Description

Controlled release carrier for improving biological accessibility of curcumin and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a controlled release carrier for improving biological accessibility of curcumin and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of curcumin delivery carriers.
Background
Curcumin is a natural phenolic compound separated from turmeric, has physiological activities of antioxidation, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, antibiosis and the like, and has wide application in the health fields of foods, medicines and the like. However, curcumin has extremely poor water solubility, is difficult to disperse in water-based digestive juice after being taken in through the oral cavity and entering the human digestive tract, and only sufficiently dispersed curcumin can be absorbed by intestinal epithelial cells into the human body. Promoting the dispersion of curcumin in digestive juice is one of the key technologies to improve its bioavailability.
Literature (Yao Hu, et al. Encapsulation, protection, and delivery of curcumin using succinylated-cyclodextrin systems with strong resistance to environmental and physiological stimuli,Food Chemistry,Volume 376,2022,131869.) has achieved excellent results by embedding curcumin in the cavities of water-soluble cyclodextrin molecules, which effectively improves its dispersibility in aqueous matrices. However, due to the high water solubility of the prepared curcumin-cyclodextrin inclusion compound, the curcumin is released completely immediately after entering the alimentary canal, and the sudden release effect enables human bodies to absorb high-concentration curcumin in a short time, so that potential toxic and side effects can be generated. Therefore, a technical difficulty in improving the bioavailability of curcumin is to control the release rate of curcumin in the digestive tract, thereby making it highly effective in exerting the bioavailability.
Curcumin is ingested and then sequentially passes through the upper digestive tract (oral cavity-stomach-small intestine) and the lower digestive tract (large intestine), and the non-digested and absorbed curcumin finally exits the body along with feces. In the upper digestive tract process, curcumin dispersed into digestive juice under the action of digestive enzymes, bile salts and the like can be directly absorbed by digestive tract epithelial cells; in the lower digestive tract, curcumin produces a series of metabolites under the action of intestinal microorganisms, and the physiological activity of the metabolites is correspondingly changed. The upper and lower digestive tract processes belong to two completely different processes, and a carrier that can be used for the lower digestive tract process is not necessarily used for the upper digestive tract carrier. Generally, the bioavailability of curcumin refers to the content of curcumin dispersed in the upper digestive tract and absorbed by the human body. Constructing an upper gastrointestinal delivery vehicle of curcumin is the most promising technical means for improving the biological accessibility of curcumin at present.
The literature (Wang Yurong, feng, megaly, et al, preparation of carboxymethylated bletilla polysaccharide-chitosan curcumin-loaded polyelectrolyte composite membrane and its characterization [ J ]. Chinese herbal medicines, 2020, 51 (4): 8.DOI: 10.7501/j.issn.0253-2670.2020.04.023.) discloses a method for preparing carboxymethylated bletilla polysaccharide-chitosan curcumin-loaded polyelectrolyte composite membrane, mainly for oral cavity release; CN115607524a discloses a composite nanoparticle loaded with curcumin, which is of a shell-core structure, wherein curcumin and zein are taken as cores, and carboxymethyl pachyman is taken as a shell; CN 108653721a discloses chitosan carrier drugs of water-soluble curcumin derivatives; CN104273522B discloses the preparation of curcumin nanocomposites, wherein lecithin and tween-80 are required as emulsifiers; but still has the problems of low biological accessibility of curcumin, high energy load brought by grease carriers, use of small molecule emulsifying agents and the like with potential toxic components and the like.

Example 2
The amount of SACD used in step (1) of example 1 was adjusted to 1.4g, and the procedure was otherwise identical to that of example 1, to obtain nano-carrier Cur-SACD/CS (SACD: CS=7:5).
Example 3
The amount of SACD used in step (1) of example 1 was adjusted to 1.8g, and the procedure was otherwise identical to that of example 1, to obtain nano-carrier Cur-SACD/CS (SACD: CS=9:5).
Comparative example 1
SACD in step (1) of example 1 was omitted, and the adjustment step (1) was:
1g CS is dissolved in 1% glacial acetic acid solution of 100 mL, and after the solution is fully dissolved, the pH value of the solution is regulated to be 5.3 by using 0.2 mol/L NaOH solution, so that CS solution is obtained;
Slowly dripping (3 mL/min) 400 mL absolute ethyl alcohol into the CS solution, and continuously stirring 400 rpm for 1 h; centrifuging to collect precipitate in the solution, washing with 67% ethanol water solution for 3 times, and drying to obtain CS nanoparticles;
The procedure was otherwise as in example 1 to give Cur-CS vector.
Comparative example 2

Comparative example 3
The amount of SACD used in step (1) of example 1 was adjusted to 0.6 g, and the procedure was otherwise consistent with example 1 to give nanocarriers Cur-SACD/CS (SACD: CS=3:5).
The nanocarriers prepared in examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 to 3 were subjected to performance test, and the test results were as follows:
FIG. 1 is an SEM image of SACD/CS complexes prepared in examples 1-3 and comparative examples 1-3, wherein (a) comparative example 1 (0:5); (b) comparative example 2 (1:5); (c) comparative example 3 (3:5); (d) example 1 (5:5); (e) example 2 (7:5); (f) example 3 (9:5). As can be seen from fig. 1: the SACD/CS nanoparticle prepared in example 1 has uniform microscopic morphology; the SACD/CS nanoparticles prepared in examples 2,3 exhibit a coherent nanoparticle aggregate structure; CS in comparative example 1 exhibited an irregular network structure, with no nanoparticle structure present; in comparative example 2, only a small amount of nanoparticle structure was present in SACD/CS, and the remaining majority exhibited a slightly crosslinked network structure; in comparative example 3, SACD/CS had a large number of nanoparticle structures, but there was still a partially crosslinked network structure between the nanoparticles.
FIG. 2 is a FTIR spectrum of SACD/CS complexes prepared in examples 1-3 and comparative examples 2-3. As can be seen from fig. 2: the characteristic peak associated with the N-H bending vibration of the primary amine group in example 1 red shifted from 1589 cm -1 to 1579 cm -1, a phenomenon that demonstrates that the amino groups of CS crosslink with SACD by electrostatic interaction to form composite nanoparticles; the characteristic peak associated with the N-H bending vibration of the primary amine group in example 2 (1589 cm -1) red shifted from 1589 cm -1 to 1579 cm -1, with SACD: cs=5: 5 (example 1) no further red shift was observed compared to the SACD/CS complex prepared, indicating that the electrostatic interaction between SACD and CS has reached saturation; characteristic peaks (1589 cm -1) associated with the N-H bending vibration of the primary amine group in 3 were implemented to red shift from 1589 cm -1 to 1579 cm -1, and SACD: cs=5: 5 (example 1) no further red shift was observed compared to the SACD/CS complex prepared, indicating that the electrostatic interaction between SACD and CS has reached saturation; the characteristic peak (1589 cm -1) related to the N-H bending vibration of the primary amine group in comparative example 2 cannot be observed to significantly move, which indicates that the electrostatic interaction between the amino group of CS and SACD is weak, and the requirement of forming composite nanoparticles cannot be fully satisfied; the characteristic peak associated with the N-H bending vibration of the primary amine group in comparative example 3 was red-shifted from 1589 cm -1 to 1583 cm -1, which demonstrates that the amino group of CS and SACD are crosslinked by electrostatic interaction to form a nanoparticle structure, which is still incomplete compared with example 1.
FIG. 3 shows the release of curcumin at various stages of in vitro simulated digestion of the nanocarriers prepared in examples 1-3 and comparative examples 1-3. As can be seen from fig. 3: the nano-carriers prepared in the embodiments 1,2 and 3 enable more curcumin to be dispersed into digestive juice and be absorbed and utilized by intestinal epithelial cells, and the accumulated release rates of the curcumin in the upper digestive tract reach 75.19%, 73.25% and 74.20%, so that the delayed control delivery of the curcumin in the digestion process is realized, and the nano-carriers have great application potential in the health fields such as foods, medicines and the like; comparative example 1 in the in vitro simulated digestion process, the release rates of curcumin in Cur-CS carrier in oral cavity, stomach and small intestine digestive juice are 0.02%, 0.03% and 8.46%, respectively, which are not significantly different from the release rates of non-loaded curcumin (0.03%, 0.07% and 7.94%), the cumulative release rate of curcumin in upper digestive tract is only 8.51%, which is not advantageous compared with the prior art; comparative example 2 in the in vitro simulated digestion process, the release rates of curcumin in Cur-SACD/CS nanocarriers in oral, gastric and small intestine digestive juice were 0.04%, 0.45% and 12.69%, respectively, and there was no significant difference in the release rates of curcumin without loading (0.03%, 0.07% and 7.94%), the cumulative release rate of curcumin in the upper digestive tract was only 13.18%, which is not advantageous over the prior art; comparative example 3 in the in vitro simulated digestion process, the release rates of curcumin in Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers in oral, gastric and small intestine digestive juice were 3.56%, 9.88% and 19.64%, respectively, and compared with the release rates of non-loaded curcumin (0.03%, 0.07% and 7.94%), the prepared Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers dispersed more curcumin into digestive juice and could be absorbed and utilized by intestinal epithelial cells, but the cumulative release rate of curcumin in upper digestive tract was only 33.08%, which is not advantageous compared with the prior art.
FIG. 4 shows the retention rate of curcumin in Cur-SACD/CS nanocarriers prepared in example 1 after incubation at simulated gastric fluid pH (a), intestinal fluid pH (b), physiological salt concentration (c) and physiological temperature (d) (I-VI show that the difference between samples is significant, and p < 0.05). As can be seen from fig. 4: after curcumin in the Cur-SACD/CS carrier is treated by 2 h, 12 h, 12 h and 12 h under the conditions of simulated gastric fluid pH, intestinal fluid pH, physiological salt concentration and physiological temperature, the retention rate is changed from 88%, 24%, 35% and 19% to 88%, 72%, 70% and 63% respectively, which shows that the stability of the curcumin is obviously improved.
Fig. 5 is a loading curve of curcumin for the nanocarriers prepared in example 1 and comparative example 1. As can be seen from fig. 5: the loading capacity of SACD/CS to curcumin reaches 0.36 mg/g, the loading rate is 36%, and the loading effect of CS to curcumin is far higher.
Comparative example 4
The chitosan in the step (1) of the adjustment example is guar hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (GHC) (synthetic cationic polysaccharide, similar to chitosan), and is specifically as follows:
1g of GHC was dissolved in 100 mL pH.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give GHC solution;
1 g SACD was dissolved in 100mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give SACD solution;
Slowly adding the SACD solution into (50 mL/min) GHC solution, and stirring 400: 400 rpm to react for 20min; slowly dripping (3 mL/min) 400 mL absolute ethanol, and continuously stirring 400 rpm for 1 h to promote complex formation; after the reaction is finished, centrifugally collecting SACD/GHC compound in the solution, washing 3 times by using ethanol water solution with the volume fraction of 67%, and drying to obtain SACD/GHC compound (the morphology is shown in figure 6);
The others remain the same as in example 1.
The result shows that: although some sites of the SACD/GHC complex were observed to have nanoparticle-like structures, the inter-particle adhesion was severe, and the rest of the sites failed to observe the particle structure, but rather a flaky, smooth polymer morphology (FIG. 6). When SACD/GHC is dispersed in water for loading curcumin, the SACD/GHC complex gradually dissolves, cannot be used for loading curcumin, and cannot be further explored for its controlled release effect during digestion in vitro.
Comparative example 5
The chitosan in the step (1) of the embodiment is adjusted to be Arabic gum, and the method is as follows:
1g of gum arabic is dissolved in 100 mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to obtain a gum arabic solution;
1 g SACD was dissolved in 100mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give SACD solution;
Slowly adding the SACD solution into the (50 mL/min) Arabic gum solution, and stirring 400: 400 rpm to react 20: 20 min; slowly dripping (3 mL/min) 400 mL absolute ethanol, and continuously stirring 400 rpm for 1h to promote complex formation; after the reaction is finished, centrifugally collecting SACD/Arabic gum complex in the solution, washing 3 times by using ethanol water solution with the volume fraction of 67%, and drying to obtain SACD/Arabic gum complex;
The others remain the same as in example 1.
The result shows that: when the SACD/acacia complex carrier is dispersed in water for loading curcumin, the SACD/acacia complex is gradually dissolved, cannot be used for loading curcumin, and cannot be further explored for its controlled release effect during in vitro digestion.
Comparative example 6
The chitosan in the step (1) of the embodiment is adjusted to be gelatin, and the method is as follows:
1 g gelatin was dissolved in 100 mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give gelatin solution;
1 g SACD was dissolved in 100mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give SACD solution;
Slowly adding the SACD solution into (50 mL/min) gelatin solution, and stirring 400: 400 rpm to react 20: 20 min; slowly dripping (3 mL/min) 400 mL absolute ethanol, and continuously stirring 400 rpm for 1h to promote complex formation; after the reaction is finished, centrifugally collecting SACD/gelatin complex in the solution, washing 3 times by using ethanol water solution with the volume fraction of 67%, and drying to obtain SACD/gelatin complex;
The others remain the same as in example 1.
The result shows that: when the SACD/gelatin complex carrier is dispersed in water for loading curcumin, the SACD/gelatin complex is gradually dissolved, cannot be used for loading curcumin, and cannot be further explored for the controlled release effect during in vitro digestion.
Comparative example 7
The CS in step (1) of example 1 was omitted, specifically as follows:
Weighing 0.5 g SACD into 45: 45 mL water, and continuously stirring at 150: 150 rpm for 30: 30min to obtain SACD solution;
dispersing curcumin in absolute ethyl alcohol to obtain curcumin solution with concentration of 1 mg/mL;
0.5mL of curcumin solution is added into 45 mL SACD solution to avoid light, and 300: 300 rpm is stirred for reaction.
The result shows that: because SACD has extremely strong water solubility, curcumin is in a completely dissolved state after being loaded in the SACD, and the release effect of the curcumin in the in-vitro digestion process cannot be further explored.
Comparative example 8
The SACD of example 1 was modified to be the cyclodextrin derivative octenyl succinate cyclodextrin ester (OSACD) (having a similar branching group as SACD and expected to be used in food);
the preparation method of the cyclodextrin derivative octenyl succinic acid cyclodextrin ester (OSACD) comprises the following steps:
dissolving beta-cyclodextrin into water to make the mass fraction of the beta-cyclodextrin be 10%, and stirring the beta-cyclodextrin at 50 ℃ and 300 rpm for 2 h; then, an ethanol dilution (4-fold dilution) of octenyl succinic anhydride was added dropwise to the solution, the process was completed within 2h, and the reaction system ph=8.5 was controlled with a 3% NaOH solution; after the pH value of the system is constant, 3% hydrochloric acid solution is used for adjusting the pH value of the reaction system to 6.5; drying the obtained mixture, then fully washing with ethanol, and drying again to obtain a product OSACD;
The others remain the same as in example 1.
The result shows that: OSACD cannot form a complex with CS, cannot be used to load curcumin, nor can it be further explored for their controlled release effect during digestion in vitro.
Comparative example 9
The curcumin loading step in example 1 was adjusted to synchronize encapsulation during nanoparticle formation, as follows:
1 g CS was dissolved in 100 mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give CS solution;
1 g SACD was dissolved in 100mL pH =5.3 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer to give SACD solution;
dispersing curcumin in absolute ethyl alcohol to obtain curcumin solution with concentration of 1 mg/mL;
Slowly adding the SACD solution into (50 mL/min) CS solution, and stirring 400/rpm to react 20/min to obtain SACD/CS self-assembly solution;
Adding 0.5 mL curcumin solution into 400 mL absolute ethanol, slowly dripping (3 mL/min) the curcumin-containing ethanol solution into SACD/CS self-assembly solution, and continuing stirring with 400 rpm for 1h to promote particle formation; after the reaction, centrifugally collecting the Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers in the solution, washing the Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers with an ethanol water solution with the volume fraction of 67% for 3 times, and drying the washed Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers to obtain the Cur-SACD/CS nano-carriers (SACD: CS=5:5).
The result shows that: the loading rate of curcumin loaded in SACD/CS nano-carrier by adopting the synchronous encapsulation method is only about 3%, which proves that the synchronous encapsulation method is not suitable for loading curcumin in SACD/CS nano-particles.
While the invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, it is not limited thereto, and various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
