Enzyme immobilization by metal organic frameworks (MOFs) is an efficient way for screening active constituents in natural products. However, the enzyme's biocatalysis activity is usually decreased due to unfavorable conformational changes during the immobilization process. In this study, sodium cholate was firstly used as the modifier for zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) immobilized lipase to increase both the stability and activity. More importantly, with the help of solubilization of sodium cholate, a total of 3 flavonoids and 6 alkaloids candidate compounds were fished out. Their structures were identified and the enzyme inhibitory activities were verified. In addition, the binding information between the candidate compound and the enzyme was displayed by molecular docking. This study provides valuable information for the improvement of immobilized enzyme activity and functional active ingredients in complicated medicinal plant extracts.

Recent studies have emphasized the modification of Insoluble Dietary Fiber (IDF) to enhance its physicochemical properties and functional performance. This study systematically examined the effects of ultrasonic treatment, microwave irradiation, high-temperature and high-pressure processing, and screw extrusion on the physicochemical characteristics, in vitro antioxidant activity, and adsorption capacities of High-Purity Insoluble Dietary Fiber (HPIDF) derived from black bean residues. Although these physical modifications did not alter the functional group composition or crystalline structure of HPIDF, they significantly enhanced its porosity, water-holding capacity (WHC), oil-holding capacity (OHC), and adsorption capacities for glucose, cholesterol, bile salts, and metal ions.

In this study, water-soluble fraction (WSF), chelator-soluble fraction (CSF), and sodium carbonate-soluble fraction (NSF) were sequentially fractionated from pear pulp, of which physicochemical properties and hypolipidemic activities in vitro were evaluated. They showed distinct monosaccharide composition, surface morphology, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrums. WSF and NSF were identified as high methyl-esterified pectic polysaccharides with degrees of methyl esterification (DM) of 85.

Article Synopsis
  • Bile salts act as biosurfactants in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to emulsify and absorb fat-soluble nutrients and drugs.
  • The study utilized giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) to investigate the permeation behavior of bile salts and their mixed micelles, using sodium cholate (NaC) and various lipophilic substances.
  • Findings showed that below the critical micelle concentration (CMC), NaC causes endocytic changes in GUVs, while above the CMC, mixed micelles interact with the membrane differently, forming aggregates that migrate into the GUV, with variations observed depending on the type of lipophilic component used.

Ultra-flexible nanoliposomes (UNL) coated with sodium cholate were fabricated using the thin film hydration technique to encapsulate oleocanthal (OLEO), oleacein (OLEA), oleuropein (OLEU), and hydroxytyrosol (HT) for improving their stability and bioactivity. Their physicochemical properties were further validated through DLS, FTIR, XRD, TGA, and DSC analyses. Negative-staining TEM imaging revealed well-dispersed UNL with laminar vesicles inside.

The present work focuses on the photophysical behavior of meso-N-butylcarbazole-substituted BODIPY (CBZ-BDP) in different organized media towards exploring the possible use of the dye as a molecular sensor and imaging agent. The molecule shows an appreciable change in absorption and emission spectra at 75% water-acetonitrile mixture compared to pure acetonitrile. In water-acetonitrile mixture, it displays aggregate-induced emission (AIE) bands.
