‐Performance Liquid Chromatography

The objective of this study was to develop a reverse phase HPLC method for determining the content of β‐phenylethanol in Chinese rice wine. The β‐phenylethanol was separated using a Synergi Hydro‐RP C18 (4.6 mm × 250 mm, 4 μm) column, CH₃OH:H₂O (50:50, v/v) as the mobile phase, and a diode array detector set at 210 nm. The results showed that when 5.00?30.00 mg/L of β‐phenylethanol was fortified, the average recoveries were between 99.5% and 99.8%, the RSD was 0.6% (n = 6), and the limit of determination was 0.05 mg/L. The calibration curve was linear over a range of 0.5 mg/L to 50 mg/L (R = 0.9999). The results of this method were almost the same as that of the gas chromatography method. The developed method is suitable to determine the β‐phenylethanol content in Chinese rice wine.     

Effects of β‐Glucans and Environmental Factors on the Viscosities of Wort and Beer

This paper reports on the influence of molecular weight and concentration of barley β‐glucans on the rheological properties of wort and beer. Environmental conditions such as pH, maltose level in wort, ethanol content of beer, shearing and shearing temperature were also examined for their effects on wort and beer viscosities. In the range of 50–1000 mg/L, β‐glucans increased solution viscosity linearly with both molecular weights (MW) of 31, 137, 250, 327, and 443 kDa and concentration. The influence of MW on the intrinsic viscosity of β‐glucans followed the Mark‐Houwink relationship. Shearing wort and beer at approximately 13,000 s^?1for 35 s was found to increase the wort viscosity but reduce beer viscosity. Shearing wort at 20°C influenced β‐glucan viscosity more than shearing at 48°C and 76°C whereas the shearing temperature (0, 5 and 10°C) did not effect the viscosity of beer. At lower pHs, shearing was found to reduce the viscosity caused by β‐glucans in wort but had no effect in beer. Higher concentrations of maltose in wort and ethanol in beer also increased the viscosity of β‐glucan polymers. It was found that β‐glucans had higher intrinsic viscosities in beer than in wort (5°C), and lower critical overlap concentrations (C^*) in beer than in wort.     

Bioactive dietary polyphenols inhibit heme iron absorption in a dose-dependent manner in human intestinal Caco-2 cells

Abstract: Although heme iron is an important form of dietary iron, its intestinal absorption mechanism remains elusive. Our previous study revealed that (‐)‐epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate (EGCG) and grape seed extract (GSE) markedly inhibited intestinal heme iron absorption by reducing the basolateral iron export in Caco‐2 cells. The aim of this study was to examine whether small amounts of EGCG, GSE, and green tea extract (GT) could inhibit heme iron absorption, and to test whether the inhibitory action of polyphenols could be offset by ascorbic acid. A heme‐⁵⁵Fe absorption study was conducted by adding various concentrations of EGCG, GSE, and GT to Caco‐2 cells in the absence and presence of ascorbic acid. Polyphenolic compounds significantly inhibited heme‐⁵⁵Fe absorption in a dose‐dependent manner. The addition of ascorbic acid did not modulate the inhibitory effect of dietary polyphenols on heme iron absorption when the cells were treated with polyphenols at a concentration of 46 mg/L. However, ascorbic acid was able to offset or reverse the inhibitory effects of polyphenolic compounds when lower concentrations of polyphenols were added (≤ 4.6 mg/L). Ascorbic acid modulated the heme iron absorption without changing the apical heme uptake, the expression of the proteins involved in heme metabolism and basolateral iron transport, and heme oxygenase activity, indicating that ascorbic acid may enhance heme iron absorption by modulating the intracellular distribution of ⁵⁵Fe. These results imply that the regular consumption of dietary ascorbic acid can easily counteract the inhibitory effects of low concentrations of dietary polyphenols on heme iron absorption but cannot counteract the inhibitory actions of high concentrations of polyphenols. Practical Application: Bioactive dietary polyphenols inhibit heme iron absorption in a dose‐dependent manner. The small amounts of polyphenolic compounds present in foods are capable of reducing heme iron transport across the intestinal enterocyte. However, the inhibitory effects of dietary polyphenolic compounds on heme iron absorption can be offset by ascorbic acid and can possibly be avoided by decreasing the consumption of polyphenols while simultaneously taking ascorbic acid.     

Physicochemical,Microstructural, and Antibacterial Properties of β‐Chitosan and Kudzu Starch Composite Films

Abstract: This study investigated physicochemical, microstructural, and antibacterial properties of β‐chitosan–kudzu starch composite films with addition of 0%, 20%, 60%, or 100% kudzu starch (w starch/w chitosan) in 1% chitosan solution. Molecular interactions between chitosan and kudzu starch and the crystal structure of the films were also determined. Adding 60% kudzu starch reduced water vapor permeability and solubility of pure β‐chitosan film by about 15% and 20%, respectively, whereas mechanical strength and flexibility of the film were increased about 50% and 25%, respectively. Micrograph showed that β‐chitosan film was totally amorphous, and the composite films generally became rougher with more starch added. Fourier transform infrared and X‐ray diffraction spectra showed that the 2 film‐forming components were compatible with each other. Pure β‐chitosan film resulted in 9.5 and 11.5 log CFU/mL reduction in Escherichia coli and Listeria innocua based on plate count method, respectively. Addition of kudzu starch reduced the antibacterial activity of film, but still achieved 8.3 and 10.3 log CFU/mL reduction in E. coli and L. innocua, respectively when kudzu starch to chitosan weight ratio was 1:1. Reduced antibacterial activity might attribute to the interaction of amino groups in β‐chitosan with the hydroxyl groups in kudzu starch. This study demonstrated that kudzu starch effectively improved water barrier of β‐chitosan film, and the composite films retained strong antibacterial ability. Practical Application: One percent of β‐chitosan containing 60% kudzu starch (w/w chitosan) composite films possessed better mechanical and water barrier properties than pure β‐chitosan films, and showed strong antibacterial activity against both Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria. The films may be used as wraps or coatings to prolong the shelf life of different foods or other similar applications.     

Effects of flavonoids on CYP1 expression in RL95-2 endometrial carcinoma cells

RL95-2 endometrial cancer cells were used to study cytochrome P450-mediated chemopreventative mechanisms of four flavonoids found in foods. To investigate enzymatic CYP1 inhibition, intact cells were induced with benzo(a)pyrene or 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin. Quercetin, kaempferol and myricetin inhibited CYP1 activity dose-dependently with IC₅₀s ranging from 2.2 to 4 μM; while amentoflavone was inactive. Further experiments were designed to determine if flavonoids also interacted with the AhR or caused a decrease in CYP1 protein or mRNA expression. CYP1A1 protein expression was inhibited in cells co-treated with TCDD and quercetin, kaempferol or myricetin compared with TCDD alone, but amentoflavone was ineffective. Relatively higher (∼7-fold) basal levels of CYP1B1 protein were not significantly affected by flavonoid treatments. In general, at the message level significant inhibition of induced CYP1A1 or CYP1B1 was not detected following flavonoid cotreatment. Despite the common inhibitory effects of quercetin, kaempferol, and myricetin on induced CYP1A1-dependent activity and protein expression, the mechanisms of CYP1 inhibition in this cell line are complex and dependent on the CYP gene, AhR inducer and the flavonoid.     

Lactobacillus plantarum AR501 Alleviates the Oxidative Stress of D‐Galactose‐Induced Aging Mice Liver by Upregulation of Nrf2‐Mediated Antioxidant Enzyme Expression

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been used as ingredients of functional foods to promote health and prevent diseases because of their beneficial effects. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidative effects of LAB on the hepatotoxicity in D‐galactose‐induced aging mice. LAB were isolated from the traditional Chinese fermented foods and screened by the tolerance of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Male ICR (Institute of Cancer Research) mice were subcutaneously injected with D‐galactose for 5 weeks and then gastric gavage with LAB for 6 weeks. The results showed that Lactobacillus plantarum AR113 and AR501, and Pediococcu pentosaceus AR243 could tolerate up to 1.5 mM H₂O₂ in vitro, and they could live through simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) to colonizing the GIT of host. In vivo, oral administration of L. plantarum AR113 and AR501 improved the antioxidant status of D‐galactose‐induced oxidative stress mice such as alleviated liver damages and reduced abnormal activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase to normal levels. In addition, L. plantarum AR501 markedly elevated the gene expression of nuclear factor erythroid‐2‐related factor 2 and upregulated the expressions of several antioxidant genes such as glutathione reductase, glutathione S‐transferase, glutamate‐cysteine ligase catalytic subunit, glutamate‐cysteine ligase modifier subunit, and NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 in the liver of an aging mice. Therefore, L. plantarum AR501 could be a good candidate for producing antiaging functional foods.

Consumption of barley β‐glucan ameliorates fatty liver and insulin resistance in mice fed a high‐fat diet

Consumption of a diet high in barley β‐glucan (BG) has been shown to prevent insulin resistance. To investigate the mechanism for the effects of barley BG, three groups of male 7‐wk‐old C57BL/6J mice were fed high‐fat diets containing 0, 2, or 4% of barley BG for 12 wk. The 2% BG and 4% BG groups had significantly lower body weights compared with the 0% BG group. The 4% BG group demonstrated improved glucose tolerance and lower levels of insulin‐resistance index and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide. Consumption of the BG diet decreased hepatic lipid content. Mice on the BG diet also demonstrated decreased fatty acid synthase and increased cholesterol 7α‐hydroxylase gene expression levels. The BG diet promoted hepatic insulin signaling by decreasing serine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 and activating Akt, and it decreased mRNA levels of glucose‐6‐phosphatase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. In summary, consumption of BG reduced weight gain, decreased hepatic lipid accumulation, and improved insulin sensitivity in mice fed a high‐fat diet. Insulin signaling enhanced due to the expression changes of glucose and lipid metabolism genes by BG consumption. Consumption of barley BG could be an effective strategy for preventing obesity, insulin resistance, and the metabolic syndrome.     

山茶油对游离脂肪酸诱导的HepG2细胞脂质代谢的影响

目的:探究山茶油对游离脂肪酸诱导的HepG2细胞脂质代谢的影响。方法:首先,利用CCK8法测定不同浓度山茶油对HepG2细胞活性的影响以选定适宜浓度进行后续实验。其次,采用不同浓度山茶油对HepG2细胞进行24 h干预,再使用0.5 mmol/L游离脂肪酸处理24 h诱导建立脂肪肝细胞模型。然后,通过油红O染色法判断各组间的脂滴生成情况,并参照相关试剂盒测定各干预下细胞内脂质水平的变化情况。最后,通过qRT-PCR法测定细胞内脂质代谢相关基因的表达,以探讨山茶油调节脂质代谢的作用及其可能的机制。结果:与正常对照组相比,造模干预组细胞内的甘油三酯(TG)和低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)含量显著升高(P<0.05),高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)含量显著降低(P<0.05);与造模干预组相比,茶油预处理显著逆转了游离脂肪酸诱导细胞内TG、HDL-C和LDL-C含量的变化(P<0.05)。qRT-PCR结果表明,与造模干预组相比,山茶油预处理显著降低了游离脂肪酸诱导的HepG2细胞内脂肪酸转运酶(CD36)、固醇调节元件结合蛋白-1c(SREBP-1c)、脂肪酸合成酶(...
