Popis Natural compounds offer a wide spectrum of potential active substances, but often they have a poor bioavailability. To increase the bioavailability and bioactivity of the natural anti-inflammatory molecules curcumin and diplacone, we used glucan particles (GPs), hollow shells from Saccharomyces cerevisiae composed mainly of beta-1,3-D-glucan. Their indigestibility and relative stability in the gut combined with their immunomodulatory effects makes them promising carriers for such compounds. This study aimed to determine how curcumin and diplacone, either alone or incorporated in GPs, affect the immunomodulatory activity of the latter by assessing the respiratory burst response and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines by primary porcine innate immune cells. Incorporating curcumin and diplacone into GPs by controlled evaporation of the organic solvent substantially reduced the respiratory burst response mediated by GPs. Incorporated curcumin in GPs also reduced GPs mediated secretion of IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha by innate immune cells. The obtained results indicate a potentially beneficial effect of the incorporation of curcumin or diplacone into GPs against inflammation.
