Micro RNA-175 Targets Claudin-1 to Inhibit Madin-Darby Canine Kidney Cell Adhesion.

Background: The Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell line constitutes a key component of influenza vaccine production, but its dependence on adherent growth limits cell culture density and hinders vaccine yield. There is evidence that the use of gene editing techniques to inhibit cell adhesion and establish an easily suspended cell line can improve vaccine yield; however, the mechanisms underlying MDCK cell adhesion are unclear. Methods: In this study, we used transcriptomics to analyse differentially expressed mRNAs and miRNAs in adherent and suspension cultures of MDCK cells. Results: We found that claudin-1 (CLDN1) expression was downregulated in the suspension MDCK cells and that CLDN1 promotes MDCK cell-extracellular matrix adhesion. Additionally, microRNA (miR)-175 expression was upregulated in the suspension MDCK cells. Importantly, we demonstrated that miR-175 inhibits MDCK cell adhesion by targeting the CLDN1 3'-untranslated region (UTR). These findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the regulatory mechanisms modulating cell adhesion and provide a basis for establishing suspension-adapted, genetically engineered cell lines. Our work could also facilitate the identification of targets for tumour therapy.

Incorporation of carbon dots into polyvinyl alcohol/corn starch based film and its application on shiitake mushroom preservation.

Developing eco-friendly edible packaging films with multi-functional properties is highly required. This study involved synthesizing carbon dots (CDs) from dragon fruit, then incorporating them into a composite film based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/corn starch (CS) to create a functional package to extend the shelf life of fresh shiitake mushrooms. Functional composite films with varying levels of CDs were formulated. The films' characteristics of morphology, mechanical properties, antioxidant properties, etc. were then determined, as well as their preservation effect on the fresh shiitake mushrooms. The results showed that the PVA/CS/CDs composite film showed excellent mechanical property, Ultraviolet (UV) barrier capability, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Specifically, addition of 8 mg/mL CDs in the composite films reduced weight loss of shiitake mushrooms by 30.74 %, decreased the decline in soluble solids content by 10.48 %, and halved the reduction in total sugar content after a 7-day storage period compared to films without added CDs. Furthermore, the films effectively lowered the respiratory intensity and browning of the mushrooms. This research demonstrates that CDs can serve as an effective component for the development of eco-friendly edible packaging films, as well as for their application in food preservation.

Production and characterization of anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic peptides from fermented sheep milk with anti-inflammatory activity: in vitro and molecular docking studies.

BACKGROUND: The present study aimed to evaluate the anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic activities from biologically active peptides produced by fermented sheep milk with Lacticaseibacillus paracasei M11 (MG027695), as well as to purify and characterize the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory and anti-diabetic peptides produced from fermented sheep milk. RESULTS: After 48 h of fermentation at 37 °C, sheep milk demonstrated significant changes in anti-diabetic effects and ACE-I effects, with inhibition percentages observed for ACE inhibition (76.32%), α-amylase (70.13%), α-glucosidase (70.11%) and lipase inhibition (68.22%). The highest level of peptides (9.77 mg mL-1) was produced by optimizing the growth conditions, which included an inoculation rate of 2.5% and a 48 h of incubation period. The comparison of molecular weight distributions among protein fractions was conducted through sodium dodecyl-sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis, whereas spots were separated using 2D gel electrophoresis according to both the molecular weight and pH. Peptide characterization with ultra-filtration membranes at 3 and 10 kDa allowed the study to assess molecular weight-based separation. Nitric oxide generated by lipopolysaccharide and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines in RAW 264.7 immune cells were both inhibited by sheep milk fermented with M11. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was employed to assess changes in functional groups after fermentation, providing insights into the structural changes occurring during fermentation. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrates that fermentation with L. paracasei (M11) led to significant changes in fermented sheep milk, enhancing its bioactive properties, notably in terms of ACE inhibition and anti-diabetic activities, and the generation of peptides with bioactive properties has potential health benefits. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Peptidomics-based identification of antihypertensive and antidiabetic peptides from sheep milk fermented using Limosilactobacillus fermentum KGL4 MTCC 25515 with anti-inflammatory activity: in silico, in vitro, and molecular docking studies.

This study investigated the synthesis of bioactive peptides from sheep milk through fermentation with Limosilactobacillus fermentum KGL4 MTCC 25515 strain and assessed lipase inhibition, ACE inhibition, α-glucosidase inhibition, and α-amylase inhibition activities during the fermentation process. The study observed the highest activities, reaching 74.82%, 70.02%, 72.19%, and 67.08% (lipase inhibition, ACE inhibition, α-glucosidase inhibition, and α-amylase inhibition) after 48 h at 37°C, respectively. Growth optimization experiments revealed that a 2.5% inoculation rate after 48 h of fermentation time resulted in the highest proteolytic activity at 9.88 mg/mL. Additionally, fractions with less than 3 kDa of molecular weight exhibited superior ACE-inhibition and anti-diabetic activities compared to other fractions. Fermentation of sheep milk with KGL4 led to a significant reduction in the excessive production of NO, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1ß produced in RAW 267.4 cells upon treatment with LPS. Peptides were purified utilizing SDS-PAGE and electrophoresis on 2D gels, identifying a maximum number of proteins bands ranging 10-70 kDa. Peptide sequences were cross-referenced with AHTPDB and BIOPEP databases, confirming potential antihypertensive and antidiabetic properties. Notably, the peptide (GPFPILV) exhibited the highest HPEPDOCK score against both α-amylase and ACE.

Quality Changes and Fungal Microbiota Dynamics in Stored Jujube Fruits: Insights from High-Throughput Sequencing for Food Preservation.

Postharvest rot is an urgent problem affecting the storage of winter jujube. Therefore, the development of new technologies for efficient and safe preservation is very important. This study aimed to elucidate the fungal microbiota found on the epidermis of jujube during the storage period using high-throughput sequencing, as well as to monitor the changes in quality indexes throughout this period. Through internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequencing, we identified two phyla (Basidiomycota and Ascomycota) and six genera (Cryptococcus, Bulleromyces, Sporidiobolus, Alternaria, Pseudozyma, and Sporobolomyces), which potentially contribute to the spoilage and deterioration of jujube, referred to as "core fungal taxa". A high correlation was further found between preservation indices (including decay rate, firmness, and total soluble solids) and the growth of multiple core fungi over time. These findings will provide insights and a theoretical basis for further research on preservation techniques related to biological control during date fruit storage.

Microencapsulation of fish oil by spray drying, spray freeze-drying, freeze-drying, and microwave freeze-drying: Microcapsule characterization and storage stability.

The objective of this paper was to evaluate the effect of spray drying (SD), spray freeze-drying (SFD), freeze-drying (FD), and microwave freeze-drying (MFD) on the characteristics of fish oil (FO) microcapsules. The physicochemical properties, morphology, fatty acid composition, and stability of the microcapsules were analyzed. The encapsulation efficiencies of microcapsules dried by SD, SFD, FD, and MFD were 86.98%, 77.79%, 63.29%, and 57.89%, respectively. SD microcapsules exhibited superior properties in terms of effective loading capacity, color, and flowability. Conversely, SFD microcapsules demonstrated improved solubility. Microencapsulation positively affected the thermal stability of FO, but the content of unsaturated fatty acids decreased. The findings from the storage experiment indicated that the oxidative stability of SD fish oil microcapsules was marginally lower compared to microcapsules produced through three alternative drying techniques, all of which were based on the FD concept. The comparison of various drying methods and their effects on the quality of FO microcapsules offers valuable insights that can serve as a foundation for the industrial production of high-quality microcapsules.

Identification of flavor peptides based on virtual screening and molecular docking from Hypsizygus marmoreuss.

Hypsizygus marmoreuss is an under-explored source of flavor peptides that can enhance the flavor of NaCl or MSG, allowing products to be reformulated in line with reduction policies. This study utilized advanced techniques, including UPLC-Q-TOF MS/MS and molecular docking, to identify H. marmoreuss peptides. Sensory evaluations revealed 10 peptides with pronounced umami flavors and seven with dominantly salty tastes. VLPVPQK scored highest for umami intensity (5.2), and EGNPAHQK for salty intensity (6.2). Further investigation influenced by 0.35 % MSG or 0.35 % NaCl exposed peptides with elevated umami and salty thresholds. LDSPATPEK, VVEGEPSLK, and QKLPEKPER had umami-enhancing thresholds of 0.18, 0.18, and 0.35 mM, while LDSPATPEK and VVEGEPSLK had similar thresholds for salt (0.09 mM). Molecular docking revealed that taste receptor proteins interacted with umami peptides through hydrogen, carbon-hydrogen, alkyl, and van der Waals forces. Specific amino acids in the umami receptor T1R1 had roles in bonding with umami peptides through hydrogen and carbon-hydrogen interactions. In conclusion, molecular docking proved to be an effective and efficient method for flavor peptide screening. Further, this study demonstrated that flavor peptides from H. marmoreuss had the capacity to enhance NaCl and MSG flavours and might be useful tools for reformulation, reducing salt and MSG contents.

Tailoring the physicochemical properties of starch: impact of integrated ultrasonic and ethanol pretreatment on the oil uptake of infrared fried ginkgo seeds.

BACKGROUND: The structural changes of starch would have a more crucial impact on oil absorption and quality changes in starch-rich fruits and vegetables during frying process with enhanced heat transfer (such as infrared frying). In the present study, the influence of integrated ultrasonic and ethanol (US + ethanol) pretreatment on oil uptake in infrared fried (IF) ginkgo seeds was evaluated regarding modifications in the physicochemical properties of starch. The pretreatment was performed with ultrasonic (40 kHz, 300 W) and ethanol osmotic (95%, v/v) treatment individually or integrated for 40 min. RESULTS: The mass transfer in the pretreatment was facilitated by combined ultrasound and ethanol. The swelling power, solubility, and gelatinization degree of starch was significantly increased. Low-frequency-NMR curves and images revealed that the bound water fraction in ginkgo seeds was increased and the water distribution was homogenized. The results of Fourier transform-infrared spectrum and differential scanning calorimeter revealed that the crystalline regions of starch were reduced and the thermal enthalpy was decreased after US + ethanol pretreatment. The total, surface and structural oil content in IF ginkgo seeds with US + ethanol pretreatment was reduced by 29.10%, 34.52% and 29.73%, respectively. The US + ethanol pretreatment led to a thinner crust layer with increased porosity and smaller-sized pores in the IF ginkgo seeds as observed by stereo microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. CONCLUSION: The changes in structural and physicochemical properties of starch by combined ultrasound and ethanol affect the crust ratio and pore characteristics in fried high-starch fruits and vegetables, thereby reducing oil absorption. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

The effects of resonance acoustic mixing modulation on the structural and emulsifying properties of pea protein isolate.

The effects of resonant acoustic mixing (RAM) with different treatment times (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 min) on the structural and emulsifying properties of pea protein isolate (PPI) were investigated for the first time. Increasing the RAM treatment time from 0 to 20 min decreased the α-helix/ß-sheet ratio and particle size of the PPI samples by 37.84 % and 46.44 %, respectively, accompanied by an increase in solubility from 54.79 % to 71.80 % (P < 0.05). Consequently, the emulsifying activity index of PPI (from 10.45 m2/g to 14.2 m2/g) and the physical stability of RAM-PPI emulsions were effectively enhanced, which was confirmed by the small and uniformly distributed oil droplets in the micrographs of the emulsions. However, excessive RAM treatment (30 min) diminished the effectiveness of the aforementioned improvements. Therefore, obviously enhanced solubility and emulsifying properties of PPI can be attained through proper RAM treatment (15-20 min).

Advances in the understanding of circRNAs that influence viral replication in host cells.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are non-coding RNAs discovered in recent years, which are produced by back-splicing involving the 3' and 5' ends of RNA molecules. There is increasing evidence that circRNAs have important roles in cancer, neurological diseases, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and other diseases. In addition, host circRNAs and virus-encoded circRNAs participate in the body's immune response, with antiviral roles. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which host and viral circRNAs interact during the host immune response. Comprehensive investigations have revealed that host circRNAs function as miRNA sponges in a particular manner, primarily by inhibiting viral replication. Viral circRNAs have more diverse functions, which generally involve promoting viral replication. In addition, in contrast to circRNAs from RNA viruses, circRNAs from DNA viruses can influence host cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis, along with their effects on viral replication. In summary, circRNAs have potential as diagnostic and therapeutic targets, offering a foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of viral diseases.

The synergistic effect of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine on the 3D printability of yellow flesh peach gels: The importance of material elasticity in the printing process.

This study investigated the effect of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine on the physical, chemical and textural properties of yellow flesh peaches and their suitability for 3D printing. The addition of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine was found to improve the apparent viscosity, elasticity, gel strength, and Young's modulus of the yellow flesh peach with κ-carrageenan and l-lysine gels (PCLG) and increase the minimum piston pressure required for 3D printing, thereby improving the printing performance. Optimum levels of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine (0.1 mmol/mL and 3.42 × 10-2 mmol/mL, respectively) were found to enhance mechanical strength, viscoelasticity and print fidelity. On the other hand, when the addition of κ-carrageenan is 0.1 mmol/mL, the addition of l-lysine causes an increase in the G0 value and a decrease in the η0 value of the PCLG according to Burger's model, indicating a transition from viscosity to elasticity and an increase in maximum extrusion force, while the apparent viscosity does not change significantly. The results of 3D printing showed that when the addition of κ-carrageenan and l-lysine reached 0.1 mmol/mL and 6.84 × 10-2 mmol/mL, respectively, the PCLG could not be smoothly extruded, indicating that elasticity also plays an important role during the extrusion process of the mixed gel.

CONCLUSION: The simulation method selected in this article, based on gas-solid two-phase flow dynamics, is feasible for green soybean infrared-assisted spouted bed drying process. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Monitoring of Volatile Compounds of Ready-to-Eat Kiwifruit Using GC-IMS.

Ready-to-eat kiwifruit has gained significant market value in recent years due to its convenience and the increasing consumer demand for healthy ready-to-eat snacks. The volatile compound content (VOC) in ready-to-eat kiwifruit is a crucial factor determining its flavor and aroma. VOC is an important characteristic that positively affects the overall evaluation of ready-to-eat kiwifruit. In this study, we utilized gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) to investigate changes in the composition of VOCs in ready-to-eat kiwifruit during different storage periods (every 12 h). Our results revealed the presence of 55 VOCs in ready-to-eat kiwifruit, with alcohols, esters, and ketones being the dominant compounds responsible for the aromatic flavor. Among these compounds, methyl caproate, ethyl butyrate, and ethyl propionate provided specific fruit flavors to ready-to-eat kiwifruit, whereas esters played a secondary role. Furthermore, varying trends were observed for different compound types as the storage period increased: alcohols exhibited a decreasing trend, whereas ester products and some sulfur-containing compounds showed an increase. Additionally, fingerprint profiles of volatile compounds were established for each storage period, enabling the identification of characteristic substances. This comprehensive analysis of volatile flavor substances during the ripening of ready-to-eat kiwifruit will greatly contribute to enhancing its sensory quality, consumer appeal, and overall marketability.

UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS-Based Untargeted Lipidomic Analysis of Lipid Molecular Species in Spinal Cords from Different Domesticated Animals.

Lipids are crucial components for the maintenance oof normal structure and function in the nervous system. Elucidating the diversity of lipids in spinal cords may contribute to our understanding of neurodevelopment. This study comprehensively analyzed the fatty acid (FA) compositions and lipidomes of the spinal cords of eight domesticated animal species: pig, cattle, yak, goat, horse, donkey, camel, and sika deer. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed that saturated fatty acids (SFAs) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) were the primary FAs in the spinal cords of these domesticated animals, accounting for 72.54-94.23% of total FAs. Notably, oleic acid, stearic acid and palmitic acid emerged as the most abundant FA species. Moreover, untargeted lipidomics by UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS demonstrated that five lipid classes, including glycerophospholipids (GPs), sphingolipids (SPs), glycerolipids (GLs), FAs and saccharolipids (SLs), were identified in the investigated spinal cords, with phosphatidylcholine (PC) being the most abundant among all identified lipid classes. Furthermore, canonical correlation analysis showed that PC, PE, TAG, HexCer-NS and SM were significantly associated with genome sequence data. These informative data provide insight into the structure and function of mammalian nervous tissues and represent a novel contribution to lipidomics.

Transcriptional Analysis of lncRNA and Target Genes Induced by Influenza A Virus Infection in MDCK Cells.

BACKGROUND: The MDCK cell line is the primary cell line used for influenza vaccine production. Using genetic engineering technology to change the expression and activity of genes that regulate virus proliferation to obtain high-yield vaccine cell lines has attracted increasing attention. A comprehensive understanding of the key genes, targets, and molecular mechanisms of viral regulation in cells is critical to achieving this goal, yet the post-transcriptional regulation mechanism involved in virus proliferation-particularly the effect of lncRNA on influenza virus proliferation-is still poorly understood. Therefore, this study used high-throughput RNA-seq technology to identify H1N1 infection-induced lncRNA and mRNA expression changes in MDCK cells and explore the regulatory relationship between these crucial lncRNAs and their target genes. RESULTS: In response to H1N1 infection in MDCK cells 16 h post-infection (hpi) relative to uninfected controls, we used multiple gene function annotation databases and initially identified 31,501 significantly differentially expressed (DE) genes and 39,920 DE lncRNAs (|log2FC| > 1, p < 0.05). Among these, 102 lncRNAs and 577 mRNAs exhibited predicted correlations with viral response mechanisms. Based on the magnitude of significant expression differences, related research, and RT-qPCR expression validation at the transcriptional level, we further focused on 18 DE mRNAs and 32 DE lncRNAs. Among these, the differential expression of the genes RSAD2, CLDN1, HCLS1, and IFIT5 in response to influenza virus infection was further verified at the protein level using Western blot technology, which showed results consistent with the RNA-seq and RT-qPCR findings. We then developed a potential molecular regulatory network between these four genes and their six predicted lncRNAs. CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study will contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanism of host cell non-coding RNA-mediated regulation of influenza virus replication. These results may also identify methods for screening target genes in the development of genetically engineered cell lines capable of high-yield artificial vaccine production.

Fabrication and 3D printing of Pickering emulsion gel based on Hypsizygus marmoreus by-products protein.

Pickering emulsion gel (PEG) stabilized by the protein extracted from the by-product of Hypsizygus marmoreus, combining with xanthan gum (XG), was formulated as 3D printing ink. Hydrogen bonds are formed in XG/protein hybrid particles. Afterwards, PEG was developed. Results indicated that it has shear-thinning properties. The apparent viscosity, yield stress, Elastic modulus (G') and gel strength increased with the increased XG addition, while the size of emulsion decreased. XG incorporation improved the 3D printing performance with desired self-supporting capability and printing precision if its concentration reached 2.0% (w/v). This study provides ideas for the application of Hypsizygus marmoreus by-products protein in stabilizing PEG used for 3D printing, which has a potential to replace traditional hydrogenated cream for cake decoration.

Metabolomics profiling reveals differences in proliferation between tumorigenic and non-tumorigenic Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells.

Background: Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are a cellular matrix in the production of influenza vaccines. The proliferation rate of MDCK cells is one of the critical factors that determine the vaccine production cycle. It is yet to be determined if there is a correlation between cell proliferation and alterations in metabolic levels. This study aimed to explore the metabolic differences between MDCK cells with varying proliferative capabilities through the use of both untargeted and targeted metabolomics. Methods: To investigate the metabolic discrepancies between adherent cell groups (MDCK-M60 and MDCK-CL23) and suspension cell groups (MDCK-XF04 and MDCK-XF06), untargeted and targeted metabolomics were used. Utilizing RT-qPCR analysis, the mRNA expressions of key metabolites enzymes were identified. Results: An untargeted metabolomics study demonstrated the presence of 81 metabolites between MDCK-M60 and MDCK-CL23 cells, which were mainly affected by six pathways. An analysis of MDCK-XF04 and MDCK-XF06 cells revealed a total of 113 potential metabolites, the majority of which were impacted by ten pathways. Targeted metabolomics revealed a decrease in the levels of choline, tryptophan, and tyrosine in MDCK-CL23 cells, which was in accordance with the results of untargeted metabolomics. Additionally, MDCK-XF06 cells experienced a decrease in 5'-methylthioadenosine and tryptophan, while S-adenosylhomocysteine, kynurenine, 11Z-eicosenoic acid, 3-phosphoglycerate, glucose 6-phosphate, and phosphoenolpyruvic acid concentrations were increased. The mRNA levels of MAT1A, MAT2B, IDO1, and IDO2 in the two cell groups were all increased, suggesting that S-adenosylmethionine and tryptophan may have a significant role in cell metabolism. Conclusions: This research examines the effect of metabolite fluctuations on cell proliferation, thus offering a potential way to improve the rate of MDCK cell growth.

Molecular binding mechanism and novel antidiabetic and anti-hypertensive bioactive peptides from fermented camel milk with anti-inflammatory activity in raw macrophages cell lines.

The investigation was to determine the effect of camel milk fermented with Limosilactobacillus fermentum KGL4 (MTCC 25515) on ACE-inhibiting, anti-inflammatory, and diabetes-preventing properties and also to release the novel peptides with antidiabetic and anti-hypertensive attributes with molecular interaction studies. Growth conditions were optimised on the basis of total peptide production by inoculating the culture in camel milk at different rates (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5%) along with different incubation periods (12, 24, 36, and 48 h). However, after 48 h of fermentation with a 2.5% rate of inoculum, the highest proteolytic activity was obtained. Reverse phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was used to calculate the % Rpa from permeates of 3 kDa and 10 kDa fractions. Molecular weight distributions of fermented and unfermented camel milk protein fractions were compared using SDS-PAGE. Spots obtained from 2D gel electrophoresis were separated on the basis of pH and molecular weight. Spots obtained from 2D gel were digested with trypsin, and the digested samples were subjected to RP-LC/MS for the generation of peptide sequences. The inhibition of tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1 during fermentation was studied using RAW 264.7 macrophages. In the study, fermented camel milk with KGL4 (CMKGL4) inhibited LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1ß) by the murine macrophages. The results showed that the peptide structures (YLEELHRLNK and YLQELYPHSSLKVRPILK) exhibited considerable binding affinity against hPAM and hMGA during molecular interaction studies.

Preparation and Product Characterization of Microwaveable Food Using Lentinus edodes Protein through 3D Printing.

The Lentinus edodes protein (LP) is a high-quality protein known for its well-balanced amino acid composition. In this study, we developed three-dimensional (3D)-printed microwaveable food using a combination of LP and potato flour, and optimized the formulation to achieve a ratio of LP: potato flour: xanthan gum: water = 2:8:1:23. The 3D-printed samples exhibited better shape, weight, and size compared to the molded samples after microwave treatment, with the most favorable microwave effect observed at a 90% filling ratio. The LP content affected the viscosity and retrogradation value of the LP-potato starch mixture. Microwave duration affected the surface hardness, interior softness, and moisture content of the product. The highest overall score of 8.295 points was obtained with a microwave processing duration of 2 min. This study lays a foundation for the development of LP-based 3D-printed food.
