Raw meat products are prone to light-induced oxidation, leading to quality deterioration. Astaxanthin (Asta) exhibits excellent antioxidant capabilities, but it is still unknown if it can inhibit muscle photooxidation. This study established a myoglobin (Mb) mediated water-washed muscle model to exploring the inhibitory ability of Asta. The results indicated that the higher peroxide values (PV) and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARs) in Mb-Light group than Mb group confirmed Mb's photosensitivity. Asta significantly reduced OxyMb-to-MetMb conversion, lowered PV/TBARs levels, and demonstrated superior anti-photooxidation efficacy over autooxidation, which was attributed to Asta's pronounced free radical scavenging capacity and singlet oxygen quenching ability. The quenching sites and process was further speculated by Density functional theory. Texture analyzer and GC-MS confirmed that Asta prevented muscle texture degradation, color loss and reduced photosensitive volatile compounds (hexanal/pentanal). These findings provide new insights into the potential of Asta to inhibit lipid oxidation in muscle tissues.
Objective:This study aimed to explore the copigmentation formula of purple corn anthocyanins.Methods:In this study,fructose,tannic acid,and pectin were used as co-pigmentation.The response surface method was used to optimize the co-pigmentation formula of purple corn anthocyanins,and the untreated purple corn was used as a control test.The anthocyanin components,color,texture,taste and antioxidant activity(DPPH free radical scavenging ability,ABTS free radical scavenging ability,and FRAP iron ion reducing ability)of purple corn after different treatments were determined.Results:19%fructose,0.07%tannic acid,and 1.9%pectin had the best copigmentation effect.Compared with the control group,the contents of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside,geranium-3-O-glucoside,and peony-3-O-glucoside in purple corn increased by 77.64%,64.82%,and 54.75%,respectively.The total anthocyanin content increased by 67.98%.The L*value,b*value,and △E value of color decreased,while the a*value increased.Hardness,adhesiveness,and chewing type increased,while elasticity and cohesion decreased.The bitter,astringent,and astringent aftertastes differ slightly,as do the sour,sweet,salty,umami,bitter,and umami aftertastes.In the mass concentration range of 0.02~0.10 mg/mL,the DPPH free radical scavenging ability,ABTS free radical scavenging ability and FRAP iron ion reducing ability of purple corn anthocyanins were 39%~79%,54%~74%and 27%~67%,respectively.Conclusion:The co-pigmentation effect of 19%fructose,0.07%tannic acid,and 1.9%pectin on purple corn anthocyanins was the best.
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), or dihydrogen sulfane (H2Sn), acts as a signal molecule through the beneficial mechanism of persulfidation, known as the post-translational transformation of cysteine residues to persulfides. We previously reported that Glutathione (GSH) could regulate enzyme activity through S-desulfurization or glutathionylation of residues to generate protein-SG or protein-SSG, releasing H2S. However, little is known about the mechanisms by which H2Sn and GSH affect the disulfide bonds. In this study, we provide direct evidences that H2Sn and GSH modify the sulfhydryl group on Cys272, which forms disulfide bonds in acetylcholinesterase (AChE), to generate Cys-SSH and Cys-SSG, respectively. Glutathionylation of disulfide is a two-step reaction based on nucleophilic substitution, in which the first CS bond is broken, then the SS bond is broken to release H2S. H2Sn and GSH controlled self-breathing motion in enzyme catalysis by disconnecting specific disulfide bonds and modifying cysteine residues, thereby regulating AChE activity. Here, we elucidated H2Sn and GSH mechanisms on disulfide in the AChE system and proposed a self-breathing control theory induced by H2Sn and GSH. These theoretical findings shed light on the biological functions of H2Sn and GSH on sulfhydryl and disulfide bonds and enrich the theory of enzyme activity regulation.
Lipid oxidation significantly contributes to muscle deterioration, with heme protein oxidation playing a crucial role in this process. This study investigated the inhibition of heme protein oxidation by Maillard reaction products (MRPs) using a washed muscle model combining washed carp with myoglobin (Mb). Protein oxidation products, protein texture, and lipid oxidation levels were assessed. Results showed that metmyoglobin (MetMb) is a primary driver of lipid oxidation in meat, likely due to Mb oxidation, exposing hydrophobic groups that bind to lipids. MRPs at concentrations of 0.5% and 1% effectively inhibited Mb oxidation. Specifically, treatment with 1% MRPs reduced MetMb formation by 15.38%, protein carbonyl content by 6.53%, hydroxyl radical content by 20.37%, protein aggregation by 40.81%, and particle size by 36.95% during later storage stages, thereby preserving Mb stability. In the Mb-mediated oxidation model, 1% MRPs inhibited the formation of primary and secondary oxidative metabolites by 59.47% and 68.19%, respectively, while maintaining muscle tissue texture integrity. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The antioxidation of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) improves the stability of common carp. By inhibiting the autoxidation of myoglobin and lipid, MRPs help preserve the texture and color of fish muscle while extending its shelf life. This study provides a valuable reference for effectively controlling lipid oxidation in refrigerated fish products and enhancing their overall quality.
Numerous secondary metabolites in medicinal food homology plants such as Allium inhibit the activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), but the current understanding of the inhibition mechanism is limited. In this study, we employed ultrafiltration, spectroscopic, molecular docking, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS/MS) techniques to investigate the inhibition mechanism of AChE by garlic organic sulfanes, including diallyl sulfide (DAS), diallyl disulfide (DADS), and diallyl trisulfide (DATS). The results of UV-spectrophotometry and ultrafiltration experiments showed the inhibition of AChE activity by DAS and DADS was reversible (competitive inhibition), but inhibition by DATS was irreversible. Molecular fluorescence and molecular docking indicated DAS and DADS changed the positions of key amino acids inside the catalytic cavity through hydrophobic interactions with AChE. By using MALDI-TOF-MS/MS, we found DATS irreversibly inhibited AChE activity by opening disulfide-bond switching of disulfide bond 1 (Cys-69 and Cys-96) and disulfide bond 2 (Cys-257 and Cys-272) in AChE, as well as by covalently modifying Cys-272 in disulfide bond 2 to generate AChE-SSA derivatives (strengthened switch). This study provides a basis for further exploration of natural AChE inhibitors using organic active substances in garlic and presents a hypothesis of U-shaped spring force arm effect based on the disulfide bond-switching reaction of DATS that can be used to evaluate the stability of disulfide bonds in proteins.

Post-translational transformation of cysteine residues to persulfides, known as protein S-sulfhydration or persulfidation, is a beneficial H2S signaling mechanism. In this paper, we found that GSH is bound to active cysteine sites of protein by S-desulfurization, which is a new covalent modification mechanism of protein, thus regulating catalytic activity. Here, we provide direct evidence that GSH modifies the reactive cysteine residues of four enzymes (alliinase/D-LDH/ADH/G6PD) and generates protein-SG or protein-SSG derivatives by S-desulfurization. S-desulfurization, α-carbon nucleophilic substitution or thiol-disulfide exchange occurs and H2S is released as a by-product. S-desulfurization is the opposite of persulfidation in terms of H2S production/consumption and enzyme inhibition/mitigation. Here, we elucidated the GSH mechanisms and H2S mechanisms in the enzyme-metabolite system and the beneficial roles of persulfidation and S-desulfurization. These theoretical findings are now shedding light on understanding GSH and H2S molecular functions and providing new theoretical basis for them in cell signaling pathways.

采用顶空固相微萃取-气相质谱联用(SPME-GC-MS)技术检测西兰花挥发性成分,应用自动质谱退卷积定性系统(AMDIS)进行数据分析,并结合保留指数进行定性.首先对SPME萃取头进行筛选,然后通过剪切、常温研磨、低温研磨和灭酶研磨4种样品制备方式,考察西兰花内源酶对其主要挥发性物质形成的影响.结果显示:65μm PDMS/DVB在萃取西兰花挥发性成分的数量及种类上优于75μm CAR/PDMS和100μm PDMS.剪切组主要成分为酯类、醇类和硫化物,分别占检出成分的42.11%,41.22%,3.53%;常温研磨组为醇类、硫化物和酯类,分别占51.58%,27.21%,16.19%;低温研磨组为醛类、醇类和硫化物,分别占79.81%,3.5%,3.44%;灭酶研磨组为醛类、呋喃,分别占19.91%和6.96%,结果表明由于内源酶充分作用,所以常温研磨下形成醛、醇、酯及硫化物等西兰花主要成分种类最多,其次是剪切组;低温和加热抑制了酶的作用,使低温研磨和灭酶研磨组的挥发性成分种类受限,特别是灭酶过程挥发性损失较大.此外,二甲基二硫含量,常温研磨>低温研磨>剪切>灭酶研磨;二甲基三硫含量,常温研磨>低温研磨,剪切组和灭酶研磨未检出(均P<0.01),说明西兰花中二甲基二硫/三硫主要是含硫氨基酸等前体物质通过酶催化作用产生.
The contents of glucose, N-epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), and two main intermediate products, glyoxal (GO) and fructoselysine (FL), were determined, and the corresponding mathematical models were established to investigate the formation and kinetics of CML in a glucose-lysine model heated at 80 degrees C for 50 h. The effects of oleic acid (OA), temperature, and energy on CML formation were considered in the kinetic models. The mathematical modeling results suggested that glucose consumption was incomplete at 50 h and 80 degrees C. Although OA contributed to the formation of GO, CML was primarily formed from FL via the Maillard reaction, not from GO. The Arrhenius model was used to deduce that FL is the main pathway in the glucose-lysine-OA system because 88.39 kJ/mol of activation energy via the GO pathway was significantly higher than the 73.97 kJ/mol of activation energy via the FL pathway, and because the rate constant k(4) was higher than k(3) at different temperatures. OA (50 mmol/L) acted as a catalyst as well as a reactant in CML formation. This is the first study in which CML formation has been determined by both multi-response modeling and kinetic models based on glycation and lipid oxidation.

Three types of main pigments, lycopene, Lutein, and beta-carotene were extracted from tomato and analyzed by chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). The inhibitory effects of the three types of pigments on the formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in a heated model system at 65 degrees C were then studied by determining glyoxal, N-epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), pentosidine, and fluorescent AGE assays. Three pigments showed good inhibition to glycation products. SDS electrophoresis images also proved that pigments can significantly inhibit cross-linked AGE formation in a time-dependent manner. Lutein and lycopene displayed the better inhibition activity on CML and fluorescent AGE than beta-carotene (p < .05), especially lycopene showed almost twofolds stronger inhibitory activity on pentosidine and CML than beta-carotene, this results were attributed to its efficient inhibition to active oxygen and open-loop structure of thermal resistance. Many studies reported that plant-derived antioxidants are currently attracting greater research interest given their relative safety and comparable efficacy. Carotenoids are important natural pigments that contain a large number of conjugated double bonds, which give them good resistance to oxidation. Our results demonstrated that some important components of carotenoids could significantly inhibit cross-linked AGEs formation in a time-dependent manner. Using them, we successfully reduced the generation rate of AGEs in baked cookies, the inhibition rate of tomato pigment (2.74 mg/g) on CML and fluorescence-AGEs were 26.89% and 45.86%, respectively, in homemade cookies. Thus, tomato pigments or carotenoids as additives in food processing can effectively reduce the formation of AGEs and control the quality of products without affecting the value of commodities. Practical applications
The qualities and aroma of fresh tomato juice treated b≥a high pressure treatment (25℃ and 400 MPa for 30 min) and a thermal treatment (100℃ for 5 min) were compared after 3 months storage. The total number of colonies, mold and≥east of fresh tomato juice treated with the high pressure treatment met the National Food Safet≥ Criteria after two month storage. During the two months storage, the pH value, PPO activit≥, and POD activit≥ of high pressure treated fresh tomato juice decreased while the vitamin C content decreased b≥ about 24% . However, the vitamin C content of fresh tomato juice treated b≥ the thermal treatment was reduced b≥ about 96% . After the high pressure treatment, the aroma of the fresh tomato juice was similar to that of the original tomato aroma, while that was deteriorated after the thermal treatment. Therefore, the high pressure treatment maintained the qualities and aroma of the fresh tomato juice after 2 months storage.
