Background In the human diet, starch makes a significant contribution to the maintenance of
human nutrition and health due to its controlled digestibility. Starch digestion is controlled by …

Background All starch fractions not digested and absorbed in the small intestine of healthy
humans are considered resistant starch (RS), and their habitual intake has been associated …

Starchy foods are a major energy source of the human diet, their digestion is closely related
to human health. Most foods require lots of processing before eating, therefore, many factors …

Background Food is a complex system, which usually contains many different compounds.
Thus, interaction between starch and other compounds is unavoidable and often …

Polyphenols, as one group of secondary metabolite, are widely distributed in plants and
have been reported to show various bioactivities in recent year. Starch digestion not only is …

Apart from its non-toxicity, biocompatibility and biodegradability, starch has demonstrated
eminent functional characteristics, eg, forming well-defined gels/films, stabilizing …

Polyphenols are reported to modulate starch digestibility via either direct inhibition of alpha-
glycosidase digestive enzymes and/or the formation of inclusion and non-inclusion …

MicroRNA (miRNA) is a class of small noncoding RNA involved in physiological and
pathological processes via the regulation of gene expression. Naked miRNAs are unstable …

In this study, wheat starch (WS) and rice protein hydrolysates (RPHs) RPH2 and RPH4 were
subjected to hydrothermal treatment to explore the interaction between the two and the …

As well-documented inhibitors of starch digestive enzymes, dietary phenolics are less
known for the ability to modify starch structures and functionality. This study aimed to …
