The methods AOAC (Association of Official Analytical Chemists) (Tobaruela et al., 2018) 991.43 is a traditional DF analysis method, mainly analyzing insoluble and soluble higher molecular weight dietary fiber (HMWDF), while methods AOAC 2011.25 is a new dietary fiber analysis method. This method can not only analyze the content of TDF, but also the content of IDF, SDF and resistant starch (RS) (Tobaruela et al.,
Acute gouty arthritis is an acute inflammatory reaction caused by the deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in joints and surrounding soft tissues. Controlling inflammation is the key to preventing acute gouty arthritis. Anti-inflammatory activities and the possible molecular mechanisms of plum (Prunus salicina Lindl cv. “furong”) polyphenols (PSLP) on RAW264.7 macrophage cells induced by monosodium urate were investigated. PPSF significantly inhibited the activity of inflammatory factors such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-18 (IL-18). In addition, PPSF exhibited excellent activation of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and reduction of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in RAW264.7 macrophages. The results of global screening of all transcripts by RNA-seq revealed 8585 differentially expressed genes between the PSLP-treated group and the MUS group. From GO analysis, PSLP could affect the occurrence and development of RAW264.7 macrophage inflammation through biological processes, such as organic substance metabolism, intracellular organelles, and binding function. The regulation mechanism of PSLP on MSU-induced RAW264.7 macrophage inflammation may be achieved through the HIF-1 signaling pathway, renal cell carcinoma, the ErbB signaling pathway, and the FoxO signaling pathway. Therefore, PSLP has great prospects in the prevention of gout and similar inflammatory diseases.
Pickering emulsions stabilized by polysaccharide particles have attracted extensive research interest in the food, biopharmaceutical and cosmetic industries due to their ability to edibility, protect bioactive substances, and control the release of bioactive substances. This paper reviewed research progress in using natural polysaccharides, modified polysaccharides by physical or chemical method and polysaccharide complexes as particles to form and stabilize Pickering emulsions. In particular, the application of Pickering emulsions stabilized polysaccharide particles in encapsulation and delivery of food bioactive ingredients, fat substitutes, and modulation of lipid digestion, was discussed. Finally, the future prospects of Pickering emulsions stabilized by polysaccharide particles were discussed.
Polysaccharides and anthocyanins are one of the main components of many foods, and their interaction affects the texture and nutrition of foods. The anthocyanin-polysaccharide complex was prepared from anthocyanin of plum (Prunus salicina Lindl. cv. Furong) and polysaccharide of Tremella fuciformis. The structure changes of anthocyanin and polysaccharide before and after interaction were investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.The absorption peak at 510 nm of anthocyanin-polysaccharide complex weakened at pH 5.0, and the intensity of absorption spectrum increased with the concentration of polysaccharide. The absorption peaks of anthocyanin-polysaccharide complexes were shifted in the infrared spectral curve of anthocyanin, and the formation of complex was caused by electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bond interaction between anthocyanin and polysaccharide. From microstructural analysis, anthocyanin and polysaccharide were effectively bound together. This can provide theoretical guidance for the structural design of anthocyaninpolysaccharide food and the development and utilization of new food ingredients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
