Peptidomics analysis of in vitro digested wheat breads: Effect of genotype and environment on protein digestibility and release of celiac disease and wheat allergy related epitopes. Food Chem 2024; 448:139148. [PMID: 38569409 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 03/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
Wheat proteins can trigger immunogenic reactions due to their resistance to digestion and immunostimulatory epitopes. Here, we investigated the peptidomic map of partially digested bread samples and the fingerprint of epitope diversity from 16 wheat genotypes grown in two environmental conditions. Flour protein content and composition were characterized; gastric and jejunal peptides were quantified using LC-MS/MS, and genotypes were classified into high or low bread protein digestibility. Differences in flour protein content and peptide composition distinguish high from low digestibility genotypes in both growing environments. No common peptide signature was found between high- and low-digestible genotypes; however, the celiac or allergen epitopes were noted not to be higher in low-digestible genotypes. Overall, this study established a peptidomic and epitope diversity map of digested wheat bread and provided new insights and correlations between weather conditions, genotypes, digestibility and wheat sensitivities such as celiac disease and wheat allergy.

Abstract
The detection of protein is of great significance for the study of biological physiological function, early diagnosis of diseases and drug research. However, the sensitivity of traditional protein detection methods for detecting trace amount of proteins was relatively low. By integrating sensitive nucleic acid amplification techniques (NAAT) with protein detection methods, the detection limit of protein detection methods can be substantially improved. The DNA that can specifically bind to protein targets and convert protein signals into DNA signals is collectively referred to reporter DNA. Various NAATs have been used to establish NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors. And according to whether enzymes are involved in the amplification process, the NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors can be divided into two types: enzyme-assisted NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors and enzyme-free NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors. In this review, we will introduce the principles and applications of two types of NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors for detecting protein targets. Finally, the main challenges and application prospects of NAAT-based reporter DNA sensors are discussed.

Abstract
Wheat is one of the three major staple foods in the world. Although wheat is highly nutritional, it has a variety of allergenic components that are potentially fatal to humans and pose a significant hazard to the growth and consumption of wheat. Wheat allergy is a serious health problem, which is becoming more and more prevalent all over the world. To address and prevent related health risks, it is crucial to establish precise and sensitive detection and analytical methods as well as an understanding of the structure and sensitization mechanism of wheat allergens. Among various analytical tools, mass spectrometry (MS) is known to have high specificity and sensitivity. It is a promising non immune method to evaluate and quantify wheat allergens. In this article, the current research on the detection of wheat allergens based on mass spectrometry is reviewed. This review provides guidance for the further research on wheat allergen detection using mass spectrometry, and speeds up the development of wheat allergen research in China.

Abstract
Durum wheat represents a staple food in the human diet owing to its nutritional and technological features. In comparison to common wheat, durum wheat has higher tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, its production and culinary uses are limited compared to common wheat. Therefore, significant attention was attributed to upgrading the key quality of durum wheat (i.e., hardness, protein, starch and color). This review intends to put the spotlight on the modification of these properties to create new functionalities suiting a wider range of food applications based on critical compilation of scientific publications. Targeting specific genes has been shown to be a valuable strategy to design novel wheat varieties with higher nutritional value (e.g., high amylose), improved technological properties (e.g., higher glutenin content), attractive appearance (e.g., colored wheat) and new uses (e.g., soft durum wheat for breadmaking). Further efforts are still needed to find efficient ways to stabilize and maintain these properties. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Wheat is widely available in people's daily diets. However, some people are currently experiencing IgE-mediated allergic reactions to wheat-based foods, which seriously impact their quality of life. Thus, it is imperative to provide comprehensive knowledge and effective methods to reduce the risk of wheat allergy (WA) in food. In the present review, recent advances in WA symptoms, the major allergens, detection methods, opportunities and challenges in establishing animal models of WA are summarized and discussed. Furthermore, an updated overview of the different modification methods that are currently being applied to wheat-based foods is provided. This study concludes that future approaches to food allergen detection will focus on combining multiple tools to rapidly and accurately quantify individual allergens in complex food matrices. Besides, biological modification has many advantages over physical or chemical modification methods in the development of hypoallergenic wheat products, such as enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation. It is worth noting that using biotechnology to edit wheat allergen genes to produce allergen-free food may be a promising method in the future which could improve the safety of wheat foods and the health of allergy sufferers.

Abstract
Gluten proteins are the causative agents of celiac disease (CD), a lifelong and worldwide spread food intolerance, characterized by an autoimmune enteropathy. Gluten is a complex mixture of high homologous water-insoluble proteins, characterized by a high content of glutamine and proline amino acids that confers a marked resistance to degradation by gastrointestinal proteases. As a consequence of that, large peptides are released in the gut lumen with the potential to activate inflammatory T cells, in CD predisposed individuals. To date, several strategies aimed to detoxify gluten proteins or to develop immunomodulatory drugs to recover immune tolerance to gluten are under investigation. This review overviews the state of art of both analytical and functional methods currently used to assess the immunogenicity potential of gluten proteins from different cereal sources, including native raw seed flours and complex food products, as well as drug-treated samples. The analytical design to assess the content and profile of gluten immunogenic peptides, described herein, is based on the oral-gastro-intestinal digestion (INFOGEST model) followed by extensive characterization of residual gluten peptides by proteomic and immunochemical analyses. These approaches include liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and R5/G12 competitive ELISA. Functional studies to assess the immune stimulatory capabilities of digested gluten peptides are based on gut mucosa T cells or peripheral blood cells obtained from CD volunteers after a short oral gluten challenge.

Abstract
Allergy is widely discussed by researchers due to its complex mechanism that leads to disorders and injuries, but the reason behind the allergic status remains unclear. Current treatments are insufficient to improve the patient's quality of life significantly. New technologies in scientific and technological development are emerging. For instance, the union between allergy and peptidomics and bioinformatics tools may help fill the gaps in this field, diagnosis, and treatment. In this review, we look at peptidomics and address some findings, such as target proteins or biomarkers that help better understand mechanisms that lead to inflammation, organ damage, and, consequently, poor quality of life or even death.

Abstract
Time of ripening has a strong impact on shaping the valuable and recognizable characteristics of long-ripened types of cheese such as Parmigiano Reggiano (PR) due to the interrelationship between microbiota and proteolysis that occurs during ripening. The derived peptide profile is linked to cheese quality and represents the canvas for enzymes upon digestion, which could be responsible for the release of potentially bioactive peptides (BPs). In this study, we aimed at investigating the presence of BP in 72 PR cheese samples of different ripening times, from curd to 24 months of ripening, produced in six different dairies, and following their fate after simulated gastrointestinal digestion. A small number of peptide sequences sharing 100% similarity with known antimicrobial, antioxidant, and ACE-inhibitor sequences were found in PR cheeses, while a higher number of potential BPs were found after their simulated gastrointestinal digestion, in different amounts according to ripening time. Taking advantage of the complex organization of the sampling plan, we were able to follow the fate of peptides considered quality drivers during cheese ripening to their release as functional compounds upon digestion.

Abstract
Wheat is one of the most important cereal crops in the world as it is used in the production of a diverse range of traditional and modern processed foods. The ancient varieties einkorn, emmer, and spelt not only played an important role as a source of food but became the ancestors of the modern varieties currently grown worldwide. Hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and tetraploid wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) now account for around 95% and 5% of the world production, respectively. The success of this cereal is inextricably associated with the capacity of its grain proteins, the gluten, to form a viscoelastic dough that allows the transformation of wheat flour into a wide variety of staple forms of food in the human diet. This review aims to give a holistic view of the temporal and proteogenomic evolution of wheat from its domestication to the massively produced high-yield crop of our day.

Abstract
Celiac disease is activated by digestion-resistant gluten peptides that contain immunogenic epitopes. Sourdough fermentation is a potential strategy to reduce the concentration of these peptides within food. However, we currently know little about the effect of partial sourdough fermentation on immunogenic gluten. This study examined the effect of a single sourdough culture (representative of those that the public may consume) on the digestion of immunogenic gluten peptides. Sourdough bread was digested via the INFOGEST protocol. Throughout digestion, quantitative and discovery mass spectrometry were used to model the kinetic release profile of key immunogenic peptides and profile novel peptides, while ELISA probed the gluten's allergenicity. Macrostructural studies were also undertaken. Sourdough fermentation altered the protein structure, in vitro digestibility, and immunogenic peptide release profile. Interestingly, sourdough fermentation did not decrease the total immunogenic peptide concentration but altered the in vitro digestion profile of select immunogenic peptides. This work demonstrates that partial sourdough fermentation can alter immunogenic gluten digestion, and is the first study to examine the in vitro kinetic profile of immunogenic gluten peptides from sourdough bread.

Abstract
Modern high-speed mechanical dough development (MDD) alters the gluten macropolymer's (GMP) structure. Changes to both the protein and food matrix structure can influence protein digestibility and immunogenicity. This study investigated the relationship between protein structural changes imparted by MDD and gluten's digestibility plus celiac reactivity. Dough was prepared at three mixing speeds (63 rpm, 120 rpm and 200 rpm) to different degrees of development (between 10 and 180% wh.kg-1). Protein structural changes were characterised by confocal microscopy, free thiol determination and protein extractability assays. MDD altered the structure of gluten within bread, changing the protein's surface area and macrostructure. Breads were digested using the INFOGEST in vitro protocol. Gluten's antigenicity and digestibility were monitored using ELISA and mass spectrometry, by monitoring the concentration of six immunogenic peptides causative of celiac disease. The structural changes imparted by mixing did not affect bread's digestibility or celiac reactivity.

Abstract
Gluten is the ethanol-soluble protein fraction of cereal endosperms like wheat, rye, and barley. It is widely used in the food industry because of the physical-chemical properties it gives to dough. Nevertheless, there are some gluten-related diseases that are presenting increasing prevalences, e.g., celiac disease, for which a strict gluten-free diet is the best treatment. Due to this situation, gluten labeling legislation has been developed in several countries around the world. This article reviews the gluten immune detection systems that have been applied to comply with such regulations. These systems have followed the development of antibody biotechnology, which comprise three major methodologies: polyclonal antibodies, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) derived from hybridoma cells (some examples are 401.21, R5, G12, and α-20 antibodies), and the most recent methodology of recombinant antibodies. Initially, the main objective was the consecution of new high-affinity antibodies, resulting in low detection and quantification limits that are mainly achieved with the R5 mAb (the gold standard for gluten detection). Increasing knowledge about the causes of gluten-related diseases has increased the complexity of research in this field, with current efforts not only focusing on the development of more specific and sensitive systems for gluten but also the detection of protein motifs related to pathogenicity. New tools based on recombinant antibodies will provide adequate safety and traceability methodologies to meet the increasing market demand for gluten-free products.

The Diverse Potential of Gluten from Different Durum Wheat Varieties in Triggering Celiac Disease: A Multilevel In Vitro, Ex Vivo and In Vivo Approach. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12113566. [PMID: 33233787 PMCID: PMC7699868 DOI: 10.3390/nu12113566] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Revised: 11/15/2020] [Accepted: 11/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The reasons behind the increasing prevalence of celiac disease (CD) worldwide are still not fully understood. This study adopted a multilevel approach (in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo) to assess the potential of gluten from different wheat varieties in triggering CD. Peptides triggering CD were identified and quantified in mixtures generated from simulated gastrointestinal digestion of wheat varieties (n = 82). Multivariate statistics enabled the discrimination of varieties generating low impact on CD (e.g., Saragolla) and high impact (e.g., Cappelli). Enrolled subjects (n = 46) were: 19 healthy subjects included in the control group; 27 celiac patients enrolled for the in vivo phase. Celiacs were divided into a gluten-free diet group (CD-GFD), and a GFD with Saragolla-based pasta group (CD-Sar). The diet was followed for 3 months. Data were compared between CD-Sar and CD-GFD before and after the experimental diet, demonstrating a limited ability of Saragolla to trigger immunity, although not comparable to a GFD. Ex vivo studies showed that Saragolla and Cappelli activated immune responses, although with great variability among patients. The diverse potential of durum wheat varieties in triggering CD immune response was demonstrated. Saragolla is not indicated for celiacs, yet it has a limited potential to trigger adverse immune response.

Comparative Analysis of in vitro Digestibility and Immunogenicity of Gliadin Proteins From Durum and Einkorn Wheat. Front Nutr 2020; 7:56.

Abstract
Recent studies suggested that gliadin proteins from the ancient diploid einkorn wheat Triticum monococcum retained a reduced number of immunogenic peptides for celiac disease patients because of a high in vitro digestibility with respect to hexaploid common wheat. In this study, we compared the immunological properties of gliadins from two Triticum monococcum cultivars (Hammurabi and Norberto-ID331) with those of a Triticum durum cultivar (Adamello). Gliadins were digested by mimicking the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion process that includes the brush border membrane peptidases. Competitive ELISA, based on R5 monoclonal antibody, showed that gastrointestinal digestion reduced the immunogenicity of Triticum monococcum gliadins; conversely, the immunogenic potential of Triticum durum gliadins remained almost unchanged by the in vitro digestion. The immune stimulatory activity was also evaluated by detecting the IFN-γ production in gliadin-reactive T-cell lines obtained from the small intestinal mucosa of HLA-DQ2+ celiac disease patients. Interestingly, gastrointestinal digestion markedly reduced the capability of Triticum monococcum gliadins (p <0.05) of both cultivars to activate T cells, while it slightly affected the activity of Triticum durum. In conclusion, our results showed that Triticum durum was almost unaffected by the in vitro gastrointestinal digestion, while Triticum monococcum had a marked sensibility to digestion, thus determining a lower toxicity for celiac disease patients.

CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Editing of Gluten in Wheat to Reduce Gluten Content and Exposure-Reviewing Methods to Screen for Coeliac Safety. Front Nutr 2020; 7:51. [PMID: 32391373 PMCID: PMC7193451 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2020.00051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2020] [Accepted: 03/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Ingestion of gluten proteins (gliadins and glutenins) from wheat, barley and rye can cause coeliac disease (CD) in genetically predisposed individuals. The only remedy is a strict and lifelong gluten-free diet. There is a growing desire for coeliac-safe, whole-grain wheat-based products, as consumption of whole-grain foods reduces the risk of chronic diseases. However, due to the large number of gluten genes and the complexity of the wheat genome, wheat that is coeliac-safe but retains baking quality cannot be produced by conventional breeding alone. CD is triggered by immunogenic epitopes, notably those present in α-, γ-, and ω-gliadins. RNA interference (RNAi) silencing has been used to down-regulate gliadin families. Recently, targeted gene editing using CRISPR/Cas9 has been applied to gliadins. These methods produce offspring with silenced, deleted, and/or edited gliadins, that overall may reduce the exposure of patients to CD epitopes. Here we review methods to efficiently screen and select the lines from gliadin gene editing programs for CD epitopes at the DNA and protein level, for baking quality, and ultimately in clinical trials. The application of gene editing for the production of coeliac-safe wheat is further considered within the context of food production and in view of current national and international regulatory frameworks.

Effects of Cold Jet Atmospheric Pressure Plasma on the Structural Characteristics and Immunoreactivity of Celiac-Toxic Peptides and Wheat Storage Proteins. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21031012. [PMID: 32033029 PMCID: PMC7036898 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21031012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Revised: 01/16/2020] [Accepted: 01/20/2020] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
The present research reported the effects of structural properties and immunoreactivity of celiac-toxic peptides and wheat storage proteins modified by cold jet atmospheric pressure (CJAP) plasma. It could generate numerous high-energy excited atoms, photons, electrons, and reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, including O3, H2O2, •OH, NO2- and NO3- etc., to modify two model peptides and wheat storage proteins. The Orbitrap HR-LC-MS/MS was utilized to identify and quantify CJAP plasma-modified model peptide products. Backbone cleavage of QQPFP and PQPQLPY at specific proline and glutamine residues, accompanied by hydroxylation at the aromatic ring of phenylalanine and tyrosine residues, contributed to the reduction and modification of celiac-toxic peptides. Apart from fragmentation, oxidation, and agglomeration states were evaluated, including carbonyl formation and the decline of γ-gliadin. The immunoreactivity of gliadin extract declined over time, demonstrating a significant decrease by 51.95% after 60 min of CJAP plasma treatment in vitro. The CJAP plasma could initiate depolymerization of gluten polymer, thereby reducing the amounts of large-sized polymers. In conclusion, CJAP plasma could be employed as a potential technique in the modification and reduction of celiac-toxic peptides and wheat storage proteins.

Abstract
The consumption of wheat, rye, and barley may cause adverse reactions to wheat such as celiac disease, non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity, or wheat allergy. The storage proteins (gluten) are known as major triggers, but also other functional protein groups such as α-amylase/trypsin-inhibitors or enzymes are possibly harmful for people suffering of adverse reactions to wheat. Gluten is widely used as a collective term for the complex protein mixture of wheat, rye or barley and can be subdivided into the following gluten protein types (GPTs): α-gliadins, γ-gliadins, ω5-gliadins, ω1,2-gliadins, high- and low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits of wheat, ω-secalins, high-molecular-weight secalins, γ-75k-secalins and γ-40k-secalins of rye, and C-hordeins, γ-hordeins, B-hordeins, and D-hordeins of barley. GPTs isolated from the flours are useful as reference materials for clinical studies, diagnostics or in food analyses and to elucidate disease mechanisms. A combined strategy of protein separation according to solubility followed by preparative reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography was employed to purify the GPTs according to hydrophobicity. Due to the heterogeneity of gluten proteins and their partly polymeric nature, it is a challenge to obtain highly purified GPTs with only one protein group. Therefore, it is essential to characterize and identify the proteins and their proportions in each GPT. In this study, the complexity of gluten from wheat, rye, and barley was demonstrated by identification of the individual proteins employing an undirected proteomics strategy involving liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry of tryptic and chymotryptic hydrolysates of the GPTs. Different protein groups were obtained and the relative composition of the GPTs was revealed. Multiple reaction monitoring liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used for the relative quantitation of the most abundant gluten proteins. These analyses also allowed the identification of known wheat allergens and celiac disease-active peptides. Combined with functional assays, these findings may shed light on the mechanisms of gluten/wheat-related disorders and may be useful to characterize reference materials for analytical or diagnostic assays more precisely.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an immunogenic disorder that affects the small intestine. It is caused by the ingestion of gluten, a protein network formed by prolamins and glutelins from cereals such as wheat, barley, rye and, possibly, oats. For predisposed people, gluten presents epitopes able to stimulate T-cells causing symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, among others unrelated to the gastrointestinal system. The only treatment for CD is to maintain a gluten-free diet, not exceeding 20 mg/kg of gluten, what is generally considered the safe amount for celiacs. Due to this context, it is very important to identify and quantify the gluten content of food products. ELISA is the most commonly used method to detect gluten traces in food. However, by detecting only prolamins, the results of ELISA tests may be underestimated. For this reason, more reliable and sensitive assays are needed to improve gluten quantification. Because of high sensitivity and the ability to detect even trace amounts of peptides in complex matrices, the most promising approaches to verify the presence of gluten peptides in food are non-immunological techniques, like liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry. Different methodologies using this approach have been developed and described in the last years, ranging from non-targeted and exploratory analysis to targeted and specific methods depending on the purpose of interest. Non-targeted analyses aim to define the proteomic profile of the sample, while targeted analyses allow the search for specific peptides, making it possible to quantify them. This review aims to gather and summarize the main proteomic techniques used in the identification and quantitation of gluten peptides related to CD-activity and gluten-related allergies.
