In this project we report on the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of a bovine gelatin hydrolysate (Bh2) that was submitted to further hydrolysis by different enzymes. The thermolysin hydrolysate (Bh2t) showed the highest in vitro ACE inhibitory activity, and interestingly a marked in vivo blood pressure-lowering effect was demonstrated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). In contrast, Bh2 showed no effect in SHR, confirming the need for the extra thermolysin hydrolysis. Hence, an angiotensin I-evoked contractile response in isolated rat aortic rings was inhibited by Bh2t, but not by Bh2, suggesting ACE inhibition as the underlying antihypertensive mechanism for Bh2t. Using mass spectrometry, seven small peptides, AG, AGP, VGP, PY, QY, DY and IY or LY or HO-PY were identified in Bh2t. As these peptides showed ACE inhibitory activity and were more prominent in Bh2t than in Bh2, the current data provide evidence that these contribute to the antihypertensive effect of Bh2t.  相似文献

Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides prepared from soy protein by the action of alcalase enzyme was tested for its hypotensive effect on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Captopril, an ACE inhibitor used widely for hypertension treatment, was also applied in comparison. A significant (p < 0.05) decrease in systolic blood pressure of SHR was observed when soy ACE inhibitory peptides were orally administrated at three different dose levels (100, 500, and 1000 mg/kg of body weight/day), whereas little change occurred in the blood pressure of normotensive rats even at the highest dose. After a month-long feeding, blood pressure readings of SHR fell by approximately 38 mmHg from the original level at the lowest dose; a steadily and progressively hypotensive effect existed for these soy ACE inhibitory peptides administration groups. An obvious fluctuation was observed at the third week, although Captopril had a stronger hypotensive effect. The ACE activity of serum, aorta and lung, and lipid content of serum of SHR upon administration of soy ACE inhibitory peptides did not show a significant difference from that of the control group, whereas the serum ACE activity increased and the aorta ACE activity decreased significantly (p < 0.05) for the Captopril group. Serum Na(+) concentration decreased significantly in both the peptides-treated groups and the Captopril-treated group in comparison with the control group, whereas no lowering effect was observed for serum K(+) and serum Ca(2+) concentrations. These results suggested that the hypotensive effect of ACE inhibitory peptides derived from soy protein could be at least partly attributed to the action on salt/water balance.  相似文献

The antihypertensive effect of an angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide Ile-Gln-Pro (IQP), whose sequence was derived from Spirulina platensis , was investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) for 1 week. The weighted systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of the peptide IQP-treated group were significantly lower than those of the negative control group from the third and fourth days, respectively. Accompanying the blood pressure reduction, a significant regulation of the expression of major components of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) was found in the treatment group, including downregulation of the mRNA levels of renin, ACE, and the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor in the kidney, as well as serum angiotensinogen (Ang), ACE, and angiotensin II (Ang II) concentrations. The treatment group also showed upregulation of mRNA expression of the angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor in the kidney. Our findings suggested that IQP might be of potential use in the treatment of hypertension.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the antihypertensive potential of common bean protein hydrolysate. Protein concentrates were obtained, followed by Alcalase enzymatic hydrolysis, and then ultrafiltrated (3,000 molecular weight cutoff); the lyophilized product was named BP3. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity was determined as IC50 (3.68 ± 0.07 μg/mL). The antihypertensive effect was evaluated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) by two assays; Captopril ACE inhibitor was used as a reference compound and water as a control. A short‐term assay showed a maximum decrease in mean arterial pressure of –41 ± 5 mmHg in SHR, 3 h after oral administration of 500 mg of BP3/kg of body weight (bw). In a long‐term assay, a significant decrease in systolic blood pressure of –24 ± 5 mmHg was observed in SHR, after 45 days of oral administration of 500 mg of BP3/kg of bw/12 h. In both assays, BP3 treatment showed antihypertensive effect over SHR, similar to Captopril treatment. The sequences of the most abundant peptides present in BP3, determined by mass spectrometry, were identified as KFPWVK, GADFRKK, and PQSPCKRVNRHS. These peptides are reported for the first time in Azufrado Higuera common beans, and they are most likely responsible for the antihypertensive effect of BP3.  相似文献

Synthetic peptides were microencapsulated into liposomes, cycled with a disulfide bond or modified with d-phenylglycine (d-phg) at the N-terminal, and their antihypertensive effects as orally administered (0.18 mM/kg body weight) to spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) were measured. The microencapsulated Leu-Lys-Pro reduced significantly the systolic blood pressures of SHR by 45 mmHg and showed a prolonged duration, revealing the significant protective effect of encapsulation. d-phg-Leu-Arg-Pro showed a duration about 2 h shorter than that of the peptide without modification. In addition, cyclic Leu-Arg-Pro peptide with a disulfide bond between the N- and C-terminal amino acids reduced the systolic blood pressure of SHR by 35 mmHg and displayed a lengthy duration.  相似文献

It has been reported that soybean peptide fractions isolated from Korean fermented soybean paste exert angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity in vitro. In this study, further purification and identification of the most active fraction inhibiting ACE activity were performed, and its antihypertensive activity in vivo was confirmed. Subsequently, a novel ACE inhibitory peptide was isolated by preparative HPLC. The amino acid sequence of the isolated peptide was identified as His-His-Leu (HHL) by Edman degradation. The IC(50) value of the HHL for ACE activity was 2.2 microg/mL in vitro. Moreover, the synthetic tripeptide HHL (spHHL) resulted in a significant decrease of ACE activity in the aorta and led to lowered systolic blood pressure (SBP) in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats compared to control. Triple injections of spHHL, 5 mg/kg of body weight/injection resulted in a significant decrease of SBP by 61 mmHg (p < 0.01) after the third injection. These results demonstrated that the ACE inhibitory peptide HHL derived from Korean fermented soybean paste exerted antihypertensive activity in vivo.  相似文献

In the search for novel peptides that inhibit the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), porcine skeletal troponin was hydrolyzed with pepsin, and the products were subjected to various types of chromatography to isolate active peptides. Glu-Lys-Glu-Arg-Glu-Arg-Gln (EKERERQ) and Lys-Arg-Gln-Lys-Tyr-Asp-Ile (KRQKYDI) were identified as active peptides, and their 50% inhibitory concentrations were found to be 552.5 and 26.2 microM, respectively. These are novel ACE inhibitory peptides, and the activity of KRQKYDI was the strongest among previously reported troponin-originated peptides. KRQKYDI was slowly hydrolyzed by treatment with ACE, and kinetic studies indicated that this peptide was a competitive inhibitor of the enzyme. When KRQKYDI was administered orally to spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at a dose of 10 mg/kg, a temporary antihypertensive activity was observed at 3 and 6 h after administration.  相似文献

Seven kinds of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides were isolated from the hydrolysates of wakame (Undaria pinnatifida) by Protease S "Amano" (from Bacillus stearothermophilus) by using three-step high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a reverse-phase column. These peptides were identified by amino acid composition analysis, sequence analysis, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), as Val-Tyr (IC(50) = 35.2 microM), Ile-Tyr (6.1 microM), Ala-Trp (18.8 microM), Phe-Tyr (42.3 microM), Val-Trp (3.3 microM), Ile-Trp (1.5 microM), and Leu-Trp (23.6 microM). These peptides have resistance against gastrointestinal proteases in vitro. Each peptide was determined to have an antihypertensive effect after a single oral administration in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Among them, the blood pressure significantly decreased by Val-Tyr, Ile-Tyr, Phe-Tyr, and Ile-Trp in a dose of 1 mg/kg of body weight (BW). The present study showed that antihypertensive effect in the hydrolysates of wakame by Protease S "Amano" was attributed to these peptides.  相似文献

In this study, collagen extracted from chicken legs (which are the yellow keratin parts containing a nail) was hydrolyzed with various enzymes, and the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity of each hydrolysate was determined. The hydrolysate by treatment with an Aspergillus species-derived enzyme had the highest activity (IC 50 = 260 microg/mL). The fraction of this hydrolysate obtained by ultrafiltration with a molecular-weight cutoff of 3000 Da (low fraction) had a stronger activity (IC 50 = 130 microg/mL) than the fractionated one. This fraction was further fractionated by HPLC, and the peptides in the fraction with high ACE-inhibitory activity were identified. The amino acid sequences of the four peptides were identified using a protein sequencer. These peptides were synthesized to confirm their ACE-inhibitory activities; this showed that peptides with a Gly-Ala-Hyp-Gly-Leu-Hyp-Gly-Pro sequence had the highest activity (IC 50 = 29 microM). When the low fraction was administered to spontaneous hypertensive rats, a decrease in their blood pressure was observed after 2 h of administration, and a significant decrease in blood pressure (-50 mmHg) was observed after 6 h. Moreover, long-term administration studies indicated that the low fraction showed a significant suppression of increased blood pressure.  相似文献

The blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) decreased after oral administration of an extract prepared from chicken breast muscle, falling maximally to 50 mmHg lower than before. This effect continued for at least 4 h after administration. The peptides possessing hypotensive activity in the chicken extract were examined by measuring the inhibitory activity (IC(50)) against angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE). The inhibitory activity of the chicken extract was 1060 mg%, whereas the activity of the extract treated with an Aspergillus protease and gastric proteases (trypsin, chymotrypsin, and intestinal juice) became stronger, reaching 1.1 mg%. Peptides in this hydrolysate of the extract were isolated by HPLC on a reversed-phase column, and their N-terminal sequences were analyzed. Three peptides possessed a common sequence, Gly-X-X-Gly-X-X-Gly-X-X, which was homologous with that of collagen. The peptide Gly-Phe-Hyp-Gly-Thr-Hyp-Gly-Leu-Hyp-Gly-Phe showed the strongest inhibitory activity (IC(50) = 42 microM).  相似文献

Naturally occurring ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) inhibitory peptides have a potential as antihypertensive components in functional foods or nutraceuticals. These peptides have been discovered in various food sources from plant and animal protein origin. In this paper an overview is presented of the ACE inhibitory peptides obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of muscle protein of meat, fish, and invertebrates. Some of these peptides do not only show in vitro ACE inhibitory activity but also in vivo antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats. To focus on new sources of ACE inhibitory peptides, more specifically insects and other invertebrates, we compared the vertebrate and invertebrate musculature and analyzed phylogenetic relationships.  相似文献

Corn gluten meal (CGM) was hydrolyzed by Alcalase after starch removal of CGM was applied as a pretreatment. A new inhibitory peptide for angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) was isolated from the hydrolysate of CGM with the use of Bio-Rad P-2 gel filtration and followed by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). The sequence of the active peptide was determined to be Ala-Tyr after the application of amino acid analysis and HPLC/MS. The IC50 of the peptide was 14.2 microM, and it was not affected by preincubation with 30 mU of ACE at 37 degrees C for 3 h. Ala-Tyr also exerted antihypertensive effects after oral administration to spontaneously hypertensive rats. A maximal reduction of systolic blood pressure of 9.5 mmHg was observed 2 h after oral administration of Ala-Tyr at doses of 50 mg/kg.  相似文献

Bioprocesses were developed to enhance the value of proteins from deoiled corn germ. Proteins were hydrolyzed with trypsin, thermolysin, GC 106, or Flavourzyme to generate the bioactive peptide sequences. At an enzyme to substrate ratio of 1:100, protein hydrolysis of wet-milled germ was greatest using thermolysin followed by trypsin, GC 106, and Flavourzyme. For the dry-milled corn germ, protein hydrolysis was greatest for GC 106 and least for Flavourzyme. Electrophoretic patterns indicated that the hydrolysis conditions used were adequate for generating low molecular weight peptides for both germs. Unhydrolyzed dry- and wet-milled corn germ did not appear to contain angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory peptides. After hydrolysis with trypsin, thermolysin, and GC 106 but not Flavourzyme, ACE inhibition was observed. ACE inhibition was greatest for the GC 106 hydrolysate for both wet- and dry-milled corn germ. Denaturing the protein with urea before hydrolysis, in general, increased the amount of ACE-inhibitory peptides found in the hydrolysate. Membrane fractionations of both the wet- and dry-milled hydrolysates indicated that most of the ACE-inhibitory peptides were in the <1 kDa fraction. Examination of the control total protein extracts (before treatment with proteases) from wet- and dry-milled germ revealed that neither had ACE-inhibitory properties. However, when both total corn germ control protein extracts were fractionated, the <1 kDa fraction of wet-milled corn germ proteins exhibited ACE inhibition, whereas the comparable low molecular weight fraction from dry-milled corn germ did not.  相似文献

Gastrointestinal digestion is of major importance in the bioavailability of angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides, bioactive peptides with possible antihypertensive effects. In this study, the conditions of in vitro gastrointestinal digestion leading to the formation and degradation of ACE inhibitory peptides were investigated for pea and whey protein. In batch experiments, the digestion simulating the physiological conditions sufficed to achieve the highest ACE inhibitory activity, with IC(50) values of 0.076 mg/mL for pea and 0.048 mg/mL for whey protein. The degree of proteolysis did not correlate with the ACE inhibitory activity and was always higher for pea than whey. In a semicontinuous model of gastrointestinal digestion, response surface methodology studied the influence of temperature and incubation time in both the stomach and small intestine phases on the ACE inhibitory activity and degree of proteolysis. For pea protein, a linear model for the degree of proteolysis and a quadratic model for the ACE inhibitory activity could be constituted. Within the model, a maximal degree of proteolysis was observed at the highest temperature and the longest incubation time in the small intestine phase, while maximal ACE inhibitory activity was obtained at the longest incubation times in the stomach and small intestine phase. These results show that ACE inhibitory activity of pea and whey hydrolysates can be controlled by the conditions of in vitro gastrointestinal digestion.  相似文献

Food-derived bioactive peptides with ACE-inhibitory properties are receiving special attention due to their beneficial effects in the treatment of hypertension. In this work we evaluate the impact of a simulated gastrointestinal digestion on the stability and activity of two bioactive peptides that derive from ovalbumin by enzymatic hydrolysis, YAEERYPIL and RADHPFL. These peptides possess in vitro ACE-inhibitory activity and antihypertensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The results showed that YAEERYPIL and RADHPFL were susceptible to proteolytic degradation after incubation with pepsin and a pancreatic extract. In addition, their ACE-inhibitory activity in vitro decreased after the simulated digestion. The antihypertensive activity on SHR of the end products of the gastrointestinal hydrolysis, YAEER, YPI, and RADHP, was evaluated. The fragments YPI and RADHP significantly decreased blood pressure, 2 h after administration, at doses of 2 mg/kg, but they probably did not exert their antihypertensive effect through an ACE-inhibitory mechanism. It is likely that RADHP is also the active end product of the gastrointestinal digestion of the antihypertensive peptides FRADHPFL (ovokinin) and RADHPF (ovokinin 2-7).  相似文献

In this study, we have identified novel antihypertensive peptides derived from egg-white proteins. The sequences YRGGLEPINF and ESIINF produced an acute blood-pressure-lowering effect in spontaneously hypertensive rats upon a single oral administration. Our results suggest that the antihypertensive action could be attributed to a vascular-relaxing mechanism that would occur in vivo independently of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition, because neither these peptides nor their main digestion fragments, except for the dipeptide YR, acted as ACE inhibitors in vitro. The vasodilator and antihypertensive activity of the sequences ESI and NF would explain the blood-pressure-lowering effect of ESIINF. With regard to YRGGLEPINF, in addition to NF, YR appeared as the main fragment responsible for its activity. The dipeptide YR, named kyotorphin and previously identified as an endogenous analgesic neuropeptide in the central nervous system, showed strong vasodilator and antihypertensive properties. The structure-activity features of the vasodilator peptides are discussed.  相似文献

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), playing a crucial role in the renin angiotensin aldosterone system, is well-known to catalyze the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I into the physiologically active octapeptide angiotensin II, triggering blood pressure increasing mechanisms. To meet the demand for natural phytochemicals as antihypertensive agents in functional food development, extracts prepared from a series of vegetables were screened for their ACE-inhibitory activity by means of a LC-MS/MS-based in vitro assay. By far the highest ACE inhibition was found for a lettuce extract, in which the most active compound was located by means of activity-guided fractionation. LC-MS, NMR spectroscopy, and hydrolysis experiments followed by ion chromatography led to the unequivocal identification of the ACE inhibitor as the previously not reported (S)-malic acid 1'-O-β-gentiobioside. This glycoside represents a novel class of ACE-inhibiting phytochemicals with a low IC(50) value of 27.8 μM. First incubation experiments in saliva and aqueous hydrochloric acid demonstrated the stability of (S)-malic acid 1'-O-β-gentiobioside against salivary glycosidases and stomach acid.  相似文献

This study aimed to determine the antihypertensive and metabolic effects of an aqueous extract of Monascus purpureus M9011 on fructose-induced hypertensive rats. After dietary feeding of fructose for 2 weeks, the rats exhibited significantly higher systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and plasma insulin and triglyceride levels, but lower insulin sensitivity than those in control rats on regular diet. The intragastric loading of fructose-fed rats with M9011 containing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA, 1 mg.kg(-)(1).day(-)(1)) prevented the development of fructose-induced hypertension. After fructose-induced hypertension had been established, intragastric loading of M9011 reversed the elevated blood pressure to normal level. Administration of pure GABA at the same dose as that contained in M9011 failed to prevent or reverse hypertension due to fructose consumption. Chronic M9011 treatment significantly suppressed the fructose-induced elevation in total cholesterol levels and enhanced the recovery of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol/total cholesterol ratio. However, M9011 treatment did not alter insulin sensitivity or the plasma levels of insulin, glucose, and triglyceride in fructose-fed and control rats. The present results suggest that M9011 is a novel, potent, food-based antihypertensive agent with the capability to improve long-term control of cholesterol metabolism in rats and may be of importance in clinical application for the hypertensive diabetic population.  相似文献

A database consisting of 168 dipeptides and 140 tripeptides was constructed from published literature to study the quantitative structure--activity relationships of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides. Two models were computed using partial least squares regression based on the three z-scores of 20 coded amino acids and further validated by cross-validation and permutation tests. The two-component model could explain 73.2% of the Y-variance (inhibitor concentration that reduced enzyme activity by 50%, IC50) with the predictive ability of 71.1% for dipeptides, while the single-component model could explain 47.1% of the Y-variance with the predictive ability of 43.3% for tripeptides. Amino acid residues with bulky side chains as well as hydrophobic side chains were preferred for dipeptides. For tripeptides, the most favorable residues for the carboxyl terminus were aromatic amino acids, while positively charged amino acids were preferred for the middle position, and hydrophobic amino acids were preferred for the amino terminus. According to the models, the IC50 values of seven new peptides with matchable primary sequences within pea protein, bovine milk protein, and soybean were predicted. The predicted peptides were synthesized, and their IC50 values were validated through laboratory determination of inhibition of ACE activity.  相似文献
