Title: Oral Synergism of Egg-White-Derived Peptides (EWDP) and Curcumin for Colitis Mitigation via Polysaccharide/Cyclodextrin Metal-Organic Framework-Based Assemblies. Author: Zhang H, Zhang T, Huang X, Liu C, Ma S, Li S, Li Y, Liu J, Du Z, Yang M. Journal: J Agric Food Chem; 2024 May 15; 72(19):11140-11152. PubMed ID: 38703140. Abstract: Recently, oral deliverable strategies of multiple nutraceuticals for ulcerative colitis (UC) mitigation have attracted increasing attention. This study aimed to fabricate facile oral assemblies loaded with egg-white-derived peptides (EWDP) and curcumin based on carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and an γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic framework (MOF). Herein, outer CMCS could coassemble with EWDP (both nutraceuticals and building blocks) into cobweb-like fibrils to promote bridging with inner MOF via coordinative noncovalent interactions (hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic interaction, and electrostatic interaction). Compared with conventional γ-cyclodextrin/MOF-based composites, the above coassembly could also endow the biocompatible assemblies with superior nanoscale colloidal properties, processing applicability (curcumin storage stability, bioaccessibility, and aqueous solubility), and bioactivity. Moreover, the oral synergism of EWDP and curcumin (initially nonsynergistic) for UC mitigation was achieved by alleviating inflammatory damage and gut microbiota imbalance. Overall, the novel assemblies could be a promising amplifier and platform to facilitate oral formulations of various nutraceuticals for food processing and UC relief.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
