Abstract
- The potent antioxidant and anti-hypertension activities have evidenced gastric enzymatic hydrolysates from flounder fish and their derived peptides. However, peptide composition and functional effect in various enzymatic hydrolysates differ by enzyme types, hydrolyzed times temperatures, etc. Therefore, we determined potential anti-hypertensive effect of hydrolysates produced from flounder fish using commercial enzymes such as Protamex, Flavourzyme, and Kojizyme which are common food grade proteases and characterized on its derived peptides. In this study, Protamex-mediated hydrolysate showed a more potent anti-hypertension effect than other commercial enzymes. Protamex-mediated hydrolysate was fractionated into three ranges of molecular weight (above 10 kDa (FPH-I), 5-10 kDa (FPH-II), and below 5 kDa (FPH-III)). The FPH-III exhibited the strongest anti-hypertensive effect, and it was revealed that three active peptides, valine-phenylalanine-serine-glycinetryptophan-alanine-alanine (VFSGWAA), leucine-histidine-phenylalanine (LHF) and tryptophan-proline-tryptophan (WPW) were contained. The activities were confirmed via angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition and molecular docking simulation. Among the three peptides, LHF and WPW have a molecular structure stability against the gastrointestinal digestion. LHF showed a significant anti-hypertension effect at 9 h after oral administration in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Therefore, we suggest that Protamex-mediated hydrolysate would be an excellent anti-hypertensive agent due to the existence of stabilized functional peptides, including LHF and WPW.
