Angiotensin-I converting enzyme inhibitory and antioxidant activities of peptide fractions extracted by ultrafiltration of cowpea Vigna unguiculata hydrolysates
TL;DR: In this article, the angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE-I) inhibitory and antioxidant activities for hydrolysates produced by hydrolyzing Vigna unguiculata protein extract as well as ultrafiltered peptide fractions from these peptates were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of ultra-processed diet on gut microbiota and thus its role in neurodegenerative diseases.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the relationship and effect of the current feeding pattern, with the dysregulation of the microbiota and its influence on the development of cognitive decline, highlighting the importance of a search for stricter public health strategies regarding access to and development of ultra-processed foods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyphenols, Ascorbic Acid and Carotenoids Contents and Antioxidant Properties of Habanero Pepper (Capsicum chinense) Fruit
Maira Rubi Segura Campos,Karen Ramírez Gómez,Yolanda Beatriz Moguel Ordoñez,David Betancur Ancona +3 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed seven Capsicum chinense Jacq. var. habanero genotypes grown in Yucatan, Mexico, to quantify their phenolic compounds, carotenoids and ascorbic acid contents, and to measure their free radical scavenging (ABTS) and antioxidant activities (β-carotene/linoleic acid assay).
Journal ArticleDOI
Angiotensin I-Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Peptides of Chia (Salvia hispanica) Produced by Enzymatic Hydrolysis
TL;DR: The results point out the possibility of obtaining bioactive peptides from chia proteins by means of a controlled protein hydrolysis using Alcalase-Flavourzyme sequentional system.
Journal ArticleDOI
ACE inhibitory, hypotensive and antioxidant peptide fractions from Mucuna pruriens proteins
Francisco Herrera Chalé,Jorge Carlos Ruiz Ruiz,Juan José Acevedo Fernández,David Betancur Ancona,Maira Rubi Segura Campos +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the peptide fraction obtained from Mucuna pruriens protein concentrate was studied for their ACE inhibitory, hypotensive, and antioxidant activities, and pepsin-pancreatin (HPP) was the most active with an ACE IC50 value of 19.5μg/mL, a Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) value of 102.8mM/mg and a ferric reducing power (FRP) IC50 of 67.2m
