Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the in situ insulinotropic effects of pea protein hydrolysates (PPHs) mediated by active glucagon-like peptide-17-36 (active GLP-1) using a 2D and dual-layered coculture cell model. Following this model, a mixed Caco-2 and NCI-H716 cell monolayer was differentiated on the apical side to study the effects of PPHs on active GLP-1 levels; meanwhile, the beta-TC-6 cells were seeded on the basolateral side to investigate the insulin responses induced by active GLP-1. The in situ DPP-4 half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of PPHs, PPHs-120G, and PPHs-120I was 2.94, 3.43, and 2.26 mg/mL, respectively. They directly stimulated active GLP-1 secretion in NCI-H716 cells by 3.03 ± 0.21, 1.99 ± 0.03, and 2.24 ± 0.02 times, respectively. Insulin release in beta-TC-6 cells was directly stimulated by PPHs but not by PPHs-120G and PPHs-120I. Interestingly, PPHs-120G and PPHs-120I indirectly stimulated insulin release in this coculture cell model by enhancing active GLP-1 concentrations. More importantly, PPHs, PPHs-120G, and PPHs-120I increase active GLP-1 levels by their dual function of stimulating active GLP-1 secretion and DPP-4 inhibition. This study suggests that the 2D and dual-layered coculture cell model supports a more comprehensive assessment of in situ insulinotropic effects of protein hydrolysates mediated by active GLP-1.

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
Synbiotics are a new class of live therapeutics employing engineered genetic circuits. The rapid adoption of genetic editing tools has catalyzed the expansion of possible synbiotics, exceeding traditional testing paradigms in terms of both throughput and model complexity. Herein, we present a simplistic gut-chip model using common Caco2 and HT-29 cell lines to establish a dynamic human screening platform for a cortisol sensing tryptamine producing synbiotic for cognitive performance sustainment. The synbiotic, SYN, was engineered from the common probiotic E. coli Nissle 1917 strain. It had the ability to sense cortisol at physiological concentrations, resulting in the activation of a genetic circuit that produces tryptophan decarboxylase and converts bioavailable tryptophan to tryptamine. SYN was successfully cultivated within the gut-chip showing log-phase growth comparable to the wild-type strain. Tryptophan metabolism occurred quickly in the gut compartment when exposed to 5 μM cortisol, resulting in the complete conversion of bioavailable tryptophan into tryptamine. The flux of tryptophan and tryptamine from the gut to the vascular compartment of the chip was delayed by 12 h, as indicated by the detectable tryptamine in the vascular compartment. The gut-chip provided a stable environment to characterize the sensitivity of the cortisol sensor and dynamic range by altering cortisol and tryptophan dosimetry. Collectively, the human gut-chip provided human relevant apparent permeability to assess tryptophan and tryptamine metabolism, production, and transport, enabled host analyses of cellular viability and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion, and succeeded in providing an efficacy test of a novel synbiotic. Organ-on-a-chip technology holds promise in aiding traditional therapeutic pipelines to more rapidly down select high potential compounds that reduce the failure rate and accelerate the opportunity for clinical intervention.

Abstract
There is currently no appropriate cell model suitable for evaluating the insulinotropic effects of DPP-4 inhibitory peptides (DPP-4IPs) mediated by active glucagon-like peptide-17-36 (active GLP-1). The study aims to evaluate the transepithelial transport of IPYWTY on its in situ insulinotropic effects by using a 2D and dual-layered coculture cell model that consists of Caco-2 and NCI-H716 cells on the apical (AP) side and β-TC-6 cells on the basolateral (BL) side. During transportation, IPYWTY was absorbed in its intact form through PepT1 and paracellular transport. Meanwhile, it was degraded to several peptide fragments, including PYWTY, YWTY, WTY, and IPY, which decreased its in situ DPP-4 inhibitory activity. IPYWTY does not directly stimulate insulin release in β-TC-6 cells, while it increased the active GLP-1 level from 76.57 ± 15.16 to 95.63 ± 1.99 pM (1.25 times) in NCI-H716 cells. Interestingly, IPYWTY indirectly increased insulin levels from 426.91 ± 6.07 to 573.94 ± 2.97 μIU/mL (1.34 times) in the 2D and dual-layered coculture cell model for its dual function of stimulating active GLP-1 secretion and DPP-4 inhibition. These results suggested that the 2D and dual-layered coculture cell model is an alternative strategy for effectively evaluating the insulinotropic effects of DPP-4IPs mediated by active GLP-1.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) is one of the main targets for blood sugar control. Some food protein-derived peptides are thought to have DPP-IV inhibitory (DPP-IVi) activity. In this study, chickpea protein hydrolysates (CPHs) obtained through Neutrase hydrolysis for 60 min (CPHs-Pro-60) exhibited the highest DPP-IVi activity. DPP-IVi activity after simulated in vitro gastrointestinal digestion was maintained at >60%. Peptide libraries are established after the identification of peptide sequences. Molecular docking verified that the four screened peptides (AAWPGHPEF, LAFP, IAIPPGIPYW, and PPGIPYW) could bind to the active center of DPP-IV. Notably, IAIPPGIPYW exhibited the most potent DPP-IVi activity (half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50): 12.43 μM). Both IAIPPGIPYW and PPGIPYW exhibited excellent DPP-IVi activity in Caco-2 cells. These results indicated that chickpea could be used as a source of natural hypoglycemic peptides for food and nutritional applications.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl Peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides are attracting increasing attention, owing to their potential role in glycemic regulation by preventing the inactivation of incretins. However, few reviews have summarized the current understanding of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides and their knowledge gaps. This paper reviews the production, identification and structure-activity relationships (SAR) of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides. Importantly, their bioavailability and hypoglycemic effects are critically discussed. Unlike the traditional method to identifying peptides after separation step by step, the bioinformatics approach identifies peptides via virtual screening that is more convenient and efficient. In addition, the bioinformatics approach was also used to investigate the SAR of peptides. Peptides with proline (Pro) or alanine (Ala) residue at the second position of N-terminal are exhibit strong DPP-IV inhibitory activity. Besides, the bioavailability of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides is related to their gastrointestinal stability and cellular permeability, and in vivo studies showed that the glucose homeostasis has been improved by these peptides. Especially, the intestinal transport of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides and cell biological assays used to evaluate their potential role in glycemic regulation are innovatively summarized. For further successful development of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides in glycemic regulation, future study should elucidate their SAR and in vivo hypoglycemic effects .

Abstract
Faba beans are a promising emerging plant-based protein source to be used as a quality alternative to peas and soy. In this study, the potential health beneficial activities of three Canadian faba bean varieties (Fabelle, Malik and Snowbird) were investigated after in vitro gastrointestinal digestion and compared to two commonly used legumes (peas and soy). The results revealed that the faba beans had a higher antioxidant activity than peas when assessed with the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and the 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) assays, except for the Fabelle variety. In the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) and the iron chelating assays, the faba beans had a lower antioxidant activity than soy. Interestingly, Fabelle and Snowbird showed a higher antioxidant effect than the peas and soy at the cellular level. The antihypertensive properties of Fabelle and Malik varieties were significantly higher than peas but lower than soy. The in vitro antidiabetic activity was higher for soy, but no differences were found at the cellular level. The faba bean peptides were further fractionated and sequenced by mass spectrometry. Eleven peptides with in silico predicted bioactivities were successfully identified in the faba bean digestate and support validating the health-promoting properties of peptides. The results demonstrate the bioactive potential of faba beans as a health-promoting food ingredient against non-communicable diseases.

In Vivo and In Vitro Comparison of the DPP-IV Inhibitory Potential of Food Proteins from Different Origins after Gastrointestinal Digestion. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23158365.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl-peptidase IV (DPP-IV) plays an essential role in glucose metabolism by inactivating incretins. In this context, food-protein-derived DPP-IV inhibitors are promising glycemic regulators which may act by preventing the onset of type 2 diabetes in personalized nutrition. In this study, the DPP-IV-inhibitory potential of seven proteins from diverse origins was compared for the first time in vitro and in vivo in rat plasma after the intestinal barrier (IB) passage of the indigested proteins. The DPP-IV-inhibitory potentials of bovine hemoglobin, caseins, chicken ovalbumin, fish gelatin, and pea proteins were determined in rat plasma thirty minutes after oral administration. In parallel, these proteins, together with bovine whey and gluten proteins, were digested using the harmonized INFOGEST protocol adapted for proteins. The DPP-IV half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was determined in situ using Caco-2 cells. The DPP-IV-inhibitory activity was also measured after IB passage using a Caco2/HT29-MTX mixed-cell model. The peptide profiles were analyzed using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (RP-HPLC-MS/MS) with MS data bioinformatics management, and the IC50 of the identified peptides was predicted in silico. The in vitro and in vivo DPP-IV-inhibitory activity of the proteins differed according to their origin. Vegetable proteins and hemoglobin yielded the highest DPP-IV-inhibitory activity in vivo. However, no correlation was found between the in vivo and in vitro results. This may be partially explained by the differences between the peptidome analysis and the in silico predictions, as well as the study complexity.

methyl-N'-[(Z)-substituted-phenyl ethylidene] imidazo [1, 2-a] pyridine-3-carbohydrazide derivatives as
DPP-IV inhibitors for the treatment of T2DM.
Methods:
The molecular docking was performed to study these derivatives' binding mode in the enzyme's
allosteric site. All the synthesized compounds were subjected for DPP-IV enzyme assay and in vivo antihyperglycemic
activity in STZ-induced diabetic rats.
Results:
The synthesized derivatives exhibited potent antidiabetic activity as compared to the standard
drug Sitagliptin. Out of sixteen compounds, A1, A4, B4, C2, C3, and D4 have shown promising antidiabetic
activity against the DPP-IV enzyme. The most promising compound, C2, showed a percentage inhibition
of 72.02±0.27 at 50 μM concentration. On the 21st-day, compound C2 showed a significant reduction
in serum blood glucose level, i.e., 156.16±4.87 mg/dL, then diabetic control, which was
280.00±13.29 mg/dL whereas, standard Sitagliptin showed 133.50±11.80 mg/dL. In the in vivo antihyperglycemic
activity, the compounds have exhibited good hypoglycemic potential in fasting blood glucose
in the T2DM animal model. All the docked molecules have exhibited perfect binding affinity towards
the active pocket of the enzyme. The synthesized derivatives were screened through Lipinski's rule
of five for better optimization, and fortunately, none of them violated the rule.
Conclusion:
The above results indicate that compound C2 is a relatively active and selective hit molecule
that can be structurally modified to enhance the DPP-IV inhibitor's potency and overall pharmacological
profile. From the present work, it has been concluded that substituted pyridine-3-carbohydrazide derivatives
possess excellent DPP-IV inhibitory potential and can be better optimized further by generating
more in vivo, in vitro models.

Generation, characterization and molecular binding mechanism of novel dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitory peptides from sorghum bicolor seed protein. Food Chem 2022; 369:130888.

Abstract
Food proteins and their constituent peptides impart huge health benefits besides their nutritional attributes. Sorghum bicolor protein hydrolysates (SPH) and derived bioactive peptides generated by simulated gastrointestinal digestion were studied for DPP-4 inhibitory properties using in vitro and in situ assays. Identified peptides, LSICGEESFGTGSDHIR (PEP1), SLGESLLQEDVEAHK (PEP2) and QLRDIVDK (PEP4) displayed potent DPP-4 inhibition with IC50 values of 73.5, 82.5 and 8.55 µM respectively. DPP-4 inhibition mechanism by the peptides was investigated by DPP4-peptide inhibition kinetics, molecular docking and microscale thermophoresis binding studies. The peptides bound to DPP-4 with micromolar affinities and PEP4 showed significantly increased affinity. The mixed type enzyme inhibition by peptides suggested that the peptides either block the active site of DPP-4 or changes the enzyme conformation via a secondary binding site. Overall, the results demonstrate that sorghum seeds are an adequate source of peptides with DPP-4 inhibitory properties that could be used in functional food formulations.

Abstract
Dietary proteins are involved in the regulation of glucose homeostasis by different mechanisms. Food protein digestion products are reported to inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), induce incretin secretion or directly exert an insulinotropic effect in pancreatic β-cells. This study illustrates the DPP-IV inhibitory activity of gastric and intestinal digests of casein, whey and egg white proteins determined in vitro, using Gly-Pro-AMC, and in situ using non-differentiated Caco-2 cells. Comparable trends in the DPP-IV inhibitory profiles were obtained by these two methods although the extent of inhibition in situ was consistently lower than the inhibition observed in vitro. Casein intestinal digests and whey protein gastric and intestinal digests showed potent DPP-IV inhibitory activities in Caco-2 cells with IC50 values ranging from 0.8 to 1.2 mg mL-1. The absorbed fraction of the intestinal digests from whey and egg white protein induced insulin secretion in BRIN-BD11 cells when determined using a two-tiered cellular model (Caco-2 and BRIN-BD11). However, the gastric digests from the same substrates showed no insulin secretion. This may be related to limited trans-epithelial transport through the Caco-2 monolayer of the gastric digestion products. However, both, gastric and intestinal digests were able to induce insulin secretion in BRIN-BD11 cells when the monolayer was composed of a co-culture of STC-1 and Caco-2 cells. This result may be attributed to the activation of STC-1 cells and subsequent incretin secretion, induced by the gastric digest, as shown by an enhanced intracellular calcium uptake.

Abstract
Dietary polyphenols with great antidiabetic effects are the most abundant components in edible products. Dietary polyphenols have attracted attention as dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitors and indirectly improve insulin secretion. The DPP-IV inhibitory activities of dietary polyphenols depend on their structural diversity. Screening methods that can be used to rapidly and accurately identify potential polyphenol DPP-IV inhibitors are urgently needed. This review focuses on the relationship between the structures of dietary polyphenols and their DPP-IV inhibitory effects. Different characterization methods used for polyphenols as DPP-IV inhibitors have been summarized and compared. We conclude that the position and number of hydroxyl groups, methoxy groups, glycosylated groups, and the extent of conjugation influence the efficiency of inhibition of DPP-IV. Various combinations of methods, such as in-vitro enzymatic inhibition, ex-vivo/in-vivo enzymatic inhibition, cell-based in situ, and in-silico virtual screening, are used to evaluate the DPP-IV inhibitory effects of dietary polyphenols. Further investigations of polyphenol DPP-IV inhibitors will improve the bioaccessibility and bioavailability of these bioactive compounds. Exploration of (i) dietary polyphenols derived from multiple targets, that can prevent diabetes, and (ii) actual binding interactions via multispectral analysis, to understand the binding interactions in the complexes, is required.

In Vitro and In Vivo Effects of Palmaria palmata Derived Peptides on Glucose Metabolism. Int J Pept Res Ther 2021.

Abstract
AbstractThree synthetic peptides, ILAP, LLAP and MAGVDHI, derived from a Palmaria palmata protein hydrolysate were assessed for their antidiabetic potential in vitro and in vivo. In addition to inhibiting dipeptidyl peptidase-IV in a cell-based in situ assay all three peptides significantly increased the half-life of the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). ILAP and LLAP mediated a significant increase (p < 0.001) in insulin secretion from BRIN-BD11 cells compared to the glucose control, while MAGVDHI had no insulinotropic activity at an eqimolar concentration (10–6 M). A significant increase in the concentration of cyclic adenosine monophosphate production in BRIN-BD11 cells mediated by ILAP (p < 0.001) and LLAP (p < 0.01) compared to the basal control, would indicate that insulin secretion may be mediated by membrane based activation. Furthermore, ILAP and LLAP acted as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) secretagogues, stimulating a significant increase (p < 0.01) in the concentration of GIP released from enteroendocrine STC-1 cells compared to the glucose control. When tested in vivo in healthy male NIH Swiss mice, ILAP and LLAP, mediated a significant increase (p < 0.01) in plasma insulin and decrease (p < 0.05) in blood glucose, respectively, compared to the control. MAGVDHI mediated a significant (p < 0.001) sustained reduction in food intake in food deprived trained mice. These results demonstrate that the Palmaria palmata peptides studied herein have prospective antidiabetic activity and have the potential to act as agents that can be used alone or in combination with drugs, to aid in the prevention and management of Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Chlorella pyrenoidosa (C. pyrenoidosa) is a microalgae species with a remarkably high protein content that may potentially become a source of hypotensive and hypoglycemic peptides. In this study, C. pyrenoidosa proteins were extracted and hydrolyzed overnight with pepsin and trypsin with final degrees of hydrolysis of 18.7% and 35.5%, respectively. By LC-MS/MS, 47 valid peptides were identified in the peptic hydrolysate (CP) and 66 in the tryptic one (CT). At the concentration of 1.0 mg/mL, CP and CT hydrolysates inhibit in vitro the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activity by 84.2 ± 0.37% and 78.6 ± 1.7%, respectively, whereas, tested at cellular level at the concentration of 5.0 mg/mL, they reduce the ACE activity by 61.5 ± 7.7% and 69.9 ± 0.8%, respectively. At the concentration of 5.0 mg/mL, they decrease in vitro the DPP-IV activity by 63.7% and 69.6% and in Caco-2 cells by 38.4% and 42.5%, respectively. Short peptides (≤10 amino acids) were selected for investigating the potential interaction with ACE and DPP-IV by using molecular modeling approaches and four peptides were predicted to block both enzymes. Finally, the stability of these peptides was investigated against gastrointestinal digestion.

Abstract
Inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) has been identified as a promising approach for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, development of DPP-IV inhibitors with new chemical scaffold is of utmost importance to medicinal chemistry. In the present study, we identified benzophenone thio- and semicarbazone scaffolds as novel DPP-IV inhibitors. For that purpose, benzophenone thio- and semicarbazone were synthesized through a 2-step reaction. These newly synthetic derivatives were characterized by different spectroscopic techniques, including HREI-MS and NMR. whereas stereochemistry of the iminic bond was predicted by NOESY experiments. Thio- and semicarbazones derivatives were evaluated for their DPP-IV inhibitory potential and found to exhibit a good to moderate enzyme inhibitory activity. Most active and non-cytotoxic derivatives were further evaluated for their DPP-IV inhibitory potential in in cellulo model. The binding sites as well as affinity of active compounds for DPP- IV enzyme were predicted by in silico studies, and compared to a standard drug, sitagliptin. Pharmacophore studies of thio- and semicarbazones derivatives 1-29 suggest that substitution of aryl group, particularly a lipophilic substituents at C-4″ of benzene ring, and a hydroxyl at C-4' strongly influenced the DPP-IV inhibitory activity. Compound 9 showed the highest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 15.0 ± 0.6 µM), whereas compounds 10, 17, 12, 14 and 23 showed a moderate activity with IC50 values in the range of 28.9-39.2 µM. This study identifies thio- and semicarbazones as new classes of DPP-IV inhibitors which may translate into safe and effective therapeutics for a better management of type 2 diabetes.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
Here, we characterize the activities of two depeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides, VLATSGPG and LDKVFER, using the Caco-2 monolayer model for the intestine. VLATSGPG and LDKVFR inhibited the DPP-IV in the cells via a mixed-type inhibition mode, with in situ IC50 values of 207.3 and 148.5 μM, respectively. Furthermore, VLATSGPG and LDKVFR were transported intact across the cells, with Papp values of 2.41 ± 0.16 and 4.23 ± 0.29 × 10-7 cm/s, respectively. Fragmented peptides were identified in the basolateral side of the membrane. Two of these, GPG and VLA, exhibited high inhibitory activities of 83.6 ± 3.3 and 58.5 ± 2.5%, respectively, at 100 μM concentration. Although 3 mM VLATSGPG and LDKVFR were transported across the epithelium in a concentration-dependent manner, their transport did not damage the tight junction proteins, ZO-1 and occludin. This study demonstrates that the two peptides potentially regulate DPP-IV activity in the intestine.

Abstract
P5 (LILPKHSDAD) is a hypocholesterolemic peptide from lupin protein with a multi-target activity, since it inhibits both 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCoAR) and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9). This work shows that, during epithelial transport experiments, the metabolic transformation mediated by intestinal peptidases produces two main detected peptides, ILPKHSDAD (P5-frag) and LPKHSDAD (P5-met), and that both P5 and P5-met are linearly absorbed by differentiated human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Extensive comparative structural, biochemical, and cellular characterizations of P5-met and the parent peptide P5 demonstrate that both peptides have unique characteristics and share the same mechanisms of action. In fact, they exert an intrinsically multi-target behavior being able to regulate cholesterol metabolism by modulating different pathways. The results of this study also highlight the dynamic nature of bioactive peptides that may be modulated by the biological systems they get in contact with.

Abstract
Like their owners, dogs and cats are more and more affected by overweight and obesity-related problems and interest in functional pet foods is growing sharply. Through numerous studies, fish protein hydrolysates have proved their worth to prevent and manage obesity-related comorbidities like diabetes. In this work, a human in vitro static simulated gastrointestinal digestion model was adapted to the dog which allowed us to demonstrate the promising effects of a tilapia byproduct hydrolysate on the regulation of food intake and glucose metabolism. Promising effects on intestinal hormones secretion and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity were evidenced. We identify new bioactive peptides able to stimulate cholecystokinin (CCK) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) secretions, and to inhibit the DPP-IV activity after a transport study through a Caco-2 cell monolayer.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal digestion of food proteins can generate peptides with a wide range of biological activities. In this study, we screened various potential bioactivities generated by plant-based proteins. Whey protein as an animal protein reference, five grades of pea protein, two grades of wheat protein, and potato, fava bean, and oat proteins were submitted to in vitro SGID. They were then tested in vitro for several bioactivities including measures on: (1) energy homeostasis through their ability to modulate intestinal hormone secretion, to inhibit DPP-IV activity, and to interact with opioid receptors; (2) anti-hypertensive properties through their ability to inhibit ACE activity; (3) anti-inflammatory properties in Caco-2 cells; (4) antioxidant properties through their ability to inhibit production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Protein intestinal digestions were able to stimulate intestinal hormone secretion by enteroendocrine cells, to inhibit DPP-IV and ACE activities, to bind opioid receptors, and surprisingly, to decrease production of ROS. Neither pro- nor anti-inflammatory effects have been highlighted and some proteins lost their pro-inflammatory potential after digestion. The best candidates were pea, potato, and fava bean proteins.

Assessment of the DPP-IV inhibitory activity of a novel octapeptide derived from rapeseed using Caco-2 cell monolayers and molecular docking analysis. J Food Biochem 2020; 44:e13406. [PMID: 32734634 DOI: 10.1111/jfbc.13406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2020] [Revised: 06/19/2020] [Accepted: 07/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
The Octapeptide ELHQEEPL, which was identified from the rapeseed protein napin showed prominent Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity. The objective of this study was to investigate the DPP-IV inhibitory activity and transepithelial transport of ELHQEEPL in an approaching intestinal condition using Caco-2 cell monolayers. ELHQEEPL and its degraded fragments EL, HQEEP, and methylated ELHQEEPL were transported across Caco-2 cell monolayers through different pathways. Compared with the nonbiological enzyme inhibition test, the in vitro experiment on Caco-2 cell monolayers showed that the IC50 value of DPP-IV inhibition increased by 43.11% for ELHQEEPL. There was no significant change in DPP-IV gene expression in the Caco-2 cell monolayers upon treatment with ELHQEEPL. Furthermore, molecular docking predicted that the weaker binding between inhibitory peptide and enzyme for the degradation products from ELHQEEPL during transepithelial transport greatly limited its role in inhibiting DPP-IV. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: The DPP-IV inhibitory activity of ELHQEEPL was confirmed using Caco-2 cell monolayers as a novel assessment tool, although its potency was reduced by metabolic degradation. In general, this study reported the use of Caco-2 cell monolayers as a tool for comprehensively studying peptides as sources of DPP-IV inhibitors. A Caco-2 cell-based approach with molecular docking can be adapted for the investigation of intestinal absorption and activity attenuation of food peptides being considered for enzymatic action. Moreover, since the Caco-2 cells express a wide range of enzymes, this method can be used for screening for other active food peptides such as for the inhibitors of ACE and a-glucosidase.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides released from the enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins are currently a trending topic in the scientific community. Their potential as antidiabetic agents, by regulating the glycemic index, and thus to be employed in food formulation, is one of the most important functions of these peptides. In this review, we aimed to summarize the whole process that must be considered when talking about including these molecules as a bioactive ingredient. In this regard, at first, the production, purification and identification of bioactive peptides is summed up. The detailed metabolic pathways described included carbohydrate hydrolases (glucosidase and amylase) and dipeptidyl-peptidase IV inhibition, due to their importance in the food-derived peptides research field. Then, their characterization, concerning bioavailability in vitro and in situ, stability and functionality in food matrices, and ultimately, the in vivo evidence (from invertebrate animals to humans), was described. The future applicability that these molecules have due to their biological potential as functional ingredients makes them an important field of research, which could help the world population avoid suffering from several diseases, such as diabetes.

Food Res Int 2020; 131:108989.

Abstract
Twenty-two novel dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides (with IC50 values <200 µM) and fifteen novel insulinotropic peptides were identified in a boarfish protein hydrolysate generated at semi-pilot scale using Alcalase 2.4L and Flavourzyme 500L. This was achieved by bioassay-driven semi-preparative reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography fractionation, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and confirmatory studies with synthetic peptides. The most potent DPP-IV inhibitory peptide (IPVDM) had a DPP-IV half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 21.72 ± 1.08 µM in a conventional in vitro and 44.26 ± 0.65 µM in an in situ cell-based (Caco-2) DPP-IV inhibition assay. Furthermore, this peptide stimulated potent insulin secretory activity (1.6-fold increase compared to control) from pancreatic BRIN-BD11 cells grown in culture. The tripeptide IPV exhibited potent DPP-IV inhibitory activity (IC50: 5.61 ± 0.20 µM) comparable to that reported for the known DPP-IV inhibitor IPI (IC50: 3.20 µM). Boarfish proteins contain peptide sequences with potential to play a role in glycaemic management in vivo.

Abstract
The objective of this paper was to investigate the hydrolysis and transepithelial transport of egg white peptides in Caco-2 cell monolayers and everted rat sacs. Results showed that egg white peptides had higher permeability but lower degradation in Caco-2 cell monolayers than found for everted rat sacs. Peptides LGAKDSTRT, DGSRQPVDN, VNDLQGKTS, and GKKDPVLKD were identified from not only the basolateral (BL) side of Caco-2 cell monolayers but also the serous side of everted rat sacs, suggesting that these four peptides could be transported intact in both model systems. In addition, there were 24 peptides identified from the apical (AP) side of Caco-2 cell monolayers and the mucosal side of everted rat sacs, indicating potential resistance to hydrolysis by brush border membrane peptidases. Among these, peptides IRDLLER, YAEERYP, and IRNVLQPS were demonstrated as having dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activities with IC50 values of 186.23 ± 15.25, 340.62 ± 4.73, and 598.28 ± 15.12 μM ( P < 0.05), respectively. Furthermore, molecular docking revealed that the DPP-IV inhibitory peptides were predicted to form hydrogen-bonds, π-π bonds, and charge interactions with the activity sites, especially the amino acid residues located in the S2 pocket of DPP-IV, potentially contributing to their DPP-IV inhibitory activities.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) is a serine exo-peptidase that can inactivate incretins by removing N-terminal dipeptides. Currently, inhibiting the DPP-IV activity is a common treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D). The goal of this study is to investigate whether IADHFL, a novel DPP-IV inhibitory peptide identified from bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis), has the potential to modulate T2D. IADHFL remained stable after simulated gastrointestinal digestion and significantly decreased the activity and expression of both soluble and membrane-bound DPP-IV after 24 h and 48 h of treatment. Intact peptide absorption was observed, but a percentage of the peptide was degraded while passing through a monolayer of Caco-2 cells. In addition, a double-layered cell model showed that the peptide could increase insulin secretion from INS-1 cells after glucose treatments of 2.8 mM and 16.7 mM. Finally, IADHFL could regulate the expression levels of genes associated with insulin secretion and T2D in INS-1 cells.

Abstract
Recent investigations have focused on food-derived peptides as novel natural inhibitors of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), a new target for diabetes. This study aimed to optimize fast, sensitive, and cost-effective DPP-IV assays in situ on human intestinal Caco-2 cells and ex vivo on human serum. Both assays were applied to investigate the inhibitory activity of soy and lupin peptides. The best conditions for in situ DPP-IV activity in Caco-2 cells were obtained using 2-day cells and 50 µM Gly-Pro-AMC. Sitagliptin, used as reference inhibitor, showed a dose-dependent response with a 50% inhibition concentration (IC50) of 0.6 µM. A lower IC50 (0.2 µM) was obtained for sitagliptin on human serum incubated with the substrate for 24 h. Both assays were applied to assess the activity of Lup1 (LTFPGSAED) and Soy1 (IAVPTGVA) on DPP-IV. Lup1 and Soy1 inhibited DPP-IV in situ, with IC50 values of of 207.5 and 223.2 µM, respectively, and maintained their inhibitory activity ex vivo on circulating DPP-IV with a slightly lower potency. These assays can be used to characterize the DPP-IV inhibitory activity of food-derived molecules more accurately than in vitro biochemical tests. This combined approach also considers their effects on the circulating form of DPP-IV, correlated to metabolic diseases.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) is involved in incretin hormone processing and therefore plays a key role in glycemic regulation. This review summarizes the latest developments in food protein-derived DPP-IV inhibitory peptides. The in silico approaches currently used to develop targeted strategies for the enzymatic release of DPP-IV inhibitory peptides from food proteins are outlined. The features within the primary sequences of potent DPP-IV inhibitory di-, tri-, and larger peptides, having half maximal inhibitory activity (IC50 ) < 100 µM, were evaluated and the outcomes are presented herein. It is proposed that detailed analysis of those food derived peptides identified in humans following ingestion may constitute a practical strategy for the targeted identification of novel bioavailable DPP-IV inhibitory peptides. Human intervention studies are required as the specific role of food protein-derived DPP-IV inhibitory peptides in the regulation of glycaemia in humans remains to be fully elucidated. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: This review provides recent information on dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides arising from food protein hydrolysates. Small animal studies have demonstrated that food protein hydrolysates with in vitro DPP-IV inhibitory properties also display antidiabetic activity. DPP-IV inhibitory peptides may be used as food ingredients to improve glycemic regulation in Type 2 diabetics. Therefore, the development of potent DPP-IV inhibitory hydrolysates containing bioavailable peptides in humans is of significant interest. This may help in the formulation of foods containing physiologically relevant doses of bioactive hydrolysates/peptides. Acquisition of detailed knowledge of DPP-IV inhibitory peptide features via the utilization of in silico tools may help to optimize the release of potent DPP-IV inhibitory peptides during enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins. This review provides information on features within the primary sequences of potent DPP-IV inhibitory peptides and current in silico strategies which may be used to inform on the targeted enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins.
