Abstract
Background 7,8-dihydroxyflavone (DHF) is a naturally occurring flavonoid found in Godmania, Tridax, and Primula species that confers protection against high-fat diet (HFD) induced metabolic pathologies selectively in female mice. We have previously reported that this metabolic protection is associated with early and stable remodeling of the intestinal microbiome, evident in female but not male DHF-supplemented mice. Early changes in the gut microbiome in female DHF-fed mice were highly predictive of subsequent metabolic protection, suggesting a causative association between the gut microbiome and the metabolic effects of DHF. Objective To investigate a causal association between the gut microbiome and the metabolic effects of DHF using a model of antibiotic-induced gut microbiome ablation. Materials and methods Age-matched male and female C57Bl6/J mice were given ad libitum access to HFD and drinking water containing vehicle or DHF for 12 weeks. For antibiotic (Abx) treatment, female mice were given drinking water containing a cocktail of antibiotics for 2 weeks prior to HFD feeding and throughout the feeding period. Metabolic phenotyping consisted of longitudinal assessments of body weights, body composition, food, and water intake, as well as measurement of energy expenditure, glucose tolerance, and plasma and hepatic lipids. Protein markers mediating the cellular effects of DHF were assessed in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and skeletal muscle. Results Metabolic protection conferred by DHF in female HFD-fed mice was only apparent in the presence of an intact gut microbiome. Abx-treated mice were not protected from HFD-induced obesity by DHF administration. Further, tissue activation of the tropomyosin-related kinase receptor B (TrkB) receptor, which has been attributed to the biological activity of DHF, was lost upon gut microbiome ablation, indicating a requirement for microbial “activation” of DHF for its systemic effects. In addition, we report for the first time that DHF supplementation significantly activates TrkB in BAT of female, but not male, mice uncovering a novel target tissue of DHF. DHF supplementation also increased uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) and AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) protein in BAT, consistent with protection from diet-induced obesity. Conclusion These results establish for the first time a requirement for the gut microbiome in mediating the metabolic effects of DHF in female mice and uncover a novel target tissue that may mediate these sexually-dimorphic protective effects.

Physicochemical Characterization of Resistant Starch Type-III (RS3) Obtained by Autoclaving Malanga ( Xanthosoma sagittifolium) Flour and Corn Starch. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26134006. [PMID: 34209163 PMCID: PMC8271965 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26134006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The feasibility of obtaining resistant starch type III (RS3) from malanga flour (Xanthosoma sagittifolium), as an unconventional source of starch, was evaluated using the hydrothermal treatment of autoclaving. The physicochemical characterization of RS3 made from malanga flour was carried out through the evaluation of the chemical composition, color attributes, and thermal properties. In addition, the contents of the total starch, available starch, resistant starch, and retrograded resistant starch were determined by in vitro enzymatic tests. A commercial corn starch sample was used to produce RS3 and utilized to compare all of the analyses. The results showed that native malanga flour behaved differently in most of the evaluations performed, compared to the commercial corn starch. These results could be explained by the presence of minor components that could interfere with the physicochemical and functional properties of the flour; however, the RS3 samples obtained from malanga flour and corn starch were similar in their thermal and morphological features, which may be related to their similarities in the content and molecular weight of amylose, in both of the samples. Furthermore, the yields for obtaining the autoclaved powders from corn starch and malanga flour were similar (≈89%), which showed that the malanga flour is an attractive raw material for obtaining RS3 with adequate yields, to be considered in the subsequent research.

Insights into the structure and conformation of potato resistant starch (type 2) using asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation coupled with multiple detectors. Food Chem 2021; 349:129168.

Abstract
Insight into the structure and conformation characteristics of starch that influence its enzyme susceptibility is import for its potential application. In this study, the capacity of asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) coupled online with multi-angle light scatting (MALS) and differential refractive index (dRI) detectors (AF4-MALS-dRI) for monitoring of change in structure and conformation of potato starch during enzymatic hydrolysis was evaluated. The dissolution behavior of potato resistant starch (type 2) (PRS) was investigated. The effect of incubation time and amyloglucosidase concentration on the structure and conformation of potato starch was studied. The apparent density and the ratio of Rg (radius of gyration) to Rh (hydrodynamic radius) obtained from AF4-MALS-dRI were proven to be important parameters as they offer an insight into conformation of PRS at molecular level. Results suggested that gelatinization process made potato amylose molecules have a loose and random coil conformation which could contribute to an acceleration of enzymatic hydrolysis of potato starch. Furthermore, an intermediate with an elongated branched conformation was found between amylose and amylopectin populations, which may play a role in digestion property of potato starch. The results demonstrated that AF4-MALS-dRI is a powerful tool for better understanding of conformation of PRS.

Abstract
Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott and Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L.) Schott are the most popular tubers among the Araceas family. Their chemical composition related to their nutritional benefits could make these rhizomes a valid option for the nutritional and technological improvement of food products. This chapter provide a clarification about the correct nomenclature of both tubers giving an insight around the principle components and their health effects. The scientific literature review has primarily highlighted several in vitro and animal studies where the consumption (leaves and whole tuber) of Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott and Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L.) Schott was related with certain antihyperglycemic, antihypertensive, hypoglycemic and prebiotic effects. Owing to their functional properties, different component from these rhizomes, specially starch, mucilage and powders are being used by the food industry. Their ability to behave as thickener and gelling agent has allowed their incorporation in baked food, food paste and beverages. This chapter suggests the development of more research around these rhizomes since they could potentially play, with other crops, an important role in the future sustainable strategies to feed the planet.

Abstract
Starchy ingredients are a key source of carbohydrates and have an essential role in a healthy diet. Starch amount in foodstuffs is paramount as it allows diet professionals to base their formulations on scientific data. Herein, the total (TS) and resistant starch (RS) content, in a selection of typical starchy foods available on the Costa Rican market, for both human and animal consumption, is reported. The major types of starch, including physically encapsulated starch, were determined using in vitro methods AOAC OMASM methods 996.11, 2014.10, 996.11, 2002.02 and AACC 76-13.01 and 32-40.01. Samples were collected during 5 years as part of national surveillance plans. For feedstuffs, n = 252 feed ingredients (e.g., cornmeal and wheat products), n = 103 feeds (e.g., dairy and beef cattle), and n = 150 feed ingredient samples (selected based on their usage in feed formulations) were assessed for RS. In food commodities, sample numbers ascended to n = 287 and n = 371 for TS and RS, respectively (e.g. bananas). Feed ingredients with higher TS values were cassava meal, bakery by-products, rice/broken, sweet potato, and cornmeal (93.37, 81.67, 72.33, 66.66, and 61.43 g/100 g, respectively). TS for beef and dairy cattle, pig, and calf feeds, ranged from 30.26 to 34.46 g/100 g. Plantain/green banana flour, as a feed ingredient, exhibited RS absolute and relative contributions of 37.04 g/100 g and 53.89%, respectively. Products with a higher TS content included banana flour, green plantain flour, japonica rice, and cassava flour (62.87, 63.10, 72.90, 83.37 g/100 g). The primary RS sources in the Costa Rican diet are, in absolute terms, green plantain and malanga (50.41 and 56.59 g/100 g). Depending on a person's food habits, these sources may contribute in the range of 20-30 grams of RS per day. TS and RS intake may vary considerably among ingredients, and the contribution of RS may be of nutritional importance for specific individuals.

Abstract
Tubers and roots have been used in human nutrition since ancient times once they are resistant to pests and easy to grow even in soils poor in nutrients. The most consumed include cassava, potatoes, taro, and yam. In many regions, they are the main source of energy, which has led to industrial-scale cultivation of some such as yacon, burdock, Jerusalem and artichoke, known as sources of fructooligosaccharides, due to the increased demand for prebiotic fibers and the need for lower energy foods. This chapter will present a general approach to tubers and roots and their important role in human nutrition. At the end of the chapter, those recognized as prebiotics and the processing methods for extracting fibers will be discussed.
