Structural changes of rice starch-anthocyanins complexes (V-type) and its impact on gut microbiotas and potential metabolic pathways during in vitro fermentation
Food Chemistry(2024)
Abstract
This study explored the differences in the in vitro fermentation properties of rice starch (RS) and rice starchanthocyanins complexes (RS-A). Structural characterization suggested that RS and RS-A complexes showed a V -type crystalline structure. The degree of order (DO) and degree of double helix (DD) values of RS and RS-A complexes were enhanced after fermentation. Moreover, the RS-A complexes could improve the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes , Ruminococcaceae , and up-regulate gut microbiota diversity to maintain gut homeostasis. Relative abundance of potential metabolic pathways, such as energy metabolism, digestion system, and carbohydrate degradation overexpressed in the presence of RS-A complexes. The results demonstrated that the RS-A complexes had slower fermentation rates contributing to the transport of the formed short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) to the end of the colon and that the crystallinity might be a factor influencing the utilization of the starch matrix by the gut microbiota for SCFA formation.
