In this study, a portion of whole durum wheat semolina was replaced with Pleurotus eryngii powder (PeP) at concentrations 5% and 10% (w/w) to produce two taralli variants, TPE5 TPE10. The impact PeP on the technological, chemical, physical, sensory properties evaluated. functional characteristics enriched were assessed employing HCT8 human colon carcinoma cells as experimental model. inclusion in increased total dietary fiber, meeting “high fiber” criteria under Regulation 1924/2006 while also enhancing phenol content. higher fiber polyphenol content samples contributed significant reduction glycemic index starch hydrolysis. Treatment PeP-enriched resulted notable decrease intracellular ROS levels cells, demonstrating strong antioxidant potential. Furthermore, exerted beneficial effects by reducing inflammation—evidenced NFkB phosphorylation serine 536—and promoting apoptosis. These are likely mediated through regulation oxidative states. Overall, these findings indicate that enrichment enhances nutritional profile provides potential health benefits, reinforcing its role valuable ingredient.
