Gastric acid-response chitosan/alginate/tilapia collagen peptide composite hydrogel: Protection effects on alcohol-induced gastric mucosal injury

Long-term excessive alcohol intake can easily lead to gastritis, gastric ulcer, and gastric bleeding. In this paper, the gastric acid-responsive hydrogel of CS-NAC/alginate/tilapia collagen peptide (CS-NAC/ALG/TCP) was developed. Its structure and properties were determined. The alcohol-induced gast...

Description
Summary:Long-term excessive alcohol intake can easily lead to gastritis, gastric ulcer, and gastric bleeding. In this paper, the gastric acid-responsive hydrogel of CS-NAC/alginate/tilapia collagen peptide (CS-NAC/ALG/TCP) was developed. Its structure and properties were determined. The alcohol-induced gastric mucosal injury models in mice were established to evaluate the protective effects of CS-NAC/ALG/TCP. The results showed that CS-NAC/ALG/TCP was successfully fabricated, and it showed a sustained release of TCP, strong mucoadhesion, and excellent biodegradability in vitro. In the animal experiments, CS-NAC/ALG/TCP improved the oxidative stress status of the gastric mucosa by increasing the levels of SOD, GSH, and CAT in tissues. It also down-regulated the expression of MPO, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, and increased the production of gastric protective factors such as PGE2 and NO in mouse stomach, thereby reducing the alcohol-induced inflammation and protecting the gastric mucosal injury. Besides, CS-NAC/ALG/TCP can also increase the activities of alcohol metabolism enzymes to improve alcohol metabolism, thereby reducing alcoholic damage. In conclusion, CS-NAC/ALG/TCP is a promising candidate for the treatment of alcohol-induced gastric injury. [Display omitted]
