Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are a group of carcinogenic substances produced in protein-rich poultry meat under high-temperature. Enzymatic acylation of anthocyanins (ACNs) is a reliable way to improve their stability, and we recently found the acylated cyaniding-3-O-glucose (cyanidin-3-6-cinnamoyl-glucoside, C3(6C)G) could effective inhibit the HCAs formation, but the underline mechanism was still obscure. Thus, the present study investigated the inhibitory effect ofC3(6C)G on HCAs formation in the food system (chicken breast) and to explore the potential mechanism. The results showed that C3(6C)G with different concentrations (0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/mL) could significantly inhibit lipid oxidation and decrease the total HCAs content (P<0.05) in chicken breast meat patty after roasting. The samples with 0.1 mg/mL C3(6C)G had the best inhibition effect on total HCAs, with an inhibition rate of 28%, and the inhibition rates for IQ, Harman, TRP-P-2, PhIP and AαC were 34%, 46%, 100%, 54% and 41%, respectively.
