Effect of β-sheet crystalline content on mass transfer in silk films

The material properties of silk are favorable for drug delivery due to the ability to control material structure and morphology under ambient, aqueous processing conditions. Mass transport of compounds with varying physical-chemical characteristics was studied in silk fibroin films with control of β-sheet crystalline content. Two compounds, vitamin B12 and fluorescein isothiocynate (FITC) labeled lysozyme were studied in a diffusion apparatus to determine transport through silk films. The films exhibited size exclusion phenomenon with permeability coefficients with contrasting trends with increases in β-sheet crystallinity. The size exclusion phenomenon observed with the two model compounds was characterized by contrasting trends in permeability coefficients of the films as a function of β-sheet crystallinity. The diffusivity of the compounds was examined in the context of free volume theory. Apart from the β-sheet crystallinity, size of the compound and its interactions with silk influenced mass transfer. Diffusivity of vitamin B12 was modeled to define a power law relationship with β-sheet crystallinity. The results of the study demonstrate that diffusion of therapeutic agents though silk fibroin films can be directed to match a desired rate by modulating secondary structure of the silk proteins.

金属离子导致的丝素蛋白的构象转变

蚕丝和蜘蛛丝的优异力学性能一直是科学家们关注的课题^[1-3]。近年来,在蚕丝蛋白结构及其构象方面的研究取得了许多进展^[3-5]。在蚕的腺体中丝素蛋白的构象为silk I（主要是无规线团为主,还有少量的β－转角,α螺旋等）,而在纤维状的丝中为silk Ⅱ（主要是β折叠）。金属离子在蚕叶丝过程中的作用也一直是一个人们关心的问题。Chen等^[6]在研究丝胶（包附在丝素蛋白表层的另外一种蛋白）时发现,在一定pH条件下,Ni^2 离子通过四配位的螯合作用诱导丝素蛋白β折叠的形成。并且,Viney等^[7]根据电感耦合等离子体（ICP－MS）技术推测Ca^2 的增加能使β折叠的形成加速。

Processing of β-Glucosidase–Silk Fibroin Nanoparticle Bioconjugates and Their Characteristics

Silk fibroin derived from Bombyx mori is a biomacromolecular protein with excellent biocompatibility. The aim of this work was to develop silk fibroin nanoparticles (SFNs) derived from the fibrous protein, which is a novel vector for enzyme modification in food processing. Silk fibroin was dissolved in highly concentrated CaCl₂ and subjected to lengthy desalting in water. The resulting liquid silk, which contained water-soluble polypeptides with molecular mass ranging from 10 to 200 kDa, and β-glucosidase were added rapidly into acetone. The β-glucosidase molecules were embedded into silk fibroin nanoparticles, forming β-glucosidase–silk fibroin nanoparticles (βG–SFNs) with a diameter of 50–150 nm. The enzyme activity of the βG–SFN bioconjugates was determined with p-nitrophenyl-β-d-glucoside as the substrate, and the optimum conditions for the preparation of βG–SFNs were investigated. The enzyme activity recovery of βG–SFNs was 59.2 % compared to the free enzyme (specific activity was 1 U mg^-1). The kinetic parameters of the βG–SFNs and the free β-glucosidase were the same. The βG–SFNs had good operational stability and could be used repeatedly. These results confirmed that silk protein nanoparticles were good carriers as bioconjugates for the modification of enzymes with potential value for research and development. The method used in this study has potential applications in food processing and the production of flavour agents.     

蚕体内不同丝腺部位丝蛋白溶液结构与性质的研究

Structural changes of silk fibroin membranes induced by immersion in methanol aqueous solutions

Structural changes of native and regenerated silk fibroin membranes were induced by immersion in water-methanol solutions and examined as a function of immersion time and methanol concentration. X-ray diffractometry and infrared spectroscopy data showed that transition from random coil to β-sheet structure occurred favorably when both native and regenerated silk fibroin membranes were immersed in water-methanol solutions, regardless of the different immersion time. Only native silk membrane, treated for 2 min with pure methanol, maintained its original amorphous structure, as demonstrated by differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) curves. The degree of displacement, measured by thermomechanical analysis (TMA), was much greater for regenerated than for native silk fibroin membranes. SDS-PAGE pattern showed that native silk fibroin has a molecular weight of 350, while the regenerated sample is formed by a large number of polypeptides in the range of 200-50 KD. The amount of acidic and basic amino acids decreased slightly in regenerated silk fibroin. Physical properties of silk membranes treated with water-methanol solutions are discussed in terms of membrane structure, treatment conditions, and chemical structure of starting material. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Preparation and characterization of chitin whisker-reinforced silk fibroin nanocomposite sponges

For highly porous form such as sponges or scaffolds, the induction of the β-sheet formation of silk fibroin to make the water-stable materials usually results in their high shrinkage leading to a difficulty in controlling shape and size of materials. Thus, the objective of this study was to improve dimensional stability of silk fibroin sponge by incorporating chitin whiskers as nanofiller. Chitin whiskers exhibited the average length and width of 427 and 43 nm, respectively. Nanocomposite sponges at chitin whiskers to silk fibroin weight ratio (C/S ratio) of 0, 1/8, 2/8, or 4/8 were prepared by using a freeze-drying technique. The dispersion of chitin whiskers embedded in the silk fibroin matrix was found to be homogeneous. The presence of chitin whiskers embedded into silk fibroin sponge not only improved its dimensional stability but also enhanced its compression strength. Regardless of the chitin whisker content, SEM micrographs showed that all samples possessed an interconnected pore network with an average pore size of 150 μm. To investigate the feasibility of the nanocomposites for tissue engineering applications, L929 cells were seeded onto their surfaces, the results indicated that silk fibroin sponges both with and without chitin whiskers were cytocompatible. Moreover, when compared to the neat silk fibroin sponge, the incorporation of chitin whiskers into the silk fibroin matrix was found to promote cell spreading.
