Title: Co-encapsulation of Egg-White-Derived Peptides (EWDP) and Curcumin within the Polysaccharide-Based Amphiphilic Nanoparticles for Promising Oral Bioavailability Enhancement: Role of EWDP. Author: Yang M, Liu J, Li Y, Yang Q, Liu C, Liu X, Zhang B, Zhang H, Zhang T, Du Z. Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2022 Apr 27; 70(16):5126-5136. PubMed ID: 35412315. Abstract: The comprehensive utilization of food-derived nutraceuticals with different polarities has been extremely restricted by their poor bioavailability and coexistence in a single system. This study aimed to fabricate a self-assembly of amphiphilic nanoparticles (NPs) for the hydrophilic EWDP and hydrophobic curcumin based on the carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) shell and γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) core. Notably, EWDP could cooperate with CMCS to yield superior colloidal properties with an excellent curcumin aqueous solubility and co-encapsulation capacity (>10%) for the NPs (pH 2.0-7.0). This phenomenon was mainly ascribed to the additional hydrogen-bonding network and hydrophobic interaction introduced by EWDP. Besides, the overall antioxidant activity, bioaccessibility, gastrointestinal stability, and Caco-2 cell absorption properties were significantly improved in the presence of EWDP (>20% increase). Therefore, EWDP could function as both a potential affinity agent and a nutrition enhancer to expand the co-delivery applications for diverse nutraceuticals with promising oral bioavailability enhancement in food and pharmaceutical areas.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
