Scope: Highland barley tea is a kind of caffeine-free cereal tea. Previous studies have shown that it is rich in polyphenol flavonoids. Here, the effect of Highland barley tea polyphenols (HBP) on the production of advanced glycosylation end-products and alleviate the skeletal muscle damage is systematically investigated.

Methods And Results: HBP effectively inhibits the formation of AGEs in vitro, and 12 phenolic compounds are identified. In addition, d-galactose is used to construct a mouse senescence model and intervenes with different doses of HBP. It is found that high doses of HBP effectively inhibit AGEs in serum and flounder muscle species and increased muscle mass in flounder muscle; also, high doses of HBP increase the expression of the mitochondrial functional protein SIRT3 and decrease the expression of myasthenia-related proteins. Furthermore, cellular experiments show that AGEs can significantly increase oxidative stress in skeletal muscle.

Conclusion: These data indicate that the relationship between the biological activity and HBP properties is relevant since Highland barley can be a potential functional food to prevent AGEs-mediated skeletal muscle damage.

Dietary fiber in cereals is an important active substance and is believed to be beneficial to consumer health. To improve the physicochemical and functional properties of highland barley dietary fiber and the integrated utilization of highland barley, Bacillus velezensis submerged fermentation was used to treat highland barley. Soluble and insoluble dietary fibers (SDF and IDF) were isolated and their yield, proximate composition, monosaccharide compositions, physicochemical, structural and functional characteristics were investigated.

This study aims to investigate the physiological changes in growth and metabolic response mechanisms of highland barley under different concentrations of cadmium. To achieve this, cadmium stress was applied to green barley at levels of 20, 40, and 80 mg/L. The results revealed that, under Cd(II) stress, the chlorophyll content and photosynthesis in leaves of highland barley seedlings were inhibited to some extent.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of β-glucan on the pasting, gelling, rheological properties, and multi-level structures of the highland barley (HB) starch after dynamic high pressure microfluidization (DHPM) treatment, exploring the inhibition mechanisms of starch retrogradation by endogenous β-glucan after DHPM. DHPM treatment led to a decrease in the viscosity (K values from 161.1 to 54.

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an important neurotransmitter that promotes sleep and reduces anxiety, but its natural synthesis in the body is insufficient, necessitating dietary intake. This study utilized a combination of germination, the addition of active barley powder, and fermentation to enhance GABA content in an enzymatically hydrolyzed highland barley beverage. The samples were divided into five groups: highland barley (HB), germinated highland barley (GB), highland barley supplemented with another high-glutamic-acid decarboxylase-active highland barley powder TB13 (BT), germinated barley supplemented with TB13 (GBT), and germinated barley supplemented with TB13 followed by fermentation (GBTF).

The mechanisms underlying three thermal processing methods, namely hot-air drying, microwave irradiation, and heat fluidization, were systematically investigated to evaluate their effects on the structural, functional, and flour-processing properties of whole-grain highland barley. Starch granules were partially damaged when treated with hot-air drying and microwave irradiation. However, these granules were predominantly aggregated or encapsulated in proteins following heat fluidization.
