Antioxidant activity and absorption of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside liposomes in GES-1 cells in vitro

摘要

The use of anthocyanins are limited by their chemical properties. Recent evidence suggests Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3 G) liposomes via the ethanol injection method exhibit improved stability. In the current study, the characterization and cell absorption of C3 G liposomes were explored via transmission electron microscopy and flow cytometry. The internalization of the C3 G liposomes across the gastric epithelial cell monolayer (GES-1 cells) were investigated. Results showed that the particle size and encapsulation efficiency were 234 +/- 9.35 nm and 75.0% +/- 0.001, respectively. The total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were used to evaluate the antioxidant activity of C3 G liposomes. The C3 G liposomes can obviously increased T-AOC and decreased the MDA content.Collectively, C3 G liposomes protected human GES-1 cells from gastric mucosal injury induced by H2O2 by activating the related antioxidant pathway. Our research could provide a new effective treatment strategy for the absorption of stomach drugs.
