Abstract

Proteolysis-resistant gliadin peptides are intensely investigated in biomedical research relates to celiac disease and gluten-related disorders. Herein, the first integrated supramolecular investigation of pepsin-digested gliadin peptides (p-gliadin) is presented in combination with its functional behavior in the Caco-2 cell line.
