PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2023; 200:107742. [PMID: 37207492 DOI: 10.1016/j.plaphy.2023.107742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Revised: 04/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/21/2023]
Abstract
Anthocyanins and selenium (Se) play critical roles in antioxidant, anticancer, antibacterial, and antiviral treatments. Previous studies indicate that colored-grain wheat accumulates more Se than regular wheat, and Se synergistically promotes anthocyanin synthesis. However, the mechanism through which Se regulates anthocyanin synthesis remains unclear. We studied anthocyanin accumulation during the grain-filling stage of colored-grain wheat development by employing transcriptomics and metabolomics. We show that Se biofortification increased the concentrations of Se, anthocyanin, chlorophyll a and b, and carotenoids in colored-grain wheat. Genes related to biosynthesis of anthocyanins, phenylpropanoids biosynthesis, and flavonoids biosynthesis were significantly upregulated after Se treatment, which led to the accumulation of anthocyanin metabolites in colored-grain wheat. Genetic alterations in the expression profiles of several genes and transcription factors were observed, which slowed down lignin and proanthocyanidin biosynthesis and accelerated anthocyanin synthesis. Our results deepen the understanding of anthocyanin metabolism in Se-treated colored-grain wheat, which will likely promote harvest of these varieties.

Liu Y, Huang S, Meng T, Wang Y, Zhang Z. Effects of steam explosion on the nutritional and functional properties of black-grained wheat bran and its application. JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2023; 103:2175-2185. [PMID: 36541582 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.12401] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, an increasing interest in healthy functional foods has been documented among health-conscious consumers. Steam explosion (SE)-treated black-grained wheat (BGW) bran was explored for the development of chiffon cakes with high nutritional and functional value. RESULTS The content of crude fat and total starch decreased with increasing SE pressure, whereas water-holding capacity and antioxidant activity increased, suggesting SE at 0.6-1.0 MPa could be an effective technique for enhancing the nutritional and functional properties of wheat bran. The protein, iron, zinc, manganese, selenium, and soluble dietary fiber contents, the water-holding, oil-binding, swelling, cholesterol binding, and cation-exchange capacities, and antioxidant activity of SE BGW bran were better than those of SE white-grained wheat bran. The addition of SE bran (0.8 MPa) to flour significantly decreased the peak viscosity, final viscosity, and setback and increased the pasting temperature. The effect of SE bran on the pasting properties of low-gluten and medium-gluten flour was stronger than that of high-gluten flour. SE BGW bran altered the physicochemical properties of chiffon cakes. When 6% SE BGW bran (0.8 MPa) was added, chiffon cakes exhibited good specific volume, hardness, chewiness, and other sensory qualities. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that SE at 0.6-1.0 MPa is an effective technique for enhancing the nutritional and functional properties of wheat bran. SE BGW bran can be alternatives to food materials for developing health functional cereal-based products. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

The Effect of Fresh Kale ( Brassica oleracea var. sabellica) Addition and Processing Conditions on Selected Biological, Physical, and Chemical Properties of Extruded Snack Pellets. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28041835. [PMID: 36838822 PMCID: PMC9964093 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28041835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the addition of fresh kale and processing conditions on extruded pellet antioxidant activity and selected physicochemical properties. The results of the applied DPPH, FRAP, and TPC methods indicated that, for both 60 and 100 rpm screw speeds, snack pellet antioxidant activity and phenolic content were strongly linked to the fresh kale content, and these properties increased with the addition of this plant. The amount of fresh kale and the applied processing variables (extruder screw speed and the moisture content of the raw material blends) were also found to significantly affect the water absorption index, water solubility index, fat absorption index, fatty acid profile, and basic chemical composition of the obtained extrudates. The sample with the highest phenolic content (72.8 μg GAE/g d.w.), the most advantageous chemical composition (protein, ash, fat, carbohydrates, and fiber content), and high antioxidant properties was produced at a fresh kale content of 30%, a 36% moisture content, and a 100 rpm screw speed. The following phenolic acids were identified in this sample: protocatechuic, 4-OH-benzoic, vanillic, syringic, salicylic, caffeic, coumaric, ferulic, and sinapic. Sinapic acid was the prevailing phenolic acid.

Plant-Based Meat Analogues from Alternative Protein: A Systematic Literature Review. Foods 2022; 11:foods11182870. [PMID: 36140998 PMCID: PMC9498552 DOI: 10.3390/foods11182870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2022] [Revised: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to conduct a systematic literature review (SLR) of the research performed in the plant-based meat analogues area. Historical, current, and future tendencies are discussed. The paper offers a comprehensive SLR coupled with a bibliometric analysis of the publication from 1972 to January 2022. The articles were obtained using a research string and precise inclusion and exclusion criteria from two prominent databases, Scopus and Web of Science (WoS). The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) flow technique was used to describe the data screening and selection. In total, 84 publications were selected for further analysis after a thorough literature assessment. From this study, six main themes were identified: (1) objectives of the study; (2) type of plant protein; (3) product type; (4) added ingredients; (5) texturization technique; and (6) quality assessment considered in the studies. Recent trends in publication imply that meat analogue technology is gaining prominence. This review revealed significant research on improving meat analogues via texturization. Even though extrusion is used industrially, the technique is still in its infancy and needs improvement. Future studies should focus more on fiber and protein-protein interactions, macromolecule conformation and mechanisms, diversifying or improving current methods, sensory attributes, and gastrointestinal absorption rate of each novel protein ingredient.

Abstract
Due to its good dietary role, barley has attracted a growing amount of interest for the manufacture of functional foods in recent years. In barley, a number of bioactive components, including as phenolic compounds, have been discovered, and barley extrudates could be used to formulate various processed foods, including ready-to-eat cereals, baby, and pet foods and support nutritionally balanced diets. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of extrusion processing on resistant starch (RS), glycemic index (GI), and antioxidant compounds of barley flour. The L* and ΔE values of barley flours decreased significantly (p < 0.05) after extrusion is done at 150 and 180°C. The a* and b* values, however, increased after extrusion. Extrusion increased antioxidant activity (AOA), metal chelating activity (MCA), and ABTS+ scavenging activity, whereas total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoids content (TFC) decreased. Barley extrudates at 150 and 180°C showed decreased TPC by 16.4–34.2% and 23.4–38.1%. Moreover, improved RS and reduced GI values were recorded for barley extrudates as compared to barley non-extrudates. Therefore, extrusion of barley could be an alternative to produce pregelatinized barley flour with improved RS low GI values and improved antioxidant potential.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2021; 12:748523. [PMID: 34733304 PMCID: PMC8560013 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2021.748523] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2021] [Accepted: 09/10/2021] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
In Se-deficient populations, Selenium- (Se-) enriched wheat is a source of Se supplementation, and Se content can be improved by agronomic biofortification. Thus, black-grained wheat (BGW) and white-grained wheat (WGW) (as the control) were grown in Se naturally contained soils at different concentrations (11.02, 2.21, 2.02, and 0.20 mg·kg-1). Then, a field experiment was conducted to assess agronomic performance, the concentration of microelements and heavy metals, and the uptake and distribution of Se in the BGW under the application of Se ore powder. The results showed that the grain yield and grain Se concentration of wheat respectively show a significant increase and decrease from high Se to low Se areas. Higher grain yield and crude protein content were observed in Se-rich areas. The soil application of Se ore powder increased wheat grain yield and its components (biomass, harvest index, grain number, and 1,000 kernels weight). The concentrations of Zn, Fe, Mn, total Se, and organic Se in the grains of wheat were also increased, but Cu concentration was decreased. The concentrations of Pb, As, Hg, and Cr in wheat grains were below the China food regulation limits following the soil application of Se ore powder. Compared with the control, Se ore powder treatment increased the uptake of Se in various parts of wheat plants. More Se accumulation was observed in roots following Se ore powder application, with a smaller amount in grains. In addition, compared with the control, BGW had significantly higher concentrations of Zn, Fe, and Mn and accumulated more Se in grains and shoots and less Se in roots. The results indicate that wheat grown in Se-rich areas increases its grain yield and crude protein content. The soil application of Se ore powder promotes wheat growth and grain yield. Compared with WGW, BGW accumulated more Se in grains and had a higher concentration of organic Se in grains. In conclusion, the application of Se ore powder from Ziyang as Se-enriched fertilizer could be a promising strategy for Se biofortification in the case of wheat, and BGW is the most Se-rich potential genotype.
