Abstract
The present study focused on preparing rohu egg sauce using optimized conditions through enzymatic and fermentative methods. The enzymatic preparation of rohu egg sauce (ERS) involved homogenizing the eggs in water at a ratio of 1:0.9 (w/v), followed by the addition of salt (20% w/w) and papain (3% w/w). A mixture containing salt (25% w/w), sugar (7.5% w/w), and inoculum (10% (w/v)) of Pediococcus pentosaceus FSBP4-40 was utilized to prepare fermentatively produced rohu egg sauce (FRS). ERS and FRS were then stored at room temperature (25 ± 2 °C) and 37 °C for 180 days. After storage, both sauces were evaluated for their scavenging activity against DPPH, ABTS, and superoxide anion (SOA). The ERS demonstrated significantly higher DPPH, ABTS, and SOA scavenging activity compared to the FRS, with values of 61.61 ± 7.33%, 71.21 ± 2.14%, and 85.11 ± 4.92%, respectively, as opposed to 37.49 ± 5.34, 52.31 ± 1.76%, and 63.09 ± 2.31%. Significant changes were observed in the fatty acid profile of the sauces during 180 day storage. Furthermore, after 180 days, the bacterial counts in the FRS were much lower than in the ERS. Overall, this study highlights the importance of using enzymes and LAB in accelerating the hydrolytic process to produce biofunctional rohu egg sauce.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the nutrient composition of low-grade New Zealand commercial fish (Gemfish and Hoki) roe and to investigate the effects of delipidation and freeze-drying processes on roe hydrolysis and antioxidant activities of their protein hydrolysates. Enzymatic hydrolysis of the Hoki and Gemfish roe homogenates was carried out using three commercial proteases: Alcalase, bacterial protease HT, and fungal protease FP-II. The protein and lipid contents of Gemfish and Hoki roes were 23.8% and 7.6%; and 17.9% and 10.1%, respectively. The lipid fraction consisted mainly of monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) in both Gemfish roe (41.5%) and Hoki roe (40.2%), and docosahexaenoic (DHA) was the dominant polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in Gemfish roe (21.4%) and Hoki roe (18.6%). Phosphatidylcholine was the main phospholipid in Gemfish roe (34.6%) and Hoki roe (28.7%). Alcalase achieved the most extensive hydrolysis, and its hydrolysate displayed the highest 2,2-dipheny1-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)˙ and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP). The combination of defatting and freeze-drying treatments reduced DPPH˙ scavenging activity (by 38%), ABTS˙ scavenging activity (by 40%) and ferric (Fe3+) reducing power by18% (p < 0.05). These findings indicate that pre-processing treatments of delipidation and freeze-drying could negatively impact the effectiveness of enzymatic hydrolysis in extracting valuable compounds from low grade roe.

Abstract
Octocoral of the genus Clavularia is a kind of marine invertebrate possessing abundant cytotoxic secondary metabolites, such as prostanoids and dolabellanes. In our continuous natural product study of C. spp., two previously undescribed prostanoids [clavulone I-15-one (1) and 12-O-deacetylclavulone I (2)] and eleven known analogs (3-13) were identified. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated based on analysis of their 1D and 2D NMR, HRESIMS, and IR data. Additionally, all tested prostanoids (1 and 3-13) showed potent cytotoxic activities against the human oral cancer cell line (Ca9-22). The major compound 3 showed cytotoxic activity against the Ca9-22 cells with the IC50 value of 2.11 ± 0.03 μg/mL, which echoes the cytotoxic effect of the coral extract. In addition, in silico tools were used to predict the possible effects of isolated compounds on human tumor cell lines and nitric oxide production, as well as the pharmacological potentials.

Abstract
Cancer is still considered a lethal disease worldwide and the patients' quality of life is affected by major side effects of the treatments including post-surgery complications, chemo-, and radiation therapy. Recently, new therapeutic approaches were considered globally for increasing conventional cancer therapy efficacy and decreasing the adverse effects. Bioactive peptides obtained from plant and animal sources have drawn increased attention because of their potential as complementary therapy. This review presents a contemporary examination of bioactive peptides derived from natural origins with demonstrated anticancer, ant invasion, and immunomodulation properties. For example, peptides derived from common beans, chickpeas, wheat germ, and mung beans exhibited antiproliferative and toxic effects on cancer cells, favoring cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. On the other hand, peptides from marine sources showed the potential for inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis. In this review we will discuss these data highlighting the potential befits of these approaches and the need of further investigations to fully characterize their potential in clinics.

Abstract
Anti-proliferative peptides have recently attracted attention for their excellent bioactivity and biocompatibility. In this paper, five novel anti-proliferative peptides were identified from the hydrolysate of hybrid sturgeon spinal cord (HSSC). In addition, the structure-activity relationship of the novel anti-proliferative peptides was explored. In vitro experiments indicated that the peptide "VDSVLDVVRK" presented the highest inhibition of HeLa cell growth in all samples (IC50 = 2.5 μM). VDSVLDVVRK showed a random coil secondary structure and nanomicelles in the tumor microenvironment. Transmission electron microscopy results confirmed that nanomicelles disassemble as the concentration of VDSVLDVVRK decreases. Furthermore, VDSVLDVVRK could induce HeLa cell apoptosis by increasing the expression of Cyt-c (98.65 ± 1.85%, p < 0.01) and caspase-9 (39.85 ± 1.81%, p < 0.01). In this study, the anti-proliferative mechanism of the HSSC peptide was discussed, which provided a theoretical basis for the research and development of anti-proliferative functional food.

Abstract
Protein hydrolysates from various sources, including tuna cooking juice, soy protein isolate, sodium caseinate, wheat gluten and skin gelatin from porcine, tilapia, halibut and milkfish were analyzed to screen their antiproliferative activities against the human oral squamous carcinoma cell line, HSC-3. The soy protein isolate was selected for further investigations based on its hydrolysates with bromelain (SB) and thermolysin (ST), showing the greatest inhibition of cell growth. The SB and ST hydrolysates showed antiproliferative activities up to 35.45–76.39% against HSC-3 cells at 72 h, and their IC50 values were 0.74 and 0.60 mg/mL, respectively. SB and ST induced cell cycle arrest in the S phase through a pathway independent of p21 and p27 protein expression. Further, ST induced the apoptosis of HSC-3 cells by downregulating expression of Bcl-2, PARP, caspase 3 and caspase 9, but an upregulating expression of p53 and cleaved caspase 3. Unlike ST, SB may induce necrosis on HSC-3 cells. Thus, soybean hydrolysates may be a good source for providing antiproliferative peptides against HSC-3, while SB and ST may have the potential to be developed as functional foods.

Abstract
Gelatin is obtained via partial denaturation of collagen and is extensively used in various industries. The majority of gelatin utilized globally is derived from a mammalian source. Several health and religious concerns associated with porcine/bovine gelatin were reported. Therefore, gelatin from a marine source is widely being investigated for its efficiency and utilization in a variety of applications as a potential substitute for porcine/bovine gelatin. Although fish gelatin is less durable and possesses lower melting and gelling temperatures compared to mammal-derived gelatin, various modifications are being reported to promote its rheological and functional properties to be efficiently employed. The present review describes in detail the current innovative applications of fish gelatin involving the food industry, drug delivery and possible therapeutic applications. Gelatin bioactive molecules may be utilized as carriers for drug delivery. Due to its versatility, gelatin can be used in different carrier systems, such as microparticles, nanoparticles, fibers and hydrogels. The present review also provides a perspective on the other potential pharmaceutical applications of fish gelatin, such as tissue regeneration, antioxidant supplementation, antihypertensive and anticancer treatments.

Abstract
Background Oxidative stress is an important factor in the modulation of both tumorigenesis and anticancer responses. Ozone (O3) is a strong oxidant that causes redox reactions and exerts anticancer effects in various types of cancer cells. However, the pathways involved in O3-induced cell death are not well understood. Methods In vitro human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) BEL7402 cells were treated with various O3 concentrations to evaluate O3 cytotoxicity by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry. The regulatory mechanisms were analyzed by western blot analysis. In vivo, an HCC model was established to evaluate the inhibition of HCC with O3 treatment. Results In vitro cells treated with O3 exhibited a round and small morphology with nuclear shrinkage and fragmentation. The CCK-8 assay confirmed the potent cytotoxic activity of O3 against BEL7402 cells (IC50 value of 5 µg/mL). Acridine orange/ethidium bromide (AO/EB) staining revealed apoptosis of BEL7402 cells after O3 treatment. Flow cytometry analysis showed that S phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis increased with O3 exposure. In addition, O3 exposure reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. Western blot analysis showed that O3 exposure reduced B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) expression and increased cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP), cytochrome C (Cyt-C), caspase-3, caspase-9, and p-JNK expression. In vivo, treatment with intratumor injection O3 (20 µg/mL) inhibited HCC growth. Conclusions Overall, our findings showed that O3 induces BEL7402 cell apoptosis via the intrinsic mitochondria-dependent pathway. Therefore, O3 has therapeutic potential for HCC.

Abstract
Developing peptide-based drugs are very promising to address many of the lifestyle mediated diseases which are prevalent in a major portion of the global population. As an alternative to synthetic peptide-based drugs, derived peptides from natural sources have gained a greater attention in the last two decades. Aquatic organisms including plants, fish and shellfish are known as a rich reservoir of parent protein molecules which can offer novel sequences of amino acids in peptides, having unique bio-functional properties upon hydrolyzing with proteases from different sources. However, rather than exploiting fish and shellfish stocks which are already under pressure due to overexploitation, the processing discards, regarded as secondary raw material, could be a potential choice for peptide based therapeutic development strategies. In this connection, we have attempted to review the scientific reports in this area of research that deal with some of the well-established bioactive properties, such as antihypertensive, anti-oxidative, anti-coagulative, antibacterial and anticarcinogenic properties, with reference to the type of enzymes, substrate used, degree of particular bio-functionality, mechanism, and wherever possible, the active amino acid sequences in peptides. Many of the studies have been conducted on hydrolysate (crude mixture of peptides) enriched with low molecular bioactive peptides. In vitro and in vivo experiments on the potency of bioactive peptides to modulate the human physiological functions beneficially have demonstrated that these peptides can be used in the prevention and treatment of non-communicable lifestyle mediated diseases. The information synthesized under this review could serve as a point of reference to drive further research on and development of functionally active therapeutic natural peptides. Availability of such scientific information is expected to open up new zones of investigation for adding value to underutilized secondary raw materials, which in turn paves the way for sustainability in fish processing. However, there are significant challenges ahead in exploring the fish waste as a source of bioactive peptides, as it demands more studies on mechanisms and structure–function relationship understanding as well as clearance from regulatory and statutory bodies before reaching the end user in the form of supplement or therapeutics.

Abstract
The global demand for dietary proteins and protein-derived products are projected to dramatically increase which cannot be met using traditional protein sources. Seafood processing by-products (SPBs) and microalgae are promising resources that can fill the demand gap for proteins and protein derivatives. Globally, 32 million tonnes of SPBs are estimated to be produced annually which represents an inexpensive resource for protein recovery while technical advantages in microalgal biomass production would yield secure protein supplies with minimal competition for arable land and freshwater resources. Moreover, these biomaterials are a rich source of proteins with high nutritional quality while protein hydrolysates and biopeptides derived from these marine proteins possess several useful bioactivities for commercial applications in multiple industries. Efficient utilisation of these marine biomaterials for protein recovery would not only supplement global demand and save natural bioresources but would also successfully address the financial and environmental burdens of biowaste, paving the way for greener production and a circular economy. This comprehensive review analyses the potential of using SPBs and microalgae for protein recovery and production critically assessing the feasibility of current and emerging technologies used for the process development. Nutritional quality, functionalities, and bioactivities of the extracted proteins and derived products together with their potential applications for commercial product development are also systematically summarised and discussed.

Abstract
A lactoferrin hydrolysate (LFH) was generated from bovine lactoferrin by pepsin, mixed with Cu2+ and Mn2+ at 0.64-1.28 and 0.28-0.56 mg/g protein, respectively; and then their in vitro effects on human gastric cancer AGS cells were assessed. With incubation times of 24 or 48 h, LFH and its Cu2+/Mn2+ mixtures at 10-30 mg/mL in dose-dependent manner inhibited cell growth; and more, these mixtures showed higher activities than LFH alone. Cell treatments of LFH and the mixtures (25 mg/mL) for 24 h could arrest cell cycle at G0/G1-phase, damage mitochondrial membrane integrity, and induce apoptosis, while the mixtures were also more powerful than LFH to exert these three effects. Higher Cu2+/Mn2+ supplementation level resulted in higher growth inhibition, cell cycle arrest, mitochondrial membrane potential disruption, and apoptosis induction; furthermore, Mn2+ was notable for its higher efficacy than Cu2+ to increase these four effects. Western-blot assay results revealed that four apoptosis-related proteins Bad, Bax, cytochrome c, and p53 were up-regulated, and both caspase-3 and caspase-9 also were cleaved and activated; moreover, two autophagy-related proteins LC3-II and cleaved Beclin-1 were down- and up-regulated, respectively. It is thus concluded that Cu2+ and especially Mn2+ could endow supplemented LFH with increased anti-cancer effects in AGS cells, with two proposed events as enhanced apoptosis induction (via activating apoptosis-related proteins) and autophagy inhibition (via activating autophagy-related proteins).

[PMID: 30934696 PMCID: PMC6480624 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24071195] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2019] [Revised: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 03/23/2019] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Bovine lactoferrin hydrolysate (BLH) was prepared with pepsin, fortified with Cu2+ (Mn2+) 0.64 and 1.28 (0.28 and 0.56) mg/g protein, and then assessed for their activity against human gastric cancer BGC-823 cells. BLH and the four fortified BLH products dose- and time-dependently had growth inhibition on the cells in both short- and long-time experiments. These samples at dose level of 25 mg/mL could stop cell-cycle progression at the G0/G1-phase, damage mitochondrial membrane, and induce cell apoptosis. In total, the fortified BLH products had higher activities in the cells than BLH alone. Moreover, higher Cu/Mn fortification level brought higher effects, and Mn was more effective than Cu to increase these effects. In the treated cells, the apoptosis-related proteins such as Bad, Bax, p53, cytochrome c, caspase-3, and caspase-9 were up-regulated, while Bcl-2 was down-regulated. Caspase-3 activation was also evidenced using a caspase-3 inhibitor, z-VAD-fmk. Thus, Cu- and especially Mn-fortification of BLH brought health benefits such as increased anti-cancer activity in the BGC-823 cells via activating the apoptosis-related proteins to induce cell apoptosis.
