Anti-Cancer Activity of Maize Bioactive Peptides
Cancer is one of the main chronic degenerative diseases worldwide. In recent years, consumption of whole-grain cereals and their derivative food products has been associated with a reduced risk of various types of cancer. The main biomolecules in cereals include proteins, peptides, and amino acids, all of which are present in different quantities within the grain. Some of these peptides possess...
متن کاملBioactive Peptides
The increased consumer awareness of the health promoting effects of functional foods and nutraceuticals is the driving force of the functional food and nutraceutical market. Bioactive peptides are known for their high tissue affinity, specificity and efficiency in promoting health. For this reason, the search for food-derived bioactive peptides has increased exponentially. Over the years, many ...
متن کاملEffect of Different Levels of Cottonseed Meal Bioactive Peptides on Production Efficiency and Serum Antioxidant Activity of Broiler Chickens
Cottonseed meal was hydrolyzed using five types of enzymes: alkalase, chymotrypsin, pepsin, trypsin, and pancreatin. The experiment was carried out using 240 male broilers of Ross 308 strain in a completely randomized design with 4 treatments and 5 replications from 1 to 35 days of age and during the starter (1-15 days) and grower (16-35 days) phases. The experimental diets were the control die...
متن کاملAnti-tumoral activity of human salivary peptides.
Chemotherapy continues to be the standard treatment for advanced or metastasized cancer. However, commonly used chemotherapeutic agents may induce damage in healthy cells and tissues. Thus, in recent years, there has been an increased focus on the development of new, efficient anticancer drugs exhibiting low toxicity and that are not affected by mechanisms of chemoresistance. In the present wor...
متن کاملBioactive Peptides: A Review
Bioactive peptides have been defined as specific protein fragments that have a positive impact on body functions and conditions and may ultimately influence health [79]. According to Fitzgerald & Murray [46], bioactive peptides have been defined as peptides with hormoneor drug like activity that eventually modulate physiological function through binding interactions to specific receptors on tar...
