Abstract
Casein-based hydrogels (Casein Gels) possess advantageous properties, including mechanical strength, stability, biocompatibility, and even adhesion, conductivity, sensing capabilities, as well as controlled-releasing behavior of drugs. These features are attributed to their gelation methods and functionalization with various polymers. Casein Gels is an important protein-based material in the food industry, in terms of dairy and functional foods, biological and medicine, in terms of carrier for bioactive and sensitive drugs, wound healing, and flexible sensors and wearable devices. Herein, this review aims to highlight the importance of the features mentioned above via a comprehensive investigation of Casein Gels through multiple directions and dimensional applications. Firstly, the composition, structure, and properties of casein, along with the gelation methods employed to create Casein Gels are elaborated, which serves as a foundation for further exploration. Then, the application progresses of Casein Gels in dairy products, functional foods, medicine, flexible sensors and wearable devices, are thoroughly discussed to provide insights into the diverse fields where Casein Gels have shown promise and utility. Lastly, the existing challenges and future research trends are highlighted from an interdisciplinary perspective. We present the latest research advances of Casein Gels and provide references for the development of multifunctional biomass-based hydrogels.

Abstract
Endogenous peptides and their parent proteins are important nutritional components with diverse biological functions. The objective of this study was to analyze and compare endogenous peptides and parent proteins found in human colostrum (HC) and human mature milk (HM) using a 4D label-free technique. In total, 5162 and 940 endogenous peptides derived from 258 parent proteins were identified in human milk by database (DB) search and de novo, respectively. Among these peptides, 2446 differentially expressed endogenous peptides with various bioactivities were identified. The Gene Ontology analysis unveiled the cellular components, biological processes, and molecular functions associated with these parent proteins. Metabolic pathway analysis suggested that neutrophil extracellular trap formation had the greatest significance with 24 parent proteins. These findings will offer a fresh perspective on the development of infant formula powder, highlighting the potential for incorporating these changes to enhance its nutritional composition and benefits.

Abstract
Background: Whey proteins and their peptide derivatives have attracted a great attention of researchers in the pharmaceutical and nutritional fields, due to their numerous bio-functionalities. Aim: In the present research study, enzymatic protein hydrolysates (CWPHs) from camel whey proteins (CWPs) were produced and investigated for their antioxidant and antimicrobial potentials. Methods: Herein, Pepsin (gastric), and Trypsin and Chymotrypsin (pancreatic) enzymes were used to produce CWPHs. The obtained hydrolysates were characterize to ascertain the level of protein degradation and studies on their antimicrobial and antioxidant potential were conducted. Results: Among all CWPHs, a complete degradation of all different protein bands was perceived with Chymotrypsin-derived CWPHs, whereas, light bands of serum albumin and α-lactalbumin were observed with Trypsin and Pepsin-derived CWPHs. After enzymatic degradation, both CWPHs antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were improved. Chymotrypsin-derived CWPHs demonstrated higher DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, anent the increase in proteolysis time. Compared to unhydrolyzed CWPs, higher metal chelating activities were displayed by Trypsin-derived CWPHs. No significant increase in the FRAP activities was noticed after CWPs hydrolysis using Trypsin and Chymotrypsin, while Pepsin-derived CWPHs showed higher reducing power. In terms of antimicrobial activity, significantly higher bacterial growth inhibition rates were exhibited by CWPHs compared to the unhydrolyzed CWP. Conclusion: Overall, CWPHs displayed enhanced antioxidative and antimicrobial properties.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess whether ultrasound treatment (sonification time: 5, 15, and 30 min; constants: ∼40 kHz, ∼2.5 W cm2) can be applied prior to hydrolysis to enhance the anti-radical and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibiting (anti-ACE) effect of the hydrolysates from fermented pork loins. Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed using pepsin, followed by pancreatin. The influence of meat matrix on the course of hydrolysis, shaped using a lactic acid bacteria (LAB)-based starter culture, was also analyzed. It was found that proteases caused a systematic increase in the content of peptides, while pancreatin limited the peptide content in the protein hydrolysate from the loins subjected to spontaneous fermentation. Moreover, for these tests, sonication time had a negligible effect on the peptides content of the hydrolysates. On the other hand, for the sample of LAB-fermented products, both sonication time and stage of hydrolysis promoted the biological activity of the hydrolysates. Samples from the LAB-fermented meat had more peptides at the stage of digestion with pepsin and pancreatin, exhibiting much faster antiradical and anti-ACE activity compared to the control sample. The obtained results suggest that the use of LAB promotes the release of antiradical peptides during the two-step enzymatic hydrolysis, the duration of which can be shortened to achieve satisfactory biofunctionalities. Additional application of sonication pretreatment allows controlling the course of the hydrolysis, as the pro-health, biological effect of some protein-derived sequences is associated with the content of peptides.

Enhancing the nutritional and bioactive benefits of faba bean flour by combining preprocessing and thermoplastic extrusion: A comprehensive study on digestion-resistant peptides. Food Res Int 2024; 183:114231. [PMID: 38760148 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114231] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
This research assessed how three preprocessing techniques [soaking (S), soaking and reconstitution (SR), and soaking and dehulling (SD)] impact the protein digestibility and bioactivity of faba bean flours when combined with thermoplastic extrusion. Samples were compared against a control (C) of extruded faba bean flour without preprocessing. Applying preprocessing techniques followed by extrusion diminished antinutrient levels while enhancing protein hydrolysis and in vitro bioactivity in higher extent compared to C. Specifically, SD combined with extrusion was the most effective, achieving an 80% rate of protein hydrolysis and uniquely promoting the release of gastric digestion-resistant proteins (50-70 kDa). It also resulted in the highest release of small peptides (<3kDa, 22.51%) and free amino acids (15.50%) during intestinal digestion. Moreover, while all preprocessing techniques increased antioxidant (ABTS radical-scavenging), antidiabetic, and anti-hypertensive activities, SD extruded flour displayed the highest levels of dipeptidyl peptidase inhibition (DPP-IVi, IC50=13.20 µg/mL), pancreatic α-amylase inhibition (IC50=8.59 mg/mL), and angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibition (ACEi, IC50=1.71 mg protein/mL). As a result, it was selected for further peptide and in silico bioactive analysis. A total of 24 bioactive peptides were identified in intestinal digests from SD extruded flour, all with potential DPP-IVi and ACEi activities, and six were also predicted as antioxidant peptides. VIPAGYPVAIK and GLTETWNPNHPEL were highlighted as resistant bioactive peptides with the highest antidiabetic and antioxidant potential. Our findings demonstrated that combining preprocessing (particularly SD) and thermoplastic extrusion enhances protein digestibility in faba beans and promotes the release of beneficial bioactive peptides in the intestine.

Abstract
Cognitive dysfunction can occur both in normal aging and age-related neurological disorders, such as mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease (AD). These disorders have few treatment options due to side effects and limited efficacy. New approaches to slow cognitive decline are urgently needed. Dietary interventions (nutraceuticals) have received considerable attention because they exhibit strong neuroprotective properties and may help prevent or minimize AD symptoms. Biological aging is driven by a series of interrelated mechanisms, including oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, neuronal apoptosis, and autophagy, which function through various signaling pathways. Recent clinical and preclinical studies have shown that dietary small molecules derived from natural sources, including flavonoids, carotenoids, and polyphenolic acids, can modulate oxidative damage, cognitive impairments, mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation, neuronal apoptosis, autophagy dysregulation, and gut microbiota dysbiosis. This paper reviews research on different dietary small molecules and their bioactive constituents in the treatment of AD. Additionally, the chemical structure, effective dose, and specific molecular mechanisms of action are comprehensively explored. This paper also discusses the advantages of using nanotechnology-based drug delivery, which significantly enhances oral bioavailability, safety, and therapeutic effect, and lowers the risk of adverse effects. These agents have considerable potential as novel and safe therapeutic agents that can prevent and combat age-related AD.

Abstract
Because of their high protein content, easy access and low cost, pumpkin seeds are a valuable raw material for the preparation of antioxidant protein hydrolysates. Micro-coating is an effective method to protect bioactive compounds against destruction. In order to strengthen the alginate hydrogel network loaded with pumpkin seed protein hydrolysate (PSPH), CMC was added as part of its formulation in the first step, and chitosan coating was used in the second step. Then, swelling amount, release in the simulated gastrointestinal environment (SGI), antioxidant activity after SGI, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), zeta potential, dynamic light scattering (DLS), polydispersity index (PDI) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the samples were evaluated. The results showed that, the swelling amount of the chitosan-alginate hydrogel was lower than the chitosan-alginate-CMC sample, and with the increase in chitosan concentration, the swelling amount decreased. The release amount in the chitosan-alginate sample was higher than that in the chitosan-alginate-CMC sample, and with the increase in chitosan concentration, the release rate decreased. Also, the amount of release increased with the passage of time. The highest antioxidant activity belonged to the chitosan-alginate sample in SGI, and it increased with increasing the chitosan concentration. All findings demonstrated that the use of multi-component hybrid systems is a useful method for the protection of bioactive compounds against destruction, their antioxidant activities and their release behavior.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides (BPs) are molecules of paramount importance with great potential for the development of functional foods, nutraceuticals or therapeutics for the prevention or treatment of various diseases. A functional BP-rich dairy product was produced by lyophilisation of bovine milk fermented by the autochthonous strains Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis ZGBP5-51, Enterococcus faecium ZGBP5-52 and Enterococcus faecalis ZGBP5-53 isolated from the same artisanal fresh cheese. The efficiency of the proteolytic system of the implemented strains in the production of BPs was confirmed by a combined high-throughput mass spectrometry (MS)-based peptidome profiling and an in silico approach. First, peptides released by microbial fermentation were identified via a non-targeted peptide analysis (NTA) comprising reversed-phase nano-liquid chromatography (RP nano-LC) coupled with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation-time-of-flight/time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF/TOF) MS, and then quantified by targeted peptide analysis (TA) involving RP ultrahigh-performance LC (RP-UHPLC) coupled with triple-quadrupole MS (QQQ-MS). A combined database and literature search revealed that 10 of the 25 peptides identified in this work have bioactive properties described in the literature. Finally, by combining the output of MS-based peptidome profiling with in silico bioactivity prediction tools, three peptides (75QFLPYPYYAKPA86, 40VAPFPEVFGK49, 117ARHPHPHLSF126), whose bioactive properties have not been previously reported in the literature, were identified as potential BP candidates.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a type of microorganism widely used in functional foods, has gained notable research attention in recent years. Certain strains possess the proteolytic ability to release potentially antihypertensive peptides from dairy proteins, which prompted us to explore the LAB strains from an understudied and unique ingredient, Daqu. We screened for 67 strains of LAB strains from traditional Daqu using the calcium dissolution ring method. Sixteen strains exhibiting angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition (ACE-I) activity exceeding 50% were chosen for 16S rDNA sequencing and safety assessment. It is noteworthy that Enterococcus faecium CP640 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CP658 exhibited significant ACE-I activity, which was the result of strain fermentation in reconstituted skim milk. These 2 strains did not exhibit hemolytic activity or antibiotic resistance. They also did not produce biogenic amines and showed high survival rates in the gastrointestinal tract. Additionally, Enterococcus faecium CP640 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CP658 fermented milk exhibited a notable reduction in blood pressure levels in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) compared with negative controls in SHR. Importantly, no adverse effect was observed in normal Wistar-Kyoto rats. Through the analysis of physiological, serum, and urine-related indicators, it was observed that Enterococcus faecium CP640 and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus CP658 have the potential to promote weight gain in SHR, alleviate excessive heart rate, improve renal function indicators, and effectively regulate blood sugar and uric acid levels in SHR. These 2 strains showed optimal properties in lowering blood pressure and have the potential to be used in functional dairy products in the future.

Protein Hydrolysates and Bioactive Peptides as Mediators of Blood Glucose-A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Acute and Long-Term Studies. Nutrients 2024; 16:323. [PMID: 38276562 PMCID: PMC10818427 DOI: 10.3390/nu16020323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major public health concern associated with high mortality and reduced life expectancy. Since diabetes is closely linked with lifestyle, not surprisingly, nutritional intervention and increased physical activity could play a vital role in attenuating the problems related to diabetes. Protein hydrolysates (PHs) and their bioactive peptides (BP) have been shown to exert a wide range of biological effects, including antioxidative, antihypertensive, and in particular, hypoglycaemic activities. To better understand the efficacy of such interventions, a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were performed concerning the influence of protein hydrolysates on glycaemic biomarkers in subjects with and without hyperglycaemia. Five different databases were used to search for RCTs. In total, 37 RCTs were included in the systematic review and 29 RCTs in the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis revealed a significant reduction in postprandial blood glucose response (PPGR) in normoglycaemic (-0.22 mmol/L; 95% CI -0.43, -0.01; p ≤ 0.05) and in hyperglycaemic adults (-0.88 mmol/L; 95% CI -1.37, -0.39; p ≤ 0.001) compared with the respective control groups. A meta-regression analysis revealed a dose-dependent response for PPGR following PH consumption in normoglycaemic adults, specifically for doses ≤ 30 g. The postprandial blood insulin responses (PPIR) were significantly higher after the ingestion of PHs in both the group with and the group without hyperglycaemia, respectively (23.05 mIU/L; 95% CI 7.53, 38.57; p ≤ 0.01 and 12.57 mIU/L; 95% CI 2.72, 22.41; p ≤ 0.01), compared with controls. In terms of long-term responses, there was a small but significant reduction in both fasting blood glucose (FBG) and fasting glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) in response to PH compared with the control group (p < 0.05). The PHs significantly improved the parameters of glycaemia in adults and, hence, it may contribute to the management and regulation of the future risk of developing T2DM.

Dimethyl carbonate as a green alternative to acetonitrile in reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Part II: Purification of a therapeutic peptide. J Chromatogr A 2024; 1713:464530.

Abstract
Preparative liquid chromatography in reversed phase conditions (RPLC) is the most common approach adopted in the downstream processing for the purification of therapeutic peptides at industrial level. Due to the strict requirements on the quality imposed by the Regulatory Agencies, routinary methods based on the use of aqueous buffers and acetonitrile (ACN) as organic modifier are commonly used, where ACN is practically the only available choice for the purification of peptide derivatives. However, ACN is known to suffers of many shortcomings, such as drastic shortage in the market, high costs and, most importantly, it shows unwanted toxicity for human health and environment, which led it among the less environmentally friendly ones. For this reason, the selection of a suitable alternative becomes crucial for the sustainable downstream processing of peptides and biopharmaceuticals in general. In this paper, a promising green solvent, namely dimethyl carbonate (DMC) has been used for the separation of a peptide not only in linear conditions but also for its purification through non-linear overloaded chromatography. The performance of the process has been compared to that achievable with the common method where ACN is used as organic modifier and to that obtained with two additional solvents (namely ethanol and isopropanol), already used as greener alternatives to ACN. This proof-of-concept study showed that, thanks to its higher elution strength, DMC can be considered a green alternative to ACN, since it allows to reduce method duration while reaching good purities and recoveries. Indeed, at a target purity fixed to 98.5 %, DMC led to the best productivity with respect to all the other solvents tested, confirming its suitability as a sustainable alternative to ACN for the purification of complex biopharmaceutical products.

Lentils protein isolate as a fermenting substrate for the production of bioactive peptides by lactic acid bacteria and neglected yeast species. Microb Biotechnol 2024; 17:e14387.

Abstract
In the current trend where plant-based foods are preferred over animal-based foods, pulses represent an alternative source of protein but also of bioactive peptides (BPs). We investigated the pattern of protein hydrolysis during fermentation of red lentils protein isolate (RLPI) with various lactic acid bacteria and yeast strains. Hanseniaspora uvarum SY1 and Fructilactobacillus sanfranciscensis E10 were the most proteolytic microorganisms. H. uvarum SY1 led to the highest antiradical, angiotensin-converting enzyme-inhibitory and antifungal activities, as found in low molecular weight water soluble extracts (LMW-WSE). The 2039 peptide sequences identified by LMW-WSE were screened using BIOPEP UWM database, and 36 sequences matched with known BPs. Fermentation of RLPI by lactic acid bacteria and yeasts generated 12 peptides undetected in raw RLPI. Besides, H. uvarum SY1 led to the highest abundance (peak areas) of BPs, in particular with antioxidant and ACE-inhibitory activities. The amino acid sequences LVR and LVL, identified in the fermented RLPI, represent novel findings, as they were detected for the first time in substrates subjected to microbial fermentation. KVI, another BP highly characteristic of RLPI-SY1, was previously observed only in dried bonito. 44 novel potential BPs, worthy of further characterization, were correlated with antifungal activity.

Abstract
Increasing attention to peptides as prospective therapeutics has created a renaissance in searching for new alternatives to the current peptide synthetic approaches as well as their modification. In this context, it is necessary to develop different approaches for peptide ligation. Using enzymes as a novel strategy and powerful tool for the peptide and protein ligation has recently received a lot of attention. We here designed a fully convergent chemo-enzymatic peptide synthesis (CEPS) process for the synthesis of aviptadil a 28-mer therapeutic peptide with potential therapeutic effects in various medical contexts specially in the treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) by coupling two peptide segments with four different peptiligase variants in aqueous environments. Our study reveals that peptiligase variants are capable of ligation reaction in 15 min. The overall time of ligation is shorter than those peptides with similar lengths and hinderance to aviptadil which reported for conventional synthesis by full solid-phase peptide synthesis. Yields ranged from 54 % to 76 %.

Abstract
β-Lactoglobulin is one of the proteins in milk possessing antioxidant activity. The peptides derived from β-Lactoglobulin exhibit higher antioxidant activities than the most commonly used antioxidant. Furthermore, the detailed structure-activity relationship of these antioxidant peptides has not been elucidated. Therefore, in the present work, two-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (2D-QSAR) and three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) models were constructed to investigate the structural factors affecting activities and gave information for the rational design of novel antioxidant peptides. After calculation and screening of molecular descriptors, linear and nonlinear models were developed by multiple linear regression (MLR), partial least squares regression (PLSR) and support vector machines (SVM) approaches. The statistical parameters are as follows: R2 = 0.643, Q2 = 0.553/MLR, R2 = 0.612, Q2 = 0.5278/PLSR, R2 = 0.7085, Q2 = 0.6887/SVM, indicating that the SVM model is superior to the MLR and PLSR models. In addition, in the 3D-QSAR models, the Dragon-CoMFA (R2cv = 0.537, R2pred = 0.5201) and Dragon-CoMSIA (R2cv = 0.665, R2pred = 0.6489) methods were conducted to predict the antioxidant activities. Comparison of statistical parameters illustrates that the suitability of Dragon-CoMSIA is superior to the Dragon-CoMFA model. The results show the robustness and excellent prediction of the proposed models, and would be applied for modifying and designing novel and potent antioxidant peptides.

Abstract
Incorporation of probiotic Lacticaseibacillus paracasei into a standard yogurt starter culture can drastically improve its health promoting properties. However, besides being an advantage in itself, the incorporation of a new probiotic strain can significantly affect the overall composition of fermented milk. In this article, the effect of incorporation of the L. paracasei probiotic strains (KF1 and MA3) into several standard yogurt starter cultures (consisting of the following strains: Streptococcus thermophilus 16t and either Lactobacillus delbrueckii Lb100 or L. delbrueckii Lb200) was investigated. Such parameters as the degree of proteolysis, antioxidant activity, ACE-inhibitory activity, content of organic acids, profile of FAs and profile of volatile organic compounds were measured, and the influence of the starter culture composition on these parameters was described. It was demonstrated that, at least in the case of the studied strains, yogurt with L. paracasei had an advantage over the standard yogurt in terms of the content of acetoin, acetic acid, butyric acid and conjugated linoleic acid. Moreover, the incorporation of L. paracasei KF1 significantly improved the hypotensive properties of the resulting yogurt. Thus, the presented study provides insight into the bioactive molecules of probiotic yogurt and may be useful for both academia and industry in the development of new dairy-based functional products.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria are traditionally applied in a variety of fermented food products, and they have the ability to produce a wide range of bioactive ingredients during fermentation, including vitamins, bacteriocins, bioactive peptides, and bioactive compounds. The bioactivity and health benefits associated with these ingredients have garnered interest in applications in the functional dairy market and have relevance both as components produced in situ and as functional additives. This review provides a brief description of the regulations regarding the functional food market in the European Union, as well as an overview of some of the functional dairy products currently available in the Irish and European markets. A better understanding of the production of these ingredients excreted by lactic acid bacteria can further drive the development and innovation of the continuously growing functional food market.

Abstract
The investigation was to determine the effect of camel milk fermented with Limosilactobacillus fermentum KGL4 (MTCC 25515) on ACE-inhibiting, anti-inflammatory, and diabetes-preventing properties and also to release the novel peptides with antidiabetic and anti-hypertensive attributes with molecular interaction studies. Growth conditions were optimised on the basis of total peptide production by inoculating the culture in camel milk at different rates (1.5, 2.0, and 2.5%) along with different incubation periods (12, 24, 36, and 48 h). However, after 48 h of fermentation with a 2.5% rate of inoculum, the highest proteolytic activity was obtained. Reverse phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was used to calculate the % Rpa from permeates of 3 kDa and 10 kDa fractions. Molecular weight distributions of fermented and unfermented camel milk protein fractions were compared using SDS-PAGE. Spots obtained from 2D gel electrophoresis were separated on the basis of pH and molecular weight. Spots obtained from 2D gel were digested with trypsin, and the digested samples were subjected to RP-LC/MS for the generation of peptide sequences. The inhibition of tumour necrosis factor alpha, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1 during fermentation was studied using RAW 264.7 macrophages. In the study, fermented camel milk with KGL4 (CMKGL4) inhibited LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production and pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β) by the murine macrophages. The results showed that the peptide structures (YLEELHRLNK and YLQELYPHSSLKVRPILK) exhibited considerable binding affinity against hPAM and hMGA during molecular interaction studies.

Meat Sci 2023; 204:109278. [PMID: 37442015 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2023.109278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
Meat and its by-products offer a rich source of bioactive compounds which have potential applications in both the food and pharmaceutical industries. In this review, we present several extraction methods and report the identification and properties of bioactive peptides. We also examine the challenges and limitations associated with their use in food applications. Enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation using starts cultures are common methods for generating bioactive peptides from meat proteins. Additionally, natural gastrointestinal digestion can also produce bioactive peptides. However, emerging technologies like high hydrostatic pressure, subcritical extraction and pulsed electric fields can improve hydrolysis and increase the yield of bioactive peptides. Online bioinformatics applications have emerged as an established method for identifying potentially bioactive peptides. These tools reduce the cost and time required for traditional methods of research. Finally, incorporating bioactive peptides into diets for specific purposes such as supporting vulnerable populations like children and the elderly ensures safety and efficacy.

[PMID: 37928486 PMCID: PMC10625370 DOI: 10.6026/97320630019908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 09/30/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023] Open
Abstract
It is of interest to assess the effectiveness of bioactive peptides derived from 41 ethno-medicinal plants, classify them according to their anti-diabetic protein targets (DPP-IV, alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, GRK2, GSK3B, GLP-1R, and AdipoR1), and create a web tool named PhytoSelectDBT by using the top seven peptides per target. If one of the target-based medicinal plant suggestions made by PhytoSelectDBT is unsuccessful, alternative target-based possibilities are presented by PhytoSelectDBT for treating the condition and any other related complications. The results provide a useful resource for the management of type 2 diabetes and emphasize the significance of utilising ethnomedical knowledge for the identification of potent anti-diabetic plants and their peptides. We used molecular docking to investigate interactions between anti-diabetic targets (DPP-IV, alpha-amylase, alpha-glucosidase, GRK2, GSK3B, GLP-1R, and AdipoR1) and projected bioactive peptides from 41 ethnomedicinal plants. All bioactive peptides were cross-checked against several databases to determine their allergenicity, toxicity, and cross-reactivity. The presence of B and T cell epitopes was also examined in all simulated digested bioactive peptides for reference. This data is archived at the PhytoselectDBT database.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate germinated chickpea protein hydrolysate (GCPH) in vitro for its effect on markers of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and bitter taste receptor expression in intestinal epithelial cells. Protein hydrolysate was obtained using ficin, and the resulting peptides were sequenced using LC-ESI-MS/MS. Caco-2 cells were used to determine glucose uptake and extra-oral bitter receptor activation. Three peptides, VVFW, GEAGR, and FDLPAL, were identified in legumin. FDLPAL was the most potent peptide in molecular docking studies with a DPP-IV energy of affinity of -9.8 kcal mol-1. GCPH significantly inhibited DPP-IV production by Caco-2 cells (IC50 = 2.1 mM). Glucose uptake was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner (IC25 = 2.0 mM). A negative correlation was found between glucose uptake and PLCβ2 expression in Caco-2 cells (R value, -0.62). Thus, GCPH has the potential to be commercialized as a functional ingredient.

Abstract
Traditional natural products in China have a long history and a vast pharmacological repertoire that has garnered significant attention due to their safety and efficacy in disease prevention and treatment. Among the bioactive components of traditional natural products in China, bioactive peptides (BPs) are specific protein fragments that have beneficial effects on human health. Despite many of the traditional natural products in China ingredients being rich in protein, BPs have not received sufficient attention as a critical factor influencing overall therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary of the current methodologies for the preparation, isolation, and identification of BPs from traditional natural products in China and to classify the functions of discovered BPs. Insights from this review are expected to facilitate the development of targeted drugs and functional foods derived from traditional natural products in China in the future.

Abstract
Hypertension is among the risk factors of death globally. Novel antihypertensive peptides are alternative choices of antihypertensive assistance. This study aimed to discover novel antihypertensive peptides from green basil leaves. Two bioactive peptides with high angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition (Asp-Leu-Ser-Ser-Ala-Pro; peptide 1) and antioxidant (Asp-Ser-Val-Ser-Ala-Ser-Pro; peptide 2) activities were gavaged to male Wistar rats induced with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl-ester (L-NAME). L-NAME-treated rats (HT) had decreased body weights and levels of nitrite and nitrate, which are metabolites of nitric oxide. The levels of their glucose and liver function indicators increased as compared to normal rats. HT rats receiving antihypertensive drugs (HTD) showed higher low-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein/high-density lipoprotein levels than HT rats. Peptide 1 seems to benefit the rat lipid profiles, liver functions, antioxidant, nitrite, nitrate, and angiotensin II peptide levels but not peptide 2. In conclusion, our findings indicate the antihypertensive potential related to vasodilation of peptides from green basil leaves.

Abstract
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the most important public health problems, and new antidiabetic drugs with fewer side effects are urgently needed. Here, we measured the antidiabetic effects of an antioxidant peptide (Ala-Phe-Tyr-Arg-Trp, AFYRW) from Tartary Buckwheat Albumin (TBA) in a high-fat diet/streptozotocin (HFD/STZ)-induced diabetic mouse model. The data showed that AFYRW suppressed hepatocyte steatosis and triglycerides while ameliorating insulin resistance in mice. Successively, the influence of AFYRW on aberrant protein glycosylation in diabetic mice was further investigated by lectin microarrays. The results suggested AFYRW could restore the expression of GalNAc, GalNAcα1-3Gal and GalNAcα1-3Galβ1-3/4Glc recognized by PTL-I, Siaα2-3Galβ1-4Glc(NAc)/Glc, Siaα2-3Gal, Siaα2-3 and Siaα2-3GalNAc recognized by MAL-II, terminating in GalNAcα/β1-3/6Gal recognized by WFA and αGalNAc, αGal, anti-A and B recognized by GSI-I to normal levels in the pancreas of HFD-STZ-induced diabetic mice. This work may provide new targets for the future discovery of potential biomarkers to evaluate the efficacy of food-derived antidiabetic drugs based on precise alterations of glycopatterns in DM.

Abstract
Seafoods are rich in untapped bioactive compounds that have the potential to provide novel ingredients for the development of commercial functional foods and pharmaceuticals. Unfortunately, a large portion of waste or discards is generated in commercial processing setups (50-80%), which is wasted or underutilized. These by-products are a rich source of novel and valuable biomolecules, including bioactive peptides, collagen and gelatin, oligosaccharides, fatty acids, enzymes, calcium, water-soluble minerals, vitamins, carotenoids, chitin, chitosan and biopolymers. These fish components may be used in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, environmental, biomedical and other industries. Furthermore, they provide a viable source for the production of biofuels. As a result, the current review emphasizes the importance of effective by-product and discard reduction techniques that can provide practical and profitable solutions. Recognizing this, many initiatives have been initiated to effectively use them and generate income for the long-term sustainability of the environment and economic framework of the processing industry. This comprehensive review summarizes the current state of the art in the sustainable valorisation of seafood by-products for human consumption. The review can generate a better understanding of the techniques for seafood waste valorisation to accelerate the sector while providing significant benefits.

Abstract
Natural products exhibit substantial impacts in the field of anti-hypoxic traetment. Hypoxia can cause altitude sickness and other negative effect on the body. Headache, coma, exhaustion, vomiting and, in severe cases, death are some of the clinical signs. Currently, hypoxia is no longer just a concern in plateau regions; it is also one of the issues that can not be ignored by urban residents. This review covered polysaccharides, alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, peptides and traditional Chinese compound prescriptions as natural products to protect against hypoxia. The active ingredients, effectiveness and mechanisms were discussed. The related anti-hypoxic mechanisms involve increasing the hemoglobin (HB) content, glycogen content and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content, removing excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), reducing lipid peroxidation, regulating the levels of related enzymes in cells, protecting the structural and functional integrity of the mitochondria and regulating the expression of apoptosis-related genes. These comprehensive summaries are beneficial to anti-hypoxic research and provide useful information for the development of anti-hypoxic products.

Abstract
The development of food-derived Xanthine Oxidase (XO) inhibitors is critical to the treatment of hyperuricemia and oxidative stress-related disease. Few studies report on milk protein hydrolysates' XO inhibitory activity, with the mechanism of their interaction remaining elusive. Here, different commercial enzymes were used to hydrolyze α-lactalbumin and bovine colostrum casein. The two proteins hydrolyzed by alkaline protease exhibited the most potent XO inhibitory activity (bovine casein: IC50 = 0.13 mg mL-1; α-lactalbumin: IC50 = 0.28 mg mL-1). Eight potential XO inhibitory peptides including VYPFPGPI, GPVRGPFPIIV, VYPFPGPIPN, VYPFPGPIHN, QLKRFSFRSFIWR, LVYPFPGPIHN, AVFPSIVGR, and GFININSLR (IC50 of 4.67-8.02 mM) were purified and identified from alkaline protease hydrolysates by using gel filtration, LC-MS/MS and PeptideRanker. The most important role of inhibiting activity of peptides is linked to hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonding based on the results of molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation. The enzymatic hydrolysate of α-lactalbumin and bovine colostrum casein could be a competitive candidates for hyperuricemia-resisting functional food.

Abstract
The solubilization capacity of a series of sustainable phenylalanine-derived surface-active ionic liquids (SAILs) was evaluated towards polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons-naphthalene, anthracene and pyrene. The key physico-chemical parameters of the studied systems (critical micelle concentration, spectral properties, solubilization parameters) were determined, analyzed and compared with conventional cationic surfactant, CTABr. For all studied PAH solubilization capacity increases with extension of alkyl chain length of PyPheOCn SAILs reaching the values comparable to CTABr for SAILs with n = 10-12. A remarkable advantage of the phenylalanine-derived SAILs PyPheOCn and PyPheNHCn is a possibility to cleave enzymatically ester and/or amide bonds under mild conditions, to separate polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in situ. A series of immobilized enzymes was tested to determine the most suitable candidates for tunable decomposition of SAILs. The decomposition pathway could be adjusted depending on the choice of the enzyme system, reaction conditions, and selection of SAILs type. The evaluated systems can provide selective cleavage of the ester and amide bond and help to choose the optimal decomposition method of SAILs for enzymatic recycling of SAILs transformation products or as a pretreatment towards biological mineralization. The concept of a possible practical application of studied systems for PAHs solubilization/separation was also discussed focusing on sustainability and a green chemistry approach.

Abstract
Consumers' growing interest in fermented dairy foods necessitates research on a wide array of lactic acid bacterial strains to be explored and used. This study aimed to investigate the differences in the proteolytic capacity of Lactobacillus helveticus strains B1929 and ATCC 15009 on the fermentation of commercial ultra-pasteurized (UHT) skim milk and reconstituted nonfat dried milk powder (at a comparable protein concentration, 4%). The antihypertensive properties of the fermented milk, measured by angiotensin-I-converting enzyme inhibitory (ACE-I) activity, were compared. The B1929 strain lowered the pH of the milk to 4.13 ± 0.09 at 37°C after 24 h, whereas ATCC 15009 needed 48 h to drop the pH to 4.70 ± 0.18 at 37°C. Two soluble protein fractions, one (CFS1) obtained after fermentation (acidic conditions) and the other (CFS2) after the neutralization (pH 6.70) of the pellet from CFS1 separation, were analyzed for d-/l-lactic acid production, protein concentration, the degree of protein hydrolysis, and ACE-I activity. The CFS1 fractions, dominated by whey proteins, demonstrated a greater degree of protein hydrolysis (7.9%) than CFS2. On the other hand, CFS2, mainly casein proteins, showed a higher level of ACE-I activity (33.8%) than CFS1. Significant differences were also found in the d- and l-lactic acid produced by the UHT milk between the 2 strains. These results attest that milk casein proteins possessed more detectable ACE-I activity than whey fractions, even without a measurable degree of hydrolysis. Findings from this study suggest that careful consideration must be given when selecting the bacterial strain and milk substrate for fermentation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the whey protein hydrolysate with bio-functional attributes viz. antioxidative, anti-inflammatory and ACE inhibition efficacy and release of bioactive peptides with antioxidative and ACE-inhibitory activity by employing Pepsin. METHOD The antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory, ACE inhibitory and proteolytic activities of the whey protein hydrolysates were studied followed by SDS-PAGE analysis and IEF. Anti-inflammatory activity of whey protein hydrolysate was also studied on RAW 264.7 cell line. The separation of the bioactive peptides from whey protein hydrolysate was achieved by RP-HPLC. The purified bioactive peptides were identified and characterized using RPLC/MS. RESULTS WPC (Whey protein concentrate) hydrolysate with pepsin showed proteolytic activity ranging between 14.46 and 18.87 mg/ml. Using the ABTS assay, the highest antioxidative activity was observed in 10 kDa retentate (84.50%) and 3 kDa retentate (85.96%), followed by the highest proteolytic activity (13.83 mg/ml) and ACE inhibitory activity (58.37%) in a 5% WPC solution at 65 °C after 8 h of pepsin hydrolysis. When the protein hydrolysate concentration was low, the production of proinflammatory cytokines by lipopolysaccharide-treated murine macrophages (RAW 264.7) was reduced. SDS-PAGE results exhibited very little protein bands when comparing with WPC hydrolysates to insoluble WPC. There were no protein spots on 2 D gel electrophoresis and "in-solution trypsin digestion" technique have been utilized to digest protein samples directly from WPC hydrolysates. Novel antioxidative peptides and ACE inhibitory peptides were also observed by comparing two databases, i.e., BIOPEP and AHTPDB respectively. The peptide sequences used in this study were found to have excellent potential to be used as inhibitors of hACE as all of them were able to show substantial interactions against the enzyme's active site. CONCLUSIONS The antihypertensive and antioxidative peptides from whey protein hydrolysates may be beneficial for the future development of physiologically active functional foods. Further, in vivo investigations are required to establish the health claim for each individual bioactive peptide from whey protein hydrolysate. Supplemental data for this article is available online at.

Abstract
Cheese is an important source of protein in the human diet, and its digestibility depends on its macro and microstructure. This study investigated the effect of milk heat pre-treatment and pasteurization level on the protein digestibility of produced cheese. An in vitro digestion method was used considering cheeses after 4 and 21 days of storage. The peptide profile and amino acids (AAs) released in digestion were analyzed to evaluate the level of protein degradation following in vitro digestion. The results showed the presence of shorter peptides in the digested cheese from pre-treated milk and 4-day ripening while this trend was not observed after 21 days of storage, showing the effect of storage period. A significantly higher content of AAs was found in digested cheese produced from milk subjected to a higher temperature of pasteurization, and there was a significant increase in total AA content in the cheese after 21 days of storage, confirming the positive effect of ripening on protein digestibility. From these results emerges the importance of the management of heat treatments on the digestion of proteins in soft cheese.

Abstract
The common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) is nowadays the most demanded cephalopod species for human consumption. This species was also postulated for aquaculture diversification to supply its increasing demand in the market worldwide, which only relies on continuously declining field captures. In addition, they serve as model species for biomedical and behavioral studies. Body parts of marine species are usually removed before reaching the final consumer as by-products in order to improve preservation, reduce shipping weight, and increase product quality. These by-products have recently attracted increasing attention due to the discovery of several relevant bioactive compounds. Particularly, the common octopus ink has been described as having antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, among others. In this study, the advanced proteomics discipline was applied to generate a common octopus reference proteome to screen potential bioactive peptides from fishing discards and by-products such as ink. A shotgun proteomics approach by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) using an Orbitrap Elite instrument was used to create a reference dataset from octopus ink. A total of 1432 different peptides belonging to 361 non-redundant annotated proteins were identified. The final proteome compilation was investigated by integrated in silico studies, including gene ontology (GO) term enrichment, pathways, and network studies. Different immune functioning proteins involved in the innate immune system, such as ferritin, catalase, proteasome, Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase, calreticulin, disulfide isomerase, heat shock protein, etc., were found in ink protein networks. Additionally, the potential of bioactive peptides from octopus ink was addressed. These bioactive peptides can exert beneficial health properties such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, antihypertensive, and antitumoral properties and are therefore considered lead compounds for developing pharmacological, functional foods or nutraceuticals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies have investigated the relation between dairy products and mortality, but with inconsistent results. OBJECTIVE We examined the association between the consumption of dairy products and the risk of all-cause, cancer-related, and cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related mortality. METHODS From the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective (JPHC) study, 43,117 males and 50,193 females with no history of cancer or CVD finished the food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and were included in the study. Intake of dairy products was assessed using the FFQ and adjusted for total energy by using the residual method. We used multivariate Cox proportional hazard models to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for mortality risk in males and females. RESULTS 14,211 deaths in males and 9547 deaths in females from all causes were identified during an average follow-up of 19.3 years. For males, total dairy consumption was nonlinearly and significantly associated with lower risk of mortality from all causes [the third quartile, HR = 0.87 (0.83, 0.91), the fourth quartile, HR = 0.89 (0.85, 0.94), P for nonlinearity < 0.001] and CVD [the third quartile, HR = 0.77 (0.70, 0.85), the fourth quartile, HR = 0.78 (0.70, 0.86), P for nonlinearity < 0.001]. Milk and fermented milk intake were inversely associated with all-cause and CVD-related mortality in males. Cheese consumption was inversely associated with CVD-related mortality among males. There was no association between total dairy intake and mortality risk among females. CONCLUSION For Japanese people, consumption of dairy products was associated with a decreased risk of mortality from all-cause and cardiovascular diseases among males.

Abstract
Autophagy flux plays a significant protective role in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the mechanisms by which autophagy mediates insulin resistance (IR) to ameliorate T2DM remain unclear. This study explored the hypoglycemic effects and mechanisms of walnut-derived peptides (fraction 3-10 kDa and LP5) in streptozotocin and high-fat-diet-induced T2DM mice. Findings revealed that walnut-derived peptides reduced the levels of blood glucose and FINS and ameliorated IR and dyslipidemia. They also increased SOD and GSH-PX activities and inhibited the secretion of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β. Additionally, they increased the levels of ATP, COX, SDH, and MMP of liver mitochondria. Western blotting indicated that walnut-derived peptides up-regulated LC3-II/LC3-I and Beclin-1 expression, while they down-regulated p62 expression, which may be associated with the activation of the AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 pathway. Finally, the AMPK activator (AICAR) and inhibitor (Compound C) were used to verify that LP5 could activate autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 pathway in IR HepG2 cells.

Abstract
Isinglass, a dried product of the swim bladder, has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. This study attempts to identify natural antioxidant peptides after digestion and absorption of isinglass in vivo. The antioxidant effects of dietary isinglass were demonstrated by evaluating the activities of SOD, CAT and MDA contents in the mouse liver. Four novel antioxidant-related peptides (RLLWENGNLL, GSKAENPTNPGP, SPVPDLVPGSF and VPDLVPGSF) were screened based on serum peptidomics and amino acid composition. Furthermore, pretreating with four peptides significantly increased the cell viability, and SOD and CAT activities of AML12 cells with H2O2-mediated oxidative damage, meanwhile, significantly reduced the ROS level, MDA content and apoptosis rate and attenuated DNA damage. Therefore, it was concluded that pretreatment of the identified peptides had a protective effect on oxidatively damaged cells. This result can aid in the recognition of active peptides from isinglass consumption for potential application in nutraceuticals or functional ingredients in food.

Abstract
Since the first years of history, microbial fermentation products such as bread, wine, yogurt and vinegar have always been noteworthy regarding their nutritional and health effects. Similarly, mushrooms have been a valuable food product in point of both nutrition and medicine due to their rich chemical components. Alternatively, filamentous fungi, which can be easier to produce, play an active role in the synthesis of some bioactive compounds, which are also important for health, as well as being rich in protein content. Therefore, this review presents some important bioactive compounds (bioactive peptides, chitin/chitosan, β-glucan, gamma-aminobutyric acid, L-carnitine, ergosterol and fructooligosaccharides) synthesized by fungal strains and their health benefits. In addition, potential probiotic- and prebiotic fungi were researched to determine their effects on gut microbiota. The current uses of fungal based bioactive compounds for cancer treatment were also discussed. The use of fungal strains in the food industry, especially to develop innovative food production, has been seen as promising microorganisms in obtaining healthy and nutritious food.

Abstract
Almost 65% of the human protein supply in the world originates from plants, with legumes being one of the highest contributors, comprising between 20 and 40% of the protein supply. Bioactive peptides from various food sources including legumes have been reported to show efficacy in modulating starch digestion and glucose absorption. This paper will provide a comprehensive review on recent in vitro studies that have been performed on leguminous antidiabetic peptides, focusing on the α-amylase inhibitor, α-glucosidase inhibitor, and dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitor. Variations in legume cultivars and methods affect the release of peptides. Different methods have been used, such as in sample preparation, including fermentation (t, T), germination (t), and pre-cooking; in protein extraction, alkaline extraction, isoelectric precipitation, phosphate buffer extraction, and water extraction; in protein hydrolysis enzyme types and combination, enzyme substrate ratio, pH, and time; and in enzyme inhibitory assays, positive control type and concentration, inhibitor or peptide concentration, and the unit of inhibitory activity. The categorization of the relative scale of inhibitory activities among legume samples becomes difficult because of these method differences. Peptide sequences in samples were identified by means of HPLC/MS. Software and online tools were used in bioactivity prediction and computational modelling. The identification of the types and locations of chemical interactions between the inhibitor peptides and enzymes and the type of enzyme inhibition were achieved through computational modelling and enzyme kinetic studies.

[PMID: 36770900 PMCID: PMC9921607 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28031233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 01/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
In the past decade, there has been fast-growing interest among researchers to discover bioactive peptides from edible insects and to evaluate their potential applications in the management of human, livestock, and plant health. This review summarizes current knowledge of insect-derived peptides and their potential role in tackling human health issues and solving agriculture problems by protecting crops and livestock against their pathogens. Numerous bioactive peptides have been identified from edible insect species, including peptides that were enzymatically liberated from insect proteins and endogenous peptides that occur naturally in insects. The peptides exhibited diverse bioactivities, encompassing antioxidant, anti-angiotensin-converting enzyme, anti-dipeptidyl peptidase-IV, anti-glucosidase, anti-lipase, anti-lipoxygenase, anti-cyclooxygenase, anti-obesity, and hepatoprotective activities. Such findings point to their potential contribution to solving human health problems related to inflammation, free radical damage, diabetes, hypertension, and liver damage, among others. Although most of the experiments were performed in vitro, evidence for the in vivo efficacy of some peptides is emerging. Evidence of the protective effects of insect-derived endogenous antimicrobial peptides in combating farm animal and plant pathogens is available. The ability of insect-derived endogenous neuropeptides to protect plants against herbivorous insects has been demonstrated as well. Nevertheless, the potency of peptides identified from insect protein hydrolysates in modulating livestock and plant health remains a knowledge gap to be filled.

Evaluation of the antimicrobial attribute of bioactive peptides derived from colostrum whey fermented by Lactobacillus against diarrheagenic E. coli strains. JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2023; 60:211-221. [PMID: 36259044 PMCID: PMC9559551 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-022-05606-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Colostrum known as "liquid gold" contains approximately 60-80% of whey proteins that can be a great source of bioactive peptide production. Therefore, this study aimed to perform a comparative antimicrobial evaluation of the bioactive peptide generated from L. rhamnosus C25, L. rhamnosus C6, and L. casei NCDC17 fermented colostrum whey. Peptide fractions 10 kDa, 5 kDa, and 3 kDa were isolated using their respective molecular weight cut-off membranes and antimicrobial activity was evaluated against diarrheagenic E. coli strains. The higher inhibition was shown by < 10 kDa peptide fractions from L. rhamnosus C25 fermented colostrum whey and the zone of inhibition was 15 ± 0.06 (E. coli MTCC 723), 17 ± 0.04 (E. coli MTCC 724), 18 ± 0.05 (E. coli MTCC 725), and 17 ± 0.02 (E. coli ATCC 25922). In addition, ST-1 and LT-1 genes of E. coli strains were also confirmed using PCR which is responsible for the diarrheagenic property. Further, the interaction of potent peptides against E. coli strains was also observed by scanning electron microscope. Hence, the significance of the present study emphasized that these bioactive peptides generated from fermented colostrum whey can be used as ingredients in functional food against diarrhoea.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010498. [PMID: 36613938 PMCID: PMC9820608 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Curcumin presents interesting biological activities but low chemical stability, so it has been incorporated into different emulsion-based systems in order to increase its bioaccessibility. Many strategies are being investigated to increase the stability of these systems. Among them, the use of polysaccharides has been seen to highly improve the emulsion stability but also to modulate their digestibility and the release of the encapsulated compounds. However, the effect of these polysaccharides on nanoemulsions depends on the presence of other components. Then, this work aimed to study the effect of alginate addition at different concentrations (0-1.5%) on the gastrointestinal fate and stability of curcumin-loaded nanoemulsions formulated using soybean lecithin or whey protein as emulsifiers. Results showed that, in the absence of polysaccharides, whey protein was more effective than lecithin in preventing curcumin degradation during digestion and its use also provided greater lipid digestibility and higher curcumin bioaccessibility. The addition of alginate, especially at ≥1%, greatly prevented curcumin degradation during digestion up to 23% and improved the stability of nanoemulsions over time. However, it reduced lipid digestibility and curcumin bioaccessibility. Our results provide relevant information on the use of alginate on different emulsifier-based nanoemulsions to act as carriers of curcumin.

MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 28:molecules28010092. [PMID: 36615286 PMCID: PMC9822140 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28010092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Abnormal skin pigmentation commonly occurs during the wound healing process due to the overproduction of melanin. Chicken egg white (CEW) has long been used to improve skin health. Previous published works had found CEW proteins house bioactive peptides that inhibit tyrosinase, the key enzyme of melanogenesis. The current study aimed to evaluate the anti-pigmentation potential and mechanism of the CEW-derived peptide (GYSLGNWVCAAK) and hydrolysates (CEWHmono and CEWHdi), using a cell-based model. All of these peptide and hydrolysates inhibited intracellular tyrosinase activity and melanin level up to 45.39 ± 1.31 and 70.01 ± 1.00%, respectively. GYSLGNWVCAAK and CEWHdi reduced intracellular cAMP levels by 13.38 ± 3.65 and 14.55 ± 2.82%, respectively; however, CEWHmono did not affect cAMP level. Moreover, the hydrolysates downregulated the mRNA expression of melanogenesis-related genes, such as Mitf, Tyr, Trp-1 and Trp-2, but GYSLGNWVCAAK only suppressed Tyr gene expression. Downregulation of the genes may lower the catalytic activities and/or affect the structural stability of TYR, TRP-1 and TRP-2; thus, impeding melanogenesis to cause an anti-pigmentation effect in the cell. Outcomes from the current study could serve as the starting point to understand the underlying complex, multifaceted melanogenesis regulatory mechanism at the cellular level.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to compare odd and branched-chain fatty acids (OBCFA) of milk from sheep, goat, cow, buffalo, donkey, human, and formula milk. Ruminant, monogastric, and human milks have different concentrations of these fatty acids (FA). To highlight the differences on OBCFA, a total of 282 individual milk samples were analyzed by gas chromatography. The OBCFA were found higher in ruminant than non-ruminant milks (p < 0.05). Among ruminants, sheep milk had the highest OBCFA (4.5 g/100 g of total FAME), whereases the lowest values were found in formula milk (0.18 g/100 g of total FAME). Regarding individual linear odd-chain FA (linear-OCFA), C11:0 was found higher in donkey milk than others, while sheep and buffalo milks had the greatest concentration of C15:0. Among BCFA, the iso-BCFA were higher than anteiso-BCFA in all considered milks. The isoC17:0 showed the highest concentration in all milks except for donkey and buffalo, which showed higher concentration of isoC16:0 than others. In conclusion, ruminant milks are different in terms of these FA compared to human milk and its substitutes. However, the greatest differences were found with formula milk, suggesting that this product needs the implementation of these FA to be more similar to human milk composition.

Isolation and Identification of Anti-Inflammatory Peptide from Goose Blood Hydrolysate to Ameliorate LPS-Mediated Inflammation and Oxidative Stress in RAW264.7 Macrophages. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27248816.

Abstract
This study was designed to isolate an anti-inflammatory activity oligopeptide from goose blood (GBP) for ameliorating LPS-mediated inflammation response and oxidative stress in RAW264.7 macrophages. In this study, GBP was isolated by tangential flow ultrafiltration system (TFUS) combined with size exclusion chromatography (SEC), ion exchange chromatography (IEC), and reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-LC), and then identified by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The experiment results indicated that the amino acid sequence of oligopeptide with the best anti-inflammatory activity was IIe-Val-Tyr-Pro-Trp-Thr-Gln-Arg (IVYPWTQR), which had a molecular weight of 1062.5720 Da, and was derived from haemoglobin subunit beta OS in goose blood. In addition, IVYPWTQR was confirmed to have satisfactory stability and maintained high anti-inflammatory activity in a simulated gastrointestinal digestion. The mechanism by which the IVYPWTQR protected against LPS-mediated inflammation response was attributed to downregulating the TLR4/NF-kB/iNOS pathway. Moreover, IVYPWTQR ameliorated oxidative stress damage in inflammatory state was attributed to activating antioxidant defence system, which was regulated by Keap-1/NRF2/HO-1 signalling pathway for decreasing the accumulation of reactive oxide species (ROS). In summary, these results indicated GBP could serve as a potential functional factor for prevention and improvement of inflammation mediated by LPS and provided an affordable dietary intervention strategy to prevent inflammation.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:15637.

Abstract
For over 20 years, bovine beta-casein has been a subject of increasing scientific interest because its genetic A1 variant during gastrointestinal digestion releases opioid-like peptide β-casomorphin-7 (β-CM-7). Since β-CM-7 is involved in the dysregulation of many physiological processes, there is a growing discussion of whether the consumption of the β-casein A1 variant has an influence on human health. In the last decade, the number of papers dealing with this problem has substantially increased. The newest clinical studies on humans showed a negative effect of variant A1 on serum glutathione level, digestive well-being, cognitive performance score in children, and mood score in women. Scientific reports in this field can affect the policies of dairy cattle breeders and the milk industry, leading to the elimination of allele A1 in dairy cattle populations and promoting milk products based on milk from cows with the A2A2 genotype. More scientific proof, especially in well-designed clinical studies, is necessary to determine whether a little difference in the β-casein amino acid sequence negatively affects the health of milk consumers.

Abstract
Peptides show biological activity, and are more easily digested than complex proteins. In the present work, we evaluated the effects of soy hydrolysate on skeletal muscle. Soy protein isolate (SPI) was hydrolysed using 2% Alcalase (SPHA) and Flavourzyme (SPHF) at pH 8 for 3 h at 60°C, and at pH 7 for 3 h at 55°C, respectively. Antioxidant properties (total phenolic content and DPPH activity) and inhibition of muscle loss (myogenin, myosin heavy chain [MyHC], creatine kinase, and myostatin) by the SPI hydrolysates in C2C12 cells were compared with those of SPI. Alcalase produced more hydrolysed soy oligopeptides than Flavourzyme. Enzymatic hydrolysis increased the levels of essential amino acids, particularly in SPHF (2,466.85 mg/L) as compared to SPI (56.08 mg/L). The total phenolic contents of hydrolysates increased from 12.02 mg GAE/g in SPI to 22.87 and 18.67 mg GAE/g in SPHA and SPHF, respectively. The IC50 value of DPPH activity decreased four times after hydrolysis (SPI: 124.38, SPHA: 32.18, and SPHF: 30.21 mg/mL). SPHA and SPHF treatments increased the expression levels of both MyHC1 and MyHC3, as well as creatine kinase activity. A significant increase in MyHC3 expression was observed in SPHF at 10 µg/mL. Soy hydrolysates (SPHA: 93.5% and SPHF: 61%) induced a greater decrease in the expression of myostatin, a muscle reduction marker, than SPI (30.4%). In conclusion, soy hydrolysates may inhibit muscle loss, showing particularly better effects when Alcalase is used for hydrolysis.

Abstract
The bioaccessibility and bioavailability of food-derived bioactive compounds are important issues when assessing their in vivo physiological health-promoting effects. Food components such as proteins and peptides are exposed to different proteases and peptidases during gastrointestinal digestion and absorption. Different in vitro approaches have therefore been developed to evaluate the bioaccessibility and stability of bioactive peptides. The static simulated gastrointestinal digestion model (SGD) was widely reported to assess the bioaccessibility of bioactive peptides. On the other hand, although the dynamic SGD model may better simulate human digestion, it has rarely been explored in bioaccessibility studies of food bioactive peptides due to its high cost and lack of standardization. For bioavailability studies, the Caco-2 cell monolayer model has been used extensively for the assessment of food bioactive peptides. In fact, very few reports using alternative methods for determining transepithelial transport of bioactive peptides have been employed. In this sense, ex vivo tissue-based models such as the Ussing chamber and the everted sac gut have been used. Current evidence supports the fact that using SGD with cell-based models for evaluating the bioaccessibility, absorption, and bioavailability of food-derived bioactive peptides, is the most commonly used approach. Nevertheless, SGD with ex vivo tissue-based models such as the everted sac, remains to be further explored because it seems to be the model that better mimics the physiological process - it is also fast and inexpensive, and several compounds may be tested simultaneously. In the present review, we discuss information available on the different in vitro approaches for the determination of bioaccessibility and bioavailability of food-derived bioactive peptides with special emphasis on ex vivo tissue-based models such as the everted sac and the Ussing chamber models. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most common chronic multifactorial diseases, which is associated with the increased concentration of glucose in the blood. Therefore, the utilization of blood lowering agents is clearly a promising approach which can lead to a suppression of the evaluated blood glucose, and thus curing T2DM and other complication. In this study, we evaluated the glucose lowering effect of a varieties of amino acids (alanine and histidine), dipeptides (carnosine and α-alanine-L-histidine), and tripeptide (glutathione) by reacting with glucose, fructose, and sucrose under 37°C and pH 7.4 to mimic their reaction in physiological condition. By measuring the reduction of reactants and the formation of Maillard reaction products over the course of 21 days’ storage, we found that the glucose lowering effect of carnosine was better than the counterparts. The histidine residue in carnosine may contribute to its glucose lowing effect while β-amino acid β-alanine residue could facilitate the glucose lowering effect of carnosine by maintaining its chemical stability during the storage. These results may open up new avenues for the applications of bioactive peptide carnosine as a natural blood sugar lowering agent to control T2DM.

Abstract
Tripeptide NCW identified in Mizuhopecten yessoensis has been shown to possess in vivo antihypertensive effect. However, the poor understanding of the absorption of NCW across the membrane limits its application. In this study, we have investigated the interaction of NCW with DPPC membrane via 400 ns all-atom molecular dynamic simulation using GROMACS software. The structural variations of NCW during absorption, the location and distribution of NCW in the membrane, and the effect of NCW on the properties of membranes during simulation were analyzed to understand the dynamic behavior of NCW in DPPC membrane system. The results suggested that the structures of NCW were stable during simulation. Further, NCW could bind on the surface of the DPPC membrane and enter the hydrophobic interior of the DPPC membrane. Residue Try played an important role in the absorption of NCW across the membrane. Hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions stabilized the interaction of NCW with the membrane. All the above studies analyzed the interaction mechanism between NCW and DPPC membranes at the atomic level and laid the foundation for further transmembrane studies of NCW.
