Abstract

V originále

Yeast glucan particles (GPs) are promising agents for the delivery of biologically active compounds as drugs. GPs possess their own biological activities and can act synergistically with their cargo. This study aimed to determine how incorporating artemisinin, ellagic acid, (-)-epigallocatechin gallate, morusin, or trans-resveratrol into GPs affects their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential in vitro. Two different methods - slurry evaporation and spray drying - were used to prepare composites (GPs+ bioactive compound) and the anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties of the resultant products were compared. Several of the natural compounds showed the beneficial effects of being combined with GPs. The materials prepared by spray drying showed greater activity than those made using a rotary evaporator. Natural compounds incorporated into yeast GPs showed greater anti-inflammatory potential in vitro than simple suspensions of these compounds as demonstrated by their inhibition of the activity of transcription factors NF-kappa B/AP-1 and the secretion of the pro-inflammatory cytokine TNF alpha.
