Resumo: O presente trabalho de doutorado está dividido em dois temas principais, um sobre o uso da tecnologia supercrítica para a formação de partículas e outro sobre o uso do ultrassom para a formulação de emulsões. A revisão da literatura sobre o estado da arte do emprego do CO2 supercrítico para formação de micro e nanopartículas e encapsulação mostrou as potencialidades do uso desta tecnologia. A unidade usada para os experimentos de micronização via tecnologia supercrítica foi desenvolvida pelo grupo de pesquisa e validada utilizando uma substância modelo, o sal de ibuprofeno sódico. Esse fármaco foi selecionado devido às informações sobre o sistema CO2-Ibuprofeno encontradas na literatura. O efeito das condições operacionais (temperatura, pressão, vazão da solução, vazão do CO2, tipo de injetor e concentração de ibuprofeno sódico na solução etanólica) no rendimento de precipitação, teor de solvente residual, morfologia das partículas e consumo energético por unidade de produto processado foi investigado utilizando o método split-plot. Sal de ibuprofeno sódico foi micronizado com sucesso via Antissolvente Supercrítico (SAS) utilizando a unidade construída. A vazão de CO2 influenciou estatisticamente no rendimento de precipitação, enquanto que, não houve influência das condições operacionais no teor de solvente residual das partículas micronizadas. Com a apropriada seleção das condições operacionais, foi possível a obtenção de partículas de ibuprofeno sódico com morfologia de folha, sendo ideal para os processos de compressão do fármaco, com baixo teor de solvente residual e alto rendimento de precipitação. Neste trabalho também foi explorado o uso do ultrassom para a formulação de emulsões, contendo extrato rico em 'delta'-tocotrienol, com o intuito de aumentar o valor agregado deste extrato obtido das sementes de urucum por extração supercrítica com dióxido de carbono. As sementes de urucum já são valiosas pela característica de produzir pigmentos, a bixina e a norbixina. Contudo, essas sementes também vêm adquirindo notoriedade por conter outras substâncias de importância para a saúde do homem, como tocoferóis, tocotrienóis e geranil geraniol. Devido à importância desses compostos bioativos, que apresentam propriedades antioxidade, hidratante e fotoprotetora, este estudo visou o desenvolvimento de métodos para formação de emulsões permitindo a proteção desses compostos instáveis às condições adversas, aumentando assim o valor agregado dos extratos obtidos das sementes de urucum. Extrato de raiz de ginseng brasileiro, rico em saponinas, foi utilizado como biossurfactante. Adicionalmente, emulsões foram obtidas utilizando um homogeneizador tipo dispersor de fase múltipla na mesma densidade energética que foi aplicada no ultrassom. A influência do processo de emulsificação, densidade energética, concentração do biosurfactante, tipo de óleo e de biosurfactante no tamanho de gota e estabilidade da emulsão foi investigada. Os resultados indicaram que o extrato rico em saponinas pode ser uma boa opção para formulação de emulsões para aplicação em produtos alimentícios. Miniemulsões, com tamanho de gota variando entre 0,35 e 0,83 µm, foram obtidas, sendo que os menores tamanhos de gota foram observados empregando o extrato de raiz de ginseng e o ultrassom. O processo de emulsificação influenciou estatisticamente a estabilidade das emulsões
Abstract: The presented doctoral work is divided into two main themes under which one is about the use of supercritical technology for particle formation and the another one about the use of ultrasound for emulsion formulation. A literature review about the state of the art in using supercritical CO2 for micro and nanoparticles formation and encapsulation showed the potential of this technology. A homemade experimental apparatuses constructed by our research group and used for micro and nanoparticles formation has been validated using a model substance, the ibuprofen sodium salt. This drug was selected due to the literature information of the CO2-Ibuprofen system. The effect of operational conditions (temperature, pressure, CO2 flow rate, solution flow rate, injector and concentration of ibuprofen sodium in the ethanol solution) on the precipitation yield, energy consumption per unit of manufactured product, residual solvent content and particle morphology have been investigated using split-plot designs. Ibuprofen sodium salt was successfully micronized by Antisolvent Supercritical (SAS) using the constructed unit. The CO2 flow rate influenced the precipitation yield at statistically significant levels meanwhile none operating parameters did influence the residual solvent content in the micronized particles. Selecting appropriate process conditions, it has been shown to facilitate the production of homogeneous sheet-like microparticles of ibuprofen particles, the best for tableting purposes, with low residual solvent and high precipitation yield. In this work, the use of ultrasound has been also explored for fabricating microemulsion of 'delta'-tocotrienol-rich oil in order to add value to these extracts obtained from annatto seeds using supercritical extraction (SFE). The main pigments of annatto seeds are bixin and norbixin, wich are valuable natural colorants. However, these seeds have acquired notoriety by containing other important substances for human health, such as tocopherols, tocotrienols and geranylgeraniol. Due to the bioactive compounds importance, which have moisturizers, sunscreens and antioxidant properties, this study aimed to develop methods for emulsion formulation enabling the protection of these unstable compounds to adverse conditions, thus increasing the value of extracts from annatto seeds. Saponin-rich extract from Brazilian ginseng roots was used as biosurfactant. Additionally, emulsion was generated through mechanical stirring by dispax Reactor at the same energy density than ultrasound. The influence of the emulsification process, energy density, oil type, biosurfactant type and biosurfactant concentration on the size and stability of the resulting droplets was investigated. The results indicated that saponin-rich extract might be an attractive biosurfactant choice for emulsion formulations for use in food and beverage products. Mini-emulsions were obtained in this work; their droplet sizes ranged from 0.35 to 0.83 µm, saponin-rich extract and ultrasound gave the smallest droplet size. The emulsification process significantly affected the emulsion stability values

Full textThis work describes the isolation, identification and structural elucidation of chemical constituents from inflorescences and leaves of Iryanthera sagotiana (Myristicaceae) and from inflorescences and pericarps of I. lancifolia, collected in Amazon region. After extraction and partition with organic solvents and chromatographic fractionation, phytochemical analysis of inflorescences of I. sagotiana (Benth.) Warb. afforded four dihydrochalcones: 2\',4\'-dihydroxy-4,6\'dimethoxydihydrochalcone (I); 2\',4\',6\'-trihydroxy-4-methoxy-dihydrochalcone; and the new 2\',4,4\'-trihydroxy-6\'-methoxy-dihydrochalcone (II) and 2\',4\'-dihydroxy- 4-methoxy-6\'-glucopyranosyl-dihydrochalcone. Benzaldehyde, dihydro-p-cumaric acid besides two glycosylated flavonols: afzelin and quercitrin and four glycosylated flavanonols: engeletin, isoengeletin, astilbin and isoastilbin were also isolated and identified. Leaves of I. sagotiana yielded dihydrochalcones I, II and the new dimer 3\',3\"\'-bis-2\',4\',6\'-trihydroxy-4-methoxydihydrochalcone in addition to afzelin, quercitrin, engeletin and astilbin. Pericarps of I. lancifolia Ducke afforded, after fractionation procedures, dihydrochalcones I e 2\',4-dihydroxy-4\',6\'-dimethoxy-dihydrochalcone, which has not been reported in literature yet, as well as three new flavonolignoids: rel (1\"R,2\"R,3\"S)-3\'-(1\",4\"-di-p-hydroxyphenyl-2\",3\"dimethylbutyl)-2\',4\'-dihydroxy-4,6\'-dimethoxydihydrochalcone (III); rel (1\"R,2\"S,3\"R)-3\'-(1\",4\"-di-p-hydroxyphenyl-2\",3\"-dimethylbutyl)-2\',4\'-dihydroxy-4,6\'-dimethoxydihydrochalcone (IV) e 5\'-(1\",4\"-di-p-hydroxyphenyl-2\",3\"dimethylbutyl)-2\',6\'-dihydroxy-4,4\'-dimethoxy-dihydrochalcone. Three new polyketide lactones were also isolated: (2S,3S,4S)-2-(7-dodecenyl)-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-butanolide, rel (2S,3R,4S)-2-(7\'-dodecenyl)-3-hydroxy-4-methylbutanolide e 2-dodecyl-3-hydroxy-4-methyl-but-2-enolide, besides tocotrienol 2,8-dimethyl-2-(4,8,12-trimethyl-3,7,11-tridecatrienyl)-6-cromanol and lignan (8R,T\'S,8\'S)-4,4\'-dihydroxy-2, 7\'-cyclo1ignan. From inflorescences of I. lancifolia, dihydrochalcone I, flavonolignoids III e IV, tocotrienol and the steroid 3-β-O-β-D-galactopyranosylsitosterol were isolated. Structural elucidation of the isolated compounds were based on spectrometric methods: MS, 1H and 13C NMR (PND and DEPT 135°), bidimensional NMR techniques (HOMOCOSY e HETERO-COSY) as well as NOE experiments. Acetylation and epoxidation reactions were carried out in order to get more informative derivatives. Antioxidant activities of afzelin, quercitrin, flavonolignoid IV and tocotrienol were evaluated in comparison with the antioxidant activity of vitamin E, using the inhibition of autoxidation of brain homogenates as a experimental model. The antioxidant capacity was measured by malondialdehyde (MDA) production and the necessary concentration to inhibit 50% of autoxidation (Q12) was calculated. The following values of Q1/2 were obtained for afzelin, quercitrin, flavonolignoid, tocotrienol and vitamin E, respectively: 62,30; 2,29; 4,83; 1,08 e 11,20 µM.

Resumo: A busca por produtos naturais que apresentem elevado grau de pureza tem impulsionado pesquisas por processos de extração e, preferencialmente, que não agridam o meio ambiente. Assim, processos de extração com fluido supercrítico (SFE ¿ Supercritical Fluid Extraction) vêm ganhando espaço por propiciar extratos diferenciados. O resíduo obtido da SFE é a matriz sólida livre do extrato de interesse, sendo que esse resíduo pode ser utilizado como matéria-prima em outros processos. Atualmente há grande interesse também em processos que utilizem integralmente a matéria-prima, minimizando a produção de resíduo, e garantindo uma produção mais diversificada oriunda de uma mesma matéria-prima, mas não se pode desconsiderar o processo industrial, e para isso, é necessário desenvolver processos que possam ser integrados sem perder a continuidade da produção, mesmo que o processo, por definição, seja intitulado pseudocontínuo. Para a implementação da SFE em escala industrial uma opção é a operação pseudocontínua de extração com CO2 supercrítico (ScCO2), para que isso seja possível é necessário que a unidade de extração possua no mínimo n+1 extratores, tal que n seja um número inteiro positivo. Então, neste trabalho foi estudada a obtenção de dois tipos de extratos em operação pseudocontínua: (1) óleo volátil de cravo-da-índia, para a validação do processo de extração em modo pseudocontínuo e (2) extrato rico em tocotrienóis de sementes de urucum. Nos dois casos as matrizes vegetais após a SFE podem ser utilizadas para obtenção de outros produtos. No caso do urucum, as sementes desengorduradas possuem grande quantidade de bixina, a qual tem grande aceitabilidade no mercado devido ao seu poder corante, e por isso, utilizou-se esse resíduo como matéria-prima para a obtenção de bixina, promovendo, uma integração de processo. Ademais, o resíduo da extração da bixina e o material lignocelulósico obtido após a SFE do cravo-da-índia podem ser hidrolisados a alta pressão catalisada ou não por CO2 para produzir biopolímeros úteis para serem utilizados na fabricação de nanoestruturas porosas. Para que o processo pseudocontínuo pudesse ser desenvolvido foi necessário o conhecimento atual da área supercrítica, principalmente a nível regional (América Latina e Brasil), além da necessidade de entender as limitações que as diferentes técnicas de extração apresentam para as diferentes classes de compostos de interesse. Então o processo de extração pseudocontínuo foi avaliado, e se mostrou eficaz, permitindo aproveitamento do tempo, pois durante o período de carga e descarga de um leito extrativo o outro estava em período de extração. Deste modo, houve a manutenção de ao menos um extrator em período de extração, caracterizando-se assim a operação pseudocontínua. A extração pseudocontínua do óleo de cravo-da-índia apresentou uma taxa média 3,6 vezes maior que o processo em batelada. A manutenção da razão S/F e do tempo de extração iguais pode ser usada satisfatoriamente para mudança de escala para o cravo e o urucum, ao se utilizar extratores de relação Hb/Db distintas. Por fim, a composição química do óleo de cravo-da-índia foi distinta, sendo então aconselhado uma avaliação prévia dessa composição química antes de definir qual a relação Hb/Db será utilizada
Abstract: The demand for natural products with high purity is promoting studies focused on extraction processes that avoid environmental damages. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) processes are gaining emphasis because they afford the extraction of selective compounds when compared with conventional techniques. The residue from SFE is the solid matrix free of target compounds; this residue can be a raw material in other processes. Recently, the appeal for green technologies and the searching for integral use of raw materials are receiving attention. These green technologies minimize the residue generation and promote a diversified production of bioactive compounds from the same raw material. Regarding the industrial scale, integrated processes with continuous productive lines are needed, even that in some cases the processes are named pseudo continuous. Thus, the pseudo continuous extraction using supercritical CO2 (ScCO2) is an important issue for implementing SFE processes in industrial scales. To make it possible, the extraction equipment needs to contain at least n+1 extractors, where n should be a positive integer number. Based on these aspects, we performed in this study the pseudo continuous extraction of two classes of compounds: (1) volatile oil from clove buds for validating the process and (2) tocotrienol rich-extracts from annatto seeds. In both cases the material from SFE can be used to obtain other products. Defatted annatto seeds contain bixin, a coloring pigment that finds several applications. Then, we selected annatto to obtain bixin by using process integration. Furthermore, the residue from the extraction of bixin and the lignocellulosic fraction from the extraction of clove compounds can be hydrolyzed applying high pressure. The reaction can be catalyzed with CO2 to produce biopolymers useful for manufacturing porous nanostructures. To become the pseudo continuous process feasible, we evaluated the information available on the scientific community, especially in Latin America and Brazil. With this search, we could find some limitations about extracting different classes of compounds. Then, we performed the proposed operation, and it yielded good results with respect to optimizing the time. While one bed was in extraction step, the other was in charge/discharge step, characterizing the pseudo continuous extraction mode. In this case, at least one bed was maintained in extraction step along the time. The pseudo continuous extraction of clove oil presented an extraction rate 3.6-fold higher when compared with batch extraction. Besides, process scale up using the studied raw materials might be accomplished by maintaining the S/F ratio equal (for a fixed time) in different Hb/Db ratios. Finally, we observed significant difference (5 % of probability) in the chemical composition of clove oil obtained in both extractors. An evaluation of the oil composition is needed to define the suitable Hb/Db ratio for extraction processes

Full textExcessive fibroblast expansion and extracellular matrix deposition are key events for the development of bowel stenosis in Crohn’s disease patients. Tocotrienols are vitamin E compounds with proven in vitro antifibrogenic effects on rat pancreatic fibroblasts. We aimed at investigating the effects of tocotrienols on human intestinal fibroblast proliferation, apoptosis, autophagy, and synthesis of ECM. Intestinal fibroblasts isolated from patients with Crohn’s disease were treated with tocotrienol-rich fraction from palm oil. Tocotrienols significantly reduced proliferation, enhanced cell death by promoting apoptosis and autophagy. Fibroblast apoptosis, but not autophagy, was prevented by the pan-caspase inhibitor zVAD-fmk, whereas both types of cell death were prevented when the mitochondrial permeability transition pore was blocked by cyclosporin A, demonstrating a key role of the mitochondria in these processes. TRF diminished procollagen type I and laminin γ production these cells. Transforming growth factor-β plays a key role in matrix deposition during fibrosis. Treatment of intestinal fibroblasts with tocotrienol rich fraction prevents Smad3 phosporylation induced by transforming growth factor-β and reduces collagen type 1 and 3 production by these cells. Besides, in a rat model of intestinal fibrosis, treatment with tocotrienols reduces diarrhea, rectal bleeding and weight loss, as well as levels of colonic tumor necrosis factor-α and vimentin expression demonstrating that this compound has anti-inflammatory effects in vivo.

Resumo: O presente trabalho teve como principal objetivo avaliar a influência da aplicação de ultrassom na extração de óleo de semente de maracujá com CO2 supercrítico, focando no rendimento da extração, na cinética do processo, conteúdo de tocoferóis e tocotrienóis, perfil de ácidos graxos, e atividade sequestrante do radical DPPH do óleo, usando como matéria-prima sementes de maracujá misturadas com polpa provenientes da indústria de processamento da fruta. Com esse intuito, a metodologia de superfície de resposta foi empregada, partindo como base de um planejamento experimental de tipo composto central para três fatores. Os fatores avaliados foram temperatura (38; 40; 45; 50 e 52°C), pressão (13; 16; 21; 26 e 29 MPa) e potência de ultrassom (0; 160; 400; 640 e 800 W). Os extratos obtidos apresentaram alto porcentagem de ácidos graxos poli-insaturados (aproximadamente 67%) e teor de tocoferóis e tocotrienóis (entre 60 e 90 mg/100g óleo), atividade sequestrante do radical DPPH (entre 1,8 e 2,6 mg TE/g óleo) que demonstrou correlação com o conteúdo total de tocoferóis e tocotrienóis (r = +0,872). A análise de polifenóis totais não conseguiu detectar a presença de polifenóis nos extratos. A aplicação de ultrassom na menor potência (160 W) resultou vantajosa, gerando incrementos de até 29% no rendimento de SFE. Este efeito foi registrado na temperatura de 40 °C e pressão de 16 MPa. O modelo de Sovová (1994) mostrou-se adequado para descrever o comportamento da cinética de extração, permitindo avaliar os parâmetros ajustados. Quando foi evidenciado grande incremento no rendimento da SFE, decorrente da aplicação do ultrassom, os parâmetros cinéticos foram modificados, sendo o tempo da etapa CER maior, junto com o coeficiente de transferência de massa da fase fluida, houve diminuição da proporção de extrato de difícil acesso. As imagens obtidas por microscopia eletrônica de varredura com fonte de emissão de campo (FESEM) demonstraram efeitos de atrito e menor tamanho de partículas quando o ultrassom foi aplicado
Abstract: The present work had as main objective the evaluation of the effect of the application of ultrasound in the extraction of passion fruit seed oil using supercritical CO2, on the global extraction yield, the process kinetics, the tocopherol and tocotrienol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity, using as raw material passion fruit seeds mixed with pulp, a byproduct of the pulp processing industry. To accomplish that, the response surface methodology was used. The evaluated factors were: temperature (38; 40; 45; 50 and 52 °C), pressure (13; 16; 21; 26 and 29 MPa) and ultrasound power (0; 160; 640 and 800 W). Fatty acids composition, total polyphenolic content, identification and quantification of tocopherols and tocotrienols and the antioxidant activity were evaluated on the extracts, which resulted rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (about 67%) and tocopherols and tocotrienols (between 60 and 90 mg/100g oil), of high antioxidant activity (between 1,8 to 2,6 mgTE/g oil) that shown correlation with the tocopherol and tocotrienol total content (r = +0,872). The total polyphenol analysis was not able to detect the presence of polyphenols in the extracts. The application of low power ultrasound (160 W) resulted advantageous; the SFE global yield improvement achieved 29%. This effect was registered at a temperature of 40 °C and pressure of 16 MPa. The model of Sovová (1994) was adequate to describe the extraction kinetics behavior, and it was possible to evaluate the adjusted parameters. When a great increase of SFE yield was achieved due to the ultrasound application, the kinetic parameters were modified, being the CER time and the fluid phase mass transfer coefficient increased, also showing reduction of solute ratio inside the cells. . The images obtained by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) demonstrated mechanical damage effects and smaller particle size when ultrasound was applied

Resumo: Os óleos vegetais, em sua grande maioria, quando destinados ao consumo humano necessitam passar pelas etapas de refino, visando à retirada de substâncias indesejáveis. Das etapas do refino, a desacidificação ou retirada de ácidos graxos livres é a mais importante e normalmente é realizada pelo método químico ou físico. Uma alternativa para a desacidificação é a extração líquido-líquido ou refino com solvente. Nesse processo ocorrem reduções significativas de perda de óleo neutro, além de ser conduzida à temperatura ambiente e pressão atmosférica, reduzindo custos energéticos. O óleo vegetal resultante apresenta teores aceitáveis de ácidos graxos livres, sabor e odor brando e redução das perdas de compostos minoritários desejáveis como os tocoferóis e tocotrienóis (tocóis), que são antioxidantes naturais presentes nos óleos vegetais. Com base no exposto, o objetivo desse trabalho é a determinação de dados experimentais de equilíbrio líquido-líquido de sistemas graxos, com ênfase na distribuição de tocoferóis e tocotrienóis. Os sistemas graxos estudados foram óleo de soja degomado + ácido linoléico comercial + etanol anidro, óleo de soja degomado + ácido linoléico comercial + etanol + água, óleo de farelo de arroz + ácido oléico comercial + etanol anidro e óleo de farelo de arroz refinado + ácido oléico comercial + etanol + água. Os experimentos foram realizados nas temperaturas de 298,15 K, 313,15 K e 323,15 K. A partir dos resultados obtidos, verificou-se que a solubilidade mútua do óleo vegetal + solvente (etanol anidro ou etanol + água) e o coeficiente de distribuição dos tocóis foram afetados pela temperatura, concentração de ácidos graxos livres e presença de água. Quanto maior a temperatura e teor de ácidos graxos livres, maior o coeficiente de distribuição dos tocóis devido ao aumento da solubilidade entre os componentes do sistema. Em contrapartida, quando adicionado água ao etanol, o coeficiente de distribuição dos tocóis diminui, fazendo com que eles fiquem mais retidos na fase oleosa
Abstract: Vegetable oils, mostly, when for human consumption, need to be refined, with the objective of removal of undesirable substances. Deacidification or free fatty acid removal is the most important step and it is usually performed by physical or chemical method. An alternative to deacidification is the liquid-liquid extraction or solvent refining. In this process, significant reductions of loss of neutral oil occur, and it is conducted at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, reducing energy cost. The resulting vegetable oil has acceptable levels of free fatty acids, mild taste and odor and reduction in the losses of desirable minor compounds, such as tocopherols and tocotrienols (tocols), which are natural antioxidants present in vegetable oils. Based on the exposed, the objective of this study is the determination of experimental data for liquid-liquid equilibrium of fatty systems, with emphasis on the distribution of tocopherols and tocotrienols. The fatty systems studied were composed by degummed soybean oil + commercial linoleic acid + anhydrous ethanol, degummed soybean oil + commercial linoleic acid + ethanol + water, refined rice bran oil + commercial oleic acid + anhydrous ethanol and refined rice bran oil + commercial oleic acid + ethanol + water. The experiments were performed at temperatures of 298.15 K, 313.15 K and 323.15 K. From the results obtained, it was found that the mutual solubility between vegetable oil and solvent (ethanol or ethanol + water) and the distribution coefficients of the tocols were affected by temperature, concentration of free fatty acids and the water presence. The higher the temperature and free fatty acid content, higher the distribution coefficients of tocols, due to the increase of solubility among the components of the systems. In contrast, the distribution coefficients of tocols decrease when water is added to ethanol, which represents the increase in retention of tocols in the oil phase

Several studies have shown that tocotrienols displayed the cholesterol lowering effect, antioxidative and anti-cancer activities. The study has not about antimelanogenesis mechanism (s) of δ-tocotrienol. So our study the effects of δT3 on skin-whitening agent and antimelanogenesis mechanism (s) in the first. In this study, our aims were (1) to evaluate the effect of α-, γ-, δ-tocotrienols (αT3, γT3, and δT3), and arbutin on cell viability, (2) to study the effects of δT3 and arbutin on the ROS production, and (3) to examine the effects of δT3 and arbutin on the melanin content, the expression of melanogenesis-related proteins such as tyrosinase, MC1R, Mitf, TRP (-1 and -2) and MAPK pathway in B16 melanoma cells. We found that δT3 possessed the best protective effect in B16 cells. Our data indicated that 20 μM δT3, but not arbutin, significantly decreased the generation of ROS, as a specific inhibitor of melanin production and reduced the expression of tyrosinase, MC1R, Mitf, TRP (-1 and -2) mRNA. Cells treated with δT3, and also markedly up-regulated the activation and phosphorylation of ERK kinases, down-regulated the phosphorylation of p38 kinase, and reduced melanin synthesis. These results suggest that δT3 performed well in both melanogenesis inhibition and antioxidation.

HMG-CoA reductase is the rate-controlling enzyme of the mevalonate pathway, the metabolic pathway produces cholesterol. γ-Tocotrienol and farnesol has the similar chemical structure and both of them promote the degradation of HMG-CoA reductase. In this study, human hepatoma HepG2 cell line was used to investigate how γ-tocotrienol inactivate HMG-CoA reductase and reduce the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Red yeast rice contains several compounds collectively known as monacolins, substances known to inhibit cholesterol synthesis as well. One of these, monacolin K is a potent inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, and is also known as mevinolin or lovastatin. Western blot assay showed that γ-tocotrienol inhibited HMG-CoA reductase protein expression. γ-Tocotrienol and monacolin K were found to decrease total cholesterol in HepG2 cell in a dose dependent manner. γ-Tocotrienol treatment was found to inhibit the translocation of Ras inactivate in HepG2 cell by using confocal microscopy. Taken together, these data suggest that γ-tocotrienol inhibit isoprenylation, and leading to Ras inactivation, subsequently inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase protein expression, and reducing the biosynthesis of cholesterol.

Find full textColorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in the United States and multiple modifiable factors contribute to colorectal carcinogenesis. Gut microbiota are believed to play key roles in colon cancer development. Dietary factors may modulate gut microbiota composition, which may potentially have impact on carcinogenesis. Thus, it is reasonable to develop dietary interventions to effectively prevent colorectal cancer development through alteration of gut microbiota. In this thesis, the first objective is to evaluate the effect of vitamin E forms and metabolites, i.e., δ-tocotrienol (δTE), γ-tocotrienol (γTE) and δTE-13’-COOH (δTE-13’), respectively, on gut microbiota in mice. Healthy male balb/c mice were supplemented with a δTE/γTE mixture or δTE-13’ by gavage for two weeks, while control mice received soybean oil. We isolated DNAs from fecal samples and used 16S rRNA gene sequencing to evaluate the impact of these compounds on gut microbiota compositions. Further, we also examined the effect on short chain fatty acids (SCFAs). We observed that supplementation of δTE-13’ increased microbial richness using the Faith index. On the other hand, supplementation did not separate the microbial communities from the control group. But, these compounds managed to alter the relative abundances of several taxa that might present chemopreventive activities against colon cancer. Specifically, Desulfovibrio, a sulfur-reducing bacterium, was decreased after δTE/γTE supplementation. Eubacterium coprostanoligenes group, a group of microbes that can reduce circulating cholesterol, was increased after δTE/γTE supplementation. In addition, several members from the Lachnospiraceae family were elevated under δTE/γTE and δTE-13’ supplementation, and these microbes are known to produce SCFAs and maintain colonic health. However, the measurement of SCFAs showed that supplementation of δTE/γTE and δTE-13’ did not change SCFAs compared with controls. In the second project, I investigated anti-proliferative effects of combining δTE or δTE-13’ with sodium butyrate (NaBu) on human colorectal carcinoma HCT116 cells. Our data showed promising additive effects against cell growth. Collectively, these results indicate that δTE/γTE and δTE-13’ can modulate gut microbiota under healthy conditions, which provides insights into potential chemopreventive activities of these vitamin E forms. Our cell-based studies also showed additive anticancer effects of combining δTE or δTE-13’ with NaBu, which provides rationale to further develop combination of butyrate producers with vitamin E forms for cancer prevention.

Studies have shown that tocotrienols possess antioxidant, anti-lipid peroxidation, cholesterol lowering, reducing blood coagulating factor thromboxane B2 and anti-cancer activities. In this study, we examined the hepatoprotective effects of palm tocotrienol rich fraction (TRF) against carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced chronic liver damage in rats. Study was divided into five groups, namely groups one and two received normal saline without and with CCl4 respectively. Groups three, four and five received silymarin, TRF 25mg/kg (TRF-25), and TRF 50mg/kg (TRF-50) plus CCl4 respectively. Results showed that after 8 weeks of TRF-25 and TRF-50 treatment, TRF significantly reduced TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) , ALT (alanine aminotransferase) and AST (aspartate aminotransferase) levels, while increased the blood total antioxidant capacity, superoxidase dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) concentration in CCl4 induced liver injury groups. In addition, total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were noted to be significantly decreased in the TRF treated groups. These results suggest that TRF can effectively enhanced the antioxidant enzymes and reduced the level of ALT and AST. Taken together, this study concludes that TRF was able to protect liver against CCl4 induced liver injury in rats through enhancing the levels of antioxidant enzymes and decreasing ALT, AST and lipid peroxidation.

Tocotrienols of palm oil and rice bran oil have been shown to possess potent anticancer, lower blood pressure and cholesterol-lowering activities. In this study, our aims were (i) to evaluate the antiproliferative activities of α-, γ- and δ-tocotrienols (α-T3, γ-T3, and δ-T3), and α-tocopherol (αT) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, (ii) to study the effects of γT3 on the cell cycle distribution, ROS production and mitochondrial membrane potential, and (iii) to examine the apoptotic and the adipogenesis molecular mechanism (s) of action in 3T3-L1 cells. The results showed that γ-T3 was the most effective, with an IC50 value of 13.91 ± 0.25 μM. It effectiveness induced the 3T3-L1 cells apoptosis, caused ROS formation, collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential and cell cycle perturbation (S-phase arrest). At 20 μM, γ-T3 significantly increased the accumulation of the DNA fragmentation. Western blot data revealed that γ-T3 treatment increased the expression of active p53, CD95 (APO-1/CD95), and led to up-regulation of Bax and release cytochrome c from mitochondria to cytosol, as well as causing the caspase-3 activation, and PARP cleavage in a dose- and time-dependent pattern. Furthermore, γ-T3 did not affect the expression of JNK, p-JNK, p38, p-p38 and AMPK proteins, however it down-regulated the Akt, p-Akt, ERK, p-ERK, and PPAR-γ levels and up-regulated the expression of p-AMPK. These results suggest that γ-T3 has contributed to the potent antiproliferative activity and apoptosis in 3T3-L1 adipocytes through the CD95 (APO-1/CD95) system and the mitochondrial signaling transduction pathway.

Tocotrienols, members of the vitamin E family, are natural compounds only found in certain numbers of plant seeds; for example, wheat and nuts. Tocotrienols exhibit biological activities such as neuroprotective, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and cholesterol lowering properties. In this study, our aims were to examine the anti-proliferative and lipid accumulation effects of α-, γ- and δ-tocotrienols (αT3, γT3 and δT3) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and to study the energy and adipogenesis molecular mechanism (s) of action in 3T3-L1 cells. The results displayed that 30 μM γT3 was effective in inhibiting the cell proliferation. In addition, γT3 significantly reduced the lipid accumulation effect in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Western blot data showed that γT3 treatment up-regulated the expression of CD36, Sirt (1and 3), p-AMPK and LXRα proteins, but it down-regulated the expression of ACC, PPAR-γ and FAS. These results have demonstrated that γT3 possesses anti-proliferative and anti-adipogenic effects; its molecular mechanism of action could be through the modulation of the Sirt1, LXRα, p-AMPK and PPAR-γ signaling pathways.

Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) is a tropical and subtropical plant with high commercial value. In the field, there are relatively few understory species on the floor of litchi plants. Firstly, litchi leaves contain many natural product, and we have tried to isolate pure compounds in order to develop these compounds to be highly potential as a healthy food. Secondly, it is aiming to understand whether litchi plants may exhibit allelochemical potential. In part one, methanolic extracts of litchi leaves were subjected to column chromatography. Nine new tocotrienols compounds (Litchitocotrienol A~I), and four known compounds (4-hydroxybenzaldehye, procyanidin A2, (-)-epicatechin, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybisnbola-1,10-diene) were isolated and identified. These compounds exhibit anti-cancer and anti-oxidant activity. The above results of litchi leaves have the high potential to develop as anti-cancer healthy food. In part two of pot experiment the lithci leaves exhibited inhibitory effect on seedling growth of Bidens pilosa during the first 23 days. But the inhibitory effect was disappeared 35 days after. However, the inhibitory effect of leaf powder against B. pilosa was decreased in the sterilized soil, indicating that the sterilized soil might lose the microbial involvement leading the litchi leaves were not be add to degrade the products into allelochemical agent. The alleolchemical, 4-hydroxybenzaldehye, isolated in the litchi leaves exhibited inhibitory effects on radicle growth of B. pilosa at 1 mM in the bioassay. It is concluded that allelochemicals in litchi leaves may involve in the interaction between plants and microbes. Futher studies should clarify the interaction between litchi leaves with soil microorganisms.
