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.

Protein Characteristics and Bioactivity of Fish Protein Hydrolysates from Tra Catfish ( Pangasius hypophthalmus) Side Stream Isolates. Foods 2022; 11:foods11244102. [PMID: 36553843 PMCID: PMC9778320 DOI: 10.3390/foods11244102] [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: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Enzymatic hydrolysis is a novel method to recover highly potent bioactive fish protein hydrolysates (FPHs) from fish processing side-streams. The common way of producing FPHs directly from fish side-streams may be inappropriate due to the excess of lipids and pro-oxidants, especially in lipid-rich streams, as obtained from Tra catfish. This study aimed to optimise the hydrolysis conditions for a commercial enzyme (Alcalase® 2.4 L) (enzyme concentrate, temperature, and time) in FPH production from the fish protein isolate obtained from Tra catfish dark muscle (DM-FPI) using the pH-shift method. The degree of hydrolysis (DH), protein recovery (PR), and antioxidant properties, including DPPH radical scavenging activity (DPPH-RSA) and total reducing power capacity (TRPC), were measured to evaluate the effects of the hydrolysis conditions on the FPHs. Optimal hydrolysis was obtained at an enzyme/substrate protein ratio of 3% (v/w) and a hydrolysis temperature of 50 °C for 3 h. The FPHs obtained from different substrates, including DM-FPI, abdominal cut-off (ACO) FPI, and head and backbone blend (HBB) FPI, had similar DHs under these optimum conditions, ranging from 22.5% to 24.0%. However, the FPH obtained from abdominal cut-off isolate (ACO-FPH) showed the highest PR of 81.5 ± 4.3% and the highest antioxidant properties, with a DPPH-RSA of 86.1 ± 1.6% and a TRPC of 6.4 ± 0.4 equivalent mg vitamin C/g protein. The resulting FPHs present a natural source of antioxidants with great potential for food applications, especially the ACO-FPH. In addition, all FPHs had excellent amino acid profiles, indicating strong potential for their use as supplements. Tra catfish protein-rich side-streams can thus be processed into high-value bioactive FPHs using Alcalase for human consumption.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides used for food preservation can prolong the shelf life through bacteriostasis and antioxidation. On the one hand, bioactive peptides can inhibit lipid oxidation by scavenging free radicals, interacting with metal ions, and inhibiting lipid peroxidation. On the other hand, bioactive peptides can fundamentally inhibit the growth and reproduction of microorganisms by destroying their cell membranes or targeting intracellular components. Besides, bioactive peptides are biocompatible and biodegradable in vivo. Therefore, they are regarded as a promising alternative to chemical preservatives. However, bioactive peptides are easily affected by the external environment in practical application, which hinders their commercialization. Currently, the studies to overcome the weakness focus on encapsulation and chemical synthesis. Bioactive peptides have been applied to the preservation of various foods in experimental research, with good results. In the future, with the deepening understanding of their safety and structure-activity relationship, there may be more bioactive peptides as food preservatives.

Abstract
Recently, the demand for functional foods in the global market has increased rapidly due to the increasing occurrences of non-communicable diseases and technological advancement. Antioxidant peptides have been suggested as ingredients used to produce health-promoting foods. These peptides are encrypted from various food derived protein sources by chemical and enzymatic hydrolysis, and microbial fermentation. However, the industrial-scale production of antioxidant peptides is hampered by different problems such as high production cost, and low yield and bioactivity. Accordingly, novel processing technologies, such as high pressure, microwave and pulsed electric field, have been recently emerged to overcome the problems associated with the conventional hydrolysis methods. This particular review, therefore, discussed the current processing technologies used to produce antioxidant peptides. The review also suggested further perspectives that should be addressed in the future.

Abstract
Oyster (Crassostrea talienwhanensis) protein was hydrolyzed by trypsin to produce peptides with different response values, and response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the hydrolysis conditions. The highest degree of hydrolysis (DH) of the oyster peptide (OP) was obtained at an enzyme concentration of 1593.2 U/g, a pH of 8.2, a hydrolysis temperature of 40.1 °C, a hydrolysis time of 6.0 h, and a water/material ratio of 8.2. The greatest hydroxyl-radical-scavenging activity of OP was obtained at an enzyme concentration of 1546.3 U/g, a pH of 9.0, a hydrolysis temperature of 50.2 °C, a hydrolysis time of 5.1 h, and a water/material ratio of 5.6. The largest branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) content of OP was obtained at an enzyme concentration of 1323.8 U/g, a pH of 8.3, a hydrolysis temperature of 41.7 °C, a hydrolysis time of 6.7 h, and a water/material ratio of 4.8. The three experimental values were significantly in agreement with the predicted values within the 95% confidence interval. Furthermore, ultrafiltration and chromatographic methods were used to purify the OP, and 13 peptides that were rich in Lys, Arg, His, and Thr were identified by LC-MS/MS. The results of this study offer different optimum hydrolysis conditions to produce target peptides from oyster protein by using RSM, and this study provide a theoretical basis for the high-value utilization of oyster protein.

Abstract
Carrot is a very popular vegetable and used for culinary and cosmetic purposes. Carrot seeds can be used for treatment of hangovers and stimulating menstruation. In the present study, the carrot seed protein (CSP) extracted from carrot seed (Daucus carota L.) was hydrolysed by four proteases (papain, trypsin, neutrase, and alcalase). Alcalase hydrolysate exhibited the strongest DPPH radical-scavenging activity (DRSA). The optimum hydrolysis condition for the antioxidant peptide production from CSP was obtained using response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum condition was as follows: hydrolysis time of 3.50 h, substrate concentration of 52.8 g/L, and protease dosage of 419.36 U/g, under which DRSA of 82.46% at 2 mg/mL was obtained. The carrot seed protein hydrolysates (CSPHs) were separated using size exclusion chromatography in order to obtain peptides with stronger antioxidant activity. The hydrolysates were fractionated into four peaks, and fractions F3 and F4 with smaller molecular weight showed stronger antioxidant activity. These findings indicated that the success of RSM in optimizing the hydrolysis conditions and the further work in separation of antioxidant peptides in CSPH is feasible. The CSPH exhibites good antioxidant properties and can be used as useful ingredient in foods.

Abstract
Mackerel (Pneumatophorus japonicus) viscera contain large amount of protein. We used five proteases to hydrolyze the viscera, and the hydrolysate treated by neutrase exhibited the highest nitrogen recovery (NR). Then we optimized the preparation conditions for mackerel viscera hydrolysate (MVH) by response surface methodology and investigated the antioxidant activity of MVH. The optimal conditions were as follows: enzyme concentration of 1,762.87 U/g, pH of 6.76, temperature of 43.75 °C, extraction time of 6.0 h and water/material ratio of 20.37 (v/w), and the maximum NR was 37.84%. Furthermore, the molecular weight distribution of MVH was almost below 3,000 Da determined by TSK G2000 SWXL gel filtration chromatography, and the MVH exhibited good antioxidant activities in various in vitro assays, including DPPH radical, hydroxyl radical and superoxide anion scavenging activities, reducing power and similar effectivelness as butylated hydroxytoluene and Vitamin E to inhibit lipid peroxidation. The results suggested that MVH could be used as a potential source of antioxidant peptide in food industries.
