Book Synopsis ROLE OF LIPID-BASED DELIVERY SYSTEMS IN THE BIOLOGICAL FATE OF LIPOPHILIC NUTRACEUTICALS AND INORGANIC NANO-PARTICLES IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. by : Mingfei Yao
Download or read book ROLE OF LIPID-BASED DELIVERY SYSTEMS IN THE BIOLOGICAL FATE OF LIPOPHILIC NUTRACEUTICALS AND INORGANIC NANO-PARTICLES IN THE GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. written by Mingfei Yao and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oral bioavailability of lipophilic bioactive molecules can be greatly increased by encapsulating them within engineered lipid nanoparticles, such as micelles, microemulsions and nanoemulsions. After ingestion these engineered lipid nanoparticles are disassembled in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), and then reassembled into biological lipid nanoparticles (mixed micelles) in the small intestine. These mixed micelles solubilize and transport lipophilic bioactive components to the epithelium cells. The mixed micelles themselves are then disassembled and reassembled into yet another form of biological lipid nanoparticle (chylomicrons, CMs) within the enterocyte cells. The CMs carry the bioactive components into the systemic (blood) circulation via the lymphatic system, thereby avoiding metabolism in the small intestine and liver. Polymethoxyflavones (PMFs) are bioactive flavonoids found in citrus fruits that have been shown to have potential health promoting properties. However, their application as nutraceuticals in functional foods and beverages is currently limited due to their low water solubility and high melting point. The oral bioavailability of lipophilic compounds can be enhanced by promoting their intestinal lymphatic transport through co-administration with digestible lipids. First, we investigated the effects of chylomicron-mediated intestinal lymphatic transport on the bioavailability of 5-hydroxy-6, 7, 8, 3', 4'-pentamethoxylflavone (5-DN), one of representative PMFs in Caco-2 cells. Our results demonstrated that oleic acid and bile acid promoted secretion of CMs in Caco-2 cells, with mean diameter ranged from 70 to 150 nm. The intracellular level of 5-DN increased 3-fold by co-incubation with the mixed micelle solution. Moreover, the basolateral level of 5-DN increased 3-fold due to enhanced chylomicron-mediated transport. Based on the above results, we then evaluate the influence of different fatty acid types on the properties of mixed micelles, cellular lipid droplets and CMs, and on the uptake of the highly lipophilic nutraceutical 5-DN. There were distinct differences in the structural properties of CMs formed depending on fatty acid unsaturation. Oleic acid (C18:1) was most effective at enhancing transport of 5-DN and led to the formation of the largest CMs. Linoleic acid (C18:2) and linolenic acid (C18:3) also promoted 5-DN incorporation into CMs, but they were less efficient than oleic acid. The metabolism of 5-DN within the epithelium cells was greatly reduced when they were incorporated into CMs, presumably because they were isolated from metabolic enzymes in the cytoplasm. These results have important implications for the design of lipid nanoparticle-based delivery systems for lipophilic drugs and nutraceuticals by targeting them to the lymphatic circulation. Fatherly, we studied the effects of triglycerides-based nanoemulsion delivery systems with different fatty acid chain lengths on the bioavailability 5-DN. 5-DN was encapsulated in medium chain triglycerides (MCT) or canola oil (long chain triglycerides, LCT) based nanoemulsion. They were subject to a simulated gastrointestinal digestion model. Finally, the mixed micelle phase was applied to Caco-2 monolayer cell model that mimics intestinal absorption. Higher bioaccessibility of 5-DN was found in MCT nanoemulsion than canola nanoemulsion, 13% vs.7% respectively. However, only 30% 5-DN crossed Caco-2 monolayer while half of them were metabolized for MCT nanoemulsion, up to 60% 5-DN and only 10% were metabolized in canola nanoemulsion. Results also demonstrated more lipid droplets and CMs were formed by canola nanoemulsion, which were responsible for transportation of 5-DN to the lymph. In conclusion, although for lipophilic components like 5-DN, relatively higher bioaccessibility can be achieved by MCT-based nanoemulsion, LCT-based emulsion was more potent in enhancing the bioavailability through increased lymphatic transport. Lipids especially the ones with polyunsaturated long chain fatty acids (PUFA) are very susceptible to oxidation. Ingestion of oxidized lipids is associated with all kinds of health risk: diabetes, tumor development and atherosclerosis. Meanwhile, the oxidation of lipids may affect the absorption of lipophilic bioactive components in foods. We compared the effect of oxidized and unoxidized PUFA, linoleic acid (LA) on the transport of the highly lipophilic compound 5-hydroxy 6,7,8,4' tetramethoxylflavone (5-DMT) by a Caco-2 cell model. Results turned out that unoxidized LA improved bioavailability of 5-DMT by stimulating CMs. Oxidized LA also showed an effect of improving transport of 5-DMT. However, it significantly affected the morphology of Caco-2 monolayer especially the tight junction. Accordingly, the transport pathway could be altered compared to the unoxidized LA, which will ultimately influence the distribution and metabolism fate of lipophilic components in the human body. Recently, the fate of inorganic nanoparticles in foods after ingestion has been attracted highly attention. Based on the above model and experimental methods, we also investigate the transport and toxicity of inorganic nanoparticle (AuNPs) on Caco-2 cell monolayer. AuNPs with different size (15nm, 50nm and 100nm) were applied. Our results demonstrated that more amount of gold was retained in the monolayer and higher toxicity was caused for larger size of AuNPs. Besides, mixed micelles greatly improve the secretion of AuNPs. The influence may be associated with formation abundant lipid droplets and CMs in the monolayer after fatty acids were taken in.

Book Synopsis Enhancing Nutraceuticals Bioavailability by Nanoemulsion-based Delivery and Excipient Systems by : Ruojie Zhang
Download or read book Enhancing Nutraceuticals Bioavailability by Nanoemulsion-based Delivery and Excipient Systems written by Ruojie Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous kinds of hydrophobic nutrients, nutraceuticals, and vitamins present in foods that can be consumed as part of whole foods, in an isolated form, or as part of processed foods. The oral bioavailability (BA) of many of these hydrophobic bioactives is relatively poor because of their limited bioaccessibility, low absorption, and/or transformation within the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). As a result, their potential health benefits may not be fully realized. The bioavailability of hydrophobic bioactives can be enhanced by designing food matrices that breakdown within the GIT to form compositions and structures capable of controlling the bioaccessibility, absorption, and transformation. Oil-in-water emulsions are particularly suitable for this purpose because their compositions, structures, and properties can easily be controlled. Nanoemulsions can be used to form bioactive delivery systems or excipient systems. The bioavailability of isolated bioactives can be improved by incorporating them in nanoemulsion-based delivery systems, while the bioavailability of bioactives in whole foods can be improved by ingesting them with nanoemulsion-based excipient systems. In this research, the biological fate of nanoemulsions with various compositions and structures were studied by utilizing the simulated gastrointestinal tract. In addition, the nanoemulsion-based delivery systems were established for enhancing the carotenoids bioaccessibility and curcumin accumulation in C. elegans. Furthermore, the nanoemulsion-based excipient systems were studied to enhancing the bioaccessibility of model vegetable, carrot, by optimizing their composition and structure. However, a potential drawback of the excipient emulsion is that co-ingestion of them with fruits or vegetables could increase pesticide bioaccessibility. Our research indicated that the food matrix could significantly impact the bioavailability of nutraceuticals and pesticides, it may further impact other ingested materials, such as nanoparticles. However, there are currently no standardized food models can be used. Therefore, a standardized food model(SFM) was establised based on the average composition of the US diet. The properties of the SFM and its impact on the bioacessibility of nutraceuticals and pesticides and the cycotoxicity of nanopartlces were studied. This information should be useful to facilitate the comparison of results obtained on food matrix effects from different laboratories.

Download or read book Nutrient Delivery written by Alexandru Grumezescu and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-08-12 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nutrient Delivery: Nanotechnology in the Agri-Food Industry, Volume Five, discusses the fabrication, merits, demerits, applications, and bioavailability enhancement mechanisms of various nanodelivery systems. Recent developments in various nanodelivery systems are also highlighted. Volume 5 contains twenty chapters, prepared by outstanding international researchers from Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Croatia, India, Iran, Ireland, México, Pakistan, Portugal, Serbia, Sri Lanka, and the United States. In recent years, the delivery of micronutrients at nanoscale has been widely studied as these systems have the potential to improve bioavailability, enable controlled release and enhance stability of food bioactives to a greater extent. The nanodelivery systems typically consist of the food bioactive compound encapsulated and stabilized in food grade ingredients such as lipids, proteins or polysaccharides with diameters ranging from 10 nm to 1000 nm. Among these, the lipid based delivery systems such as nanoemulsions, solid lipid nanoparticles, nanoliposomes and micelles are widely studied for the delivery of lipophilic bioactive compounds. These delivery vehicles improve the solubility, permeability, stability and bioavailability of the lipophilic compounds thereby enhancing their potential for oral delivery and functional food development. On the other hand, the hydrophilic bioactives are delivered through protein, polysaccharide or biopolymer based colloidal nanosystems such as hydrogels, nanogels and polymer nanoparticles. The major concern other than solubility is the intestinal permeability of the micronutrients. For instance, the delivery system for compounds with poor intestinal permeability and low solubility need to be carefully designed using suitable lipids and surfactants. Offers updated material for undergraduate and postgraduate students in food science, biotechnology, and related engineering fields Provides a valuable resource of recent scientific progress, along with most known applications of nanomaterials in the food industry for researchers, engineers, and academics Includes novel opportunities and ideas for developing or improving technologies in the food industry
