Abstract
Impaired intestinal barrier function can impede the digestion and absorption of nutrients and cause a range of metabolic disorders, which are the main causes of intestinal disease. Evidence suggests that proper dietary protein intake can prevent and alleviate intestinal diseases. Egg white protein (EWP) has received considerable attention, because of its high protein digestibility and rich amino acid composition. Furthermore, bioactive peptides may have an increased repair effect due to their high degradation efficiency in the gut. In this study, we aimed to review the effects of EWP and its bioactive peptides on intestinal structural repair. The potential modulation mechanisms by which EWP and their peptides regulate the gut microbiota and intestinal barrier can be summarized as follows: (1) restoring the structure of the intestinal barrier to its intact form, (2) enhancing the intestinal immune system and alleviating the inflammatory response and oxidative damage, and (3) increasing the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria and metabolites. Further in-depth analysis of the coregulation of multiple signaling pathways by EWP is required, and the combined effects of these multiple mechanisms requires further evaluation in experimental models. Human trials can be considered to understand new directions for development.

Effects of dietary Clostridium butyricum and fructooligosaccharides, alone or in combination, on performance, egg quality, amino acid digestibility, jejunal morphology, immune function, and antioxidant capacity of laying hens. Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1125897. [PMID: 36910205 PMCID: PMC9992415 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1125897] [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: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of Clostridium butyricum (CB) and fructooligosaccharide (FOS) singly or combined, on performance, egg quality, amino acid digestibility, jejunal morphology, immune function and antioxidant capacity in peak-phase laying hens. A total of 288 Hy-Line Brown laying hens (30 weeks of age) were randomly assigned to 4 dietary groups that included basal diet, basal diet +0.02% of CB (zlc-17: 1 × 109 CFU/g) (PRO), basal diet +0.6% FOS (PRE), and basal diet +0.02% CB + 0.6% FOS (SYN) for 12 weeks. Each treatment had 6 replicates with 12 birds each. The results demonstrated that probiotics (PRO), prebiotics (PRE) and synbiotics (SYN) (p ≤ 0.05), respectively, exerted a positive effect on the performance and physiological response of the birds. There were significant increases in egg production rate, egg weight, egg mass, daily feed intake and reduced number of damaged eggs. and zero mortality rate due to dietary PRO, PRE and SYN (p ≤ 0.05) respectively. Also, feed conversion was improved by PRO (p ≤ 0.05). In addition, egg quality assessment showed that; eggshell quality was increased by PRO (p ≤ 0.05) and albumen indices (Haugh unit, thick albumen content, and albumen height) were enhanced by PRO, PRE and SYN (p ≤ 0.05). Further analysis showed that PRO, PRE and SYN (p ≤ 0.05), reduced heterophil to lymphocyte ratio, increased antioxidant enzymes and immunoglobulin concentration. Although spleen index was higher for PRO (p ≤ 0.05) group. The significant increase in villi height, villi width, villi height to crypt depth ratio and reduced crypt depth were obvious for PRO, PRE, and SYN (p ≤ 0.05). Furthermore, improved nutrient absorption and retention evidenced by increased digestibility of crude protein and amino acids, were notable for PRO, PRE, and SYN (p ≤ 0.05) group. Collectively, our findings revealed that dietary CB and FOS alone, or combined, enhanced productive performance, egg quality, amino acid digestibility, jejunal morphology, and physiological response in peak-phase laying hens. Our results would provide direction on nutritional strategies for gut enhancers and better physiological response of peak laying hens.

Abstract
Inflammation is the response of the immune system to harmful stimuli such as tissue injury, infection or toxic chemicals, which has the aim of eliminating irritants or pathogenic microorganisms and enhancing tissue repair. Uncontrolled long-lasting acute inflammation can gradually progress to chronic, causing a variety of chronic inflammatory diseases that are usually treated with anti-inflammatory drugs, but most of them are inadequate to control chronic responses and are also associated with adverse side effects. Thus, many efforts are being directed to develop alternative and more selective anti-inflammatory therapies from natural products. One main field of interest is the obtaining of bioactive peptides exhibiting anti-inflammatory activity from sustainable protein sources like edible insects or agroindustry and fishing by-products. This work highlighted the structure-activity relationship of anti-inflammatory peptides. Small peptides with molecular weight under 1 kDa and amino acid chain length between 2 to 20 residues are generally the most active because of the higher probability to be absorbed in the intestine and penetrate into cells when compared with the larger size peptides. The presence of hydrophobic (Val, Ile, Pro) and positively charged (His, Arg, Lys) amino acids is another common occurrence for anti-inflammatory peptides. Interestingly, a high percentage (77%) of these bioactive peptides can be found in alternative sustainable protein sources such as Tenebrio molitor or sunflower, apart from its original protein source. However, not all of these peptides with anti-inflammatory potential in vitro achieve good scores by the in silico bioactivity predictors studied. Therefore, it is essential to implement current bioinformatics tools, in order to complement in vitro experiments with prior prediction of potential bioactive peptides.

Abstract
Food derived bioactive peptides are small protein fragments (2-20 amino acids long) that can exhibit health benefits, beyond basic nutrition. For example, food bioactive peptides can act as physiological modulators with hormone or drug-like activities including anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and the ability to inhibit enzymes related to chronic disease metabolism. Recently, bioactive peptides have been studied for their potential role as nutricosmetics. For example, bioactive peptides can impart skin-aging protection toward extrinsic (i.e., environmental and sun UV-ray damage) and intrinsic (i.e., natural cell or chronological aging) factors. Specifically, bioactive peptides have demonstrated antioxidant and antimicrobial activates toward reactive oxygen species (ROS) and pathogenic bacteria associated with skin diseases, respectively. The anti-inflammatory properties of bioactive peptides using in vivo models has also been reported, where peptides have shown to decreased the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, interferon-γ (INF-γ), and interleukin-17 (IL-17) in mice models. This chapter will discuss the main factors that trigger skin-aging processes, as well as provide examples of in vitro, in vivo, and in silico applications of bioactive peptides in relation to nutricosmetic applications.

Abstract
The effects of ultrasonic treatment on the structure, functional properties and bioactivity of Ovomucin (OVM) were investigated in this study. Ultrasonic treatment could significantly enhance OVM solubility without destroying protein molecules. The secondary structure changes, including β-sheet reduction and random coil increase, indicate more disorder in OVM structure. After ultrasonic treatment, the OVM molecule was unfolded partially, resulting in the exposure of hydrophobic regions. The changes in OVM molecules led to an increase in intrinsic fluorescence and surface hydrophobicity. By detecting the particle size of protein solution, it was confirmed that ultrasonic treatment disassembled the OVM aggregations causing a smaller particle size. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images showed that ultrasonic cavitation significantly reduced the tendency of OVM to form stacked lamellar structure. Those changes in structure resulted in the improvement of foaming, emulsification and antioxidant capacity of OVM. Meanwhile, the detection results of ELISA showed that ultrasonic treatment did not change the biological activity of OVM. These results suggested that the relatively gentle ultrasound treatment could be utilized as a potential approach to modify OVM for property improvement.

Abstract
Egg, a highly nutritious food, contains high-quality proteins, vitamins, and minerals. This food has been reported for its potential pharmacological properties, including antibacterial, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition, immunomodulatory effects, and use in tissue engineering applications. The significance of eggs and their components in disease prevention and treatment is worth more attention. Eggs not only have been known as a "functional food" to combat diseases and facilitate the promotion of optimal health, but also have numerous industrial applications. The current review focuses on different perceptions and non-food applications of eggs, including cosmetics. The versatility of eggs from an industrial perspective makes them a potential candidate for further exploration of several novel components.

Abstract
Ovotransferrin (OTF), an egg protein known as transferrin family protein, possess strong antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. This is because OTF has two iron binding sites, so it has a strong metal chelating ability. The present study aimed to evaluate the improved immune-enhancing activities of OTF hydrolysates produced using bromelain, pancreatin, and papain. The effects of OTF hydrolysates on the production and secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators in RAW 264.7 macrophages were confirmed. The production of nitric oxide (NO) was evaluated using Griess reagent and the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were evaluated using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). And the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α and interleukin [IL]-6) and the phagocytic activity of macrophages were evaluated using an ELISA assay and neutral red uptake assay, respectively. All OTF hydrolysates enhanced NO production by increasing iNOS mRNA expression. Treating RAW 264.7 macrophages with OTF hydrolysates increased the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the phagocytic activity. The production of NO and pro-inflammatory cytokines induced by OTF hydrolysates was inhibited by the addition of specific mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitors. In conclusion, results indicated that all OTF hydrolysates activated RAW 264.7 macrophages by activating MAPK signaling pathway.

Abstract
This work proposes a novel potential source of antiallergens based on bioactive peptides. Cashew-nut protein hydrolysate with antiallergic activity was prepared from cashew nuts through protease treatment. The change in the antiallergic activity of cashew-nut protein hydrolysate during in vitro simulated digestion was investigated. Cashew-nut protein hydrolysates were prepared through treatment using five different enzymes, namely, Alcalase, Protamex, Neutrase, papain, and bromelin. According to the results of molecular weight distribution, more small molecular weight peptides could be obtained by selecting Alcalase protease than other proteases, and the degree of hydrolysis, trichloroacetic acid-soluble peptide yield and hyaluronidase inhibitory rate of the hydrolysate were 17.0 ± 61.52%, 26.28 ± 0.13% and 62.06% ± 5.07%, which were significantly higher than those of other proteases. Therefore, Alcalase is the most suitable protease for the preparation of cashew-nut hydrolysates. Cashew-nut protein hydrolysates prepared with Alcalase under optimum conditions were fractionated through ultrafiltration. Fractions with low molecular weight exhibited the highest hyaluronidase inhibitory rate (90.57%) among all fractions. The inhibition of hyaluronidase activity during digestion showed that cashew-nut protein hydrolysate III (CPH III) has persistent antiallergic activity. Therefore, CPH III could serve as a potential source of functional peptides with health-promoting effects.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a global health challenge, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) triggers a plethora of respiratory disturbances and even multiple organs failure that can be fatal. Nutritional intervention is one of the key components toward to a proper management of COVID-19 patients, especially in those requiring medication, and should thus be considered the first-line treatment. Immuno-modulation and -stimulation are currently being explored in COVID-19 management and are gaining interest by food and pharmaceutical industries. Various dietary combinations, bioactive components, nutrients and fortified foods have been reported to modulate inflammation during disease progression. Dietary combinations of dairy-derived products and eggs are gaining an increasing attention given the huge immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties attributed to some of their chemical constituents. Eggs are complex dietary components containing many essential nutrients and bioactive compounds as well as a high-quality proteins. Similarly, yogurts can replenish beneficial bacteria and contains macronutrients capable of stimulating immunity by enhancing cell immunity, reducing oxidative stress, neutralizing inflammation and regulating the intestinal barriers and gut microbiome. Thus, this review highlights the impact of nutritional intervention on COVID-19 management, focusing on the immunomodulatory and inflammatory effects of immune-enhancing nutrients.

Abstract
In this study, protein was extracted from extruded lupin and submitted to gastroduodenal digests to obtain lupin peptides, which were characterized using ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). After this, IQDKEGIPPDQQR (IQD), the lupine peptide monomer characterized after UPLC-MS/MS, was screened out by macrophage inflammatory cytokine production assay. RNA-sequencing analysis was performed to explore the mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory activity associated with this peptide. The results indicated that lupin peptides effectively inhibited the lipopolysaccharide-induced overproduction of proinflammatory mediators. IQD inhibited the production of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 by 51.20, 38.52, 44.70, and 40.43%, respectively. RNA-sequencing results showed that IQD inhibited the inflammatory response by regulating the gene expression of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and inhibiting downstream inflammatory cytokines. These bioactive peptides may be used to develop new ingredients for anti-inflammatory nutritional supplements.

Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 165:2143-2196.

Abstract
This review aims to cover the uses of the commercially available protease Alcalase in the production of biologically active peptides since 2010. Immobilization of Alcalase has also been reviewed, as immobilization of the enzyme may improve the final reaction design enabling the use of more drastic conditions and the reuse of the biocatalyst. That way, this review presents the production, via Alcalase hydrolysis of different proteins, of peptides with antioxidant, angiotensin I-converting enzyme inhibitory, metal binding, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities (among other bioactivities) and peptides that improve the functional, sensory and nutritional properties of foods. Alcalase has proved to be among the most efficient proteases for this goal, using different protein sources, being especially interesting the use of the protein residues from food industry as feedstock, as this also solves nature pollution problems. Very interestingly, the bioactivities of the protein hydrolysates further improved when Alcalase is used in a combined way with other proteases both in a sequential way or in a simultaneous hydrolysis (something that could be related to the concept of combi-enzymes), as the combination of proteases with different selectivities and specificities enable the production of a larger amount of peptides and of a smaller size.

Abstract
Eggs are widely recognized as a highly nutritious food source that offer specific health benefits for humans. Eggs contain all of the proteins, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and growth factors necessary for embryonic development. In particular, egg white and yolk proteins are considered functional food substances because they possess biological activities such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, metal-chelating, antihypertensive, anticancer, and immunomodulatory activities. Peptides produced via processes such as enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation by microorganisms, and some chemical and physical treatments of egg proteins have been shown to enhance the functional properties and solubility of these peptides. Peptide activity is strongly related to amino acid sequence, composition, and length. At present, cancer remains among the leading causes of mortality worldwide, and therefore research aimed at developing new treatments for cancer immunotherapy is of great interest. The present review focuses primarily on the anticancer and immunomodulatory activities of egg proteins and their peptides and provides some insight into their underlying mechanisms of action. A number of egg proteins and peptides have been reported to induce apoptosis in cancer cells, protect against DNA damage, decrease the invasion ability of cancer cells, and exhibit cytotoxic and antimutagenic activity in various cancer cell lines. Furthermore, egg proteins and peptides can stimulate or suppress pro- or anti-inflammatory cytokines, as well as affect the production of inflammatory mediators in a variety of cell lines. In addition, the composition of eggs and the processes of egg proteins and peptides production will be discussed.

Abstract
In this study, ovalbumin (OVA) hydrolysates were prepared using various
proteolytic enzymes and the anti-inflammatory activities of the hydrolysates
were determined. Also, the potential application of OVA as a functional food
material was discussed. The effect of OVA hydrolysates on the inhibition of
nitric oxide (NO) production was evaluated via the Griess reaction, and their
effects on the expression of inducible NO synthase (inducible nitric oxide
synthase, iNOS) were assessed using the quantitative real-time PCR and Western
blotting. To determine the mechanism by which OVA hydrolysates activate
macrophages, pathways associated with the mitogen-activated protein kinase
(MAPK) signaling were evaluated. When the OVA hydrolysates were added to RAW
264.7 cells without lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, they did not affect
the production of NO. However, both the OVA-Protex 6L hydrolysate (OHPT) and
OVA-trypsin hydrolysate (OHT) inhibited NO production dose-dependently in LPS-
stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Especially, OHT showed a strong NO-inhibitory
activity (62.35% at 2 mg/mL) and suppressed iNOS production and the mRNA
expression for iNOS (p<0.05). Also, OHT treatment decreased the
phosphorylation levels of Jun amino-terminal kinases (JNK) and extracellular
signal-regulated kinases (ERK) in the MAPK signaling pathway. These findings
suggested that OVA hydrolysates could be used as an anti-inflammatory agent that
prevent the overproduction of NO.

Abstract
Five major proteins from egg white were separated using a successive extraction/precipitation protocol. The yield and purity of the separated proteins were measured. The separated proteins were confirmed by MALDI-TOF-MS, and their structures were characterized by CD spectrum. Lysozyme was first separated using FPC 3500 resin and then ovomucin from the lysozyme-free egg white. Ammonium sulfate and citric acid were added to the resulting lysozyme- and ovomucin-free egg white solution to precipitate ovotransferrin. Ovomucoid and ovalbumin were separated from the resulting supernatant using ethanol. The separated proteins were further purified and the optimal conditions for the further purifications were suggested. The purity and yield of lysozyme, ovotransferrin, ovalbumin, and ovomucoid were higher than 90% and 77%, while those of ovomucin were about 72% and 75%, respectively. This study separated five major proteins in egg white successively using resin adsorption, pH adjustment, salt/ethanol precipitation, and ultrafiltration.

Abstract
In recent years, consumers' demand for cosmeceutical products with protective and therapeutic functions derived from natural sources have caused this industry to search for alternative active ingredients. Bioactive peptides have a wide spectrum of bioactivities, which make them ideal candidates for development of these cosmeceutical products. In vitro studies have demonstrated that bioactive peptides (obtained as extracts, hydrolysates, and/or individual peptides) exhibit biological properties including antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities, in addition to their properties of inhibiting aging-related enzymes such as elastase, collagenase, tyrosinase and hyaluronidase. Some studies report multifunctional bioactive peptides that can simultaneously affect, beneficially, multiple physiological pathways in the skin. Moreover, in vivo studies have revealed that topical application or consumption of bioactive peptides possess remarkable skin protection. These properties suggest that bioactive peptides may contribute in the improvement of skin health by providing specific physiological functions, even though the mechanisms underlying the protective effect have not been completely elucidated. This review provides an overview of in vitro, in silico and in vivo properties of bioactive peptides with potential use as functional ingredients in the cosmeceutical field. It also describes the possible mechanisms involved as well as opportunities and challenges associated with their application.

Abstract
Self-assembled and cross-linked hybrid hydrogels for entrapment and delivery of hydrophilic and hydrophobic bioactive compounds were developed based on N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC)- or l-cysteine (CYS)-functionalized chitosan-β-lactoglobulin nanoparticles (NPs). In both the systems, amphiphilic protein β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) was self-assembled by using glutaraldehyde for affinity binding with egg white-derived peptides (EWDP) and curcumin and then coated with NAC- or CYS-functionalized chitosan (CS) by electrostatic interaction. The resulting NPs were characterized in terms of size, polydispersity, and surface charge by dynamic light scattering. Results corroborated pH-sensitive properties of NAC-CS-β-lg NPs and CYS-CS-β-lg NPs with the particle size as small as 118 and 48 nm, respectively. The two kinds of NPs also showed excellent entrapment of EWDP and curcumin with the entrapment efficiency (EE) of EWDP and curcumin ranging from 51 to 89% and 42 to 57% in NAC-CS-β-lg NPs, as well as 50-81% and 41-57% in CYS-CS-β-lg NPs under different pH values. Fourier transform infrared and molecular docking studies provided support for the interaction mechanism of NAC/CYS-CS with β-lg as well as the NPs with EWDP and curcumin. Strikingly, the in vitro release kinetics of EWDP and curcumin exhibited the controlled and sustained release properties up to 58 and 70 h from the NPs, respectively. Note that the permeability of QIGLF (pentapeptide, isolated from EWDP) and curcumin passing through Caco-2 cell monolayers were all improved after the entrapment in the NPs. This work offers promising methods for effective entrapment and oral delivery of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic bioactive compounds.

Abstract
The nutritional excellence of chicken egg is derived from its task as a life-giving medium, supplying the necessary nutrients to the hen's embryo while protecting it from external threats. Additionally, egg proteins possess unique biological activities above and beyond their known functional and nutritional roles. In the last few decades, extensive research has been done to evaluate the various biological activities of egg proteins and protein-derived peptides. Egg proteins and protein-derived peptides have been attributed to diverse biological activities, the most well-known being their antimicrobial properties. However, egg proteins and peptides have been shown to have other biological activities, such as antihypertensive, antioxidant, anticancer, immunomodulatory, and protease inhibitory activity. Egg-derived bioactive proteins have had a relevant scientific impact and exhibit promising applicability as an ingredient for the development of functional foods and nutraceuticals. However, it is critical to understand the effects of these proteins in signaling pathways to delineate their molecular mechanisms of action. Further studies are required to fill the current knowledge gaps. Therefore, the purpose of the chapter is to illustrate the present knowledge of the bioactivity of different egg proteins and their physiological effects.

Abstract
The application of proteomic and peptidomic technologies for food-derived bioactive peptides is an emerging field in food sciences. These technologies include the use of separation tools coupled to a high-resolution spectrometric and bioinformatic tools for prediction, identification, sequencing, and characterization of peptides. To a large extent, one-dimensional separation technologies have been extensively used as a continuous tool under different optimized conditions for the identification and analysis of food peptides. However, most one-dimensional separation technologies are fraught with significant bottlenecks such as insufficient sensitivity and specificity limits for complex samples. To address this limitation, separation systems based on orthogonal, multidimensional principles, which allow for the coupling of more than one analytical separation tool with different operational principles, provide a higher separation power than one-dimensional separation tools. This review describes the structure-informed separation and purification of protein hydrolyzates to obtain peptides with desirable bioactivities. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Application of bioactive peptides in the formulation of functional foods, nutraceuticals, and therapeutic agents have increasingly gained scholarly and industrial attention. The bioactive peptides exist originally in protein sources and are only active after hydrolysis of the parent protein. Currently, several tools can be configured in one-dimensional or multidimensional systems for the separation and purification of protein hydrolyzates. The separations are informed by the structural properties such as the molecular weight, charge, hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity, and the solubility of peptides. This review provides a concise discussion on the commonly used analytical tools, their configurations, advantages and challenges in peptide separation. Emphasis is placed on how the structural properties of peptides assist in the separation and purification processes and the concomitant effect of the separation on peptide bioactivity.

Pulsed electric fields treatment at different pH enhances the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of ovomucin-depleted egg white. Food Chem 2018; 276:164-173. [PMID: 30409580 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2018.10.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2018] [Revised: 08/30/2018] [Accepted: 10/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
This research investigated the effects of pulsed electric fields (PEF) (1.4-1.7 kV/cm, 653-695 kJ/kg) and heating (60 and 80 °C for 10 min) at different pH (4, 5, 7, and 9) on the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of ovomucin-depleted egg white (OdEW) after in vitro gastrointestinal hydrolysis. PEF and heating (80 °C for 10 min) at pH 4 enhanced the antioxidant activity of the whole hydrolysates, chemically determined using DPPH and ORAC assays. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory activity of protein hydrolysates was assessed in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated HT-29 cells using ELISA assay. PEF and heating at pH 4 enhanced the anti-inflammatory activity of the whole hydrolysates dose-dependently. Hydrolysates at 1 mg/ml showed similar inhibition (35.5% and 35.9%) of interleukin-8 production, due to PEF treatment and heating (80 °C for 10 min), respectively. Results indicated that prior PEF treatment can analogously enhance both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of OdEW hydrolysates to heating, with potentially reduced thermal input.

Abstract
The hen's egg is an important protein source of human diet. On average one large egg contains ~6g protein, which contributes to ~11% of daily protein intake. As a high-quality protein, egg proteins are well recognized as excellent sources of bioactive peptides. The objectives of this chapter are to introduce generation, bioactivities, and absorption of egg protein-derived bioactive peptides. Research on egg protein-derived bioactive peptides has been progressed during the past decades. Enzymatic hydrolysis is the major technique to prepare bioactive peptides from egg protein. Quantitative structure-activity relationships-aided in silico prediction is increasingly applied as a promising tool for efficient prediction of novel bioactive peptides. A number of bioactive peptides from egg proteins have been characterized for antioxidant, immunomodulatory, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, anticancer, and antimicrobial activities. Egg protein-derived peptides that can improve bone health have been reported as well. However, molecular mechanisms of many peptides are not fully understood. The stability and absorption routes, bioavailability, safety, and production of bioactive peptides await further investigation.
