The freeze-dried microcapsule of W1/O/W2 double emulsion developed in this study is a promising delivery matrix to encapsulate hydrophilic ingredients including peptides. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra of the microcapsule powder indicated good compatibility between peptide and encapsulants.Researches demonstrated that gut microbiota are associated with breast cancer progression. This study aims to evaluate the anti-breast tumor effects of daucosterol linolenate (DLA), daucosterol linoleate (DL), and daucosterol palmitate (DP) from sweet potato in MCF-7 xenograft nude mice by determining the tumor growth, serum tumor markers, tumor-related proteins, and performing 16S rDNA sequencing. After treatment at 87.8 mg/kg/day for 29 days, DLA, DL and DP delayed tumor growth and decreased levels of tumor marker carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and cancer antigen 153 (CA153) in vivo. All treatments activated caspase 3, 9, PARP1 cleavage, down-regulated Ki67, VEGF, BCL-2, BCL-XL, up-regulated BAX expression, and inhibited PI3K/AKT/NF-κB activation in tumor tissues. Their anti-breast tumor effects were associated with the regulation on gut microbiota. The three treatments increased Bacteroidetes whereas decreased Firmicutes richness. They also modulated the diversity of gut microbiota at family and genus levels. Furthermore, DL treatment promoted butyric acid secretion, DP promoted acetic acid and butyric acid secretion in the colorectal and feces. Our findings indicate that DLA, DL, and DP inhibit tumor growth in MCF-7 xenograft nude mice by regulating the homeostasis of gut microbiota, producing SCFAs, and then disturbing the expression of cancer-related proteins. The present study suggests three phytosterols as gut microbiota regulator for breast cancer prevention.Hong Qu glutinous rice wine (HQ wine) is a traditional alcoholic beverage produced in China by fermenting cooked rice using a fermentation starter prepared with the fungus Monascus purpureus. This starter (Hong Qu, HQ) is made empirically by open spontaneous fermentation that is hard to control and standardize, resulting in inconsistent wine quality. This study investigates representative HQ samples from a large geographic region. It explores fungal microbiome compositions, identifies characteristic differences important for the production of various HQ wine styles, and reveals the key fungi responsible for HQ wine fermentation characteristics. The source of the HQ inoculum was found to be the main factor influencing fungal community composition and diversity, followed by processing technology and geographical distribution. Linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) uncovered 14 genera as potential biomarkers to distinguish regional varieties of HQ. Significant differences were also found in fermentation characteristics such as liquefying power (LP), saccharifying power (SP), fermenting power (FP), total acid content (TA) and liquor-producing power (LPP). The key fungi responsible for LP (5 genera), SP (3 genera), FP (1 genera), LPP (4 genera), and TA (4 genera) were determined using redundancy correlation analysis. Finally, Spearman's correlation analysis indicated that LPP shows a strong positive correlation with FP and LP, while TA displays a strong negative correlation with FP. The results of this study may be utilized to prepare consistently high quality, next-generation HQ by better controlling fungal community structures, and to design fermentation processes for HQ wines with desirable oenological characteristics.Dehydration of grapes has been used in various regions of the world to produce special wines, aiming to add value to oenological products. Post-harvest dehydration in rooms may be carried out regardless of weather conditions, without the additional cost of a specific infrastructure, in addition to the benefits of protecting the grapes from damages and environmental pollution. The objective of this study was to verify, for the first time, the impact of the dehydration in a naturally ventilated room on the quality of Merlot grapes. Physicochemical characteristics, mycobiota, occurrence of mycotoxins, volatile profile and phenolic composition of grapes were monitored on 7th, 14th and 21st days of dehydration (weight loss of 10, 20 and 27%, respectively). A decrease in aw (6%), pH (4%), and berry hardness (58%), along with an increase in total soluble solid content (15%) were observed during dehydration. The presence of Pestalotiopsis clavispora, Neopestalotiopsis clavispora, Colletotrichum siamense and Alternarimic acids (caffeic acid and caftaric acid), two flavonols (kaempeferol galactoside and quercetin) and two anthocyanins (peonidin 3-O-hexoside and delphinidin 3-O-hexoside). Grapes of satisfactory quality were produced by dehydration in a naturally ventilated room. U0126 ic50 Even small wine producers can be encouraged to implement this procedure for the diversification of oenological products, as it has no costs related to the implementation of chambers/tunnels.Efficient screening of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitory (ACE-I) peptides from agricultural or edible sources attract increasing attention. However, their purification process from the complex natural system is still semi-empirical or even uncontrollable, which has seriously reduced their screening efficiency. Herein, inspired by the prediction of ACE-I activity, 3D-QSAR was proposed to predict the adsorption performance of peptides from sericin hydrolysate (SH) having high ACE-I activity on porous hypercross-linked polymers according to their molecular structures. Thiophene hypercross-linked polymer (T-HCP) possessing better screening capacity for ACE-I peptides was chosen as our research object in this work. The sequence and relative adsorption rate of 101 peptides in SH were analyzed by LC-MS and was used as a database to construct the relationship of peptide's chemical structure and adsorption performance on T-HCP by Comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) from 3D-QSAR. Optimum CoMSIA revealed that enhanced interaction of hydrophobicity and H-bond between T-HCP and the peptide was conducive to increase the adsorption performance of di- to hexa- peptides. Based on these relationships, the adsorption capability of 24 designed peptides with distinguished hydrophobic and H-bond fields was predicted on T-HCP by using optimum CoMSIA and the results of half of these were verified, which showed high consistency with their predicted adsorption rate. Interestingly, these peptides having higher adsorption capacities on T-HCP also possessed higher ACE-I activity. This can be attributed to the high concentration of aromatic surface with π-π interaction and weak-polar CSC group with H-bond interaction on T-HCP material, which is ideal for the selective adsorption of peptides with higher ACE-I activity from SH. This study provides important theoretical guidance for the industrial screening of bio-functional peptides from complex protein mixtures.U0126 ic50
