Nevertheless, the utilization of native amylose for the creation of inclusion complexes (ICs) is constrained by its pronounced propensity for retrogradation (re-crystallization) and its limited water solubility. Therefore, chemical modification of amylose stands as an innovative approach to generate soluble ICs. This study focused on generating and evaluating ICs composed of cationic amylose sourced from sago and corn, which then loaded with FCs (menthol, thymol, and eugenol). The characteristics of ICs with FCs were characterized in terms of including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Complex Index, Fourier transform infrared/Raman spectroscopy, and scanning electron/atomic force microscopy. The XRD and the complex index findings suggested that cationizing the anhydroglucose units of amylose was accomplished without disrupting its helical structure, while also showing a promising ability to create ICs. Notably, sago amylose exhibited a significantly higher complex index compared to corn amylose (<em>p</em> < 0.05). Morphological analysis of the cationized amylose-flavor ICs revealed the presence of spherical and lamellar crystalline structures, suggesting a well-organized assembly resulting from ICs. Also, due to its high hydrophobicity and low vapor pressure, menthol in the presence of ethanol was able to form more ICs with amylose compared to thymol and eugenol. Finally, the study highlighted the unique properties of sago amylose, including its high retrogradation tendency, which was further enhanced by cationization. These findings underscore the utility of cationized amylose, particularly from sago, as an advanced material for encapsulating hydrophobic compounds.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100213,"journal":{"name":"Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications","volume":"8 ","pages":"Article 100615"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142746994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

UVB rays penetrate the epidermis, inducing oxidative stress and compromising essential cellular components. The demand for natural ingredients with properties such as moisturization, anti-inflammatory effects, antioxidant protection, and compatibility is increasing to combat the impact of photodamage on the skin. Herein, the carboxymethyl chitosan oligosaccharide (CM-COS) enzymatic hydroxylates were used on the topical application of skin photodamage for the first time. CM-COS, the degradation product of carboxymethyl chitosan, has high water solubility and multiple biological activities. Results showed that CM-COS promoted human epidermal cell (HaCaT) migration without causing cytotoxicity. In photodamaged HaCaT cells, CM-COS maintained cell viability and cytoskeletal integrity while inhibiting reactive oxygen species accumulation, apoptosis, and cell cycle arrest. CM-COS regulates gene expression related to cell cycle, oxidative stress, and inflammation in UVB-radiated HaCaT based on transcriptomic and qPCR data. In UVB-exposed mice, topical treatment of CM-COS significantly alleviated redness and scab formation and increased the moisture content of photodamaged skin. Histological analyses revealed reduced epidermal thickness and increased collagen I and collagen III deposition in photodamaged skin following CM-COS treatment. Additionally, gene expression related to the cell cycle, extracellular matrix, and inflammation were significantly activated by CM-COS based on transcriptomic and qPCR data. CM-COS modulated the levels of collagen and inflammation-related proteins.

UAOS exhibited good prebiotic effects; increased beneficial intestinal bacteria; improved the diversity, structure, and composition of the gut microbiota; and promoted the production of SCFAs.

Moreover, orally administered UAOS alleviated intestinal mucosal immunosuppression by upregulating the levels of the tight junction proteins occludin and ZO-1, enhancing the intestinal biochemical and immune barrier function by increasing levels of mucin-2 and SIgA, upregulating the CD4+/CD8+ ratio, regulating CD4+ <em>T</em> cell differentiation, and stimulated immune cytokine secretion and transcription factor production (T-bet/GATA-3).
