General introduction Plant carbohydrates are primary source of energy for both humans and livestock. The need to improve and optimize the efficiency of starch digestion is an important research focus in animal nutrition. In monogastric animals, such as swine, starch from cereals grains and theirs co-products is mainly digested in the small intestine. However, some fractions of carbohydrates known as resistant starch (RS) or fibrous non-starch polysaccharide can escape enzymatic digestion, reach the large intestine to be a source of fermentable material for microbiota. In vivo studies on digestibility and performance represent the natural methods with appropriate environment to obtain necessary data and information. However, they are time-consuming and expensive and requires a large number of animal subjects, sometimes with specific features. A good alternative for the in vivo trials are in situ and in vitro techniques used to estimate starch digestion potential of feed grains. In swine nutrition, in vitro methods, proposed in the last decade, are based on multi-enzymatic reactions mimicking the digestion processes occurring in the gastro-intestinal tract. Besides some limitations, in vitro procedures have been shown to accurately and precisely estimate the metabolic response of starch digestion in swine. Efforts have been put to study the complexities of starch digestion kinetics using several mathematical models. Cereals and their co-products included into diets are choose on the basis of their nutrient composition, usually without taking into account possible differences in palatability. Recent trials proved that feed preference in pigs is affected by cereal type, inclusion rate and diet form. Such approach is strategic, particularly during critical stages like weaning, and could help to improve feed intake. The past several years, since the discovery of taste receptors in the early 2000s, have been an stimulating time for the field of taste biology and the coming years will most likely remain still very rich in research activities. Mammals distinguish the five basic taste qualities, sweet, sour, umami, salty, and bitter, to assess the quality of consumed food. But recent findings challenge the canon of five basic sensations, strongly suggesting significant role of taste in dietary fatty acids perception. The sensory cells that 9 allow taste perception, the taste receptor cells, are distributed in the oral cavity, with the tongue being the prime taste organ. When the main role of tongue is to taste flavours of food before ingestion, a spread network of receptors are present also along the gastrointestinal system, within enteroendocrine cells population, to sense and transmit the information to regulatory systems, which adjust activities according to the luminal content. Consequently, the composition of the diet can affect the way in which gut hormones, secreted by entero-endocrine, could affect the gastrointestinal physiological mechanisms influencing nutrient uptake, animal growth and development. The present work has been divided into two parts. At first, research projects attempt to evaluate technologies that increase digestibility of energy and other nutrients in cereal grains and their co- products. Differences in starch digestibility have been attributed to various factors, including the the type of corn endosperm, the presence of proteins and prolamins, the presence of lipids, the amylose- amylopectin ratio, the starch granule structure, the particle size, the conservation and processing methods. Use of various processing techniques and exogenous enzymes could improve the nutritional value of feed. Studies were carried out to select barley verities, which could partially or totally replace corn in swine nutrition. Even if, barley contains anti-nutritional factors such as arabinoxylans and β- glucans (non-starch polysaccharides, NSP), supplementation of exogenous NSP enzymes capable of degrading polysaccharide cage structures around nutrients and reduce the viscosity of the intestinal contents improving the availability and digestibility of nutrients, and at the end the animal performance. Additionally, these trials are in the line with The European Environment Agency indications for sustainability, as Europe's water resources are seriously threatened. Barley belongs to cereals which in contrary to corn do not require long-term irrigation for efficient production. Therefore, agriculture sector could possibly achieve some benefits in terms of water usage performance. Second part of my work was dedicated to investigate the sensors of diet compounds which could be considered as potential markers to monitor nutrition status of organism. Activation of these receptors is believed to influence the hunger-satiety cycle, and their expression levels may be altered by dietary composition. Thus, the aim was to investigate for the first time the effect of arabinoxylans (AX) and 10 β-glucans (BG) on the relative level of expression of carbohydrates, amino and fatty acid nutrient sensors genes in porcine oral and non-oral tissues. Moreover a special chapter describe pattern of bitter receptors family (Tas2R) along gastrointestinal tract of pig. 11 2. Literature review 2.1. Carbohydrates Carbohydrates are the most important energy source in human nutrition, with the general formula (CH2O)n. They comprise a group of substances with different structures and varying physical, chemical, and physiological properties. The type and composition of dietary carbohydrates vary greatly among different food products. In this way they have wide range of influence on the food texture and flavor or variability and palatability of diet (Giuberti et al., 2014; Zijlstra and Jha, 2012). Population studies have shown that general carbohydrates supply in developed countries is approximately 45% of energy requirements and up to 85% in developing countries. They are considered as a fundamental source

Joseph1, Wei Liu1, Jesper Lau5, Vadim Cherezov1, Vsevolod Katritch1, Ming-Wei Wang2 & Raymond C. Stevens1 Binding of the glucagon peptide to the glucagon receptor (GCGR) triggers the release of glucose from the liver during fasting; thus GCGR plays an important role in glucose homeostasis. Here we report the crystal structure of the seven transmembrane helical domain of human GCGR at 3.4 A˚ resolution, complemented by extensive site-specific mutagenesis, and a hybrid model of glucagon bound to GCGR to understand the molecular recognition of the receptor for its native ligand. Beyond the shared seven transmembrane fold, the GCGR transmembrane domain deviates from class A G-protein-coupled receptors with a large ligand-binding pocket and the first transmembrane helix having a ‘stalk’ region that extends three alpha-helical turns above the plane of the membrane. The stalk positions the extracellular domain ( 12 kilodaltons) relative to the membrane to form the glucagon-binding site that captures the peptide and facilitates the insertion of glucagon’s amino terminus into the seven transmembrane domain. The glucagon receptor (GCGR) is one of the 15 members of the secretin- that the conformation of the 7TM domain of BRIL–GCGR(DECD/ like (class B) family of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs)1 in humans.

Koehler,1 Gemma Pujadas,1 Kiran Deep Kaur,1 and Daniel J. Drucker1 1Department of Medicine, Lunenfeld-Tanenbaum Research Institute, Mt. Sinai Hospital, University of Toronto, Ontario M5G 1XS, Canada ORCiD numbers: 0000-0001-6688-8127 (D. J. Drucker). Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), secreted from enteroendocrine cells, attenuates gut motility, enhances barrier function, and augments nutrient absorption, actions mediated by a single GLP-2 receptor (GLP-2R). Despite extensive analyses, the precise distribution and cellular localization of GLP-2R expression remains controversial, confounded by the lack of suitable GLP-2R antisera. Here, we reassessed murine Glp2r expression using regular and real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR), in situ LacZ hybridization (ISH), and a Glp2r reporter mouse. Glp2r mRNA expression was detected from the stomach to the rectum and most abundant in the jejunum. Glp2r transcripts were also detected in cerebral cortex, mesenteric lymph nodes, gallbladder, urinary bladder, and mesenteric fat. Sur- prisingly, Glp2r mRNA was found in testis by qPCR at levels similar to jejunum. However, the testis Glp2r transcripts, detected by different primer pairs and qPCR, lacked 50 mRNA coding sequences, and only a minute proportion of them corresponded to full-length Glp2r mRNA. Within the gut, Glp2r-driven LacZ expression was localized to enteric neurons and lamina propria stromal cells, findings confirmed by ISH analysis of the endogenous Glp2r mRNA.
