Green biosynthesis of rare DHA-phospholipids by lipase-catalyzed transesterification with edible algal oil in solvent-free system and catalytic mechanism study.

ABSTRACT: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-enriched phosphatidylcholine (PC) has received significant scientific attention due to the health benefits in food and pharmaceutical products. In this work, the edible algal oil rich in DHA-triacylglycerol (DHA-TAG) without pretreatment was first used as the DHA donor for the transesterification of phospholipids (PLs) to prepare three kinds of rare PLs, including DHA-PC, DHA-phosphatidylethanolamine (DHA-PE), and DHA-phosphatidylserine (DHA-PS). Here, 153 protein structures of triacylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) were virtually screened and evaluated by transesterification. PLA1 was the best candidate due to a higher DHA incorporation. Results showed that the transesterification of PC with DHA-TAG at 45°C and 0.7% water content (without additional water addition) could produce DHA-PC with 39.1% DHA incorporation at 30 min. The different DHA donors, including forms of fatty acid, methyl ester, and triglycerides, were compared. Molecular dynamics (MD) was used to illustrate the catalytic mechanism at the molecular level containing the diffusions of substrates, the structure-activity relationship of PLA1, and the effect of water content.

Project description:Population research on the intervention of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation in lactating women is in its infancy in China. This study investigated the effect of DHA supplementation on DHA concentrations in the breast milk of lactating women, and the intervention effect, with respect to different dietary patterns. In this trial, 160 healthy lactating women in Nanjing (30-50 days postpartum) were recruited and randomly divided into control (one placebo capsule of similar appearance per day) and supplement (one capsule with 200 mg of DHA from algal oil per day) groups for 8 weeks. Before and after the intervention, all subjects were asked to maintain basic information, maternal anthropometric parameters, breast milk (10-15 mL) sample collection, and a dietary survey using a food frequency questionnaire. The concentrations of DHA and other fatty acids in breast milk were detected using capillary gas chromatography. This study was completed by 137 subjects, with 60 in the control group and 77 in the supplement group. Compared with the DHA concentrations in the breast milk at enrollment, the absolute concentrations of the control group showed a significant decrease at the end of the trial (p = 0.037). In addition, after intervention, the absolute and relative DHA concentrations in the supplement group (10.07 mg/100 mL and 0.40%, respectively) were higher than those in the control group (7.57 mg/100 mL and 0.28%, respectively), being statistically significant (p = 0.012 and p = 0.001). Furthermore, the maternal diet in the supplement group was divided into four dietary patterns. Pattern 1 mainly included fruits and livestock meat. Pattern 2 was dominated by milk and its products, eggs, fish, shrimp and shellfish, and soybeans and its products. Pattern 3 chiefly comprised cereal and beans other than soybeans, potatoes, and nuts. Pattern 4 was high in poultry meat and low in cooking oils. The change in the absolute concentration of DHA in Pattern 3 was lower than that in other patterns (p < 0.05). In conclusion, DHA supplementation in lactating mothers increased breast milk DHA concentrations. The dietary pattern mainly characterized by cereal and beans other than soybeans, potatoes, and nuts may contribute to the poor intervention effect.
