Abstract
Hemoglobin is an excellent source of iron supplements, and its hydrolyzate spontaneously binds iron during digestion and promotes iron absorption in vivo. However, the underlying mechanisms of what peptides bind and how they bind iron ions remain unclear. This study prepared the porcine hemoglobin hydrolyzate through enzymatic hydrolysis and acid treatment and investigated the mechanisms of hemoglobin hydrolyzate on iron absorption through the determination of iron levels in dietary intervention mice, iron binding site analyses, peptide digestion analyses, molecular simulation docking, and INT407 cell validation. The results showed that ingestion of the hemoglobin hydrolyzate diets increased iron levels in the blood of mice, accompanied by the upregulation of duodenal iron circulation-related genes such as ferritin, PCBP1, and HP. Carboxyl, imidazole groups, and aromatic amino acid residues were iron binding sites of hemoglobin hydrolyzate during digestion. VDEVGGEA and VDEVGGE were found to involve the spontaneous and efficient binding of hemoglobin hydrolyzate to iron ions in the intestinal cavity. In particular, the DEVGGE peptide was the typical sequence for hemoglobin hydrolytic peptides to exert iron binding activity.

Abstract
Mineral elements including calcium, iron, and zinc play crucial roles in human health. Their deficiency causes public health risk globally. Commercial mineral supplements have limitations; therefore, alternatives with better solubility, bioavailability, and safety are needed. Chelates of food-derived peptides and mineral elements exhibit advantages in terms of stability, absorption rate, and safety. However, low binding efficiency limits their application. Extensive studies have focused on understanding and enhancing the chelating activity of food-derived peptides with mineral elements. This includes obtaining peptides with high chelating activity, elucidating interaction mechanisms, optimizing chelation conditions, and developing techniques to enhance the chelating activity. This review provides a comprehensive theoretical basis for the development and utilization of food-derived peptide-mineral element chelates in the food industry. Efforts to address the challenge of low binding rates between peptides and mineral elements have yielded promising results. Optimization of peptide sources, enzymatic hydrolysis processes, and purification schemes have helped in obtaining peptides with high chelating activity. The understanding of interaction mechanisms has been enhanced through advanced separation techniques and molecular simulation calculations. Optimizing chelation process conditions, including pH and temperature, can help in achieving high binding rates. Methods including phosphorylation modification and ultrasonic treatment can enhance the chelating activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The global prevalence of iron deficiency has posed significant public health risks. Animal-derived collagen peptides have been recognized for their potent metal ion-chelating capabilities, which can greatly enhance the bioavailability of iron. Yak skins, typically discarded during production and processing, serve as a valuable resource. Based on yak skin collagen peptide (YSP), we have developed a novel iron-chelating peptide: yak skin collagen iron-chelating peptide (YSP-Fe). RESULTS The maximum level of iron chelation of YSP-Fe achieved was 42.72 ± 0.65 mg g-1. Structural analysis indicated that YSP-Fe was primarily formed from amino, carboxyl and carbonyl groups combined with ferrous ions. Through examination of the amino acid composition, molecular docking and peptide sequence identification, it was determined that Gly, Asp and Arg played crucial roles in the chelation of ferrous ions by YSP. Furthermore, YSP-Fe was more stable in simulated gastrointestinal digestion compared to FeSO4. CONCLUSION YSP-Fe demonstrated dual benefits of iron supplementation and antioxidant effects. These significant findings provide a foundation for the development of novel iron supplements and the effective utilization of yak skin as a valuable resource. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

BIOTECHNOLOGY REPORTS (AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS) 2024; 42:e00832. [PMID: 38948352 PMCID: PMC11211095 DOI: 10.1016/j.btre.2024.e00832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 01/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
The antioxidant and antiproliferative activity of red tilapia (Oreochromis spp.) viscera hydrolysates (RTVH) was evaluated. For that, the hydrolysates was applied to three cancer cell lines (HepG2, Huh7 and SW480) and the control (CCD-18Co). Finally, the line on which the hydrolysate had the greatest effect (SW480) and the control (CCD-18Co) were subjected to the ApoTox-Glo Triplex Assay to determine apoptosis, toxicity, and cell viability. The result showed that hydrolysate had a dose-dependent cytotoxic effect selective on the three cancer cell lines, compared to the control cells. There is a relationship between the antioxidant capacity of RTVHs and their antiproliferative capacity on cancer cells evaluated, which achieved cell viability by action of RTVH of 34.68 and 41.58 and 25.41 %, to HepG2, Huh7 and SW480, respectively. The action of RTVH on cancer cell line SW480 is not due to the induction of apoptosis but to the rupture of the cell membrane.

Abstract
This study compared collagens from cold-water and warm-water fish for their structural, rheological, and functional properties, and explored their potential applications, aiming to realize the high-value utilization of marine biological resources. To this end, chum salmon skin collagen (CSSC) and Nile tilapia skin collagen (NTSC) were both successfully extracted. Collagens from the two species had different primary and secondary structures, with NTSC having a higher molecular weight, imino acid content, and α-helices and β-turns content. The denaturation temperatures were 12.01 °C for CSSC and 31.31 °C for NTSC. CSSC was dominated by viscous behavior and its structure varied with temperature, while NTSC was dominated by elastic behavior and its structure remained stable with temperature. Both collagens had good oil holding capacity, foaming capacity, and emulsifying activity, but NTSC had better water holding capacity and foaming and emulsifying stability. Their different properties make CSSC more suitable for the preservation of frozen and chilled foods and the production of sparkling beverages, and give NTSC greater potential in biofunctional materials and solid food processing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is one of the commonest global nutritional deficiency diseases, and the low bioavailability of iron is a key contributing factor. The peptide-iron complex could be used as a novel iron supplement to improve iron bioavailability. RESULTS In this study, antioxidant low molecular weight (<3 kDa) phosvitin peptide (named PP-4) was separated to prepare a phosvitin peptide-ferrous complex (named PP-4-Fe); then the structural conformation of PP-4-Fe was characterized and its bioavailability by in vitro digestion was evaluated. The results showed that PP-4 had good ferrous-binding activity with 96.14 ± 2.86 μg Fe2+ mg-1 , and had a strong antioxidant effect with 995.61 ± 79.75 μmol TE mg-1 in 2,2'-azinobis'3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and 62.3 ± 3.95 μmol FeSO4 mg-1 in ferric ion reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). After ferrous binding, the FRAP activity of PP-4-Fe, enhanced by 1.8 times, formed a more ordered structure with an increase in α-helix and decrease in γ-random coil. The ferrous binding sites of PP-4 involved were the amino, carboxyl, imidazole, and phosphate groups. The PP-4-Fe complex displayed excellent gastrointestinal stability and antioxidant effects during digestion. The iron dialysis percentage of PP-4-Fe was 74.59% ± 0.68%, and increased to 81.10% ± 0.89% with the addition of 0.25 times vitamin C (VC). This indicated that PP-4-Fe displayed excellent bioavailability and VC in sufficient quantities had a synergistic effect on improving bioavailability. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that antioxidant phosvitin peptide was an efficient delivery system to protect ferrous ions and suggested that the phosvitin peptide-ferrous complex has strong potential as a ferrous supplement. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Refreshing beverages, consumed worldwide, commonly take advantage of caffeine's impacts on attention and motor performance. However, excessive long-term caffeine intake might disturb sleep/wake rhythms and exacerbate daily anxiety. Fish-originated collagen peptides (FCP) are of high nutrient value with stimulating, calming or relaxing effects, which could reduce the excitotoxicity of caffeine. This study aims to investigate two facets: (1) the combined effect of caffeine and FCP (namely C&F) on the cognitive function of sleep-deprived mice by different administration strategies with dose dependence (low and high dose) or time dependence (intervention in a day and prevention for a week); (2) the potential "microbiota-gut-brain" mechanism by which C&F improves sleep deprivation (SD)-induced cognitive impairments. Here, C57BL/6 mice were administered caffeine (10 or 20 mg per kg per bw) combined with FCP (100 or 200 mg per kg per bw) and were then subjected to 48 h SD. The open-field and Morris water maze tests were performed to evaluate the cognitive function and spatial learning capacities of mice. Our results indicated that the cognitive impairments of SD mice were significantly relieved to a different degree by treating C&F in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The pathological observation of the hippocampus indicated both intervention (time of a day) and prevention (time of a week) of the C&F protected brain tissue from SD-induced injuries. The accumulated pro-inflammatory neurometabolites and factors were significantly inhibited by C&F via the hypothalamus-hippocampal circuit. Furthermore, 16S rDNA analysis of colonic contents showed that the level of Lactobacillus murinus was significantly upregulated and that of Clostridia_UCG-014 was suppressed in the C&F group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of Lactobacillus murinus indicated a certain diagnostic utility to distinguish C&F intervention (AUC = 0.52) or prevention (AUC = 0.68). Pathways of ko04622 (immune system) and ko00472 (metabolism processes) were significantly regulated by C&F in a time-dependent manner. Based on PICRUSt2 algorithm analysis, C&F might potentially regulate gut microbial functions through several metabolic pathways, including the RIG-I-like receptor signaling pathway and limonene and pinene degradation. In conclusion, C&F plays a key role in brain function and behavior, which could synergistically relieve cognitive impairments via the microbiota-gut-brain axis.

Abstract
The utilization of peptide-chelated calcium is low due to the influence of factors such as solubility, heat and digestive environmental conditions; therefore, it is crucial to protect, prolong and stabilize this nutrient in order to enhance its efficacy. This study was conducted to prepare corn peptide-chelated calcium microcapsules using β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as the wall material through an improved ultrasonic-assisted method. The structure, solubility, thermal stability, and in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of these microcapsules were thoroughly investigated and analyzed. The microcapsules were prepared using the following recommended conditions: a chelate concentration of 5 mg/mL, a mass ratio of chelate to β-CD of 1:8 g/g, and a synchronous dual-frequency ultrasound (20/28 kHz) at a power of 75 W, a duty ratio of 20/5 s/s, and a time of 20 min. These specific parameters were carefully selected to ensure the optimal fabrication of the microcapsules. The results showed that the utilization of dual-frequency ultrasound resulted in a significant increase in both the encapsulation rate and yield, which were enhanced by 15.84 % and 15.68 %, respectively, reaching impressive values of 79.17 % and 90.60 %. Moreover, the results of the structure index analysis provided further confirmation that ultrasonic treatment had a significant impact on the structure of the microcapsules, leading to a noticeable reduction in particle size and transformation into nanoparticles. Furthermore, the microcapsules demonstrated excellent solubility within a wide pH range of 2 to 10, with solubility ranging from 93.54 % to 88.68 %. Additionally, these microcapsules exhibited remarkable thermal stability, retaining a minimum of 84.8 % of their stability when exposed to temperatures ranging from 40 to 80 °C. Moreover, during gastric and intestinal digestion, these microcapsules exhibited a high slow-release rate of 44.66 % and 51.6 %, indicating their ability to gradually release calcium contents. The inclusion of dual-frequency ultrasound in the preparation of high calcium microcapsules yielded promising outcomes. Overall, our work presents a novel method for synthesizing corn peptide-chelated calcium microcapsules with desirable properties such as good solubility, excellent thermal stability, and a significant slow-release effect. These microcapsules have the potential to serve as fortified high calcium supplements.

Abstract
Iron supplementation is a proactive approach to limit instances of iron deficiency anemia. This study is based on the enzymatic hydrolysis and fractionation of mung bean proteins (MBPs) followed by the determination of the Fe2+ chelating activities of these peptide-containing fractions. MBP-Fe complex was generated using a chemical chelation method and subsequently characterized. Following Sephadex G15 separation of MBPs, one of the fractions containing 10 different peptides, demonstrated maximum Fe2+ chelating activity of 39.97 ± 0.07 μg/mg. The sequences of these peptides were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The Fe2+ ion content of the MBP-Fe complex was determined using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and 80% of the iron was found to be in Fe2+ oxidation state. After iron chelation, there was an increase in the peptide's particle size, with an average value of 550.67 ± 0.70 nm. This increase in size was attributed to the contributions of the amino proline and glycine, which extended the peptides to form the MBP-Fe complex. Finally, molecular docking studies revealed that Fe2+ mainly bound to carboxy-oxygen of glutamate and aspartate residues of mung bean peptides to form MBP-Fe complex. This research could serve as a scientific foundation for the development of dietary iron supplements using plant-derived peptides.

Yu X, Liu X, Zhou D. A critical review of a typical research system for food-derived metal-chelating peptides: Production, characterization, identification, digestion, and absorption. Compr Rev Food Sci Food Saf 2024; 23:e13277. [PMID: 38284607 DOI: 10.1111/1541-4337.13277] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
In the past decade, food-derived metal-chelating peptides (MCPs) have attracted significant attention from researchers working towards the prevention of metal (viz., iron, zinc, and calcium) deficiency phenomenon by primarily inhibiting the precipitation of metals caused by the gastrointestinal environment and exogenous substances (including phytic and oxalic acids). However, for the improvement of limits of current knowledge foundations and future investigation directions of MCP or their derivatives, several review categories should be improved and emphasized. The species' uniqueness and differences in MCP productions highly contribute to the different values of chelating ability with particular metal ions, whereas comprehensive reviews of chelation characterization determined by various kinds of technique support different horizons for explaining the chelation and offer options for the selection of characterization methods. The reviews of chelation mechanism clearly demonstrate the involvement of potential groups and atoms in chelating metal ions. The discussions of digestive stability and absorption in various kinds of absorption model in vitro and in vivo as well as the theory of involved cellular absorption channels and pathways are systematically reviewed and highlighted compared with previous reports as well. Meanwhile, the chelation mechanism on the molecular docking level, the binding mechanism in amino acid identification level, the utilizations of everted rat gut sac model for absorption, and the involvement of cellular absorption channels and pathway are strongly recommended as novelty in this review. This review makes a novel contribution to the literature by the comprehensive prospects for the research and development of food-derived mineral supplements.

Abstract
Fish processing by-products such as frames, trimmings, and viscera of commercial fish species are rich in proteins. Thus, they could potentially be an economical source of proteins that may be used to obtain bioactive peptides and functional protein hydrolysates for the food and nutraceutical industries. The structure, composition, and biological activities of peptides and hydrolysates depend on the freshness and the actual composition of the material. Peptides isolated from fishery by-products showed antioxidant activity. Changes in hydrolysis parameters changed the sequence and properties of the peptides and determined their physiological functions. The optimization of the value of such peptides and the production costs must be considered for each particular source of marine by-products and for their specific food applications. This review will discuss the functional properties of fishery by-products prepared using hydrolysis and their potential food applications. It also reviews the structure-activity relationships of the antioxidant activity of peptides as well as challenges to the use of fishery by-products for protein hydrolysate production.

Abstract
Iron is one of the trace mineral elements, and iron deficiency is a common phenomenon that negatively influences human health. Food-derived iron supplements were considered excellent candidates for improving this syndrome. In this work, oyster-protein hydrolysates (OPH) and ferrous chloride successfully formed the OPH-Fe complex (6 mg/mL, 40 °C, 30 min), where the main binding sites involved were the carboxyl and amino groups. The OPH-Fe complex showed no obvious changes in the secondary structure, while the iron changed the morphological appearance and also showed fluorescence quenching, an ultraviolet shift, and an increase in size distribution. The OPH-Fe complex showed better dynamic absorption of iron (64.11 μmol/L) than ferrous sulfate (46.90 μmol/L), and the medium dose had better protective effects against iron-deficiency anemia in vivo. Three representative peptides (DGKGKIPEE, FAGDDAPRA, and VLDSGDGVTH) that were absorbed intact were identified. This experiment provided a theoretical foundation for further study of the digestion and absorption of the OPH-Fe complex.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Porcine nasal cartilage type II collagen-derived peptides (PNCPs) may be complexed with calcium to provide a highly bioavailable, low-cost, and effective calcium food supplement. However, the calcium-binding characteristics of PNCPs have not yet been investigated. In the present study, calcium-binding peptides were derived from porcine nasal cartilage type II collagen and the resulting PNCPs-Ca complex was characterized. RESULTS The study reveals that the calcium-binding capacity of PNCPs is closely related to enzymatic hydrolysis conditions. The highest calcium-binding capacity of PNCPs was observed at a hydrolysis time of 4 h, temperature of 40 °C, enzyme dosage of 1%, and solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:10. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed that the PNCPs had a pronounced capacity for calcium binding, with the PNCPs-Ca complex exhibiting a clustered structure consisting of aggregated spherical particles. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, amino acid composition, and molecular weight distribution analyses all indicated that the PNCPs and calcium complexed via the carboxyl oxygen and amino nitrogen atoms, leading to the formation of a β-sheet structure during the chelation process. In addition, the stability of the PNCPs-Ca complex was maintained over a range of pH values consistent with those found in the human gastrointestinal tract, facilitating calcium absorption. CONCLUSION These research findings suggest the feasibility of converting by-products from livestock processing into calcium-binding peptides, providing a scientific basis for the development of novel calcium supplements and the potential reduction of resource waste. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study was conducted to prepare calcium chelate of low-molecular-weight tuna bone collagen peptides (TBCPLMW) with a high chelation rate and to identify its structural characteristics and stability. The optimum conditions for calcium chelation of TBCPLMW (TBCPLMW-Ca) were determined through single-factor experiments and response surface methodology, and the calcium-chelating capacity reached over 90% under the optimal conditions. The amino acid compositions implied that Asp and Glu played important roles in the formation of TBCPLMW-Ca. Structural characterizations determined via spectroscopic analyses revealed that functional groups such as -COO-, N-H, C=O, and C-O were involved in forming TBCPLMW-Ca. The particle size distributions and scanning electron microscopy results revealed that folding and aggregation of peptides were found in the chelate. Stability studies showed that TBCPLMW-Ca was relatively stable under thermal processing and more pronounced changes have been observed in simulated gastric digestion, presumably the acidic environment was the main factor causing the dissociation of the TBCPLMW-Ca. The results of this study provide a scientific basis for the preparation of a novel calcium supplement and is beneficial for comprehensive utilization of tuna bones.

Abstract
Sucrose emerges as a metal-ion chelating agent with excellent stability that may increase metal-ion absorption. This study aimed to characterize the structure of zinc-sucrose complex and investigate its ability to promote zinc absorption in Caco-2 monolayer cells and mice. Based on the results of the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (ICP-ES), scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), it can be inferred that zinc and sucrose were chelated at a 1:1 ratio, with the hydroxyl groups playing a significant role. The Caco-2 monolayer cell model revealed that zinc-sucrose complex increased the amount of zinc uptake, retention, and transport in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Through the upregulation of genes and proteins for ZIP4, MT1, and DMT1, treatment with zinc-sucrose complex improved the proportion of absorbed zinc utilized for transport compared to ZnCl2 (26.21 ± 4.96 versus 8.50 ± 1.51%). Pharmacokinetic analysis of mice confirmed the zinc absorption-promoting effect of zinc-sucrose complex, as indicated by the considerably higher serum zinc level (4.16 ± 0.53 versus 2.56 ± 0.45 mg/L) and intestinal ZIP4, MT1, and DMT1 gene expression than ZnCl2. Further treatment of different zinc channel inhibitors and CETSA demonstrated the direct interaction of zinc-sucrose complex with ZIP4 protein and ZIP4-mediated cellular transport of zinc-sucrose complex. These findings provide a novel insight into the zinc absorption-promoting mechanism of zinc-sucrose complex, which could be used as an ingredient in functional foods to treat zinc deficiency.

Abstract
To reduce grievous ecological environment pollution and protein resource waste during mung bean starch production, mung bean peptides-calcium chelate (MBP-Ca) was synthesized as a novel and efficient calcium supplement. Under the optimal conditions (pH = 6, temperature = 45 °C, mass ratio of mung bean peptides (MBP)/CaCl2 = 4:1, MBP concentration = 20 mg/mL, time = 60 min), the obtained MBP-Ca achieved a calcium chelating rate of 86.26%. MBP-Ca, different from MBP, was a new compound rich in glutamic acid (32.74%) and aspartic acid (15.10%). Calcium ions could bind to MBP mainly through carboxyl oxygen, carbonyl oxygen, and amino nitrogen atoms to form MBP-Ca. Calcium ions-induced intra- and intermolecular interactions caused the folding and aggregation of MBP. After the chelation reaction between calcium ions and MBP, the percentage of β-sheet in the secondary structure of MBP increased by 1.90%, the size of the peptides increased by 124.42 nm, and the dense and smooth surface structure of MBP was transformed into fragmented and coarse blocks. Under different temperatures, pH, and gastrointestinal simulated digestion conditions, MBP-Ca exhibited an increased calcium release rate compared with the conventional calcium supplement CaCl2. Overall, MBP-Ca showed promise as an alternative dietary calcium supplement with good calcium absorption and bioavailability.

Abstract
Binuclear copper ions at the active site determine the catalysis of tyrosinase (TYR)1 whose activity can be inhibited by copper's chelation with other compounds. In this study, tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) skin was used to generate TYR-inhibitory peptides after being treated by different enzymes and 4 h-Alcaline protease hydrolysate exhibited the highest TYR inhibition and copper chelation. Immobilized metal affinity chromatography was used for purifying copper chelating peptides, among which PFRMY (IC50: 0.43 ± 0.08 mg/mL) and RGFTGM (IC50: 1.61 ± 0.04 mg/mL) exhibited the highest TYR-inhibitory capacity and the lowest docking energy. Both two peptides inhibited TYR in a mixed manner and interacted with key residues binding to copper ions within TYR mainly by hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic forces, while PFRMY had a more compact and stable conjugation with TYR. Zebrafish assay revealed that PFRMY reduced not only melanin synthesis but in vivo TYR activity.

Abstract
Given the importance of iron in human nutrition and the significance of waste and by-product valorisation in a circular economy environment, we investigated the effects of protein and iron concentration on the production yield of iron–peptide complexes from spent Saccharomyces cerevisiae. For this purpose, different amounts of protein and iron were used in the complexation process. The results have shown that higher concentrations, although permitting a faster and larger scale process, provide a significantly lower complexation yield, which deems the process less feasible. This is corroborated by fluorescence analysis, which shows a lower degree of complexation with higher protein concentration. In addition, varying the concentration of iron does not change the quality of formed complexes, as evidenced by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis. The morphology of all samples was also evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Therefore, further studies are needed to optimize the process and to evaluate the best conditions for an economically sound valorization process for iron–peptide complexes. Nonetheless, current results in the development of a new process for the valorisation of spent yeast, in the form of iron-peptide complexes, look promising.

For the mixed aqueous solution of LSL and COP, the interaction mode and mechanism have been comprehensively studied using multispectral methods including fluorescence spectrum, ultraviolet-visible adsorption spectrum (UV-Vis), and circular dichroism spectrum (CD). Then its surface activity, particle size, foaming, emulsifying, viscosity, and antibacterial properties are evaluated in detail by surface tension measurement (ST), dynamic light scattering (DLS), oscillametric method, spectrophotometer, ubbelohde viscometer and zone of inhibition separately. Compared with the single LSL or COP aqueous solution, the mixed system shows different performance optimizations in different aspects. The surface activity and foaming properties are mainly attributed to LSL, and the viscosity is attributed to COP. Fluorescence spectroscopy results show that the fluorescence distribution of COP has significant changes by the LSL addition and a static quenching mechanism is proved. The results of UV-Vis and CD spectra also show the changing conformation of COP by the LSL addition. The data of thermodynamic parameters prove that the combination of LSL and COP is a spontaneous exothermic process and is an enthalpy-driven process. The interaction mechanism between LSL and COP is very helpful for the application and development of the mixed mild biosurfactant-protein system used in the cosmetic and food industries.

Abstract
Seaweed and edible insects are considered new sources of bioactive peptides. Conventional approaches are necessary to validate the bioactivity of peptides. Bioinformatics tools accelerate the obtaining of bioactive peptides. The integrated approach is a promising strategy to obtain bioactive peptides.
The interest for food-derived bioactive peptides, either from common or unconventional sources, has increased due to their potential therapeutic effect against a wide range of diseases. The study of such bioactive peptides using conventional methods is a long journey, expensive and time-consuming. Hence, bioinformatic approaches, which can not only help to predict the formation of bioactive peptides from any known protein source, but also to analyze the protein structure/function relationship, have gained a new meaning in this scientific field. Therefore, this review aims to provides an overview of conventional characterization methods and the most recent advances in the field of in silico approaches for predicting and screening promising food-derived bioactive peptides.

Foods 2022; 11:foods11030468. [PMID: 35159617 PMCID: PMC8834476 DOI: 10.3390/foods11030468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 01/28/2022] [Accepted: 02/02/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, a calcium-binding peptide was obtained by hydrolyzing tilapia bone and its osteogenic activity was evaluated. Animal protease was selected from nine enzymes, and its hydrolysate was purified through preparative and semi-preparative reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The purified peptide was identified as DGPSGPK (656.32 Da) and its calcium-binding capacity reached 111.98 µg/mg. The peptide calcium chelate (DGPSGPK-Ca) was obtained, and its structure was characterized through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and mass spectrometry (MS). The results of XRD and SEM showed that DGPSGPK-Ca was formed as a new compound. The carboxyl and amino groups of Lys and Asp residues may be the chelating sites of DGPSGPK according to the FTIR and MS results. The molecular simulation showed the carbonyl groups of Asp, Pro, Ser, and Lys residues involved in the binding of calcium. The interaction of DGPSGPK and different integrins was evaluated by molecular docking simulation, and the main forces involved were electrostatic interaction forces, hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Furthermore, DGPSGPK could inhibit the differentiation of osteoclast and promote the proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts.

Abstract
Iron deficiency is a global nutritional problem that adversely affects the functional regulation of the immune system. In the process of treatment through iron supplementation, the problem of excessive iron intake often occurs, which increases the level of inflammation in the body. Excessive iron can also lead to an increase in intestinal iron-requiring pathogenic bacteria and an imbalance of intestinal flora. In this study, we aim to explore the effect of Ejiao peptide-iron (EPI) chelates on the intestinal flora and inflammation of ICR mice having iron-deficiency anemia (IDA). The mice were given low, medium, and high doses of EPI and FeSO4 (1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 mg Fe per kg weight, respectively) daily for 4 weeks by intragastric administration. IDA mice showed increased inflammation levels and decreased sIgA secretion, which were restored after intervention with EPI at different doses. Intestinal mucosal ulcers, inflammatory cell infiltration, and oxidative stress in the colon tissue were reduced, and intestinal permeability was improved. Furthermore, 16S rDNA gene sequencing revealed that EPI increased microbial diversity and richness, changing the community structure, therefore, alleviating microbiota dysbiosis caused by IDA (e.g. the proportion of Firmicutes/Bacteroides). Different from the traditional iron supplement FeSO4, when the pathogenic bacteria (e.g. Helicobacter and Erysipelatoclostridium) increase and the beneficial bacteria (e.g. Bifidobacterium and Blautia) decrease at high doses, EPI shows higher safety at a high dose, thereby maintaining a healthier intestinal homeostasis.
