Abstract
The colonization and development of the gut microbiome in dairy calves play a crucial role in their overall health and future productivity. Despite the widely proposed benefits of inulin-related products on the host, there is insufficient information about how supplementing fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) affects the colonization and development of the gut microbiome in calves. In a randomized intervention trial involving newborn male Holstein dairy calves, we investigated the effect of FOS on the calf hindgut microbiome, short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), growth performance, and the incidence of diarrhea. The daily administration of FOS exhibited a time-dependent increase in the ADG and the concentration of SCFA. Concurrently, FOS delayed the natural decline of Bifidobacterium, promoting the maturation and stabilization of the hindgut microbiome. These findings not only contribute to a theoretical understanding of the judicious application of prebiotics but also hold significant practical implications for the design of early life dietary interventions in the rearing of dairy calves.

Goat milk-derived short chain peptides: Peptide LPYV as species-specific characteristic and their versatility bioactivities by MOF@Fe 3O 4@GO mesoporous magnetic-based peptidomics. Food Res Int 2023; 164:112442. [PMID: 36738007 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2022.112442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 12/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Goat milk as an ideal substitute for human milk has not been sufficiently explored. An in-situ synthesized MOF@Fe3O4@GO was demonstrated as a magnetic mesoporous adsorbent for efficiently enriching short chain peptides (SCPs) in milk compared with the routine solid phase extraction approach with graphite carbon black or C18 as the packing material in terms of the number of enriched SCPs and data stability. A total of 61 and 126 SCPs were identified and quantified in bovine milk (0.09-89.34 μg L-1) and goat milk (10.5-1267.06 μg L-1), respectively, and peptide LPYV can be used as a potential marker for adulteration of goat milk. Relative high expression of chymotrypsin and pepsin by EnzymePredictor analysis could partially elaborate the reason of the abundance of SCPs in goat milk. Compared with bovine milk, further bioinformatics analysis indicated that goat milk could own higher nutritional value because of relative higher concentrations (>1 mg/L) of SCPs (LLV, FL, LVYP) with confirmed bioactivities including angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, antioxidant, dipeptidylpeptidase (DPP) III and DPP IV inhibitor, etc. Overall, this study opened a novel avenue for understanding versatility benefit of dairy products from a perspective of SCPs by using a developed MOF@Fe3O4@GO mesoporous magnetic-based peptidomics.

Curr Res Food Sci 2022; 5:2033-2044.

Abstract
Garlic saccharides have prebiotic activity, but the association between their function and structure is still poorly known. In present study, four different garlic saccharides were obtained from garlic polysaccharides (GPs) after acidolysis by ultrafiltration. Obtained GPs were constituted by different monosaccharides, among which fructose and glucose were the main components, while galactose was a major component of GPs-U6. All four saccharides were partly degraded by the simulated digestive system, and most could reach the large intestine to be utilized by the gut microbiota. Except for GPs-U6, the other three garlic saccharide fractions had good prebiotic activity in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, GPs-U0.3 with lower molecular weight (Mw) showed better prebiotic activity, including promoting the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Bifidobacterium, Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 group and Phoscolarctobacterium, and inhibiting the growth of potentially harmful bacteria. In addition, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Pathway enrichment analysis showed that GPs-U0.3 could reduce the risk of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Overall, this findings of the present study revealed the digestive properties of GPs, as well as the potential association between their chemical structures and fermentation characteristics by gut microbiota. Thus, it can be stated that GPs-U0.3 can be used as potential prebiotics in functional foods, which provides a theoretical basis for the targeted preparation of functionalized garlic saccharides. Four garlic saccharides of different Mw could pass through the digestive system and reach the large intestine safely. GPs-U2, GPs-U1 and GPs-U0.3 significantly modulate the composition and abundance of gut microbiota. GPs-U2, GPs-U1 and GPs-U0.3 significantly enhance the production of SCFAs. GPs-U0.3 exhibit better probiotic activity in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a metabolic disorder that has become a major threat to public health. Epidemiological and experimental studies have suggested that whey protein isolate (WPI) and xylitol (XY) play an important role on T2D. This manuscript hypothesizes the supplementation of whey protein and xylitol complex (WXY) has the hypoglycemic and hyperlipidemia effect of T2D mice induced by the conjoint action of a high-fat diet and streptozotocin (STZ) by modulating of intestinal microbiota. The mice with diabetes displayed higher levels of fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin, glycosylated hemoglobin, total triglycerides, total cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase and other serum parameters than the normal mice. Treatment with WXY for 6 weeks significantly modulated the levels of FBG and insulin, improved insulin sensitivity, pancreas impairment and liver function in T2D mice, and the effect was better than that observed with WPI and XY groups. Moreover, supplementation with WXY significantly changed the diversity and composition of the intestinal microbiota in T2D mice and restored the intestinal bacteria associated with T2D (Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Lactobacillus). This may be a potential mechanism for alleviating T2D symptoms. Spearman correlation analysis showed that the relative abundances of specific genera (Turicibacter, Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group, Lactobacillus, Candidatus_Saccharimonas, Faecalibaculum and Coriobacteriaceae_UCG-002) were correlated with the levels of blood glucose and serum parameters. Therefore, WXY may be considered a promising dietary supplement for T2D treatment in the future.

Abstract
High-carbohydrate reduced muscle hardness and increased abdominal fat accumulation. Two oligosaccharides restored the fillet hardness of fish fed with high-carbohydrate diet. Galacto-oligosaccharides increased essential amino acids and delicious amino acids. Xylo-oligosaccharide promoted growth performance and alleviated fat accumulation. Oligosaccharides can be used as potential additives to regulate flesh quality.
High level of carbohydrate in aquafeed could achieve cost-sparing effect, but it may cause adverse effects on flesh quality of aquatic products. An eight-week trial was conducted to investigate whether oligosaccharides-supplementation, including Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) and xylo-oligosaccharide (XOS), could systematically improve the growth performance, texture characteristics and nutrition composition of Nile tilapia fed with high-carbohydrate diet. The results indicated that GOS-supplementation improved the amino acid composition, while XOS-supplementation showed beneficial effects on growth performance. High-carbohydrate diet had adverse effects on fillet texture, while oligosaccharide-supplementation regulated the expression of muscle development-related genes to help restoring muscle texture properties. Furthermore, either high-carbohydrate or addition of oligosaccharides could change the intestinal microbiota composition and their metabolites. Further correlation analysis suggested that intestinal microbiota may account for the improvement in fish growth condition and texture characteristics. Application of oligosaccharides may be an innovative strategy for flesh quality modulation in aquaculture.

Abstract
Goat milk and oligosaccharides play important roles in gastrointestinal health. A combination of goat milk with three oligosaccharides, stachyose (STS), fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS), and a prebiotics mixture (FGS), was fed to mice. Changes and functions of the microbiota, short chain fatty acid (SCFA) concentrations, and immune gene expression in the small intestines were determined. The FOS treatment increased the beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, the FGS treatment helped stabilize the microbial community, and the STS treatment significantly enhanced microbial diversity and the growth of Bacteroidetes. The oligosaccharide treatments regulated the gene expression levels of the immune factors tumor necrosis factor alpha (Tnfα), granzyme B (Gzmb), perforin (Prf), and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (Ahr). Stachyose significantly increased the concentrations of acetate and propionate compared with other treatments. These findings demonstrate that STS is the preferred carbon source for microbiota, slightly modulates SCFA production, and results in low immunogenicity in the small intestines of mice.
