Abstract
Appetite regulation and weight control can be achieved by dietary modulation for the secretion of satiety hormones glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY) from colonic L cells. Herein, to construct an oral colon-targeted delivery system, carboxymethyl starch (CMS)/denatured whey protein isolate (DWPI) coacervate microcapsules (CDCMs) were fabricated by encapsulating the oleoylethanolamide (OEA). Moreover, tannic acid was used as a crosslinker (CL) to adjust the interaction between the components, forming a more compact and ordered structure, with particle sizes ranging from 12.36 μm–13.30 μm, and OEA loading capacities ranging from 240.34 μg/mL ∼259.34 μg/mL. As the amount of CL was increased, CDCMs demonstrated an excellent ability to maintain structural integrity in the simulated upper gastrointestinal tract, with the degradation rates of CMS and DWPI decreasing from 30.53 % to 65.04 %–8.67 % and 26.33 %, respectively, and the release rate of OEA decreasing from 88.18 % to 20.61 %, showing a good colonic-targeted delivery performance. Furthermore, CDCM-1 fermentation in the colon increased the abundance of gut bacteria, especially the short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) producing bacteria. In addition, the sustained release of OEA (release of 24.34 mg/mL after 48h) synergized with CMS/DWPI metabolites such as reducing sugars, protein hydrolysates, and SCFAs effectively modulated GLP-1 and PYY secretion from L cells, with the highest releases of 28.03 pg/mL and 45.50 pg/mL at 48 h, respectively. Therefore, the prepared CDCMs have potential to be a prospective food for weight control.
期刊介绍:
Food Hydrocolloids publishes original and innovative research focused on the characterization, functional properties, and applications of hydrocolloid materials used in food products. These hydrocolloids, defined as polysaccharides and proteins of commercial importance, are added to control aspects such as texture, stability, rheology, and sensory properties. The research's primary emphasis should be on the hydrocolloids themselves, with thorough descriptions of their source, nature, and physicochemical characteristics. Manuscripts are expected to clearly outline specific aims and objectives, include a fundamental discussion of research findings at the molecular level, and address the significance of the results. Studies on hydrocolloids in complex formulations should concentrate on their overall properties and mechanisms of action, while simple formulation development studies may not be considered for publication.
The main areas of interest are:
-Chemical and physicochemical characterisation
Thermal properties including glass transitions and conformational changes-
Rheological properties including viscosity, viscoelastic properties and gelation behaviour-
The influence on organoleptic properties-
Interfacial properties including stabilisation of dispersions, emulsions and foams-
Film forming properties with application to edible films and active packaging-
Encapsulation and controlled release of active compounds-
The influence on health including their role as dietary fibre-
Manipulation of hydrocolloid structure and functionality through chemical, biochemical and physical processes-
New hydrocolloids and hydrocolloid sources of commercial potential.
The Journal also publishes Review articles that provide an overview of the latest developments in topics of specific interest to researchers in this field of activity.
