Bovine lactoferrin pepsin hydrolysate exerts inhibitory effect on angiotensin I-converting enzyme-dependent vasoconstriction

2007

Abstract The inhibitory effect of a pepsin hydrolysate of bovine lactoferrin (LFH) on angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) has been examined using in vitro and ex vivo functional assays. In vitro assays showed a LFH inhibitory effect on ACE activity with an IC 50 value of 0.95±0.06 mg mL −1 . Ex vivo functional assays using rabbit carotid artery segments showed a LFH inhibitory effect on ACE-dependent angiotensin I-induced contraction, but not on angiotensin II-induced contraction, suggesting that the effect of LFH is not due to antagonism of receptors for angiotensin II. LFH was shown to possess ACE inhibitory effect with potential to modulate hypertension, although the possible inhibitor…

Omega-3 PUFAs and gut microbiota: A preventive approach for colorectal cancer

2021

The influence of diet on the composition of the intestinal microbiota and related pathologies has been known for some time. Some classes of nutrients, such as fatty acids belonging to the omega 3 series, have particular effects on the bacteria that make up the intestinal microbiota. ω-3 PUFAs affect the gut microbiota in three different ways: by modulating the type and abundance of intestinal bacteria, by regulate SCFAs levels, and by alter the levels of proinflammatory mediators. Through these modalities, ω-3 PUFAs could be useful for the prevention of intestinal diseases such as Colorectal Cancer (CRC). The ability of ω-3 PUFAs to modulate the intestinal inflammatory response, to preserve…

Zum Tryptophanabbau bei Cordyceps militaris-Stämmen in saprophytischen Kulturen

1973

Summary The degradation of tryptophan in two strains of the Cordyceps miliraris Link in saprophytic culture was examined: both fungi showed different behavior patterns. In the strain I all the tryptophan is subject to lateral catenoid oxidation and the metabolite of this catabolism process are fixed. In strain II under identical experimental conditions the tryptophan is decomposed by the “Ehrlich-mechanism”. Independently of the above, N-acetylization reactions occur in both strains. Here both the L-isomers and the D-isomers of tryptophan are metabolized. Both isomers can be acetylized.

Carbohydrates in Jerusalem artichoke powder suspension

2007

Purpose – The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of temperature and action time on the extraction rate of carbohydrates of Jerusalem artichoke concentrate powder and inactivation of inulin during boiling and sterilization.Design/methodology/approach – Water suspension of Jerusalem artichoke concentrate (5g/100ml) at 25, 50 and 100○C was tested after 5, 15, 30 and 60min to determine the content of inulin, glucose, fructose and sucrose and evaluate the extraction rate. The stability of inulin was studied after boiling and sterilization at 120○C during 1, 2 and 3h. The extraction rate was evaluated by Fourier‐Transform Infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy as well.Findings – It was shown …

Zum Abbau von 14C-markierter �pfels�ure durch Bacterium gracile

1962

Der Apfelsaureabbau durch B. gracile wird mit Hilfe 14C-markierter Sauren quantitativ untersucht. Die nach dem Abbau wiedergefundene Aktivitat in Restapfelsaure, Milchsaure und Kohlendioxyd betragt zusammen 96–97% der Aktivitat der eingesetzten dl-Apfelsaure-[1,4-14C2]. Die molaren Verhaltnisse von abgebauter Apfelsaure zu Milchsaure und Kohlendioxyd sind 1:1:0,9. Ein Weiterabbau der Apfelsaure uber Milchsaure hinaus ist zu verneinen, da in diesem Fall mehr Kohlendioxyd entstehen muste als dem Verhaltnis 1:1:1 entsprache. D-Apfelsaure und Fumarsaure werden von den Bakterien ebenfalls dissimiliert, Milchsaure wird nicht angegriffen. Citronensaure-[1,5-14C2] wird sehr langsam abgebaut; als ei…

Malic-Enzym-Synthese und pH-Adaptation bei L-�pfels�ure abbauenden Bakterien

1968

Es wird die Malic-Enzym-Synthese bei sechs verschiedenen Arten L-Apfelsaure abbauender Bakterien untersucht. Die homofermentativen Arten bilden unter den gepruften Bedingungen ausschlieslich ein adaptives Malic-Enzym, wahrend die Synthese bei den heterofermentativen in Abhangigkeit vom Zuchtungsmilieu adaptiv oder konstitutiv erfolgen kann. Beim konstitutiven Malic-Enzym ist der sonst positive Glucose-Effekt auf Aktivitat und Induktion nicht festzustellen, wie Versuche mit Enzymlosungen ergeben haben. Die pH-Maxima der Apfelsaureabbau-Aktivitat der intakten Bakterien verschieben sich bei Gewohnung der Zellen an hohere H+-Ionen-Konzentrationen im kunstlichen und naturlichen Milieu zu tiefer …
