Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biomedicine, and more specifically to a composition containing Omega3 and its use in promoting brain and nerve development. Background Technology
[0002] Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (Omega-3 PUFAs) are a class of bioactive substances that the human body cannot synthesize and must obtain from the diet. Their core members include alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Omega-3 PUFAs are essential nutrients for brain and nerve development. For example, DHA is a major structural component of neuronal cell membranes, accounting for 30-40% of the polyunsaturated fatty acids in the cerebral cortex. It can embed itself in the phospholipid bilayer, improving membrane fluidity, ensuring the conformational stability and normal function of neurotransmitter receptors, and accelerating nerve signal transduction. EPA reduces the production of pro-inflammatory factors by competing with metabolic enzymes, promotes the release of anti-inflammatory mediators, and reduces oxidative stress damage to neurons. Furthermore, Omega-3 PUFAs can promote BDNF expression, activate signaling pathways, regulate neuronal survival, differentiation, synapse formation and strengthening, enhance the long-term potentiation effect in the hippocampus, and support learning and memory functions. Walnut polypeptides, small-molecule bioactive peptides prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis of walnut proteins, exert effects on neuroprotection, cognitive enhancement, and nerve damage repair through mechanisms such as antioxidation, promoting neurotrophic function, and regulating synaptic plasticity. They represent a potential substance for nutritional intervention in brain and nerve health. Furthermore, CN119798368 also discloses that walnut polypeptides can cross the blood-brain barrier. Therefore, Omega-3 and walnut polypeptides show promising application prospects in brain and nerve development.
[0003] However, the bioavailability of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids is affected by factors such as source and dosage form, resulting in limited efficacy of single-drug intervention. Furthermore, walnut peptides are easily degraded in the complex in vivo environment, hindering their effectiveness. Most Omega-3 supplements are simply used in combination with Omega-3, often resulting in a synergistic effect where 1+1<2. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a compound that covalently links Omega-3 to supplements to overcome the technical challenges of single-drug Omega-3 intervention and the susceptibility of walnut peptides to degradation in the body, thereby improving the overall efficacy of the combination. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the above problems, the present invention provides a composition comprising a conjugate covalently linked to Omega3 and walnut polypeptide.
[0005] The amino acid sequence of the walnut polypeptide is shown in SEQ ID No. 1, and its specific preparation steps are as follows: 1. Walnut raw material pretreatment: After shelling the walnut kernels, dry them in a 60℃ constant temperature forced-air drying oven for 2-3 hours until the moisture content of the walnut kernels drops to 5%-8%; after drying, pulverize the walnut kernels with a high-speed universal pulverizer and pass them through a 40-mesh sieve to obtain coarse walnut powder; mix the coarse walnut powder with petroleum ether at a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:5 (g:mL), place the mixture in a stoppered conical flask, and defatt it with magnetic stirring in a 30℃ constant temperature water bath for 2 hours, stirring once every 30 minutes to promote oil dissolution; after defatting, filter and collect the filter residue; add petroleum ether to the filter residue again at a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:3, repeat the defatting once, and filter to obtain defatted walnut residue; place the defatted walnut residue in a fume hood, evaporate the petroleum ether at room temperature, pulverize it again and pass it through a 60-mesh sieve to obtain defatted walnut powder, and seal it for later use.
[0006] 2. Extraction and dissolution of walnut protein: Prepare 0.2 mol / L phosphate buffer (pH 7.0, for neutral enzymes) / (pH 8.5, for alkaline enzymes); mix defatted walnut powder with the above phosphate buffer at a material-to-liquid ratio of 1:15-1:20 (g:mL), place in an Erlenmeyer flask, and adjust the pH of the system to the optimal pH for the enzyme with 1 mol / L HCl or NaOH; place the Erlenmeyer flask in an ultrasonic cleaner and perform ultrasonic-assisted extraction at room temperature for 30 min (power 200W, frequency 40kHz) to disrupt the spatial structure of walnut protein and promote protein dissolution, thereby obtaining walnut protein extract.
[0007] 3. Enzymatic hydrolysis for preparing walnut polypeptides: Place the walnut protein extract in a constant temperature water bath and preheat to the optimal temperature of the enzyme (45-50℃ for neutral protease, 50-55℃ for alkaline protease), and keep warm for 10 minutes to ensure uniform temperature. Add neutral protease at 2%-4% of the walnut protein mass (enzyme-substrate ratio, E / S), and hydrolyze with magnetic stirring in a constant temperature water bath at 50℃ for 3 hours. During this period, monitor the pH of the system with a pH meter every 30 minutes. If the pH deviates from the optimal value, finely adjust it to the set value with 1mol / L HCl or NaOH. After the neutral protease hydrolysis is completed, raise the system temperature to 55℃, adjust the pH to 8.5, add alkaline protease at 1%-2% of the protein mass, and continue hydrolysis for 2 hours, for a total hydrolysis time of 5 hours. After hydrolysis, place the conical flask in a boiling water bath and heat for 10 minutes to completely inactivate the protease.
[0008] 4. Removal of impurities and crude extraction of enzymatic hydrolysate: After inactivation, the enzymatic hydrolysate is cooled to room temperature, transferred to centrifuge tubes, and placed in a high-speed refrigerated centrifuge. It is centrifuged at 8000 r / min and 4℃ for 20 min to remove insoluble residues. The supernatant is collected, which is the crude enzymatic hydrolysate of walnut polypeptides. The supernatant is filtered through medium-speed qualitative filter paper to further remove tiny suspended impurities, resulting in a clear polypeptide solution.
[0009] 5. Purification of Walnut Peptides: The clarified peptide solution was placed into a pretreated dialysis bag (molecular weight cutoff 3500 Da), the bag was sealed tightly, and dialyzed in a large amount of deionized water at 4°C with magnetic stirring. The deionized water was changed every 4 hours for 24 hours to remove free amino acids, inorganic salts, and small peptide fragments from the system. After dialysis, the purified peptide solution in the dialysis bag was collected. The purified peptide solution was transferred to a beaker and placed in an ice bath. Anhydrous ethanol was slowly added until the ethanol volume fraction of the system reached 70%, while stirring. The mixture was allowed to stand in an ice bath for 12 hours to allow the peptides to precipitate completely. After ethanol precipitation, the mixture was dialyzed at 6000 r / min and 4°C. Centrifuge for 15 min, collect the precipitate, which is the crude walnut polypeptide. Dissolve the crude walnut polypeptide in a small amount of deionized water to obtain a polypeptide aqueous solution, transfer it to a rotary evaporator, concentrate under reduced pressure at 40℃ to remove residual ethanol, and concentrate to 1 / 3-1 / 2 of the original volume to obtain a concentrated walnut polypeptide solution. Pour the concentrated polypeptide solution into a freeze-drying petri dish, spread it evenly (about 0.5-1 cm thick), place it in a freeze dryer, pre-freeze to -40℃ for 2 h, then turn on vacuum freeze-drying and freeze-dry for 24-36 h until the sample is completely dried into a loose white powder. Grind the dried powder into a fine powder using a mortar and pestle, pass it through an 80-mesh sieve to obtain a high-purity active walnut polypeptide product, seal it in a brown reagent bottle, store it in a refrigerator at 4℃ protected from light, and perform amino acid sequence determination.

[0028] Forty 3-week-old mice were randomly divided into four groups of 10 mice each: group A (saline), group B (DHA), group C (walnut polypeptide), and group D (DHA-walnut polypeptide). There were no significant differences in initial body weight and health status among the groups.
[0029] After 7 days of feeding, mice with abnormal health conditions were removed, ensuring 6 mice per group. Mice were then administered gavage according to the above groupings: Group A received saline, Group B received DHA, Group C received walnut peptides, and Group D received DHA-walnut peptides.
