Anti-Fatigue Action of Peptides and Amino Acids Derived from Oyster on Healthy Subjects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is one of the important aquatic resources for Japanese, and it has a long history as food. In terms of the quantity of production, Japan is the third, following China and Korea [1]. As the oyster meat contains a plenty of nutrient components, it has been utilized as the health food in addition to food. Peptides contained in oyster meat extract powder have been paid attention as a functional constituent, and its efficacies on animal models with hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperglycemia are reported [2,3]. In addition, there are several reports describing an anti-HIV effect of oyster meat-derived peptides and effects of zinc contained in the oyster meat on dermatological symptoms including pruritus and acomia [4-6].

Introduction: The study of the effects of synthetic peptides with antibacterial properties can provide more effective antibiotics. This study designed, expressed, and investigated the Sushi 3 tetramer peptide. Subsequently, it was compared in terms of changing antibacterial properties with another Sushi3 tetramer peptide the aspartic acid and proline amino acids of which were replaced with glyc...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Peptides Derived from Milk: A Review
Milk proteins provide a natural source of bioactive peptides with potential health benefits and applications in the food industry. The release of these peptides from milk proteins is achieved either by hydrolysis using digestive proteases or by lactic acid bacteria fermentation. Peptides, particularly those derived from milk proteins, can exert a wide range of nutritional, functional and biolog...
متن کاملIdentification and Molecular Characterization of Molluskin, a Histone-H2A-Derived Antimicrobial Peptide from Molluscs
Antimicrobial peptides are humoral innate immune components of molluscs that provide protection against pathogenic microorganisms. Among these, histone-H2A-derived antimicrobial peptides are known to actively participate in host defense responses of molluscs. Present study deals with identification of putative antimicrobial sequences from the histone-H2A of back-water oyster Crassostrea madrase...

The aim of the present research is to investigate the profile of amino acid of Chlorella vulgaris supplemented with some plant amino acid and oil extracts. The bioactive oil and amino acid from four Iranian medicinal plants, namely Oliveria decumbens, Thymus kotschyanus, Trachyspermum ammi, and Zataria multiflora were obtained. The LC-MS / MS analysis demonstrated that the major amino acids com...
متن کاملStructural-functional studies of peptides derived from a long-chain snake neurotoxin Naja naja oxiana
Introduction: The design and structural characterization of mini-proteins with a compact, folded structure provide insight into the complex architecture of proteins today and has long been a challenging issue in structural- functional studies. Alpha neurotoxins from snake venom have a distinct folded structure comprised of a disulphide core and three loops or “fingers” each of these loops are c...
