Oral enzymatic detoxification system: Insights obtained from proteome analysis to understand its potential impact on aroma metabolization

2021

The oral cavity is an entry path into the body, enabling the intake of nutrients but also leading to the ingestion of harmful substances. Thus, saliva and oral tissues contain enzyme systems that enable the early neutralization of xenobiotics as soon as they enter the body. Based on recently published oral proteomic data from several research groups, this review identifies and compiles the primary detoxification enzymes (also known as xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes) present in saliva and the oral epithelium. The functions and the metabolic activity of these enzymes are presented. Then, the activity of these enzymes in saliva, which is an extracellular fluid, is discussed with regard to the…

Inter-individual retronasal aroma release variability during cheese consumption: Role of food oral processing

2014

The aim of our study was to explain inter-individual differences on in vivo aroma release during cheese consumption by oral physiological parameters. To reach this objective, 34 subjects were recruited. Their salivary flow, oral volume and velum opening were determined. Six cheddar-based melted cheeses with different fat levels and firmness were flavoured with nonan-2-one.(NO) and ethyl propanoate (EP). During their consumption (free protocol), in vivo retro nasal aroma release was followed by Atmospheric Pressure Chemical lonisation-Mass Spectrometry (APCI-MS). Chewing activity was evaluated by electromyography recordings. Bolus saliva content, mouth-coating, and bolus rheology were also d…

Multi-omics profiling reveals that eating difficulties developed consecutively to artificial nutrition in the neonatal period are associated to speci…

2015

Prolonged enteral or parenteral nutrition in neonatal periods sometimes results in eating difficulties persisting for years, with reduced food intake through the oral route and thereby reduced stimulation of the oral cavity. Aiming at describing the consequences on oral physiology, saliva of 21 children with eating difficulties (ED) was compared to that of 23 healthy controls, using various omics and targeted methods. Overall, despite heterogeneity within the groups (age, medication etc.), the three spectral methods (MALDI-TOF, SELDI-TOF, (1)H NMR) allowed discriminating ED and controls, confirming that oral stimulation by food intake plays a role in shaping the composition of saliva. Saliv…

The analyzed matrices were the commercial Italian mozzarella cheeses and domestic cheese base models. The classification of mozzarellas was performed according to their salinity, while the breakdown of cheese base models has been followed both at initial steps of digestion in artificial mouth dispositive mimicking the oral sphere and in a gut-imitating digester (TIM-1). During the breakdown of soft cheese in the digester, the estimated values for N…

Chewing bread: impact on alpha-amylase secretion and oral digestion

2017

During chewing, saliva helps in preparing food bolus by agglomerating formed particles and initiates food enzymatic breakdown. However, limited information is actually available on the adaptation of saliva composition during oral processing of complex foods, especially for foods that are sensitive to salivary enzymes. We addressed this question in the context of starch–based products and salivary alpha-amylase. The objectives were two-fold: 1) determining if salivary alpha-amylase secretion can be modulated by bread type and 2) evaluating the contribution of the oral phase in bread enzymatic breakdown.Mouthfuls of three different wheat breads (industrial, artisan and whole breads) were chew…

International audience; Epidemiological studies clearly show that a high adherence to ultra-processed products is associated with increased prevalence of diet-related chronic diseases. Ultra-processed foods are made of recombined ingredients and added with various additives. They are also characterized by the loss of food structure and micronutrient density through refining. Yet, food structure plays an essential role in food glycaemic impact and satiety potential. In a preliminary study, we showed on 98 ready-to-eat foods usually consumed by diabetic subjects that the more foods are processed the higher their glycaemic impact and the lower their satiety potential. The objective of this stu…

The aim of this work was to adapt a rapid and simple instrumental method to the quantification of food remaining after the in vivo ingestion of a solid food. This method was investigated in 12 non-trained subjects who consumed four melted cheeses differing in terms of their fat and water contents. Mouth coating was determined by fluorescence measurements using curcumin, an oil-soluble dye that had been added to the cheeses during their preparation. The results obtai…

Role of saliva and oral processing in sensory perception of maltodextrin solutions

2016

In human, food oral processing plays a role in our perception of taste, aroma and texture. This study aimed at investigating the role played by individual salivary flow rate and composition and oral mechanisms in the sensory perception of sweetened and thickened solutions. Thirty one subjects were selected with high differences in salivary flow rates and composition (protein concentration and amylase activity). They consumed twelve thickened solutions (varying independently in maltodextrin type (2), viscosity level (2) and sucrose level (3)) and rated the perceived thickness and sweetness intensities. After rating, boluses were collected in order to evaluate moistening by saliva. Residual o…

The aim of this work was to clarify the influence of the properties (firmness and fat content) of a solid processed model cheese on in vivo aroma release while considering the role of the in-mouth process during both mastication and post-swallowing steps, and the hydrophobicity of aroma compounds, on a large number of well characterized subjects. In vivo aroma release was studied on 44 subjects who freely consumed six processed model cheeses flavoured with the same concentration of nonan-2-one and ethyl propanoate. Globally, an increase in firmness induced an increase in chewing duration, amount of saliva incorporated into the food bolus, total amount of aroma released and rate of release. …

The Relationship Between Salivary Redox, Diet, and Food Flavor Perception.

2021

The mouth is the gateway for entrance of food and microorganisms into the organism. The oral cavity is bathed by saliva, which is thus the first fluid that food and microorganisms will face after their entrance. As a result, saliva plays different functions, including lubrication, predigestion, protection, detoxification, and even transport of taste compounds to chemoreceptors located in the taste buds. To ensure its function of protection, saliva contains reactive harmful compounds such as reactive oxygen species that are controlled and neutralized by the antioxidant activity of saliva. Several antioxidant molecules control the production of molecules such as reactive oxygen compounds, neu…

Abstract of oral presentation; Fat consumption is described as one of the major reasons for the obesity epidemic. Fat sensitivity may. be one of the causes as a recent study shows that subjects hyposensitive to fat perception have a higher. Body Mass Index value than hypersensitive ones1. Moreover interest on fat perception in the mouth has. grown especially after the discovery of fat taste receptors on the tongue and their possible implications in. fat metabolism. This gives another dimension for fat perception as it was always thought to have only. olfactory and textural characteristics. However, this perception is still unclear and other factors could play. a role in it. During consumpti…

Using food comfortability to compare food's sensory characteristics expectations of elderly people with or without oral health problems

International audience; Food consumption is by far the most important point where food's organoleptic properties can be perceived and can elicit sensory pleasure. Ageing is often accompanied by oral impairments. Those impairments may impact food perception by changing texture perception and the release of flavor components, which have a significant impact on food acceptability. The present study aimed at evaluating the impact of oral health on the perception of food comfortability in an elderly population. This was achieved by asking elderly people with a good oral health and elderly people with poor oral health to rate six cereal products and six meat products using a food comfortability q…

Saliva is the first biological fluid in contact with food during consumption. As such, it might exert an important role on the release of volatile compounds from foods into the oral cavity. Thus, understanding this role could help to explain aroma perception, food preferences and dietary intake in human. To date, most of the studies performed on the field have employed compositionally simple artificial salivas or pools mixing human salivas from different individuals. Nevertheless, the whole complexity of human saliva and the effect of interindividual differences on aroma release remains underexplored. Therefore, there is a need to gain a better understanding of the effect of human saliva co…

In-mouth mechanism leading to the perception of fat and its consequence on post-prandial lipid metabolism in humans. The particular role of saliva

2014

In humans, the in-mouth perception of dietary fat in food is a complex process involving many sensory modalities (texture, aroma, taste and trigeminal). During food oral processing, a bolus is formed in which saliva is significantly incorporated thus contributing significantly to the perception of fat. In particular, it has been shown that the levels of some salivary characteristics (lipolysis, lysozyme, flux, antioxidant status, level of carbonic anhydrase and proteins) are related to the sensitivity of the individual to triolein and oleic acid. Interestingly, the involvement of some of these salivary variables in the perceived intensity and preference towards model oil emulsions was also …

Retro-nasal aroma release is correlated with variations in the in-mouth air cavity volume after empty deglutition.

In our first experiment, we looked for changes in IMAC volume after saliva deglutition in 12 healthy subjects. The mean IMAC volume was measured after empty deglutition using an acoustic pharyngometer device. Based on the time course of the IMAC volume after swallowing, we discerned two groups of subjects. The first group displayed a small, constant IMAC volume (2.26 mL ±0.62) that corresponded to a high tongue position. The second group displa…

A Method to Evaluate Chewing Efficiency in Infants Through Food Bolus Characterization: A Preliminary Study

2015

Chewing skills develop greatly during the two first years of life, but the evolution of masticatory efficiency has never been directly measured so far. A bottleneck for such study is the difficulty in using the chew-and-spit method with infants and very young children. Herein, we propose a new method based on a model gel enclosed in a food feeder, which has been assessed with adult subjects. Subjects chewed and compressed the gel either alone or enclosed in two different feeders. Analysis of the number of particles and particle area distribution revealed that one feeder,made from silicone teat, interfered with bolus breakdown. However, similar results were observed between experiments in a …

Contribution of exofacial thiol groups in the reducing activity of Lactococcus lactis

2010

Lactococcus lactis can decrease the redox potential at pH 7 (E(h7)) from 200 to -200 mV in oxygen free Man-Rogosa-Sharpe media. Neither the consumption of oxidizing compounds or the release of reducing compounds during lactic acid fermentation were involved in the decrease in E(h7) by the bacteria. Thiol groups located on the bacterial cell surface appear to be the main components that are able to establish a greater exchange current between the Pt electrode and the bacteria. After the final E(h7) (-200 mV) was reached, only thiol-reactive reagents could restore the initial E(h7) value. Inhibition of the proton motive force showed no effect on maintaining the final E(h7) value. These result…

Salivary composition in obese vs normal-weight subjects: towards a role in postprandial lipid metabolism?

2015

In the pathophysiological context of obesity, oral exposure to dietary fat can modulate lipid digestion and absorption but underlying in-mouth mechanisms have not been clearly identified. Therefore we tested the hypothesis that salivary components related to dietary fat sensitivity would differ according to BMI and postprandial lipid metabolism in young men. Saliva was collected from 9 normal-weight (BMI=22.3±0.5 kg/m2) and 9 non-morbid obese (BMI=31.7±0.3 kg/m2) men before a 8 h-postprandial metabolic exploration test involving the consumption of a 40 g fat-meal, in which obese subjects revealed a delayed postprandial lipid metabolism.

Intact plastids from cell suspensions of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Muscat de Frontignan, free of detectable contamination by other particles as judged by the distribution of organelle-specific marker enzymes and by electron microscopy, exhibit geranyl-diphosphate synthase activity (EC 2.5.1.1). This synthase activity remains stable after tryptic digestion of unlysed organelles and is enhanced by plastid disruption. We conclude that the enzyme is located within the organelle. The possibility of an isopentenyl diphosphate/dimethylallyl diphosphate translocating system which would play a major role in the regulation of monoterpene metabolism is discussed.

Flavour & saliva interaction – a brief overview

2015

Saliva is a highly complex body fluid composed of many proteins, peptides, small organic molecules and ions. Saliva is secreted at rest and during eating by major and minor salivary glands. Resting saliva is continuously bathing our oral cavity and as such stimulates our taste receptors playing thus a role in taste sensitivity against some active taste substances. Beside, during eating, foods are chewed and a significant level of stimulated saliva is rapidly incorporated in the bolus. This in-mouth phenomena impact on flavor release and thus perception through saliva-food physical interactions but also through the action of biological compounds (enzymes mainly) against the food matrix. Sali…

In-mouth mechanism leading to the perception of fat in humans: from detection to preferences. The particular role of saliva

2013

In humans, the perception of fat in food is a complex process involving many sensory modalities (texture, aromaand flavour). Themouth is the first place in which the process of digestion begins. During this process, a bolus is formed in which saliva is significantly incorporated. For solids and semi-solid fatty matrices, saliva and the shear forces applied during mastication contribute to their breakdown and/or destabilisation in emulsified systems. These mechanisms are often dependent on the fat content of the food and thus play an important role in not only the perception of texture but also the release of compounds responsible for the flavour of “fat”. In addition, saliva is directly inv…

In-mouth mechanisms leading to flavor release and perception.

2011

Review; International audience; During eating, foods are submitted to two main oral processeschewing, including biting and crushing with teeth, and progressive impregnation by saliva resulting in the formation of a cohesive bolus and swallowing of the bolus. Texture influences the chewing behavior, including mastication and salivation, and in turn, these parameters influence texture perception and bolus formation. During this complex mouth process, flavor compounds are progressively released from the food matrix. This phenomenon is mainly dependent on the food texture, the composition and in-mouth breakdown, and on saliva impregnation and activity, but an individual's anatomical and physiol…

Role of saliva on wine aroma release by using in vitro static and dynamic headspace conditions

2014

Unlike other food products, the number of studies regarding aroma release during wine consumption using in vitro or in vivo approaches is very scarce, and research on the role of different intra-oral factors (such as saliva), which might be involved in aroma release during wine drinking is still incipient (1). Although the relatively short-intra-oral period of consumption of liquid foods, could indicate a limited effect of saliva on aroma release, the formation of intra-oral (and pharyngeal) aroma depots (2), and the fact that natural swallowing of saliva is continuously performed, makes the idea that saliva might exert an important role in the perception of wine aroma during consumption pe…

Variability of human saliva composition: possible relationships with fat perception and liking

2012

International audience; Saliva is the medium that bathes the taste receptors in the oral cavity and in which aroma and taste compounds are released when food is eaten. Moreover saliva contains enzymes and molecules that can interact with food. To date, little research has been devoted to the intra- and inter-individual variabilities of these components and their inter-relationships. The first aim of this work was to study intra- and inter-individual variabilities over time in the composition of molecules likely to interact with food in the mouth, with particular focus on molecules that might interact with fat. The second aim was to try to relate this composition to a liking for fat and its …

Understanding the role of saliva in aroma release from wine by using static and dynamic headspace conditions.

2014

The aim of this work was to determine the role of saliva in wine aroma release by using static and dynamic headspace conditions. In the latter conditions, two different sampling points (t = 0 and t = 10 min) corresponding with oral (25.5 °C) and postoral phases (36 °C) were monitored. Both methodologies were applied to reconstituted dearomatized white and red wines with different nonvolatile wine matrix compositions and a synthetic wine (without matrix effect). All of the wines had the same ethanol concentration and were spiked with a mixture of 45 aroma compounds covering a wide range of physicochemical characteristics at typical wine concentrations. Two types of saliva (human and artifici…

Physiological routes explaining human differences in liking for margarines, butter, melanges, and other water in oil emulsions

2016

Fat perception and liking is subject of growing interest from both the industries and the scientific community. Despite numerous studies relating consumer liking with product formulation, differences in consumer perception need to be explored in more details. One hypothesis is that individual oral physiology could better explain differences in liking than only composition and socio-economic data. The aim of this review is to explore the different physiological parameters which could be involved in fat liking and fat perception with a particular focus on spreads and to analyse the links already evidenced in the literature between food composition and structure, physiological behaviour in fun…

Saliva in Food … How does it drive sensory perception?

2014

Saliva is a highly complex body fluid composed of many proteins, peptides, small organic molecules and ions. Saliva is produced and secreted by major and minor salivary glands to protect the mouth and to participate to the digestion. Generally distinction is made between resting saliva that is a result of autonomic stimulation, and stimulated saliva that is produced during chewing and taste stimulation. The link between saliva and sensory perception can be thus regarded through two main angles: the role of resting saliva as a background taste and the mechanistic role of saliva during eating. Indeed resting saliva (and its components) is continuously bathing our oral cavity and as such stimu…

Salivary Composition Is Associated with Liking and Usual Nutrient Intake

Salivary flow and composition have an impact on flavor perception. However, very few studies have explored the relationship between saliva, individual liking and usual dietary intake. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association of salivary flow and composition with both a liking for fat, saltiness and sweetness and the usual nutrient intake in an adult French population. Liking for fat, saltiness, and sweetness were inferred from liking scores obtained during hedonic tests on 32 food products among 282 French adults participating in the Nutrinet- Santé Study. Before assessing liking, resting saliva was collected. Standard biochemical analyses were performed to assess specific compo…

Changing cheese composition (more or less fat) and texture (soft to firm) modifies in vivo release of aroma compounds as a function of their hydrophobicity. An increase in cheese firmness induced an increase in the total amount of aroma released. A higher fat content led to a lower amount of release of the more hydrophobic compound.

- Objectives and studyIn the neonatal period, some severe digestive diseases require the cessation of oral feeding and the use of enteral or parenteral nutrition for prolonged periods. In some cases, this by-pass of the oral cavity during the early stages of feeding results in the development of so-called oral disorders (OD). Oral disorders may persist for years after healing of the causal disease, and are expressed for example by an exacerbated gag reflex, difficulties in chewing and swallowing and high food selectivity.The aim of this study were to describe the consequences on oral physiology of oral by-pass and enteral nutrition in a population of 21 children who suffered oral disorder (…

Development of a rapid and highly sensitive biochemical method for the measurement of fungal spore viability. An alternative to the CFU method

2001

Abstract 1 A biochemical method, based on dehydrogenase activity (DHA) measurement, has been developed as an alternative to colony forming unit (CFU) enumeration, for assessing the viability of fungal spores. In viable cells, a tetrazolium salt (MTT) is reduced to a coloured formazan (MTTf) by cellular dehydrogenase enzymes. From the colorimetric assay developed by Mosmann for mammalian cells, the procedure has been adapted and optimised using P. digitatum spores as a model. Propan-2-ol has been selected as the best solvent to extract the MTTf from the spores. The sensitivity of the method has been considerably increased by determining the optimal conditions of incubation for the MTT reduct…

New determinants of olfactory habituation

2017

AbstractHabituation is a filter that optimizes the processing of information by our brain in all sensory modalities. It results in an unconscious reduced responsiveness to continuous or repetitive stimulation. In olfaction, the main question is whether habituation works the same way for any odorant or whether we habituate differently to each odorant? In particular, whether chemical, physical or perceptual cues can limit or increase habituation. To test this, the odour intensity of 32 odorants differing in physicochemical characteristics was rated by 58 participants continuously during 120s. Each odorant was delivered at a constant concentration. Results showed odorants differed significantl…

Food consumption is by far the most important point where food's organoleptic properties can be perceived and can elicit sensory pleasure. Ageing is often accompanied by oral impairments. Those impairments may impact food perception by changing texture perception and the release of flavor components, which have a significant impact on food acceptability. The present study aimed at evaluating the impact of oral health on the perception of food comfortability in an elderly population. This was achieved by asking elderly people with a good oral health and elderly people with poor oral health to rate six cereal products and six meat products using a food comfortability questionnaire.

During chewing, the food is comminuted by the combined action of chewing and saliva to form a bolus. The particle size of the bolus is reduced thanks to the action of the tongue and the teeth and the saliva is continuously produced by the salivary glands for humidifying and impregnating the food. Saliva impregnates and lubricates the bowl and also allows cohesion of the particles to prepare the step of swallowing. During food oral processing, the compounds responsible for food flavour and taste are released durin…

Fat perception is assumed to result, at least in part, from in-mouth non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) detection. The aim of this study was to better understand how human oral physiology may govern the sensory sensitivity to NEFAs. For this purpose, the detection thresholds for oleic acid were determined for 17 human subjects with highly varying salivary and oral characteristics, and the thresholds were related to their oral and salivary characteristics with conventional and multidimensional data analysis. These thresholds were tested on a dairy oil-in-water emulsion that was specifically designed to avoid biases caused by differences in the initial structure of the emulsion as a function …

Flavour release and perception

2012

Flavour perception is a complex combination of the olfactory, gustatory and trigeminal sensations perceived during eating. During this eating process, tastants must be dissolved into saliva to be transported to the taste bud receptor cell membranes and aroma compounds have to be released in the oral cavity then transferred to the nasal cavity to reach the olfactory receptors. This release highly depends on food composition and structure, on the molecular properties of the stimuli but also on physiological characteristics of individuals and mastication behaviour. However, interactions occur between texture, taste and aroma perception at different levels: physic-chemical interactions in the f…

Prospects for the microbial production of food flavours

1996

The microbial production of natural flavours has been extensively studied during the past decade, and some processes are currently being exploited commercially. However, in the case of flavour compounds such as lactones and some aromatic compounds, the lack of basic information on their metabolism, as well as their high toxicity, are two main barriers to industrial production. The development of novel and cheap production processes, such as solid-state fermentation, may help overcome some of the current limitations of microbial flavour production, as well as widening the spectrum of biotechnologically accessible compounds.

In vitro digestion of two age-tailored dairy products in the aging gastrointestinal tract

2023

For older adults (> 65 years old), undernutrition is a severe health problem that can impact the quality of life, induce or aggravate the development of diseases, and reduce life expectancy. Undernutrition can be defined as an inadequate intake of dietary energy and proteins combined with a low muscle mass. Diet-induced muscle mass and strength loss in older adults may be due to insufficient protein intake. Therefore, older adults need to increase the amount of high-quality ingested proteins, particularly foods rich in leucine, to promote muscle health. However, it is still unclear if changes in protein digestibility and absorption kinetics in old age may affect the anabolic effect of high-…

Glucosamine measurement as indirect method for biomass estimation of Cunninghamella elegans grown in solide state cultivation conditions

2001

Glucosamine measurement has been tested as the indirect method to estimate the biomass produced by Cunninghamella elegans during solid state cultivation (SSC). The independence of this cell constituent content from the age and the conditions of the culture have been verified. The influence of the medium composition, in particular the nature of the carbon source on glucosamine amount is presented. Glucosamine can be considered as a well-adapted biomass indicator, with the necessity to establish for each medium tested a prior correlation between biomass and glucosamine amount. This correlation should be defined in submerged conditions before applying the biomass estimating method in SSC.

The effect of two composition factors (sugar and CO(2)) was investigated on both the sensory and physicochemical properties of drinks by studying in vitro and in vivo aroma release. Sensory results revealed that the presence of CO(2) increased aroma perception regardless of the sugar content. In agreement with volatility parameters, in vivo measurements showed that carbonated drinks released a greater quantity of aroma compounds in the nose space than non-carbonate…

Effet de l'âge sur les consommations alimentaires et les raisons de non-consommation : résultats d'une enquête menée auprès de 32 000 adultes âgés de…

2017

National audience; Introduction et but de l'étude : S'il existe un certain nombre d'études ayant décrit les consommations alimentaires au sein de la population française dans différentes classes d'âge (eg, étude INCA3, 2017, pour la plus récente), très peu se sont intéressées aux raisons de non-consommation de tel ou tel type d'aliment, et notamment à l'évolution de ces raisons de non-consommation au cours de l'avancée en âge. Matériel et méthodes : 32 696 volontaires enrôlés dans la cohorte française NutriNet-Santé (20-80 ans ; 76% de femmes) ont évalué leur fréquence de consommation de 21 catégories d'aliments (eg, viande ; poisson & fruits de mer ; légumes crus…). En cas de non-consommat…

Mécanismes en bouche et perception du gras chez l'homme : de la détection aux préférences

2012

National audience; Chez l’homme, la perception du gras de l’aliment est un mécanisme complexe faisant appel à de nombreuses modalités sensorielles (texture, arômes et saveur). Dans ce contexte, la bouche joue un rôle important. En effet elle est le tout premier lieu où commence le processus de digestion de l’aliment, lieu où il est déstructuré et perçu. Elle est ainsi le siège d’un nombre important d’évènements physiques, chimiques et biologiques vis à vis de cet aliment [1]. Au cours de ce processus, un bol alimentaire se forme dans lequel de la salive est incorporée de manière très significative [1]. A ce titre la salive est donc un élément central de la perception sensorielle de l’alimen…
