Sustainable extraction of proteins from lime peels using ultrasound, deep eutectic solvents, and pressurized liquids, as a source of bioactive peptides. Food Chem 2024; 458:140139. [PMID: 38943952 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.140139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this work was to develop, for the first time, sustainable strategies, based on the use of Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction, Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents, and Pressurized Liquid Extraction, to extract proteins from lime (Citrus x latifolia) peels and to evaluate their potential to release bioactive peptides. PLE showed the largest extraction of proteins (66-69%), which were hydrolysed using three different enzymes (Alcalase 2.4 L FG, Alcalase®PURE 2.4 L, and Thermolysin). The in vitro antioxidant and antihypertensive activities of released peptides were evaluated. Although all hydrolysates showed antioxidant and antihypertensive activity, the hydrolysate obtained with Thermolysin showed the most significant values. Since the Total Phenolic Content in all hydrolysates was low, peptides were likely the main contributors to these bioactivities. Hydrolysates were analyzed by UHPLC-QTOF-MS and a total of 98 different peptides were identified. Most of these peptides were rich in amino acids associated with antioxidant activity.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides (BAPs) represent a unique class of peptides known for their extensive physiological functions and their role in enhancing human health. In recent decades, owing to their notable biological attributes such as antioxidant, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities, BAPs have received considerable attention. Simulated gastrointestinal digestion (SGD) is a technique designed to mimic physiological conditions by adjusting factors such as digestive enzymes and their concentrations, pH levels, digestion duration, and salt content. Initially established for analyzing the gastrointestinal processing of foods or their constituents, SGD has recently become a preferred method for generating BAPs. The BAPs produced via SGD often exhibit superior biological activity and stability compared with those of BAPs prepared via other methods. This review offers a comprehensive examination of the recent advancements in BAP production from foods via SGD, addressing the challenges of the method and outlining prospective directions for further investigation.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia (HU) is a metabolic disorder caused by the overproduction or underexcretion of uric acid (UA) in the human body. Several approved drugs for the treatment of HU are available in the market; however, all these allopathic drugs exhibit multiple side effects. Therefore, the development of safe and effective anti-HU drugs is an urgent need. Natural compounds derived from foods and plants have the potential to decrease UA levels. Recently, food-derived bioactive peptides (FBPs) have gained attention as a functional ingredient owing to their biological activities. In the current review, we aim to explore the urate-lowering potential and the underlying mechanisms of FBPs. We found that FBPs mitigate HU by reducing blood UA levels through inhibiting key enzymes such as xanthine oxidase, increasing renal UA excretion, inhibiting renal UA reabsorption, increasing anti-oxidant activities, regulating inflammatory mediators, and addressing gut microbiota dysbiosis. In conclusion, FBPs exhibit strong potential to ameliorate HU.

High pressure-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis potentiates the production of quinoa protein hydrolysates with antioxidant and ACE-inhibitory activities. Food Chem 2024; 447:138887. [PMID: 38492299 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138887] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
The impact of different pressure levels in the HHP-assisted hydrolysis by Alcalase of quinoa proteins on the catalytic efficiency, peptide release, phenolic compounds content, and biological activities was investigated. The protein profile (SDS-PAGE) showed a more extensive peptide breakdown for the HHP-assisted proteolysis at 300-400 MPa, which was confirmed by the higher extent of hydrolysis and peptide concentration. Quinoa protein hydrolysates (QPH) produced at 200 and 300 MPa exhibited higher total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities (methanol-acetone and aqueous extracts) when compared to the non-hydrolyzed (QPI) and non-pressurized hydrolyzed samples. Kaempferol dirhamnosyl-galactopyranoside was the prevalent phenolic compound in those samples, increasing total flavonoids by 1.8-fold over QPI. The QPH produced at 300 MPa inhibited ACE more effectively, exhibiting the greatest anti-hypertensive potential, along with the presence of several ACE-inhibitory peptides. The peptide sequences GSHWPFGGK, FSIAWPR, and PWLNFK presented the highest Peptide Ranker scores and were predicted to have ACE inhibitory, DPP-IV inhibitory, and antioxidant activities. Mild pressure levels were effective in producing QPH with enhanced functionality due to the effects of bioactive soluble phenolics and low molecular weight peptides.

Abstract
Peptidomics strategies with high throughput, sensitivity, and reproducibility are key tools for comprehensively analyzing peptide composition and potential functional activities in foods. Nevertheless, complex signal interference, limited ionization efficiency, and low abundance have impeded food-derived peptides' progress in food detection and analysis. As a result, novel functional materials have been born at the right moment that could eliminate interference and perform efficient enrichment. Of note, few studies have focused on developing peptide enrichment materials for food sample analysis. This work summarizes the development of endogenous peptide, phosphopeptide, and glycopeptide enrichment utilizing materials that have been employed extensively recently: organic framework materials, carbon-based nanomaterials, bio-based materials, magnetic materials, and molecularly imprinted polymers. It focuses on the limitations, potential solutions, and future prospects for application in food peptidomics of various advanced functional materials. The size-exclusion effect of adjustable aperture and the modification of magnetic material enhanced the sensitivity and selectivity of endogenous peptide enrichment and aided in streamlining the enrichment process and cutting down on enrichment time. Not only that, the immobilization of metal ions such as Ti4+ and Nb5+ enhanced the capture of phosphopeptides, and the introduction of hydrophilic groups such as arginine, L-cysteine, and glutathione into bio-based materials effectively optimized the hydrophilic enrichment of glycopeptides. Although a portion of the carefully constructed functional materials currently only exhibit promising applications in the field of peptide enrichment for analytical chemistry, there is reason to believe that they will further advance the field of food peptidomics through improved pre-treatment steps.

Abstract
Frog skin, a by-product of Quasipaa Spinosa farming, is rich in protein and potentially a valuable raw material for obtaining antioxidant peptides. This study used papain combined with acid protease to digest frog skin in a two-step enzymatic hydrolysis method. Based on a single factor and response surface experiments, experimental conditions were optimized, and the degree of hydrolysis was 30 %. A frog skin hydrolysate (QSPH-Ⅰ-3) was obtained following ultrafiltration and gel filtration chromatography. IC50 for DPPH, ABTS, and hydroxyl radical scavenging capacities were 1.68 ± 0.05, 1.20 ± 0.14 and 1.55 ± 0.11 mg/mL, respectively. Peptide sequences (17) were analyzed and, through molecular docking, peptides with low binding energies for KEAP1 were identified, which might affect the NRF2-KEAP1 pathway. These findings suggest protein hydrolysates and antioxidant peptide derivatives might be used in functional foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Olive and sunflower seeds are by-products generated in large amounts by the plant oil industry. The technological and biological properties of plant-based substrates, especially protein hydrolysates, have increased their use as functional ingredients for food matrices. The present study evaluates the physical and oxidative stabilities of 50 g kg-1 fish oil-in-water emulsions where protein hydrolysates from olive and sunflower seeds were incorporated at 20 g kg-1 protein as natural emulsifiers. The goal was to investigate the effect of protein source (i.e. olive and sunflower seeds), enzyme (i.e. subtilisin and trypsin) and degree of hydrolysis (5%, 8% and 11%) on the ability of the hydrolysate to stabilize the emulsion and retard lipid oxidation over a 7-day storage period. RESULTS The plant protein hydrolysates displayed different emulsifying and antioxidant capacities when incorporated into the fish oil-in-water emulsions. The hydrolysates with degrees of hydrolysis (DH) of 5%, especially those from sunflower seed meal, provided higher physical stability, regardless of the enzymatic treatment. For example, the average D [2, 3] values for the emulsions containing sunflower subtilisin hydrolysates at DH 5% only slightly increased from 1.21 ± 0.02 μm (day 0) to 2.01 ± 0.04 μm (day 7). Moreover, the emulsions stabilized with sunflower or olive seed hydrolysates at DH 5% were stable against lipid oxidation throughout the storage experiment, with no significant variation in the oxidation indices between days 0 and 4. CONCLUSION The results of the present study support the use of sunflower seed hydrolysates at DH 5% as natural emulsifiers for fish oil-in-water emulsions, providing both physical and chemical stability against lipid oxidation. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation serves as our body's immune response to combat infections, pathogens, viruses, and external stimuli. Inflammation can be classified into two types: acute inflammation and chronic inflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) are used to treat both acute and chronic inflammatory disorders. However, these treatments have various side effects such as reduced healing efficiency, peptic ulcers, gastrointestinal toxicities, etc. METHOD: This review assesses the potential of anti-inflammatory peptides (AIPs) derived from various natural sources, such as algae, fungi, plants, animals, and marine organisms. Focusing on peptides rich in cysteines and methionine, sulphur-containing amino acids known for their role in suppression of inflammation. RESULT Due to their varied biological activity, ability to penetrate cells, and low cytotoxicity, bioactive peptides have garnered interest as possible therapeutic agents. The utilisation of AIPs has shown great potential in the treatment of disorders associated with inflammation. AIPs can be obtained from diverse natural sources such as algae, fungi, plants, and animals. Cysteine and methionine are sulphur-containing amino acids that aid in the elimination of free radicals, hence assisting in the treatment of inflammatory diseases. CONCLUSION This review specifically examines several sources of AIPs including peptides that contain numerous cysteines and methionine. In addition, the biological characteristics of these amino acids and advancements in peptide delivery are also discussed.

Abstract
Innovating food additives stands as a cornerstone for the sustainable evolution of future food systems. Peptides derived from food proteins exhibit a rich array of physicochemical and biological attributes crucial for preserving the appearance, flavor, texture, and nutritional integrity of foods. Leveraging these peptides as raw materials holds great promise for the development of novel food additives. While numerous studies underscore the potential of peptides as food additives, existing reviews predominantly focus on their biotic applications, leaving a notable gap in the discourse around their abiotic functionalities, such as their physicochemical properties. Addressing this gap, this review offers a comprehensive survey of peptide-derived food additives in food systems, accentuating the application of peptides' abiotic properties. It furnishes a thorough exploration of the underlying mechanisms and diverse applications of peptide-derived food additives, while also delineating the challenges encountered and prospects for future applications. This well-time review will set the stage for a deeper understanding of peptide-derived food additives.

Food Chem 2024; 443:138515. [PMID: 38277934 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.138515] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 01/28/2024]
Abstract
In light of the growing demand for alternative protein sources, laboratory-grown meat has been proposed as a potential solution to the challenges posed by conventional meat production. Cultured meat does not require animal slaughter and uses sustainable production methods, contributing to animal welfare, human health, and environmental sustainability. However, some challenges still need to be addressed in cultured meat production, such as the use of fetal bovine serum for medium supplementation. This ingredient has limited availability, increases production costs, and raises ethical concerns. This review explores the potential of non-animal protein hydrolysates derived from agro-industrial wastes as substitutes for critical components of fetal bovine serum in cultured meat production. Despite the lack of standardization of hydrolysate composition, the potential benefits of this alternative protein source may outweigh its disadvantages. Future research holds promise for increasing the accessibility of cultured meat.

[PMID: 38422590 DOI: 10.1016/j.meatsci.2024.109472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess whether ultrasound treatment (sonification time: 5, 15, and 30 min; constants: ∼40 kHz, ∼2.5 W cm2) can be applied prior to hydrolysis to enhance the anti-radical and angiotensin converting enzyme inhibiting (anti-ACE) effect of the hydrolysates from fermented pork loins. Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed using pepsin, followed by pancreatin. The influence of meat matrix on the course of hydrolysis, shaped using a lactic acid bacteria (LAB)-based starter culture, was also analyzed. It was found that proteases caused a systematic increase in the content of peptides, while pancreatin limited the peptide content in the protein hydrolysate from the loins subjected to spontaneous fermentation. Moreover, for these tests, sonication time had a negligible effect on the peptides content of the hydrolysates. On the other hand, for the sample of LAB-fermented products, both sonication time and stage of hydrolysis promoted the biological activity of the hydrolysates. Samples from the LAB-fermented meat had more peptides at the stage of digestion with pepsin and pancreatin, exhibiting much faster antiradical and anti-ACE activity compared to the control sample. The obtained results suggest that the use of LAB promotes the release of antiradical peptides during the two-step enzymatic hydrolysis, the duration of which can be shortened to achieve satisfactory biofunctionalities. Additional application of sonication pretreatment allows controlling the course of the hydrolysis, as the pro-health, biological effect of some protein-derived sequences is associated with the content of peptides.

Abstract
Whey is a byproduct of dairy industries, the aqueous portion which separates from cheese during the coagulation of milk. It represents approximately 85-95% of milk's volume and retains much of its nutrients, including functional proteins and peptides, lipids, lactose, minerals, and vitamins. Due to its composition, mainly proteins and lactose, it can be considered a raw material for value-added products. Whey-derived products are often used to supplement food, as they have shown several physiological effects on the body. Whey protein hydrolysates are reported to have different activities, including antihypertensive, antioxidant, antithrombotic, opioid, antimicrobial, cytomodulatory, and immuno-modulatory. On the other hand, galactooligosaccharides obtained from lactose can be used as prebiotic for beneficial microorganisms for the human gastrointestinal tract. All these compounds can be obtained through physicochemical, microbial, or enzymatic treatments. Particularly, enzymatic processes have the advantage of being highly selective, more stable than chemical transformations, and less polluting, making that the global enzyme market grow at accelerated rates. The sources and different products associated with the most used enzymes are particularly highlighted in this review. Moreover, we discuss metagenomics as a tool to identify novel proteolytic enzymes, from both cultivable and uncultivable microorganisms, which are expected to have new interesting activities. Finally enzymes for the transformation of whey sugar are reviewed. In this sense, carbozymes with ß-galactosidase activity are capable of lactose hydrolysis, to obtain free monomers, and transgalactosylation for prebiotics production. KEY POINTS: • Whey can be used to obtain value-added products efficiently through enzymatic treatments • Proteases transform whey proteins into biopeptides with physiological activities • Lactose can be transformed into prebiotic compounds using ß-galactosidases.

Abstract
Alcohol intake has become one of the leading risks to human health and wellness, among which acute and/or chronic alcohol-induced liver injury is a leading threaten, with few therapeutic options other than abstinence. In recent years, studies suggested that certain bioactive peptides from food sources could represent natural and safe alternatives for the prevention of alcoholic liver injury. Hence, this chapter focus on the advanced research on bioactive peptides exerting hepatoprotective activity against alcoholic liver injury. The main sources of protein, strategies for the preparation of hepatoprotective hydrolysates and peptides, underlying mechanisms of peptides on hepatoprotection, and possible structure-activity relationship between peptides and hepatoprotective activity were summarized and discussed, aiming to give a systematic insight into the research progress of hepatoprotective peptides. However, more efforts would be needed to give a clearer insight into the underlying mechanisms and structure-activity relationship before using hepatoprotective peptides as functional food ingredients or dietary supplements.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore antioxidant peptides derived from sturgeon (Acipenser schrenckii) ovaries that exhibit antiosteoporotic effects in oxidative-induced MC3T3-E1 cells. The F3-15 component obtained from sturgeon ovarian protein hydrolysates (SOPHs) via gel filtration and RP-HPLC significantly increased the cell survival rate (from 49.38 ± 2.88 to 76.26 ± 2.09%). Two putative antioxidant-acting peptides, FDWDRL (FL6) and FEGPPFKF (FF8), were screened from the F3-15 faction via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and through prediction by computer simulations. Molecular docking results indicated that the possible antioxidant mechanisms of FL6 and FF8 involved blocking the active site of human myeloperoxidase (hMPO). The in vitro tests showed that FL6 and FF8 were equally adept at reducing intracellular ROS levels, increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes, and protecting cells from oxidative injuries by inhibiting the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and activating the phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT)/glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) signaling pathway. Moreover, both peptides could increase differentiation and mineralization abilities in oxidatively damaged MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, FF8 exhibited high resistance to pepsin and trypsin, showcasing potential for practical applications.

Abstract
The global demand for sustainable and nutritious food sources has catalyzed interest in legumes, known for their rich repertoire of health-promoting compounds. This review delves into the diverse array of bioactive peptides, protein subunits, isoflavones, antinutritional factors, and saponins found in the primary legume protein sources-soybeans, peas, chickpeas, and mung beans. The current state of research on these compounds is critically evaluated, with an emphasis on the potential health benefits, ranging from antioxidant and anticancer properties to the management of chronic diseases such as diabetes and hypertension. The extensively studied soybean is highlighted and the relatively unexplored potential of other legumes is also included, pointing to a significant, underutilized resource for developing health-enhancing foods. The review advocates for future interdisciplinary research to further unravel the mechanisms of action of these bioactive compounds and to explore their synergistic effects. The ultimate goal is to leverage the full spectrum of benefits offered by legumes, not only to advance human health but also to contribute to the sustainability of food systems. By providing a comprehensive overview of the nutraceutical potential of legumes, this manuscript sets a foundation for future investigations aimed at optimizing the use of legumes in the global pursuit of health and nutritional security.

Abstract
PepXLcMY-3, an X-prolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase derived from Lactobacillus lactis MY-3, was screened and recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. The enzyme could exhibit about 40% activity within the pH range of 6.0-10. To further improve the pH robustness, site E396 located in the active pocket was discovered through alanine scanning. The mutant E396I displayed both developed activity and kcat/Km. The optimal pH of E396I shifted from 6.0 to 10 compared to WT, with the relative activity within the pH range of 6.0-10 significantly increased. The site K648 was then proposed by semirational design. The activity of mutant E396I/K648D reached 4.03 U/mg. The optimal pH was restored to 6.0, and the pH stability was further improved. E396I/K648D could totally hydrolyze β-casomorphin 7 within 30 min. The hydrolysate showed 64.5% inhibition on angiotensin I converting enzyme, which was more efficient than those produced by E396I and WT, 23.2 and 44.7%, respectively.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides have been considered potential components for the future functional foods and nutraceuticals generation. The enzymatic method of hydrolysis has several advantages compared to those of chemical hydrolysis and fermentation. Despite this fact, the high cost of natural and commercial proteases limits the commercialization of hydrolysates in the food and pharmacological industries. For this reason, more efficient and economically interesting techniques, such as the immobilisation of the enzyme, are gaining attention. In the present study, a new protein hydrolysate from Lupinus angustifolius was generated by enzymatic hydrolysis through the immobilisation of the enzyme alcalase® (imLPH). After the chemical and nutritional characterization of the imLPH, an in vivo study was carried out in order to evaluate the effect of 12 weeks treatment with imLPH on the plasmatic lipid profile and antioxidant status in western-diet-fed apolipoprotein E knockout mice. The immobilisation of alcalase® generated an imLPH with a degree of hydrolysis of 29.71 ± 2.11%. The imLPH was mainly composed of protein (82.50 ± 0.88%) with a high content of glycine/glutamine, arginine, and aspartic acid/asparagine. The imLPH-treatment reduced the amount of abdominal white adipose tissue, total plasma cholesterol, LDL-C, and triglycerides, as well as the cardiovascular risk indexes (CRI) -I, CRI-II, and atherogenic index of plasma. The imLPH-treated mice also showed an increase in the plasma antioxidant capacity. For the first time, this study demonstrates the beneficial in vivo effect of a lupin protein hydrolysate obtained with the alcalase® immobilised and points out this approach as a possible cost-effective solution at the expensive generation of the hydrolysate through the traditional batch conditions with soluble enzymes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Okara is a by-product from the soybean industry and an abundant resource of insoluble soybean fiber (ISF). ISF with various properties could be obtained by different extraction methods. It is an attractive option to utilize okara by taking advantage of ISF as an emulsifier or stabilizer. RESULTS Compared with the untreated ISF (ISFUT ), superfine grinding reduced the particle size and viscosity of ISF (ISFSG ). Steam explosion increased the water solubility from 17.5% to 51.7% but decreased the water holding capacity and swelling capacity of ISF (ISFSE ) from 15.0 and 14.0 g/g to 4.2 and 3.3 g/g, respectively. Emulsions prepared by ISFUT and ISFSG before or after enzymatic hydrolysis presented large oil droplets and were unstable. Although emulsions prepared by ISFSE after enzymatic hydrolysis (ISFSE-E ) showed flocculation, the volume-weighted average diameter (19.7 μm) were the smallest while the viscosity and viscoelastic modulus were the highest, and exhibited excellent physical stability during storage. CONCLUSION ISF obtained by physical and hydrolysis treatment displayed diverging physicochemical properties while ISF prepared by steam explosion-enzymatic hydrolysis presented the best potential to stabilize emulsions. The present study could provide novel information about the utilization of okara by the application of ISF as an emulsifier or stabilizer. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Hypertension, a major health concern linked to heart disease and premature mortality, has prompted a search for alternative treatments due to side effects of existing medications. Sustainable harvesting of low-trophic marine organisms not only enhances food security but also provides a variety of bioactive molecules, including peptides. Despite comprising only a fraction of active natural compounds, peptides are ideal for drug development due to their size, stability, and resistance to degradation. Our review evaluates the anti-hypertensive properties of peptides and proteins derived from selected marine invertebrate phyla, examining the various methodologies used and their application in pharmaceuticals, supplements, and functional food. A considerable body of research exists on the anti-hypertensive effects of certain marine invertebrates, yet many species remain unexamined. The array of assessments methods, particularly for ACE inhibition, complicates the comparison of results. The dominance of in vitro and animal in vivo studies indicates a need for more clinical research in order to transition peptides into pharmaceuticals. Our findings lay the groundwork for further exploration of these promising marine invertebrates, emphasizing the need to balance scientific discovery and marine conservation for sustainable resource use.

Food peptidomic analysis of bovine milk fermented by Lacticaseibacillus casei LBC 237: In silico prediction of bioactive peptides and anticancer potential. Food Res Int 2024; 180:114060. [PMID: 38395580 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
Bioactive peptides, which exhibited diverse biological activities such as anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, antiviral, and quorum sensing properties, were considered promising alternative therapeutic agents. Sourced from various raw materials, particularly foods, these peptides garnered significant interest. In this context, the study focused on exploring bioactive peptides derived from bovine whole milk fermentation by Lacticaseibacillus casei LBC 237. Comprehensive peptidomic analysis and in silico predictions, with a specific emphasis on anti-cancer properties, were conducted. The study categorized peptides into BP-LBC, originating from the metabolism of L. casei LBC 237 and not matching any sequence in the Bos taurus database, and BP-MILK, matching a sequence in the Bos taurus database. Among the 143 identified peptides with potential biological activity, 33.56% were attributed to BP-LBC, while 66.43% originated from BP-MILK, demonstrating the important contribution of proteins in bovine milk in the generation of bioactive peptides. Hydrophobic peptides, enriched in Leucine, Lysine, and Proline, dominated both fractions, significantly influencing their functional properties. Pearson correlation analysis revealed inverse relationships between bioactive peptides, molecular weight, and anti-tumor activity in BP-MILK. The DGKVWEESLK peptide exhibited in silico activity against 10 different cancer cell lines. Studying the bioactive properties of peptides from familiar sources enhances the connection between food science and human health. In addition, in silico studies have been crucial in deepening our understanding of the bioactive potential of these peptides and their mode of action.

Abstract
Milk is renowned for its nutritional richness but also serves as a remarkable reservoir of bioactive compounds, particularly milk proteins and their derived peptides. Recent studies have showcased several robust antiviral activities of these proteins, evidencing promising potential within zoonotic viral diseases. While several publications focus on milk's bioactivities, antiviral peptides remain largely neglected in reviews. This knowledge is critical for identifying novel research directions and analyzing potential nutraceuticals within the One Health context. Our review aims to gather the existing scientific information on milk-derived antiviral proteins and peptides against several zoonotic viral diseases, and their possible mechanisms. Overall, in-depth research has increasingly revealed them as a promising and novel strategy against viruses, principally for those constituting a plausible pandemic threat. The underlying mechanisms of the bioactivity of milk's proteins include inhibiting viral entry and attachment to the host cells, blocking replication, or even viral inactivation via peptide-membrane interactions. Their marked versatility and effectiveness stand out compared to other antiviral peptides and can support future research and development in the post-COVID-19 era. Overall, our review helps to emphasize the importance of potentially effective milk-derived peptides, and their significance for veterinary and human medicines, along with the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and dairy industry.

Abstract
Membrane processes, such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration, and nanofiltration, are increasingly used for various applications in both upstream and downstream processing. Membrane-based processes play a critical role in the field of separation/purification of biotechnological products, including protein production/purification. The possibility of using membranes to separate peptides from a chicken byproduct hydrolysate and the effect of the performed downstream processing on the DPP-IV dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory activity of mechanical deboning chicken residue (MDCR) has been investigated. The chicken byproduct hydrolysate was prepared by enzymatic hydrolysis followed by microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF), and reverse osmosis (RO) separation. Comparing all separation treatments, hydrolysates processed only by MF and UF show the best DPP-IV inhibition (59.5-60.0% at 1 mg/mL and 34.2-40.7% at 0.5 mg/mL). These samples show dose-responsive behavior. Bioactivity was correlated with molecular weight distribution profiles and average molecular weights. The nanofiltration process notably decrease the inhibitory activity, and these permeates show low DPP-IV inhibition (9.5-21.8% at 1 mg/mL and 3.6-12.1% at 0.5 mg/mL). The size-exclusion chromatography-organic carbon detection-organic nitrogen detection (LC-OCD-OND) analysis confirms that NF and RO would retain the bioactive peptides in the concentrate in comparison to MF and UF. Bioactivity was correlated with molecular weight distribution profiles and average molecular weights. Permeates after ultrafiltration show an IC50 value of 0.75 mg/mL, comparable to other potent DPP-IV inhibitors derived from various food sources, and significantly more potent compared to the microfiltration sample, which shows an IC50 value of 1.04 mg/mL. The average molecular weight of the permeates calculated from the SEC chromatograms was 883 g/mol for UF and 1437 g/mol for MF. Of the four membranes studied, the UF membrane shows the best separation properties with respect to maximizing the yield and up-concentration of the bioactive peptides. Overall, UF was demonstrated to be a feasible technology for the removal of the undesired high-molecular-weight substances and up-concentration of small-molecular-weight bioactive peptides from chicken byproduct hydrolysate. These peptides might exhibit biological activity and could offer several health benefits. There is a high potential for the use of bioactive peptides, and more research in this field can lead to promising results that have significant effects in the food and medical industries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wheat protein intake leads to improved appetite control. However, the active components causing appetite in wheat have not been fully clarified. Gut cholecystokinin (CCK) plays a vital role in appetite control. This study aimed to investigate the ability of wheat protein digest (WPD) to stimulate CCK secretion and clarify the active components and target of action. RESULTS WPD was prepared by a simulated gastrointestinal digestion model. WPD treatment with a concentration of 5 mg mL-1 significantly stimulated CCK secretion in enteroendocrine STC-1 cells (P < 0.05). Furthermore, oral gavage with WPD in mice significantly increased plasma CCK level at 60 min (P < 0.01). Preparative C18 column separation was used to isolate peptide fractions associated with CCK secretion and peptide sequences were identified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. A new CCK-releasing peptide, RYIVPL, that potently stimulated CCK secretion was successfully identified. After pretreatment with a specific calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) antagonist, NPS 2143, CCK secretion induced by WPD or RYIVPL was greatly suppressed, suggesting that CaSR was involved in WPD- or RYIVPL-induced CCK secretion. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that WPD has an ability to stimulate CCK secretion in vitro and in vivo, and determined that peptide RYIVPL in WPD could stimulate CCK secretion through CaSR. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Enzymatic Preparation and Processing Properties of DPP-IV Inhibitory Peptides Derived from Wheat Gluten: Effects of Pretreatment Methods and Protease Types. Foods 2024; 13:216. [PMID: 38254517 PMCID: PMC10814021 DOI: 10.3390/foods13020216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2023] [Revised: 12/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The choice of appropriate proteases and pretreatment methods significantly influences the preparation of bioactive peptides. This study aimed to investigate the effects of different pretreatment methods on the hydrolytic performance of diverse proteases during the production of dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory peptides derived from wheat and their foaming and emulsion properties. Dry heating, aqueous heating, and ultrasound treatment were employed as pretreatments for the protein prior to the enzymatic hydrolysis of wheat gluten. FTIR analysis results indicated that all pretreatment methods altered the secondary structure of the protein; however, the effects of dry heating treatment on the secondary structure content were opposite to those of aqueous heating and ultrasound treatment. Nevertheless, all three methods enhanced the protein solubility and surface hydrophobicity. By using pretreated proteins as substrates, five different types of proteases were employed for DPP-IV inhibitory peptide production. The analysis of the DPP-IV inhibitory activity, degree of hydrolysis, and TCA-soluble peptide content revealed that the specific pretreatments had a promoting or inhibiting effect on DPP-IV inhibitory peptide production depending on the protease used. Furthermore, the pretreatment method and the selected type of protease collectively influenced the foaming and emulsifying properties of the prepared peptides.

Abstract
Dairy-derived angiotensin-I-converting enzyme inhibitory peptides (ANGICon-EIPs) have been regarded as a relatively safe supplementary diet-therapy strategy for individuals with hypertension, and short-chain peptides may have more relevant antihypertensive benefits due to their direct intestinal absorption. Our previous explorations have confirmed that endogenous goat milk short-chain peptides are also an essential source of ANGICon-EIPs. Nonetheless, there are limited explorations on endogenous ANGICon-EIPs owing to the limitations of the extraction and enrichment of endogenous peptides, currently. This review outlined ameliorated pre-treatment strategies, data acquisition methods, and tools for the prediction of peptide structure and function, aiming to provide creative ideas for discovering novel ANGICon-EIPs. Currently, deep learning-based peptide structure and function prediction algorithms have achieved significant advancements. The convolutional neural network (CNN) and peptide sequence-based multi-label deep learning approach for determining the multi-functionalities of bioactive peptides (MLBP) can predict multiple peptide functions with absolute true value and accuracy of 0.699 and 0.708, respectively. Utilizing peptide sequence input, torsion angles, and inter-residue distance to train neural networks, APPTEST predicted the average backbone root mean square deviation (RMSD) value of peptide (5-40 aa) structures as low as 1.96 Å. Overall, with the exploration of more neural network architectures, deep learning could be considered a critical research tool to reduce the cost and improve the efficiency of identifying novel endogenous ANGICon-EIPs.

Li Z, Zhang S, Meng W, Zhang J, Zhang D. Screening and Activity Analysis of α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Peptides Derived from Coix Seed Prolamins Using Bioinformatics and Molecular Docking. Foods 2023; 12:3970. [PMID: 37959088 PMCID: PMC10649794 DOI: 10.3390/foods12213970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2023] [Revised: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydrolysates of coix seed prolamins (CHPs) have an excellent hypoglycemic effect and can effectively inhibit α-glucosidase, which is the therapeutic target enzyme for type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, its hypoglycemic components and molecular mechanisms remain unclear, and its stability in food processing needs to be explored. In this study, four potential α-glucosidase inhibitory peptides (LFPSNPLA, FPCNPLV, HLPFNPQ, LLPFYPN) were identified and screened from CHPs using LC-MS/MS and virtual screening techniques. The results of molecular docking showed that the four peptides mainly inhibited α-glucosidase activity through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions, with Pro and Leu in the peptides playing important roles. In addition, CHPs can maintain good activity under high temperatures (40~100 °C) and weakly acidic or weakly alkaline conditions (pH 6.0~8.0). The addition of glucose (at 100 °C) and NaCl increased the inhibitory activity of α-glucosidase in CHPs. The addition of metal ions significantly decreased the inhibitory activity of α-glucosidase by CHPs, and their effects varied in magnitude with Cu2+ having the largest effect followed by Zn2+, Fe3+, K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+. These results further highlight the potential of CHPs as a foodborne hypoglycemic ingredient, providing a theoretical basis for the application of CHPs in the healthy food industry.

Abstract
Plant proteins are high-quality dietary components of food products. With the growing interest in sustainable and healthy food alternatives, plant proteins have gained significant attention as viable substitutes for animal-based proteins. Understanding the diversity of protein sources derived from plants, novel processing technology, and multiple applications is crucial for developing nutritious and sustainable plant protein-based products. This Review summarizes the natural sources of traditional and emerging plant proteins. The classifications, processing technologies, and applications of plant protein-based products in the food industry are explicitly elucidated. Moreover, the advantages and disadvantages of plant protein-based food products are revealed. Strategies such as protein fortification and complementation to overcome these shortcomings are critically discussed. We also demonstrate several issues that need to be addressed in future development.

Abstract
CRISPR/Cas9 system-mediated multi-copy expression of an alkaline serine protease (AoproS8) from Aspergillus oryzae was successfully built in Aspergillus niger. Furthermore, AoproS8 was continuously knocked in the glaA, amyA, and aamy gene loci in A. niger to construct multi-copy expression strains. The yield of the AoproS8 3.0 strain was 2.1 times higher than that of the AoproS8 1.0 strain. Then, a high protease activity of 11,023.2 U/mL with a protein concentration of 10.8 mg/mL was obtained through fed-batch fermentation in a 5 L fermenter. This is the first report on the high-level expression of alkaline serine proteases in A. niger. AoproS8 showed optimal activity at pH 9.0 and 40 °C. It was used for the production of xanthine oxidase (XOD)-inhibitory peptides from eight food processing protein by-products. Among them, the duck hemoglobin hydrolysates showed the highest XOD-inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 2.39 mg/mL. Thus, our work provides a useful way for efficient expression of proteases in A. niger and high-value utilization of protein by-products.

Abstract
Facing extreme pressure from an increasing population and climate degeneration, it is important to explore a green, safe and environmentally sustainable food source, especially for protein-enriched diets. Plant proteins have gained much attention in recent years, ascribing to their high nutritional value and environmental friendliness. In this review, we summarized recent advances in walnut protein with respect to its geographical distribution, structural and physiochemical properties and functional attributes. As a worldwide cultivated and largely consumptive crop, allergies and some physicochemical limitations have also led to a few concerns about walnut protein. Through comprehensive analysis and discussion, some strategies may be useful for future research, extraction and processing of walnut protein.

Abstract
The self-assembled structures of coix seeds affected the enzymatic efficiency and doesn't facilitate the release of more active peptides. The influence of heating combined with ultrasound pretreatment (HT + US) on the structure, enzymatic properties and hydrolysates (CHPs) of coix seed prolamin was investigated. Results showed that the structural of coix seed prolamins has changed after HT + US, including increased surface hydrophobicity, reduced α-helix and random coil content, and a decrease in particle size. So that, leads to changes in thermodynamic parameters such as an increase in the reaction rate constant and a decrease in activation energy, enthalpy and enthalpy. The fractions of <1000 Da, degree of hydrolysis and α-glucosidase inhibitory were increased in the HT + US group compared to single pretreatment by 0.68%-17.34%, 12.69%-34.43% and 30.00%-53.46%. The peptide content and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of CHPs could be maintained at 72.21 % and 57.97 % of the initial raw materials after in vitro digestion. Thus, the findings indicate that HT + US provides a feasible and efficient approach to can effectively enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency and hypoglycaemic efficacy of CHPs.

Abstract
A large amount of poultry blood is annually generated, and currently underutilized or largely disposed of as waste, resulting in environmental pollution and waste of protein resources. As one of the main by-products during the poultry slaughter process, the produced poultry blood can serve as a promising food ingredient due to its excellent functional properties and abundant source of essential amino acids, bioactive peptides and functional components. This work provides a comprehensive summary of recent research progress in the composition, functional and bioactive properties, as well as the functional components of poultry blood. Furthermore, the main preparation methods of poultry blood-derived peptides and their bioactivities were reviewed. In addition, their potential applications in the food industry were discussed. Overall, poultry blood is characterized by excellent functionalities, including solubility, gelation, foaming, and emulsifying properties. The major preparation methods for poultry blood-derived peptides include enzymatic hydrolysis, ultrasound-assisted enzymatic methods, macroporous adsorbent resins, and subcritical water hydrolysis. Poultry blood-derived peptides exhibit diverse bioactivities. Their metallic off-flavors and bitterness can be improved by exopeptidase treatment, Maillard reaction, and plastein reaction. In addition, poultry blood is also abundant in functional components such as hemoglobin, superoxide dismutase, immunoglobulin, and thrombin.

Abstract
Aim Dietary approaches for the regulation of blood pressure are the need of the hour. Hence, identifying the foods possessing such activity is gaining importance. With this aim, moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia), an underutilized pulse, was explored for the presence of antihypertensive activity in terms of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibition bioactivity. Methods Defatted moth bean protein concentrate was hydrolyzed by using different proteases including Alcalase, papain, and trypsin, to identify the enzyme producing highly potent ACE inhibitory peptides. The hydrolysate showing the highest ACE inhibitory activity was further fractionated using an ultrafiltration membrane (10, 3 and 1 kDa) based on ACE inhibitory activity. The active fraction was further subjected to the ion-exchange chromatography followed by RP-HPLC and LC-MS/MS analysis for the enrichment and identification of ACE inhibitory peptides. Finally, based on the bioinformatic analysis, few peptides were synthesized and evaluated for ACE inhibitory activity, followed by docking study and molecular dynamic simulation of a peptide with the highest ACE inhibitory activity. Results and discussion Out of the three proteases, Alcalase-derived hydrolysate showed the highest (~59%) ACE inhibition activity. Molecular weight-based fractionation revealed that <1 kDa fraction possessed the highest ACE inhibitory activity. Activity guided separation of 1 kDa fraction using ion-exchange chromatography, RP-HPLC and LC-MS/MS showed the presence of about 45 peptides. Based on the bioinformatic analysis, 15 peptides were synthesized and evaluated for ACE inhibitory activity. Among these, a novel octapeptide FPPPKVIQ showed the highest ACE inhibitory activity (93.4%) with an IC50 of 0.24 μM. This peptide retained about 59% activity post gastrointestinal digestion simulation. A Dixon plot as well as docking studies revealed the uncompetitive inhibitory nature of this peptide with a Ki value of 0.81 μM. Molecular dynamic simulation studies till 100 ns ensured the stability of the ACE-peptide complex. Conclusion Thus, present study identified a novel potent ACE inhibitory peptide from moth bean that can be incorporated in a functional dietary formulation for regulation of hypertension.

Abstract
High-intensity ultrasound (HIU) is considered one of the promising non-chemical eco-friendly techniques used in food processing. Recently (HIU) is known to enhance food quality, extraction of bioactive compounds and formulation of emulsions. Various foods are treated with ultrasound, including fats, bioactive compounds, and proteins. Regarding proteins, HIU induces acoustic cavitation and bubble formation, causing the unfolding and exposure of hydrophobic regions, resulting in functional, bioactive, and structural enhancement. This review briefly portrays the impact of HIU on the bioavailability and bioactive properties of proteins; the effect of HIU on protein allergenicity and anti-nutritional factors has also been discussed. HIU can enhance bioavailability and bioactive attributes in plants and animal-based proteins, such as antioxidant activity, antimicrobial activity, and peptide release. Moreover, numerous studies revealed that HIU treatment could enhance functional properties, increase the release of short-chain peptides, and decrease allergenicity. HIU could replace the chemical and heat treatments used to enhance protein bioactivity and digestibility; however, its applications are still on research and small scale, and its usage in industries is yet to be implemented.

Abstract
Hempseed (Cannabis sativa) is one of the most promising sources of plant proteins. It contains approximately 24% (w/w) protein, and edestin accounts for approximately 60-80% (w/w) of its total proteins. In a framework of research aimed at fostering the proteins recovered from the press cake by-products generated after the extraction of hempseed oil, two hempseed protein hydrolysates (HH1 and HH2) were produced at an industrial level using a mixture of different enzymes from Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus oryzae, and Bacillus licheniformis for different times (5 h and 18 h). Using a combination of different direct antioxidant tests (DPPH, TEAC, FRAP, and ORAC assays, respectively), it has been demonstrated that HHs exert potent, direct antioxidant activity. A crucial feature of bioactive peptides is their intestinal bioavailability; for this reason, in order to solve this peculiar issue, the ability of HH peptides to be transported by differentiated human intestinal Caco-2 cells has been evaluated. Notably, by using mass spectrometry analysis (HPLC Chip ESI-MS/MS), the stable peptides transported by intestinal cells have been identified, and dedicated experiments confirmed that the trans-epithelial transported HH peptide mixtures retain their antioxidant activity, suggesting that these hempseed hydrolysates may be considered sustainable antioxidant ingredients to be exploited for further application, i.e., nutraceutical and/or food industries.

Abstract
Antioxidant peptides obtained through enzymatic hydrolysis of food proteins exhibit a broad range of bioactivities both in vitro and in vivo models. The antioxidant peptides showed the potential to fight against the reactive oxygen species, free radicals and other pro-oxidative substances which are considered the source of various chronic diseases for humans. Both animals and plants have been recognized as natural protein sources and attracted much research interest over the synthetic ones in terms of safety. However, the main challenge remains to increase the antioxidant peptides yield, reduce the enzyme quantity and the reaction time. Consequently, different efficient and innovative food processing technologies such as thermal, ultrasound, microwave, high hydrostatic pressure, pulsed electric field, etc. have been developed and currently used to treat food proteins before (pretreatment) or during the enzymatic hydrolysis (assisted). Those technologies were found to significantly enhance the degree of hydrolysis and the production of substantial antioxidant peptides. These emerging technologies enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis by inducing protein denaturation/unfolding, and the enzymatic activation without altering their functional and nutritional properties. This review discusses the state of the art of thermal, ultrasound, high hydrostatic pressure, microwave, and pulsed electric field techniques, their applications while coupled with enzymatic hydrolysis, their comparison and potential challenges for the production of antioxidant peptides from food proteins.

Abstract
The functionality of the peptides obtained through enzymatic hydrolysis of spent brewer's yeast was investigated. Hydrolysis was carried out for 4-67 h with bromelain, neutrase and trypsin. The resulting hydrolysates were characterized in terms of physical-chemical, antioxidant and techno-functional properties. The solid residues and soluble protein contents increased with the hydrolysis time, the highest values being measured in samples hydrolyzed with neutrase. Regardless of the hydrolysis time, the maximum degree of hydrolysis was measured in the sample hydrolyzed with neutrase, while the lowest was in the sample hydrolyzed with trypsin. The protein hydrolysate obtained with neutrase exhibited the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity (116.9 ± 2.9 μM TE/g dw), followed by the sample hydrolyzed with trypsin (102.8 ± 2.7 μM TE/g dw). Upon ultrafiltration, the fraction of low molecular weight peptides (<3 kDa) released by bromelain presented the highest antioxidant activity (50.06 ± 0.39 μM TE/g dw). The enzymes influenced the foaming properties and the emulsions-forming ability of the hydrolysates. The trypsin ensured the obtaining of proteins hydrolysate with the highest foam overrun and stability. The emulsions based on hydrolysates obtained with neutrase exhibited the highest viscosity at a shear rate over 10 s-1. These results indicate that the investigated proteases are suitable for modulating the overall functionality of the yeast proteins.

Abstract
New challenges in food production and processing are appearing due to increasing global population and the purpose of achieving a sustainable food system. Bioactive peptides obtained from food proteins can be employed to prevent or pre-treat several diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, thrombosis, cancer, etc. Research on the bioactivity of protein hydrolysates is very extensive, especially in vitro tests, although there are also tests in animal models and in humans studies designed to verify their efficacy. However, there is very little published literature on the functionality of these protein hydrolysates as an ingredient in food matrices, as well as the effect that thermal or non-thermal processing, and storage may have on the bioactivity of these bioactive peptides. This review aims to summarize the published literature on protein hydrolysates as a functional ingredient including processing, storage and simulated gastrointestinal digestion regarding the bioactivity of these peptides inside food matrices.

Abstract
Alcohol-induced liver injury has become a leading risk for human health, however, effective strategies for the prevention or treatment are still lacking. Hence, the present study explored the potential of Musculus senhousei as a source of hepatoprotective peptides against alcoholic liver injury using in vitro, in vivo and in silico methods. Results indicated that Musculus senhousei peptides (MSP, extracted by simulated gastrointestinal digestion of cooked mussel) exhibited notable antioxidant (ABTS and DPPH assays) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) stabilizing activity in vitro. The ingestion of MSP markedly alleviated alcohol-induced liver injury in mice, as indicated by the decrease of serum transaminases (AST and ALT). In line with in vitro assays, significantly increased hepatic ADH activity and activated antioxidative defense system (GSH, SOD, GSH-Px and CAT) were observed, whereas the oxidative stress (MDA) was decreased. Peptidomic analysis revealed over 6000 peptides with favorable amino acid compositions, and a total of 20 potentially novel peptides with bioactivity and bioavailability were excavated among 746 of the most influential peptides using an in silico strategy. Peptides (i.e. WLPMKL, WLWLPA, RLC and RCL) were further synthesized and validated in vitro to be bioactive. These findings suggest that Musculus senhousei can be an ideal source of bioactive peptides for the prevention of alcoholic liver injury.

Abstract
In recent years, numerous reports have described bioactive peptides (biopeptides)/hydrolysates produced from various food sources. Biopeptides are considered interesting for industrial application since they show numerous functional properties (e.g., anti-aging, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties) and technological properties (e.g., solubility, emulsifying, and foaming). Moreover, they have fewer side effects than synthetic drugs. Nevertheless, some challenges must be overcome before their administration via the oral route. The gastric, pancreatic, and small intestinal enzymes and acidic stomach conditions can affect their bioavailability and the levels that can reach the site of action. Some delivery systems have been studied to avoid these problems (e.g., microemulsions, liposomes, solid lipid particles). This paper summarizes the results of studies conducted on biopeptides isolated from plants, marine organisms, animals, and biowaste by-products, discusses their potential application in the nutricosmetic industry, and considers potential delivery systems that could maintain their bioactivity. Our results show that food peptides are environmentally sustainable products that can be used as antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory agents in nutricosmetic formulations. Biopeptide production from biowaste requires expertise in analytical procedures and good manufacturing practice. It is hoped that new analytical procedures can be developed to simplify large-scale production and that the authorities adopt and regulate use of appropriate testing standards to guarantee the population's safety.

Abstract
In this study, giant kelp was explored under various conventional and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) conditions for the extraction of protein, its hydrolysis, and ultrafiltration to generate multiple fractions. The amino acid composition of all the fractions and their biological activities in vitro, including angiotensin-converting enzyme I (ACE) inhibitory activity and antioxidant activities (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, reducing power (RP), and ferrous chelating (FC) activities) were tested by storing the compounds for 2 weeks at various temperatures (-20-60 °C) and pHs (2-11) to elucidate their thermal and ionic stability, respectively. The yield of protein extraction using the conventional method was lower (≈39%) compared to the use of UAE (150 W, 15 min), which achieved protein recoveries of approximately 60%. After enzymatic hydrolysis and ultrafiltration, low-molecular-weight (MW) hydrolysates had the highest levels of ACE inhibitory (80%), DPPH (84%), RP (0.71 mM trolox equivalents), and FC (81%) activities. Amino acids associated with peptides of high biological activities, such as Val, Ala, Asx, Gly, Lys, Met, Leu, and His, were at higher levels in the low MW fraction compared to any other sample. The biological activities in vitro of all the samples fluctuated under the multiple storage conditions studied, with the highest stability of all the samples appreciated at -20 °C and pH 7. This study shows for the first time the use of giant kelp as a promising source of bioactive peptides and indicates the optimum processing and storing conditions for the use of these compounds as nutraceuticals or functional foods that could help in the prevention of cardiovascular disorders and multiple chronic diseases associated with oxidative damage.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides (BAPs) derived from food proteins have been extensively studied for their health benefits, majorly exploring their potential use as nutraceuticals and functional food components. These peptides possess a range of beneficial properties, including antihypertensive, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and antibacterial activities, and are naturally present within dietary protein sequences. To release food-grade antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), enzymatic protein hydrolysis or microbial fermentation, such as with lactic acid bacteria (LAB), can be employed. The activity of AMPs is influenced by various structural characteristics, including the amino acid composition, three-dimensional conformation, liquid charge, putative domains, and resulting hydrophobicity. This review discusses the synthesis of BAPs and AMPs, their potential for controlling foodborne pathogens, their mechanisms of action, and the challenges and prospects faced by the food industry. BAPs can regulate gut microbiota by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria or by directly inhibiting pathogenic microorganisms. LAB-promoted hydrolysis of dietary proteins occurs naturally in both the matrix and the gastrointestinal tract. However, several obstacles must be overcome before BAPs can replace antimicrobials in food production. These include the high manufacturing costs of current technologies, limited in vivo and matrix data, and the difficulties associated with standardization and commercial-scale production.

Abstract
In recent years, microbial food safety has garnered a lot of attention due to worldwide expansion of the food industry and processed food products. This has driven the development of novel preservation methods over traditional ones. Food-derived antimicrobial peptides (F-AMPs), produced by the proteolytic degradation of food proteins, are emerging as pragmatic alternatives for extension of the shelf-life of food products. The main benefits of F-AMPs are their wide spectrum antimicrobial efficacy and low propensity for the development of antibiotic resistance. However, direct application of F-AMPs in food limits its efficacy during storage. Therefore, the development of nanocarriers for the conjugation and distribution of potential AMPs may hold great potential to increase their bioactivity. This review highlights the significance of F-AMPs as a feasible and sustainable alternative to conventional food preservatives. The most recent developments in production, characterization, and mode of action of these AMPs against planktonic and biofilm forming pathogens are thoroughly discussed in this work. Moreover, nano-conjugation of F-AMPs with different nano-carriers and potential future application in food packaging are emphasized. This review may aid in comprehending the nano-conjugation of F-AMPs and offer insightful recommendations for further exploration and potential uses in the food processing industry.

Abstract
This study was designed to prepare a cattle bone-derived collagen peptide-calcium chelate by the ultrasound method (CP-Ca-US), and its structure, stability, and bioactivity on MC3T3-E1 cells were characterized. Single-factor experiments optimized the preparation conditions: ultrasound power 90 W, ultrasound time 40 min, CaCl2/peptides ratio 1/2, pH 7. Under these conditions, the calcium-chelating ability reached 39.48 μg mg-1. The result of Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy indicated that carboxyl oxygen and amino nitrogen atoms were chelation sites. Morphological analysis indicated that CP-Ca-US was characterized by a porous surface and large particles. Stability analysis demonstrated that CP-Ca-US was stable in the thermal environment and under intestinal digestion. CP-Ca-US showed more stability in gastric juice than the chelate prepared by the hydrothermal method. Cell experiments indicated that CP-Ca-US increased osteoblast proliferation (proliferation rate 153% at a concentration of 300 μg mL-1) and altered the cell cycle. Significantly, CP-Ca-US enhanced calcium absorption by interacting with calcium-sensing receptors and promoted the mineralization of MC3T3-E1 cells. This study provides the scientific basis for applying the ultrasound method to prepare peptide-calcium chelates and clarifies the positive role of chelates in bone building.

Abstract
Lactobacillus strains fermentation of broccoli as a good source of bioactive peptides has not been fully elucidated. In this work, the peptide composition of broccoli fermented by L. plantarum A3 and L. rhamnosus ATCC7469 was analyzed by peptidomics to study the protein digestion patterns after fermentation by different strains. Results showed that water-soluble proteins such as rubisco were abundant sources of peptides, which triggered the sustained release of peptides as the main target of hydrolysis. In addition, 17 novel anti-inflammatory peptides were identified by virtual screening. Among them, SIWYGPDRP had the strongest ability to inhibit the release of NO from inflammatory cells at a concentration of 25 μM with an inhibition rate of 52.32 ± 1.48%. RFR and KASFAFAGL had the strongest inhibitory effects on the secretion of TNF-α and IL-6, respectively. At a concentration of 25 μM, the corresponding inhibition rates were 74.61 ± 1.68% and 29.84 ± 0.63%, respectively. Molecular docking results showed that 17 peptides formed hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions with inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). This study is conducive to the high-value utilization of broccoli and reduction of the antibiotic use.

Exploration of the Nutritional and Functional Properties of Underutilized Grains as an Alternative Source for the Research of Food-Derived Bioactive Peptides. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15020351. [PMID: 36678223 PMCID: PMC9864886 DOI: 10.3390/nu15020351] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
The estimated increase in world population will lead to a deterioration in global food security, aggravated in developing countries by hidden hunger resulting from protein deficiency. To reduce or avoid this crisis, a dietary shift towards the consumption of sustainable, nutrient-rich, and calorically efficient food products has been recommended by the FAO and WHO. Plant proteins derived from grains and seeds provide nutritionally balanced diets, improve health status, reduce poverty, enhance food security, and contain several functional compounds. In this review, the current evidence on the nutritional and functional properties of underutilized grains is summarized, focusing on their incorporation into functional foods and the role of their proteins as novel source of bioactive peptides with health benefits.
