Abstract
An amaranth beverage (AB) was subjected to a simulated process of dynamic gastrointestinal digestion DIDGI®, a simple two-compartment in vitro dynamic gastrointestinal digestion system. The structural changes caused to the proteins during digestion and the digesta inhibitory capacity of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) were investigated. In gastric compartment the degree of hydrolysis (DH) was 14.7 ± 1.5 % and in the intestinal compartment, proteins were digests in a greater extent (DH = 60.6 ± 8.4 %). Protein aggregation was detected during the gastric phase. The final digesta obtained both at the gastric and intestinal level, showed ACE inhibitory capacity (IC50 80 ± 10 and 140 ± 20 μg/mL, respectively). Purified fractions from these digesta showed even greater inhibitory capacity, being eluted 2 (E2) the most active fraction (IC50 60 ± 10 μg/mL). Twenty-six peptide sequences were identified. Six of them, with potential antihypertensive capacity, belong to A. hypochondriacus, 3 agglutinins and 3 encrypted sequences in the 11S globulin. Results obtained provide new and useful information on peptides released from the digestion of an amaranth based beverage and its ACE bioactivity.

Abstract
Amaranthus grains have attracted great attention due to its attractive health benefits. The grains have processing properties (e.g., starch related properties) similar to those of common cereals. Amaranth grains are gluten free and protein is a significant component of these grains. Proteins of the grains have been used in various food applications such as formulations of edible films and emulsions for controlled release of bioactive compounds. The proteins have been hydrolyzed using different enzymes to produce peptides and hydrolysates, which showed a range of biological functions including anti-hypertensive and antioxidant activities among others. They have been formulated into staple foods including breads and pastas for improved nutritional quality. This review summarizes the recent advances of the last 5 years in understanding the biological functions and food applications of proteins, protein hydrolysates and peptides from the grains of different Amaranthus species. Limitations in the studies summarized are critically discussed with an aim to improve the efficiency in amaranth grain protein and peptide research.

Abstract
Pseudocereals (amaranth, buckwheat and quinoa) are emerging as popular gluten-free crops. This may be attributed to their wide-ranging health benefits, including antioxidant, hypoglycemic and serum-cholesterol reducing properties. Proteins of these crops have a high nutritional quality as a result of the presence of essential amino acids. Additionally, amaranth, buckwheat and quinoa proteins (AP, BP and QP, respectively) have physicochemical properties that are useful for the manufacture of different types of food. However, native pseudocereal proteins demonstrate a low solubility in water, mainly because of their composition. The major components of these proteins are albumins (water-soluble) and globulins (salt-soluble), although some proportions of glutelin (alkali-soluble) and prolamins (alcohol-soluble) are also found. The most commonly used method for extracting pseudocereal proteins is the alkaline extraction method, which may contribute to the low solubility of pseudocereal protein. Fortunately, different methods for modifying physicochemical (or techno-functional) properties have been proposed to extend their industrial application. For example, high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS) proved useful for improving the solubility of API and QP. Heating can allow for the formation of soluble aggregates of QP. The combination of heating and HIUS can improve the digestibility, solubility and foam properties of AP. Conjugation through the Maillard reaction can improve BPI and QP interfacial properties. Thus, present study provides a review of the solubility, extraction and modification of the techno-functional properties of AP, BP and QP. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Gastric, microbial and plant-based enzymes were used to produce Amaranth protein hydrolysates (APHs). APHs displayed enhanced cholesterol esterase (CEase) and pancreatic lipase (PL) inhibitory activities. Bromelain generated hydrolysates showed the highest CEase and PL inhibitory activity. FPFPPTLGY, FGAPR, and FPFVPAPT were predicted as potential PL inhibitors and FPFVPAPT as CEase inhibitor.
Human diet is undergoing a shift towards plant-based diet as a sustainable source of protein compared to animal-derived protein. In this study, cholesterol esterase (CEase) and pancreatic lipase (PL) inhibitory activities of amaranth protein hydrolysates (APHs) were studied. Bromelain, chymotrypsin, and actinase E were used for generating APHs at 2, 4 & 6 h of hydrolysis. Higher PL inhibiting potential were observed in bromelain-derived APHs (IC50 = 0.38–0.66 mg/mL) in comparison to intact amaranth proteins (IC50 = 3.93 mg/mL). Bromelain-4 h hydrolysates (AB4) demonstrated significant inhibitory potential for both CEase (IC50 = 0.47 mg/mL) and PL (IC50 = 0.48 mg/mL) activity. Peptide identification in AB-4 hydrolysate revealed that among 17 bioactive peptides, three peptides (FPFPPTLGY, FGAPR, and FPFVPAPT) were predicted as potential PL inhibitors and only one peptide (FPFVPAPT) was predicted as CEase inhibitor based on the number of substrate binding sites on active site of the enzymes. This is the first study providing insights into amaranth protein derived bioactive peptide possessing CEase and LIP inhibitory potential.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides (BPs) are specific protein fragments that exert various beneficial effects on human bodies and ultimately influence health, depending on their structural properties and amino acid composition and sequences. By offering promising solutions to solve diverse health issues, the production, characterization, and applications of food-derived BPs have drawn great interest in the current literature and are of particular interest to the food and pharmaceutical industries. The microbial fermentation of protein from various sources is indubitably a novel way to produce BPs with numerous beneficial health effects. Apart from its lower cost as compared to enzymes, the BPs produced from microbial fermentation can be purified without further hydrolysis. Despite these features, current literature shows dearth of information on the BPs produced from food via microbial fermentation. Hence, there is a strong necessity to explore the BPs obtained from food fermentation for the development of commercial nutraceuticals and functional foods. As such, this review focuses on the production of BPs from different food sources, including the extensively studied milk and milk products, with emphasis on microbial fermentation. The structure-activity (antihypertensive, antioxidant, antimicrobial, opiate-like, anti-inflammatory, anticancer/antiproliferative, antithrombotic, hypolipidemic, hypocholesterolemic, and mineral binding) relationship, potential applications, future development, and challenges of BPs obtained from food fermentation are also discussed.

Abstract
Amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus) is an ancestral nutritional grain and good source of bioactive compounds as peptides. In this study, the effect of in vitro simulated gastrointestinal digestion (SGD) of germinated amaranth on the release of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory peptides was evaluated. The germinated amaranth peptides generated during SGD were released after 90 min of incubation with pancreatin and fractioned to F1 (>10 kDa), F2 (3-10 kDa), and F3 (<3 kDa). Among germinated amaranth peptides fractions tested, F2 had the highest antioxidant activity, while F1 and F2 exhibited a high anti-inflammatory response caused by lipopolysaccharide-induced in RAW 264.7 macrophages. A total of 11 peptides sequences were identified in the fractions evaluated, and they exhibit potential biological activity against non-communicable diseases. The findings from this study showed first time report on bioactive peptides, especially anti-inflammatory, from germinated amaranth released by in vitro gastrointestinal digestion.

Abstract
Amaranth is an ancestral crop used by pre-Columbian cultures for 6000 to 8000 years. Its grains have a relevant chemical composition not only from a nutritional point of view but also due to the contribution of components with good techno-functional properties and important potential as bioactive compounds. Numerous studies have shown that amaranth storage proteins possess encrypted sequences that, once released, exhibit different physiological activities. One of the most studied is antihypertensive activity. This review summarizes the progress made over the last years (2008-2020) related to this topic. Studies related to inhibition of different enzymes of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system, in particular Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) and Renin, as well as those referring to potential modulation mechanisms of tissue or local Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system, are analyzed, including in silico, in vitro, in vivo, and ex vivo assays. Furthermore, the potential use of these bioactive peptides or products containing them, in the elaboration of functional food matrices is discussed. Finally, the most relevant conclusions and future requirements in research and development of food products are presented.

Abstract
In the present work, amaranth proteins were used as a functional ingredient of formulated food. An amaranth lemon sorbet, a healthy alternative dessert for celiac, vegan and any consumer that chooses to follow a conscious diet, was elaborated and characterized. The sorbet base mixture behaved like a pseudoplastic and thixotropic fluid, with a Kokini viscosity of 0.42 ± 0.07 Pa.s, a suitable value for elaborating products with good thickness characteristics. Aeration rate of the sorbet was 36.15 ± 3.48, an overrun value within the expected range of 30-50%, indicating that amaranth proteins presented adequate foaming properties in low pH elaboration conditions. Moreover, the stability study showed that the sorbet did not suffer significant changes in its structure over time during the first two months of storage at -20 °C. Sensory evaluation evidenced panelists accepted the product (8 ± 1, acceptability assay) and related it with airy, creamy and healthy attributes (CATA assay). Finally, simulated gastrointestinal digestion was able to release peptides capable of inhibiting fibrin clot formation (IC50 = 3.4 ± 0.1 mg protein/mL), demonstrating that amaranth proteins could be used as a good foaming ingredient in the elaboration of potential functional foods with antithrombotic activity.

Abstract
The bioactive properties and health-promoting effects of two novel yellow (C09052, C05041) and two brown (Calvi, Bastia) hairless canary seed (Phalaris canariensis L.) cultivars were investigated in comparison to two common cereal grains (wheat and oat). The cereal flours were digested using the standardized INFOGEST in vitro human gastrointestinal digestion model. The three-kilo dalton molecular weight cutoff (3 kDa MWCO) permeate of the generated digestates was assessed in vitro for their antioxidant, chelating, antihypertensive and antidiabetic activities. The results showed no significant differences in studied bioactivities between yellow and brown canary seed cultivars, except for antioxidant activity by the DPPH and chelating Fe2+ assays, where brown cultivars had higher activities. Canary seeds had superior or equivalent antioxidant activity than those from oat and wheat. The anti-hypertensive activity (Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition) in yellow canary seed cultivars was significantly higher than that of oat and wheat, particularly for C09052 and Calvi varieties. Peptides exhibiting the highest antihypertensive activity from the permeate of the C09052 canary seed variety were further fractionated and identified by mass spectrometry. Forty-six peptides were identified belonging to 18 proteins from the Pooideae subfamily. Fourteen of the parent proteins were homologous to barley proteins. Peptides were analyzed in silico to determine potential bioactivity based on their amino acid composition. All 46 peptides had potential anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic activities and 20 had potential antioxidant activity, thereby validating the in vitro assay data. Canary seed peptides also exhibited potential antiamnestic, antithrombotic, immunostimulating, opioid and neuro-activity, demonstrating important potential for health promoting effects, particularly against cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
A novel food-derived anticoagulant heptapeptides (P-3-CG) was isolated and characterized from oyster (Crassostrea gigas) pepsin hydrolysate. P-3-CG competed with fibrinogen against thrombin active domain by a spontaneous and exothermic reaction which was entropically driven. The residue Lys7 of P-3-CG anchored thrombin S1 pocket strongly, which inhibited fibrinogen binding to the thrombin, then blocked the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin. The fibrinogen clotting time was prolonged to 27.55 s, and the reciprocally authenticated results of dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscope further explained for fibrinogen clotting time extension. Inhibition of amidolytic activity of thrombin was affected significantly by reaction time and P-3-CG concentration. Furthermore, P-3-CG prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time significantly in vitro/vivo, and decreased the mortality which was confirmed by pulmonary pathological slide results. The obtained results demonstrated that P-3-CG may potentially serve as an alternative food-derived anticoagulant peptide that could be utilized for thrombosis prevention.

Pseudocereal grains: Nutritional value, health benefits and current applications for the development of gluten-free foods. Food Chem Toxicol 2020; 137:111178. [PMID: 32035214 DOI: 10.1016/j.fct.2020.111178] [Citation(s) in RCA: 97] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2019] [Revised: 01/15/2020] [Accepted: 01/31/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Nowadays, consumers are more conscious of the environmental and nutritional benefits of foods. Pseudocereals grains, edible seeds belonging to dicotyledonous plant species, are becoming a current trend in human diets as gluten-free (GF) grains with excellent nutritional and nutraceutical value. Pseudocereals are a good source of starch, fiber, proteins, minerals, vitamins, and phytochemicals such as saponins, polyphenols, phytosterols, phytosteroids, and betalains with potential health benefits. The present review aims to summarize the nutritional quality and phytochemical profile of the three main pseudocereal grains: quinoa, amaranth and buckwheat. In addition, current evidence about their health benefits in animal models and human studies is also provided in detail. Based on the accumulating research supporting the inclusion of pseudocereals grains in the diet of celiac persons, this review discusses the recent advances in their application for the development of new GF products. Future directions for a wider cultivation and commercial exploitation of these crops are also highlighted.

Abstract
Amaranthus hypochondriacus spp. is a commonly grown cereal in Latin America, known for its high protein content. The objective of this study was to separate and identify bioactive peptides found in amaranth seeds through enzymatically-assisted hydrolysis using alcalase and flavourzyme. Hydrolysis was carried out for each enzyme separately and compared to two-step continuous process where both enzymes were combined. The biological activity of the resulting three hydrolysates was analyzed, finding, in general, higher bioactive potential of the hydrolysate obtained in a continuous process (combined enzymes). Its fractions were separated by RP-HPLC, and their bioactivity was analyzed. In particular, two fractions showed the highest biological activity as ACE inhibitors with IC50 at 0.158 and 0.134, thrombin inhibitors with IC50 of 167 and 155, and antioxidants in ABTS assay with SC50 at 1.375 and 0.992 mg/L, respectively. Further sequence analysis of the bioactive peptides was carried out using MALDI-TOF, which identified amino acid chains that have not been reported as bioactive so far. Bibliographic survey allowed identification of similarities between peptides reported in amaranth and other proteins. In conclusion, amaranth proteins are a potential source of peptides with multifunctional activity.

Abstract
In this study, oyster (Crassostrea gigas) proteins were digested under in vitro gastrointestinal conditions to screen potential antithrombotic peptides. The sequences of the released peptides in the intestinal digestion phase were identified by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight MS (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS). According to the antithrombotic activity analysis, the inhibitory ratio of oyster peptides showed an increasing trend, reaching up to 35.80% for a digestion period of 4 h. The APTT (activated partial thromboplastin time) and TT (thromboplastin time) were increased by oyster peptides for human serum in vitro. Oyster peptides showed a competitive inhibition effect on thrombin, based on Lineweaver-Burk plot analysis. Molecular docking between the antithrombotic peptides and thrombin (PDB: ) was conducted using Discovery Studio 2017. Potential inhibitors against thrombin and the mechanism of antithrombotic activity were predicted using the algorithm of CDOCKER. There are fourteen potential antithrombotic peptides, whose affinity with thrombin is higher than that of hirudin, as indicated by the "-CDOCKER energy" score (181.491). Peptide LSKEEIEEAKEV is similar in sequence to thrombin inhibitors. The binding sites of potential antithrombotic peptides against thrombin at the S1 pocket were compared with hirudin variant-2 (GDFEEIPEEYLQ). In addition, the peptides containing the RG/RGD sequence were identified, which can be hydrolyzed by thrombin as a substrate. Consequently, the oyster peptides released in simulated gastrointestinal digestion probably inhibit thrombin in two ways, not only as the inhibitor against the active site, but also as the substrate of thrombin. These results maybe be attributed to the potentially strong antithrombotic activity in the human digestive system.

Abstract
A newly discovered anticoagulant peptide was isolated, purified and identified from the pepsin hydrolysate of oyster (Crassostrea gigas) which could potently prolong the activated partial thromboplastin time and the thrombin time. The anticoagulant peptide with a 1264.36 Da molecular mass was similar to the amino acid sequence of the C-terminal segment (DFEEIPEEYLQ) of hirudin (a potent thrombin inhibitor). The peptide specifically inhibited a vital blood coagulation factor: thrombin. The molecular docking energy scores of the anticoagulant peptide with the active site, exosite-I and exosite-II of thrombin were 132.355 kcal mol-1, 151.266 kcal mol-1 and 147.317 kcal mol-1, respectively. The anticoagulant peptide interacted with thrombin by competing with fibrinogen for an anion-binding exosite I. In the anticoagulant peptide-thrombin complex, there are seven hydrogen bonds and reciprocity exists between hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms, and electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions are also involved. Such abundant interactions may be accountable for the high affinity and specificity of the anticoagulant peptide.

Abstract
Antiproliferative effect of Amaranthus mantegazzianus proteins and peptides released after simulated gastrointestinal digestion (DH% 37.8 ± 3.8) was investigated on human colon cancer cell line HT-29. Inhibition of proliferation of HT-29 cells was exhibited after a 24 h treatment with different concentrations of amaranth protein isolate (API) and the peptides released after digestion (DGS), presenting IC50 values of 1.35 ± 0.12 and 0.30 ± 0.07 mg soluble protein/mL, respectively. Lactate dehydrogenase assay indicated that both samples caused the loss of membrane integrity and cell lysis over HT-29 cells, and DAPI fluorescence microscopies evidenced typical apoptotic features. Moreover, Annexin V-FITC flow cytometry showed a significant increase of early apoptotic and late apoptotic/necrotic HT-29 cells compared to untreated ones, and caspase-3 assay confirmed the apoptosis induction with a 43.0 ± 10.3 and 65.8 ± 12.7% increase of caspase-3 activity produced by a 2 mg/mL treatment of API and DGS, respectively. In conclusion, amaranth peptides successfully released after simulated gastrointestinal digestion would exert a potential antiproliferative activity over HT-29 tumor cells. This effect was linked to the induction of cell necrosis and apoptosis, supporting the idea of using amaranth proteins as a potential food alternative ingredient for functional foods.

Abstract
Thromboembolism and its sequelae have been the leading causes of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. Food-derived antithrombotic peptides, as potential ingredients in health-promoting functional foods targeting thrombus, have attracted increasing attention because of their high biological activities, low toxicity, and ease of metabolism in the human body. This review presents the conventional workflow of preparation, isolation and identification of antithrombotic peptides from various kinds of food materials. More importantly, to analyze the antithrombotic effects and mechanism of antithrombotic peptides, methods for interaction of anticoagulant peptides and thrombin, the main participant in thrombosis, were analyzed from biochemistry, solution chemistry and crystal chemistry. The present study is intended to highlight the recent advances in research of food-derived antithrombotic peptide as a novel vehicle in the field of food science and nutrition. Future outlooks are highlighted with the aim to suggest a research line to be followed in further studies with the introduced research approach.

Abstract
Glabrous canaryseeds were recently approved for human consumption as a novel cereal grain in Canada and the United States. Previously, canaryseeds were exclusively used as birdseed due to the presence of carcinogenic silica fibers; therefore the nutritional value of the seeds has been seriously overlooked. Two cultivars of glabrous canaryseeds (yellow and brown) were created from the hairy varieties. They are high in protein compared to other cereal grains, and contain high amounts of tryptophan, an amino acid normally lacking in cereals, and are gluten-free. Bioactive peptides of canaryseeds produced by in vitro gastrointestinal digestion have shown antioxidant, antidiabetic, and antihypertensive activity. The seeds contain other constituents with health promoting effects, including unsaturated fatty acids, minerals, and phytochemicals. Anti-nutritional components in the seeds are comparable to other cereal grains. Because of their beneficial health effects, canaryseeds should be regarded as a healthy food and have immense potential as a functional food and ingredient. Further research is required to determine additional bioactive peptide activity and capacity, as well as differences between the yellow and brown cultivars.

The tests were conducted with three commercial starter cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus), ten probiotic strains (seven Lactobacillus spp. and three Bifidobacterium spp. strains), and two harmful bacteria representative of the intestinal microbiota (Escherichia coli and Clostridium perfringens). In vitro fermentability assays were performed using a modified MRS broth supplemented with different fruits (acerola, orange, passion fruit, and mango), and soy (okara) by-products or amaranth flour. Orange and passion-fruit by-products were the substrates that most promoted the growth of bacterial populations, including pathogenic strains. On the other hand, the acerola by-product was the substrate that showed the highest selectivity for beneficial bacteria, since the E. coli and Cl. perfringens populations were lower in the presence of this fruit by-product. Although the passion fruit by-product, okara, and amaranth stimulated the probiotic strains, the growth of the pathogenic strains studied was higher compared to other substrates. Different growth profiles were verified for each substrate when the different strains were compared. Although pure culture models do not reflect bacterial interaction in the host, this study reinforces the fact that the ability to metabolize different substrates is strain-dependent, and acerola, mango, and orange by-products are the substrates with the greatest potential to be used as prebiotic ingredients.
