Abstract
Background: The escalating prevalence of hyperuricemia is emerging as a significant public health concern. The association between dietary lignans and hyperuricemia is yet to be fully elucidated. Our study aims to evaluate the relationships between dietary lignan intake and hyperuricemia among middle-aged and elderly Chinese individuals, with an additional focus on investigating the underlying mechanisms. Methods: Dietary lignan intake was measured using a validated Food Frequency Questionnaire in 3801 participants at the baseline. Among them, 2552 participants were included in the longitudinal study with a median follow-up of 10.5 years. The gut microbiota was analyzed by shotgun metagenome sequencing in 1789 participants, and the targeted fecal metabolome was determined in 987 participants using UPLC-MS/MS at the midpoint of follow-up. Results: The multivariable-adjusted HRs (95% CIs) for hyperuricemia incidence in the highest quartile (vs. the lowest quartile) of dietary intake of total lignans, matairesinol, pinoresinol, and secoisolariciresinol were 0.93 (0.78-1.10), 0.77 (0.66-0.90), 0.83 (0.70-0.97), and 0.85 (0.73-1.00), respectively. The gut microbial and fecal metabolic compositions were significantly different across the dietary lignan groups and the hyperuricemia groups. The beneficial associations between dietary lignans and hyperuricemia might be mediated by several gut microbes (e.g., Fusobacterium mortiferum and Blautia sp. CAG-257) and the downstream bile acid products (e.g., NorCA, glycochenodeoxycholic acid, and glycoursodeoxycholic acid). Conclusion: We found that dietary lignans were inversely associated with hyperuricemia incidence, and the gut microbiota-bile acid axis might mediate this association. Our findings provide new perspectives on precise therapeutic targets and underlying mechanisms for conditions associated with elevated uric acid.

Abstract
Wheat bran is a low-cost by-product with significant nutritional value, but it is primarily utilized in animal feed applications. This study sought to investigate chemical methodologies for modifying the wheat bran's structure, enhancing non-starch polysaccharides solubility in water, and assessing alterations in functional and biological attributes. Chemical modifications were conducted under aqueous, alkaline, acid, and oxidizing conditions. Parameters such as yield, monosaccharides, arabinoxylans, β-glucan and phenolic content, molecular weight, functional properties, and prebiotic in vitro capacity were examined. The samples exhibited higher yields than the control, particularly in alkaline and acidic extractions. Notably, all soluble polysaccharide fractions (SPF) displayed a reduced molecular weight (<25KDa). β-glucan contents were raised in alkaline and acid extractions compared to the control, despite only in alkaline extraction were observed increase in arabinoxylans, confirmed by enzymatic-driven linkage analyses. Phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activities were low across all SPF. The samples showed heightened solubility, minimal foaming, and reduced water absorption properties. An alkaline extraction demonstrated a potential high prebiotic effect. Most samples showed positive relative growth and prebiotic activity for Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. This study suggests that an alkaline extraction of wheat by-product could enhance its value by increasing β-glucan content, arabinoxylans release, and prebiotic potential.

Abstract
Arabinoxylans (AXs) are compounds with high nutritional value and applicability, including prebiotics or supplementary ingredients, in food manufacturing industries. Unfortunately, the recovery of AXs may require advanced separation and integrated strategies. Here, an analysis of the emerging techniques to extract AXs from cereals and their by-products is discussed. This review covers distinct methods implemented over the last 2-3 years, identifying that the type of method, extraction source, AX physicochemical properties and pre-treatment conditions are the main factors influencing the recovery yield. Alkaline extraction is among the most used methods nowadays, mostly due to its simplicity and high recovery yield. Concurrently, recovered AXs applied in food applications is timely reviewed, such as potential bread ingredient, prebiotic and as a wall material for probiotic encapsulation, in beer and non-alcoholic beverage manufacturing, complementary ingredient in bakery products and cookies, improvers in Chinese noodles, 3D food printing and designing of nanostructures for delivery platforms.

Abstract
Dietary prebiotic fibers play an important role in modulating gut microbiota by enhancing the abundance of beneficial microorganisms and their bioactive metabolites. However, dietary fibers are a structurally heterogeneous class of polysaccharides, varying in molar mass, branching patterns, and monosaccharide composition, which could influence their utilization by various gut microorganisms. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of molar mass and chemical structure of wheat arabinoxylan fiber (AX) on the growth and metabolism of two key gut resident bacteria (Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus LGG), which are linked to human health. For this purpose, low, medium, and high molar masses of AX (LAX, MAX, and HAX, respectively) were modified with specific α-arabinofuranosidases to leave only singly substituted, only doubly substituted, or unsubstituted xylose units. Almost all the modified AX samples showed a better prebiotic score than unmodified AX for different molar masses. The modified LAX exhibited a better prebiotic effect than HAX and MAX. In addition, LAX, with doubly substituted xylose units, exhibited the highest prebiotic potential and SCFA production by both microorganisms. Furthermore, AX, either singly or doubly substituted, had a consistent impact on L. rhamnosus growth, whereas AX, with all arabinose residues removed, had a greater impact on F. prausnitzii. These findings support the potential of bioengineered AX as next-generation prebiotics targeting health-related gut microbes.

Abstract
An imbalance between energy consumption and energy expenditure causes obesity. It is characterized by increased adipose accumulation and accompanied by chronic low-grade inflammation. Many studies have suggested that the gut microbiota of the host mediates the relationship between high-fat diet consumption and the development of obesity. Diet and nutrition of the body are heavily influenced by gut microbiota. The alterations in the microbiota in the gut may have effects on the homeostasis of the host's energy levels, systemic inflammation, lipid metabolism, and insulin sensitivity. The liver is an important organ for fat metabolism and gut-liver axis play important role in the fat metabolism. Gut-liver axis is a bidirectional relationship between the gut and its microbiota and the liver. As essential plant components, lignans have been shown to have different biological functions. Accumulating evidences have suggested that lignans may have lipid-lowering properties. Lignans can regulate the level of the gut microbiota and their metabolites in the host, thereby affecting signaling pathways related to fat synthesis and metabolism. These signaling pathways can make a difference in inhibiting fat accumulation, accelerating energy metabolism, affecting appetite, and inhibiting chronic inflammation. It will provide the groundwork for future studies on the lipid-lowering impact of lignans and the creation of functional meals based on those findings.

Abstract
Microorganisms, fermentation processes, and the resultant metabolic products are a key driving force in biotechnology and, in particular, in food biotechnology. The quantity and/or quality of final manufactured food products are directly related to the efficiency of the metabolic processes of producer microorganisms. Food BioTech companies are naturally interested in increasing the productivity of their biotechnological production lines. This could be achieved via either indirect or direct influence on the fundamental mechanisms governing biological processes occurring in microbial cells. This review considers an approach to improve the efficiency of producer microorganisms through the use of several types of substances or complexes affecting the metabolic processes of microbial producers that are of interest for food biotechnology, particularly fermented milk products. A classification of these supplements will be given, depending on their chemical nature (poly- and oligosaccharides; poly- and oligopeptides, individual amino acids; miscellaneous substances, including vitamins and other organic compounds, minerals, and multicomponent supplements), and the approved results of their application will be comprehensively surveyed.

Abstract
Barley is rich in soluble dietary fiber including β-glucan and arabinoxylan. Barley β-glucan is fermented by gut bacteria and, thereby contributes to an effect on intestinal bacterial composition and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). It also increases GLP-1 secretion via SCFAs receptor. However, few studies have focused on barley arabinoxylan. Therefore, we have investigated the effects of arabinoxylan from barley on intestinal fermentability and GLP-1 secretion. C57BL/6J mice were fed a high-fat diet containing arabinoxylan-dominant barley flour without β-glucan (bgl) and high β-glucan-containing barley flour (BF) for 12 weeks. We conducted oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) to measure insulin and GLP-1 concentrations. The concentration of SCFAs in the cecum contents was also determined. Furthermore, we measured mRNA expression assay GLP-1 secretion using real-time PCR. The OGTT result showed that GLP-1 concentrations at 60 min were increased in mice fed bgl and BF. Acetic acid and total SCFAs concentrations in the cecum contents were increased in both the barley groups, and butyric acid was increased in the bgl group. Furthermore, the bgl and BF groups had increased Gpr43, a receptor for SCFAs, and NeuroD which is involved in L cell differentiation. These results show arabinoxylan as well as β-glucan is involved in the SCFAs-mediated increase in GLP-1 secretion upon barley consumption.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Western diet consumption during adolescence results in hippocampus (HPC)-dependent memory impairments and gut microbiome dysbiosis. Whether these adverse outcomes persist in adulthood following healthy dietary intervention is unknown. Here we assessed the short- and long-term effects of adolescent consumption of a Western diet enriched with either sugar or both sugar and fat on metabolic outcomes, HPC function, and gut microbiota. METHODS Adolescent female rats (PN 26) were fed a standard chow diet (CHOW), chow with access to 11% sugar solution (SUG), or a junk food cafeteria-style diet (CAF) containing various foods high in fat and/or sugar. During adulthood (PN 65+), metabolic outcomes, HPC-dependent memory, and gut microbial populations were evaluated. In a subsequent experiment, these outcomes were evaluated following a 5-week dietary intervention where CAF and SUG groups were maintained on standard chow alone. RESULTS Both CAF and SUG groups demonstrated impaired HPC-dependent memory, increased adiposity, and altered gut microbial populations relative to the CHOW group. However, impaired peripheral glucose regulation was only observed in the SUG group. When examined following a healthy dietary intervention in a separate experiment, metabolic dysfunction was not observed in either the CAF or SUG group, whereas HPC-dependent memory impairments were observed in the CAF but not the SUG group. In both groups the composition of the gut microbiota remained distinct from CHOW rats after the dietary intervention. CONCLUSIONS While the metabolic impairments associated with adolescent junk food diet consumption are not present in adulthood following dietary intervention, the HPC-dependent memory impairments and the gut microbiome dysbiosis persist.

Abstract
The appropriate domestic cooking methods can retain and protect the biological properties of foods well. Thus, the objective of this study was to unravel the effect of different cooking methods on the microbiota modulatory properties of yam and their non-starch polysaccharides by an in vitro simulated digestion and fermentation model. The results showed that different cooking processes led to different changes in polysaccharide content. The polysaccharide content of yam increased by 21.3~108.2% or decreased by 12.0% compared with that of raw yam. Additionally, the soluble polysaccharides contents in all cooked yam samples significantly increased by 16.85~119.97% after in vitro digestion. The regulation of whole-yam digesta on gut microbiota was partly related with yam polysaccharides. Both yam and yam polysaccharide fermentation appeared to promote beneficial bacteria, such as Bifidobacteria, Bacteroides spp. and Megasphaera and suppressed bacterial pathogens such as Ruminococcusforques and Escherichia-Shigella. Household cooking significantly influenced the prebiotic performances of yam and yam polysaccharides by changing the heat-sensitive microbial substrates and their physiology properties. According to our results, normal-pressure steaming and normal-pressure boiling processes can retain the microbiota modulatory effects of Chinese yam.

Abstract
Wheat bran (WB) and wheat straw fibre (WSF) were administered ICR mice for 14 days. Caecal microbiota was determined by 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing. Caecal Lactobacillus johnsonii and Limosilactobacillus reuteri were high in WB diet-fed mice. L. johnsonii Wheat-1 and L. reuteri Wheat-12 strains could be isolated. WB fermentation with L. johnsonii Wheat-1 induce superoxide anion radical scavenging capacity.
Wheat bran (WB) and wheat straw fibre (WSF) are by-products of the wheat flour industry. To prove the existence of indigenous gut bacteria responsible for WB and WSF, the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice were fed a diet containing no fibre (CS), 10% WB, or 5% WSF for 14 d. The caecal microbiome was analysed by 16S rDNA (V4 region) amplicon sequencing. Typical colonies were isolated and estimated by 16S rRNA gene BLASTn analysis. The predominant amplicon sequence variants in all diet groups belonged to Bifidobacterium pseudolongum- and Faecalibaculum rodentium-like bacteria. Lactobacillus johnsonii- and Limosilactobacillus reuteri-like bacteria were high in the WB group compared with those in the CS group. Lactobacillus johnsonii Wheat-1 and L. reuteri Wheat-12 strains could be isolated. Lactobacillus johnsonii Wheat-1 exhibited good fermentation activity in 10% (w/v) WB suspension. Superoxide anion radical scavenging capacity of the WB suspension was significantly increased by the fermentation.

[PMID: 35498986 PMCID: PMC9040006 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2022.100252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Revised: 02/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The physicochemical properties of DFs are related to their digestive behaviors. DFs are degraded in the intestines due to the fermentation of gut microbiota. DFs and their metabolites exert beneficial effects on gut microbiota. The fermentation of DFs improve gut barrier function and immune function.
Whole grain is the primary food providing abundant dietary fibers (DFs) in the human diet. DFs from rice bran and wheat bran have been well documented in modulating gut microbiota. This review aims to summarize the physicochemical properties and digestive behaviors of DFs from rice bran and wheat bran and their effects on host gut microbiota. The physicochemical properties of DFs are closely related to their fermentability and digestive behaviors. DFs from rice bran and wheat bran modulate specific bacteria and promote SAFCs-producing bacteria to maintain host health. Moreover, their metabolites stimulate the production of mucus-associated bacteria to enhance the intestinal barrier and regulate the immune system. They also reduce the level of related inflammatory cytokines and regulate Tregs activation. Therefore, DFs from rice bran and wheat bran will serve as prebiotics, and diets rich in whole grain will be a biotherapeutic strategy for human health.

Abstract
Aleurone, a layer of the bran fraction, is deemed to be responsible for the positive health effects associated with the consumption of whole-grain products. Studies on rodents, pigs, and humans report beneficial effects of aleurone in five main areas: the reduction of oxidative stress, immunomodulatory effects, modulation of energy management, digestive health, and the storage of vitamins and minerals. Our study is the first aleurone supplementation study performed in horses. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an increase in the dose levels of aleurone on the postprandial glucose-insulin metabolism and the gut microbiome in untrained healthy horses. Seven adult Standardbred horses were supplemented with four different dose levels of aleurone (50, 100, 200, and 400 g/day for 1 week) by using a Latin square model with a 1-week wash out in between doses. On day 7 of each supplementation week, postprandial blood glucose-insulin was measured and fecal samples were collected. 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene sequencing was performed and QIIME2 software was used for microbiome analysis. Microbial community function was assessed by using the predictive metagenome analysis tool Phylogenetic Investigation of Communities by Reconstruction of Unobserved States (PICRUSt) and using the Metacyc database of metabolic pathways. The relative abundancies of a pathway were analyzed by using analysis of composition of microbiomes (ANCOM) in R. There was a significant dose-dependent increase in the postprandial time to peak of glucose (p = 0.030), a significant delay in the time to peak of insulin (p = 0.025), and a significant decrease in both the insulin peak level (p = 0.049) and insulin area under the curve (AUC) (p = 0.019) with increasing dose levels of aleurone, with a consideration of 200 g being the lowest significant dose. Alpha diversity and beta diversity of the fecal microbiome showed no significant changes. Aleurone significantly decreased the relative abundance of the genera Roseburia, Shuttleworthia, Anaerostipes, Faecalibacter, and Succinovibrionaceae. The most pronounced changes in the relative abundance at phyla level were seen in Firmicutes and Verrucomicrobia (downregulation) and Bacteroidetes and Spirochaetes (upregulation). The PICRUSt analysis shows that aleurone induces a downregulation of the degradation of L-glutamate and taurine and an upregulation of the three consecutive pathways of the phospholipid membrane synthesis of the Archaea domain. The results of this study suggest a multimodal effect of aleurone on glucose-insulin metabolism, which is most likely to be caused by its effect on feed texture and subsequent digestive processing; and a synergistic effect of individual aleurone components on the glucose-insulin metabolism and microbiome composition and function.

Abstract
Maize by-product from the bioethanol industry (distiller’s dried grains with solubles, DDGS) is a source of ferulated arabinoxylan (AX), which is a health-promoting polysaccharide. In the present study, AX from DDGS was fermented by a representative colonic bacterial mixture (Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium adolescentis, and Bacteroides ovatus), and the effect of the fermented AX (AX-f) on the proliferation of the cell line Caco-2 was investigated. AX was efficiently metabolized by these bacteria, as evidenced by a decrease in the polysaccharide molecular weight from 209 kDa to < 50 kDa in AX-f, the release of ferulic acid (FA) from polysaccharide chains (1.14 µg/mg AX-f), and the short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) production (277 µmol/50 mg AX). AX-f inhibited the proliferation of Caco-2 cells by 80–40% using concentrations from 125–1000 µg/mL. This dose-dependent inverse effect was attributed to the increased viscosity of the media due to the polysaccharide concentration. The results suggest that the AX-f dose range and the SCFA and free FA production are key determinants of antiproliferative activity. Using the same polysaccharide concentrations, non-fermented AX only inhibited the Caco-2 cells proliferation by 8%. These findings highlight the potential of AX recovered from the maize bioethanol industry as an antiproliferative agent once fermented by colonic bacteria.
