Article Abstract

Food-derived bioactive peptides are a class of peptides from natural protein. It may have biological effects on the human body and play a significant role in protecting human physiological health and regulating physiological metabolism, such as lowering blood pressure, lowering cholesterol, antioxidant, antibacterial, regulating immune activity, and so on. However, most of the natural food-derived functional peptides need to overcome a variety of barriers in the body to enter the blood circulation system and target to specific tissues to generate physiological activity. During this process, the bioavailability of the functional peptides will be reduced. The nano-delivery system can offer the feasibility to overcome these obstacles and improve the stability and bioavailability of food-derived active peptides by nanoencapsulation. This work summarizes the application of food-derived bioactive peptides and the obstacles during the delivery pathway in vivo. Moreover, the different nano-delivery systems used for bioactive peptides and their application were summarized, which could provide ideas for oral delivery of food-derived bioactive peptides.

Key Laboratory of Brewing Molecular Engineering of China Light Industry, Beijing Technology and Business University, Beijing 100048, China; Key Laboratory of Geriatric Nutrition and Health (Beijing Technology and Business University), Ministry of Education, Beijing 100048, China.

Despite being rich in bioactive compounds, Jiuzao of light flavor Baijiu (LFB) remains an underutilized by-product due to limited systematic characterization of its components and lack of efficient valorization strategies. In this study, widely targeted metabolomics was used to comprehensively analyze the water-soluble metabolites in the enzymatic hydrolysate (JEH) and water extract (JWE) of Jiuzao from LFB, and 1869 metabolites (with 887 novel compounds) were identified, including 128 bioactive compounds from traditional Chinese medicine and 95 functional peptides. JEH exhibited superior anti-glycation and antioxidant activities, with inhibition rates of 66.

Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) is a multifaceted enzyme that orchestrates a variety of physiological and pathological processes, making it a pivotal target in the treatment of several diseases. Notably, the role of DPP-4 extends beyond its well-documented involvement in glucose metabolism and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management, where DPP-4 inhibitors (gliptins) have gained prominence. Emerging evidence highlights its significant functions in immune regulation, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and inflammatory disorders.

This study aimed to explore the potential of garlic proteins for producing multifunctional salty peptides. Three novel salty peptides (SNDPGR, SASDPNF, and ASTCMAR) were identified through simulated hydrolysis and in silico screening. Sensory evaluation and electronic tongue analysis confirmed their potent saltiness, with dose-dependent salt-enhancing effects further validated by the electronic tongue.
