In conclusion, SmNe has a gastroprotective activity related to cytoprotective mechanisms, such as the participation of endogenous prostaglandins and KATP channels, having an anti-secretory effect with systemic action. The formulation obtained presented gastroprotective effects similar to the administration of the extract, the tablets showed favorable compression characteristics by the direct route and met the pharmacopeial quality requirements.Sweet proteins are a class of proteins with the ability to elicit a sweet sensation in humans upon interaction with sweet taste receptor T1R2/T1R3. Single-chain Monellin, MNEI, is among the sweetest proteins known and it could replace sugar in many food and beverage recipes. Nonetheless, its use is limited by low stability and high aggregation propensity at neutral pH. To solve this inconvenience, we designed a new construct of MNEI, dubbed Mut9, which led to gains in both sweetness and stability. Mut9 showed an extraordinary stability in acidic and neutral environments, where we observed a melting temperature over 20 °C higher than that of MNEI. In addition, Mut9 resulted twice as sweet than MNEI. Both proteins were extensively characterized by biophysical and sensory analyses. Notably, Mut9 preserved its structure and function even after 10 min boiling, with the greatest differences being observed at pH 6.8, where it remained folded and sweet, whereas MNEI lost its structure and function. Finally, we performed a 6-month shelf-life assessment, and the data confirmed the greater stability of the new construct in a wide range of conditions. These data prove that Mut9 has an even greater potential for food and beverage applications than MNEI.Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve any
