Effects of Simulated Human Gastrointestinal Digestion of Two Purple-Fleshed Potato Cultivars on Anthocyanin Composition and Cytotoxicity in Colonic Cancer and Non-Tumorigenic Cells.

ABSTRACT: A dynamic human gastrointestinal (GI) model was used to digest cooked tubers from purple-fleshed Amachi and Leona potato cultivars to study anthocyanin biotransformation in the stomach, small intestine and colonic vessels. Colonic Caco-2 cancer cells and non-tumorigenic colonic CCD-112CoN cells were tested for cytotoxicity and cell viability after 24 h exposure to colonic fecal water (FW) digests (0%, 10%, 25%, 75% and 100% FW in culture media). After 24 h digestion, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry identified 36 and 15 anthocyanin species throughout the GI vessels for Amachi and Leona, respectively. The total anthocyanin concentration was over thirty-fold higher in Amachi compared to Leona digests but seven-fold higher anthocyanin concentrations were noted for Leona versus Amachi in descending colon digests. Leona FW showed greater potency to induce cytotoxicity and decrease viability of Caco-2 cells than observed with FW from Amachi. Amachi FW at 100% caused cytotoxicity in non-tumorigenic cells while FW from Leona showed no effect. The present findings indicate major variations in the pattern of anthocyanin breakdown and release during digestion of purple-fleshed cultivars. The differing microbial anthocyanin metabolite profiles in colonic vessels between cultivars could play a significant role in the impact of FW toxicity on tumor and non-tumorigenic cells.

Project description:In various plant species, many transcription factors (TFs), such as MYB, bHLH, and WD40, have been identified as regulators of anthocyanin biosynthesis in underground organs. However, the regulatory elements of anthocyanin biosynthesis in the tuberous roots of sweet potato have not been elucidated yet. Here, we selected the purple-fleshed sweet potato cultivar "Zhezi1" (ZZ P ) and its spontaneous yellow-fleshed mutant "Xinli" (XL Y ) to investigate the regulatory mechanism of the anthocyanin biosynthesis in the tuberous roots of sweet potato. By analyzing the IbMYB1 genotype in ZZ P and XL Y , we found that the IbMYB1-2, a MYB TF involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis, was missing in the XL Y genome, which might lead to an extreme decrease in anthocyanins in XL Y . A comparative transcriptome analysis of ZZ P and XL Y was conducted to find the TFs involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis in ZZ P and XL Y . The anthocyanin structural genes were significantly enriched among the differentially expressed genes. Moreover, one MYB activator (IbMYB1), one bHLH (IbbHLH2), three WRKY activator candidates (IbWRKY21, IbWRKY24, and IbWRKY44), and two MYB repressors (IbMYB27 and IbMYBx-ZZ) were highly expressed in ZZ P accompanied with anthocyanin structural genes. We also tested the expression of these TFs in six purple- and two orange-fleshed sweet potato cultivars. Interestingly, most of these TFs were significantly positively correlated with anthocyanin contents in these cultivars. The function of the anthocyanin biosynthesis repression of IbMYB27 and IbMYBx-ZZ was verified through transient co-transformation with IbMYB1 into tobacco leaves. Further functional verification of the above TFs was conducted by Y2H, BiFC, and dual-luciferase assays. These tests showed that the MYB-bHLH-WD40/MYB-bHLH-WD40-WRKY complex activated the promoter of anthocyanin structural gene IbDFR and promoters for IbWRKY44, IbMYB27, and IbMYBx-ZZ, indicating reinforcement and feedback regulation to maintain the level of anthocyanin accumulation in the tuberous roots of purple-fleshed sweet potato. These results may provide new insights into the regulatory mechanism of anthocyanin biosynthesis and accumulation in underground organs of sweet potatoes.
