Simulated gastrointestinal digestion and gluten residues<\/strong>
\nThe studies reported below show that, after simulated gastrointestinal digestion, there is not a single \u201cgluten residue,\u201d but rather a peptide profile (\u201cfingerprint\u201d) that varies as a function of:<\/p>\n

1 – species\/genotype (wheat diversity),
\n2 – food matrix (flour\/bread, etc.),
\n3 – processing (fermentation, leavening, baking),
\n4 – digestion conditions (protocol and kinetics),
\n5 – and type\/abundance of epitopes (celiac disease \/ allergy).
\nThis truly allows one to \u201cbuild a picture\u201d of how wheat diversity influences digestion and immuno-relevant potential.<\/p>\n

Key studies (with concrete results)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Practical note<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe 2020 Ogilvie study is often used as a \u201ctool\u201d to put numbers (quantities) on peptide markers, whereas Lavoignat 2024 and Boukid 2019 are more peptidomic \u201catlases\u201d (quality\/type + epitopes).
\nDi Stasio 2020 and Gianfrani 2015 are excellent for the \u201cwheat diversity \u2192 different digestibility\/immunogenicity\u201d aspect.<\/p>\n

Methodological framework (what \u201ccomplete digestion\u201d means in a standard way)
\nMany works use or are inspired by the INFOGEST protocol (international standard), which makes results comparable across studies:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 – A standardised static in vitro digestion method suitable for food \u2014 an international consensus (Minekus M. et al., 2014, Food & Function) \u2014 DOI: 10.1039\/C3FO60702J
\n2 – INFOGEST static in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal food digestion (Brodkorb A. et al., 2019, Nature Protocols) \u2014 DOI: 10.1038\/s41596-018-0119-1
\nConcluding message to include<\/strong>
\nThe response to gluten exposure does not depend on a single factor (e.g., \u201cgluten strength\u201d or \u201cancient vs modern wheat\u201d), but on the combination of genotype\/species, matrix and technological process, and above all on the final profile of residual peptides after digestion: which peptides (type), how many (abundance\/markers), and how immuno-relevant they are (epitopes).<\/p>\n

Peptidomic studies and targeted quantification studies show that both composition and release patterns of peptides change as a function of wheat type and processing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
