Enhancing function, stability, and intracellular uptake of kaempferol in zein-pectin nanoemulsions by a novel dual-frequency pulsed ultrasound system
In order to enhance the stability and bioavailability of fat-soluble kaempferol (Kae), the zein-pectin nanoemulsions were synthesized by a novel dual-frequency pulsed ultrasound (DFPU) technology to improve the loading effect of Kae. The effects of ultrasonic operating parameters on the nanoemulsions were examined, along with the influence of DFPU treatment on the structure, stability, digestion, and intracellular uptake of the nanoemulsions in this study. The results indicated that both emulsion encapsulation and DFPU treatment significantly enhanced the protection and delivery of Kae. Compared to the unsonicated emulsion, the emulsifying activity index, stability index, Kae embedding rate, and hydroxyl radical scavenging rate increased by 133.81 %, 4.18 %, 19.20 %, and 19.73 %, respectively, while the particle size decreased by 94.43 % after DFPU treatment. DFPU treatment notably improved the stability of the nanoemulsions during long-term storage, high temperature, and salt concentration conditions, as well as the retention of Kae by 15.59 % in intestinal digestives. Furthermore, DFPU treatment significantly enhanced the Caco-2 intracellular absorption rate, transport rate and bioavailability of Kae by 7.67 %, 9.96 % and 14.67 %, respectively at a dosage of 0.6 mg/mL, which was attributed to the significant downregulation of mRNA expression levels of tight junction protein Occludin and efflux proteins MDR1 and BCRP by 21.27 %, 51.05 %, and 62.26 %, respectively. This downregulation enhanced the intracellular transport capacity of Kae while reducing its exocytosis, thereby improving cellular utilization. The mechanism of improving the intracellular bioavailability of kaempferol was elucidated. This study offers a promising nanoemulsion for the efficient oral delivery of fat-soluble active ingredients, fully facilitating its antioxidant activity.
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.
