Ci\u00f2 lascia pensare che il grano monococco, riportato recentemente in coltivazione in Italia dai ricercatori del Consiglio per la Ricerca e la sperimentazione in Agricoltura (CRA) di Roma e San Angelo Lodigiano, potr\u00e0 svolgere un ruolo importante nella prevenzione della celiachia, sia direttamente sotto forma di pane e pasta sia indirettamente come specie modello per lo studio del ruolo dell\u2019immunit\u00e0 innata nell\u2019insorgenza della celiachia\u201d.

\nScope: The ancient diploid Triticum monococcum is of special interest as a candidate low-toxic wheat species for celiac disease patients. Here, we investigated how an in vitro gastro-intestinal digestion, affected the immune toxic properties of gliadin from diploid compared to hexaploid wheat.
\nMethod and results: Gliadins from Triticum monococcum, and Triticum aestivum cultivars were digested using either a partial proteolysis with pepsin-chymotrypsin, or an extensive degradation that used gastrointestinal enzymes including the brush border membrane enzymes. The immune stimulatory properties of the digested samples were investigated on T-cell lines and jejunal biopsies from celiac disease patients. The T-cell response pro\ufb01le to the Triticum mono coccum gliadin was comparable to that obtained with Triticum aestivum gliadin after the partial pepsin-chymotrypsin digestion. In contrast, the extensive gastrointestinal hydrolysis drastically reduced the immune stimulatory properties of Triticum monococcum gliadin. MS-based analy- sis showed that several Triticum monococcum peptides, including known T-cell epitopes, were degraded during the gastrointestinal treatment, whereas many of Triticum aestivum gliadin survived the gastrointestinal digestion.
\nConclusion: he pattern of Triticum monococcum gliadin proteins is suf\ufb01ciently different from those of common hexaploid wheat to determine a lower toxicity in celiac disease patients following in vitro simulation of human digestion.<\/p>\n

(4) \u2026\u2026.omissis. \u201cAbstract. A growing interest in developing new strategies for preventing coeliac disease has motivated efforts to identify cereals with null or reduced toxicity. In the current study, we investigate the biological effects of ID331 Triticum monococcum gliadin-derived peptides in human Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells. Triticum aestivum gliadin derived peptides were employed as a positive control. The effects on epithelial permeability, zonulin release, viability, and cytoskeleton reorganization were investigated. Our findings confirmed that ID331 gliadin did not enhance permeability and did not induce zonulin release, cytotoxicity or cytoskeleton reorganization of Caco-2 cell monolayers. We also demonstrated that ID331 \u03c9-gliadin and its derived peptide \u03c9(105\u2013123) exerted a protective action, mitigating the injury of Triticum aestivum gliadin on cell viability and cytoskeleton reorganization. These results may represent a new opportunity for the future development of innovative strategies to reduce gluten toxicity in the diet of patients with gluten intolerance\u201d.

(5)\u2026\u2026…omissis. \u201cScientific research has several times supported and encouraged the use of grains with low toxicity in the prevention of celiac disease; in the research we are now presenting, some grains have been studied highlighting their profile regarding both the presence of peptides resistant to gastro-intestinal digestion and, among these, those containing the “toxic” fraction (table 3) \u201c \u2026.omissis Even if none of them can be considered safe for CD patients, grain with reduced amount of major T-cell stimulatory epitopes may help in the prevention of CD, since previous studies demonstrated that the amount and duration to gluten exposure are strictly linked to the initiation of this pathology.\u201d (A Comprehensive Peptidomic Approach to Characterize the Protein Pro\ufb01le of Selected Durum Wheat Genotypes: Implication for Coeliac Disease and Wheat Allergy.

Non tutto l\u2019amido \u00e8 rapidamente idrolizzato durante la digestione, la frazione che resiste alla digestione e all\u2019assorbimento nell\u2019intestino tenue umano \u00e8 definita \u201camido resistente\u201d e ha effetti fisiologici comparabili a quelli della fibra alimentare. Il grano monoccoco per\u00f2 ha un basso contenuto (0,2%) in \u201camido resistente\u201d se confrontato con il grano tenero(0,4- 0,8%) (Abdel-Aal et al. 2008).<\/p>\n

(7) \u2026.omissis. \u201cOnce the diagnosis of NCGS is reasonably reached, the management and follow-up of patients is completely obscure. A logical approach is to undertake a gluten-free dietary regimen for a limited period (e.g., six months), followed by the gradual reintroduction of gluten. During the gluten-free diet, the ingestion of prolamine peptide (gliadin)-derived from wheat, rye, barley, oats, bulgur, and hybrids of these cereal grains-should be avoided. Rice, corn, and potatoes have been the typical substitutes, but nowadays other different cereals and pseudocereals, such as amaranth, buckwheat, manioc, fonio, teff, millet, quinoa, and sorghum, can be used. After some period on a gluten-free diet, the reintroduction of gluten can start with cereals of low gluten content (e.g., oats). In addition, einkorn farro (Triticum monococcum) can be used, having no direct in vitro or ex vivo toxicity and low (7%) gluten content[41]\u201d.

(8) \u201cIl glutine che \u00e8 un composto formato dalla gliadina e glutenina che \u00e8 alla base dei prodotti da forno (pane e altro) non \u00e8, in quanto tale, assimilabile dall\u2019intestino ma deve essere ridotto agli aminoacidi componenti o piccole serie (peptidi) di essi. La riduzione avviene ad opera di diversi enzimi quali la tripsina nello stomaco, la pepsina nell\u2019intestino tenue ed altri enzimi [1]. In condizioni normali di salute l\u2019intestino espelle le parti di glutine non digerite perch\u00e9 troppo grandi per essere assimilate. La digeribilit\u00e0 del glutine non \u00e8 solamente, per\u00f2, dipendente dalla \u201cforza del glutine\u201d cio\u00e8 dalla forza dei diversi tipi di legami che \u201ccollegano\u201d le proteine del glutine ma anche dal tipo di enzimi che idrolizzano \u201cspezzettano\u201d il glutine e dall\u2019ambiente nel quale questi processi avvengono. Ad esempio, la tripsina, nello stomaco \u00e8 attivata (cio\u00e8 lavora), solo in ambiente acido. Tutti gli enzimi digestivi, inoltre, hanno la possibilit\u00e0 di lavorare meglio se direttamente a contatto con il glutine: cosa che pu\u00f2 avvenire solo negli esperimenti di laboratorio, dal momento che nello stomaco e nell\u2019intestino questi enzimi si troveranno a dover \u201clavorare\u201d su un \u201ccomplesso\u201d di cibi e non sul glutine [2]. La conoscenza della digeribilit\u00e0 del glutine \u00e8 quindi oltremodo complessa essendo affetta da molteplici fattori non ultimo la variabilit\u00e0 delle condizioni dell\u2019ambiente dove avviene (stomaco ed intestino).\u201d https:\/\/glutenlight.eu\/2019\/09\/21\/glutine-digeribilita\/.<\/p>\n

(9) \u2026.omissis. \u201cAmylase\/trypsin-inhibitors (ATIs) are putative triggers of non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS), but contents of ATIs in different wheat species were not available. Therefore, the predominant ATIs 0.19+0.53, 0.28, CM2, CM3 and CM16 in eight cultivars each of common wheat, durum wheat, spelt, emmer and einkorn grown under the same environmental conditions were quantitated by targeted liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS\/MS) and stable isotope dilution assays (SIDA) using specific marker peptides as internal standards. The results were compared to a label-free untargeted LC-MS\/MS analysis, in which protein concentrations were determined by intensity based absolute quantitation (iBAQ). Both approaches yielded similar results. Spelt and emmer had higher ATI contents than common wheat, with durum wheat in between. Only three of eight einkorn cultivars contained ATIs in very low concentrations. The distribution of ATI types was characteristic for hexaploid, tetraploid and diploid wheat species and suitable as species-specific fingerprint. The results point to a better tolerability of einkorn for NCGS patients, because of very low total ATI contents.

(10) Il contenuto proteico del grano monococco, in media 15-18%, \u00e8 superiore a quello degli altri cereali coltivati e presenta un valore nutrizionale superiore a quello di frumento tenero e frumento duro. Gli studi condotti presso l\u2019Unit\u00e0 di Ricerca per la Valorizzazione Qualitativa dei Cereali del Consiglio per la Ricerca e la Sperimentazione in Agricoltura (CRA-QCE) negli ultimi dieci anni hanno permesso di identificare numerosi aspetti peculiari e nutrizionalmente interessanti del grano monococco. Tra le caratteristiche che lo rendono unico nell\u2019ambito dei cereali a paglia abbiamo (i) l\u2019elevato contenuto in carotenoidi, precursori della vitamina A e antiossidanti naturali, che \u00e8 circa 5 volte quello del frumento tenero; (ii) l\u2019ottima disponibilit\u00e0 di tocoli (vitamina E), che \u00e8 circa 50% maggiore rispetto a frumento duro e tenero; (iii) l\u2019alto contenuto in lipidi (circa 50% in pi\u00f9 rispetto al frumento tenero), con una netta prevalenza di acidi grassi insaturi; (iv) l\u2019alta percentuale in ceneri e l\u2019elevato contenuto in minerali (particolarmente interessanti sono zinco, ferro e fosforo) e (v) un contenuto in fruttani circa 50-70% maggiore rispetto al grano tenero (Hidalgo e Brandolini, 2008). La farina di grano monococco, quasi impalpabile, presenta un caratteristico colore giallo ed \u00e8 ottima per la produzione di biscotti, snakes, fiocchi (flakes) e altri prodotti da forno (Brandolini et al., 2008; Pollini et al., 2013); esistono anche genotipi con un\u2019ottima attitudine alla panificazione (Saponaro et al., 1995; Borghi et al., 1996). Anche la qualit\u00e0 pastificatoria \u00e8 molto elevata, sia in termini di lavorabilit\u00e0 della materia prima che di qualit\u00e0 del prodotto finito: gli spaghetti e i maccheroni di grano monococco hanno una buona tenuta alla cottura e una ridotta perdita di amido rispetto a quelli a base di semole commerciali di grano duro (Brandolini et al., 2008).<\/p>\n

(11) …omissis. \u201cThe hulled wheat einkorn (Triticum monococcum L. ssp. monococcum), staple food of early farmers for many thousand years, today is cropped only in small areas of the Mediterranean region and continental Europe. The increasing attention for the nutritional quality of foods has fostered a renewed interest for this low-impact crop. The reappraisal of einkorn quality evidenced that this ancient wheat has some dietary advantages over polyploid wheats. Einkorn whole meal is poor in dietary fibre, but rich in proteins, lipids (mostly unsaturated fatty acids), fructans and trace elements, including Zn and Fe. The good concentration of several antioxidant compounds (carotenoids, tocols, conjugated polyphenols, alkylresorcinols and phytosterols) and the low beta-amylase and lipoxygenase activities (which limit antioxidants degradation during food processing) contribute to the excellent nutritional properties of its flour, superior to those of other wheats. Conversely, einkorn has relatively low bound polyphenols content and high polyphenol oxidase activity. In spite of eliciting weaker toxic reactions than other Triticum ssp., einkorn is not suitable for coeliacs. Current trends towards the consumption of functional foods suggest that this cereal may still play a significant role in human consumption, especially in the development of new or special foods with superior nutritional quality\u201d.
