Abstract
Previous studies have found that soybean protein, especially soybean 7S protein (β-conglycinin), exhibits digestion resistance, but the mechanism of digestion resistance and its implications for human health are still unclear. Here, we show that the extracted soybean 7S protein contains both oligomer globulins and amyloid aggregates, while the gastric digested soybean 7S protein only contains amyloid aggregates and thus exhibits digestion resistance. An animal experiment shows that un-digestible soybean 7S protein effectively prevents aspirin-induced acute gastric mucosa damage. The impacts of un-digestible soybean 7S protein on gastric mucus barrier properties are investigated using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), Langmuir monolayer, and multiple particle tracking (MPT). Results show that these un-digestible protein aggregates can penetrate into gastric mucus, increase the viscosity and compactness of the mucin layer, and reinforce the gastric mucus barrier properties. The findings are helpful to understand that high consumption of non-fermented soybean foods is associated with a decreased risk of gastric cancer.

Abstract
The results of our previous study showed that the structure and function of β-glucan in barley were changed after fermentation by L. plantarum DY-1. In this study, the antioxidant activities of RBG (regular barley β-glucan, unfermented) and FBG (barley β-glucan, fermented with L. plantarum DY-1) were evaluated by adopting an in vivo animal model, Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). We also carried out an integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling for RBG and FBG to delineate their signature pathways. RBG treatment has better effects on SOD enzyme activity and ROS levels than FBG, while FBG treatment has better effects on the CAT enzyme activity and MDA content than RBG in C. elegans. Transcription group analysis showed that FBG mainly decreases the expression of the Cyp-D gene to inhibit the calcium signaling pathway, promotes the Wnt signaling pathway by up-regulating the GSK-3β gene and improving the oxidative damage of C. elegans; RBG mainly inhibits calcium signal pathways by reducing the expression of ANT-solute carrier family 25 genes, promoting life adjustment pathways by reducing the expression of the HSP-12.6 gene to improve the oxidative stress of C. elegans. Joint analysis showed that the difference between FBG and RBG in the regulation of oxidative stress is mainly reflected in the metabolism pathway of arachidonic acid. Under the regulation of FBG, the expression of the C03H5.4 gene was decreased, the expression of leukotriene A4, prostaglandin G2, arachidonic acid and phosphatidylcholine was decreased, and the expression of 14,15-DiHETrE was increased. Under the regulation of RBG, the expression of gene C03H5.4 was up-regulated, the expression of metabolites such as leukotriene B4 was up-regulated, and the expression of arachidonic acid and phosphatidylcholine was down-regulated.

Abstract
Protective and antioxidant properties of highly purified oat β-glucans of high and low molecular weight in liver and stomach were evaluated. The novelty in approach was to determine whether dietary β-glucans affect the parameters of oxidative stress directly in the stomach and indirectly in the liver, especially in inflammation states. Physicochemical properties e.g. viscoelastic was found as strictly dependent from molecular weight of oat β-glucans hence its metabolic activity could also show dependence. Three groups of rats were fed control diet and diet supplemented with low and high molecular weights oat β-glucans. Animals were divided into controls and individuals with experimentally induced intestinal inflammation. Most active in increasing of total antioxidant status was low molecular weight β-glucan. High molecular weight β-glucan supplementation inhibits lipid oxidation the most in LPS treated animals. The results obtained from experiment encourage for dietary intervention with oat β-glucans for stomach and liver protection during existing enteritis.

Gastroprotective effects of sulforaphane and thymoquinone against acetylsalicylic acid-induced gastric ulcer in rats. J Surg Res 2016; 203:348-59.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) commonly cause gastric ulcers (GUs). We investigated the effects of sulforaphane (SF) and thymoquinone (TQ) in rats with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)-induced GUs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-five male Wistar-Albino rats were divided into five groups: control; ASA; ASA with vehicle; ASA + SF; and ASA + TQ. Compounds were administered by oral gavage before GU induction. GUs were induced by intragastric administration of ASA. Four hours after GU induction, rats were killed and stomachs excised. Total oxidant status, total antioxidant status, total thiol, nitric oxide, asymmetric dimethylarginine, tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels, superoxide dismutase activity, and glutathione peroxidase activity in tissue were measured. Messenger RNA expression of dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolases, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells were analyzed. Renal tissues were evaluated by histopathologic and immunohistochemical means. RESULTS SF and TQ reduced GU indices, apoptosis, total oxidant status, asymmetric dimethylarginine, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, and inducible nitric oxide synthase expressions (P < 0.001, P = 0.001). Both examined compounds increased superoxide dismutase activity, glutathione peroxidase activity, total antioxidant status, total thiol, nitric oxide levels, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolases, HO-1, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2, and HO-1 expressions (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that pretreatment with SF or TQ can reduce ASA-induced GUs via anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiapoptotic effects. These compounds may be useful therapeutic strategies to prevent the gastrointestinal adverse effects that limit nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs use.

Oral Intake of Carboxymethyl-Glucan (CM-G) from Yeast (Saccharomyces uvarum) Reduces Malondialdehyde Levels in Healthy Men. Molecules 2015; 20:14950-8.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl-glucan (CM-G) is a water-soluble derivative of β(1→3)(1→6) glucan, a well-known immunostimulant and antioxidant compound. In this experimental, randomized and placebo-controlled study, the effects of oral CM-G intake over a 60-day period on the peripheral blood, cholesterol, glycemic index and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels of healthy men was assessed. The CM-G was obtained from spent brewer’s yeast (S. uvarum) with DS 0.8 and molecular weight of 2.2 × 105 Da. Following CM-G administration, no changes were observed in red and white blood cell, hematocrit, hemoglobin and platelet counts, or in cholesterol and glycemic indices. After 30 days of CM-G administration, the MDA levels decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in men receiving CM-G. The results showed for the first time that CM-G may act as an adjuvant in preventing oxidative damage in healthy humans.

Abstract
The exposure of gastric mucosa to damaging factors, such as ethanol and some therapeutic drugs, produces pathological changes: inflammatory process, hemorrhagic erosions and even acute ulcers. Ankaferd blood stopper (ABS) comprises a standardized mixture of five different plant extracts. The purpose of our present investigations is to explain the participation of reactive oxygen species in acute gastric mucosal damage by acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and the effects of new hemostatic agent ABS. Experiments were carried out on 23 male Wistar rats. To assess gastric mucosal damage, biochemical and histopathological data were used. The colorimetric assays were used to determine the malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. The level of myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, the level of nitric oxide (NO) and the proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique. We demonstrated that the biological effects of ROS were estimated by measuring the tissue and plasma levels of MDA, the products of lipid peroxidation, as well as the activity of SOD and the scavenger of ROS produced by ASA in the experiment group. Moreover, it was found that MPO activity as well as NO and TNF-α levels also demonstrated significant improvement by ABS treatment. The pathogenesis of experimental ASA-induced mucosal damage in rat stomach includes the generation of ROS that seems to play an important role, due to the generation of lipid peroxides, accompanied by the impairment of antioxidative enzyme activity of cells. ABS appeared to attenuate the oxidative and inflammatory changes caused by ASA-induced gastric mucosal damage in rats.
