The fruiting body of Tricholoma giganteum has many pharmaceutical uses and has long been utilized as a home remedy in Asia. This study describes the extraction and characterization of the first angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide from T. giganteum. The maximum ACE inhibitory activity (IC50: 0.31 mg) was obtained when the fruiting body of T. giganteum was extracted with distilled water at 30 degrees C for 3 h. After the purification of ACE inhibitory peptides with ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, and reverse-phase HPLC, an active fraction with an IC50 of 0.04 mg and a yield of 0.3% was obtained. The ACE inhibitory peptide was a novel tripeptide, showing very low similarity to other ACE inhibitory peptide sequences, and was sequenced as Gly-Glu-Pro. The purified ACE inhibitor from T. giganteum competitively inhibited ACE, and it maintained inhibitory activity even after incubation with proteases. ACE inhibitor from T. giganteum showed a clear antihypertensive effect in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), at a dosage of 1 mg/kg. 相似文献

His-His-Leu (HHL), a tripeptide derived from a Korean soybean paste, is an angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor. We report here a method of producing this tripeptide efficiently by expressing tandem multimers of the codons encoding the peptide in E. coli and purifying the HHL after hydrolysis of the peptide multiners. The HHL gene, tandemly multimerized to a 40-mer, was ligated with ubiquitin as a fusion gene (UH40). UH40 was inserted into vector pET29b; the UH40 fusion protein was then produced in E. coli BL21. The recombinant UH40 protein was purified by cation-exchange chromatography with a yield of 17.3 mg/l and analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry and protein N-terminal sequencing. Leucine aminopeptidase was used to cleave a 405-Da HHL monomer from the UH40 fusion protein and the peptide was purified using reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a C18 HPLC column, with a final yield of 6.2 mg/l. The resulting peptide was confirmed to be HHL with the aid of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, glutamine-TOF mass spectrometry, N-terminal sequencing, and measurement of ACE inhibiting activity. These results suggest that our production method is useful for obtaining a large quantity of recombinant HHL for functional antihypertensive peptide studies. 相似文献

Angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide was isolated from the marine rotifer, Brachionus rotundiformis. ACE inhibitory peptides were separated from rotifer hydrolysate prepared by Alcalase, α-chymotrypsin, Neutrase, papain, and trypsin. The Alcalase hydrolysate had the highest ACE inhibitory activity compared to the other hydrolysates. The IC50 value of Alcalase hydrolysate for ACE inhibitory activity was 0.63 mg/ml. We attempted to isolate ACE inhibitory peptides from Alcalase prepared rotifer hydrolysate using gel filtration on a Sephadex G-25 column and high performance liquid chromatography on an ODS column. The IC50 value of purified ACE inhibitory peptide was 9.64 μM, and Lineweaver–Burk plots suggest that the peptide purified from rotifer protein acts as a competitive inhibitor against ACE. Amino acid sequence of the peptide was identified as Asp-Asp-Thr-Gly-His-Asp-Phe-Glu-Asp-Thr-Gly-Glu-Ala-Met, with a molecular weight 1538 Da. The results of this study suggest that peptides derived from rotifers may be beneficial as anti-hypertension compounds in functional foods resource. 相似文献

This study describes the extraction and characterization of a platelet aggregation inhibitory peptide from Inonotus obliquus. Ethanol extract from I. obliquus ASI 74006 mycelia showed the highest platelet aggregation inhibitory activity (81.2%). The maximum platelet aggregation inhibitory activity was found when the mycelia of I. obliquus ASI 74006 was extracted with ethanol at 80 degrees C for 12 h. The platelet aggregation inhibitor was purified by systematic solvent fractionation, ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-10 column chromatography, and reverse-phase HPLC. The purified platelet aggregation inhibitor is a novel tripeptide with a molecular mass of 365 Da, having a sequence of Trp-Gly-Cys. The purified platelet aggregation inhibitor also showed high platelet aggregation inhibitory activity in Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice. 相似文献

In 3T3-L1 fibroblasts, Ras proteins mediate both insulin-induced differentiation to adipocytes and its activation of cytosolic serine/threonine kinases, including Raf-1 kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and Rsk. Here, we report that insulin- and Ras-induced activation of MAPK is not required for the differentiation process and in fact antagonizes it. The treatment of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes with MEK-specific inhibitor PD98059 blocked insulin- and Ras-induced MAPK activation but had no effect on or slightly enhanced adipocytic differentiation. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), an inhibitor of insulin-stimulated adipogenesis, activated MAPK in 3T3-L1 cells. PD98059 treatment blocked MAPK activation by TNF-alpha and reversed the blockade of adipogenesis mediated by low (1 ng/ml) TNF-alpha concentrations. 3T3-L1 transfectants containing hyperactivated MEK1 or overexpressed MAPK displayed impaired adipocytic differentiation. PD98059 treatment also reversed the blockade of differentiation in MEK1 transfectants. These results indicate that MAPK does not promote but can contribute to inhibition of the process of adipocytic differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. 相似文献

Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide was isolated from the Styela clava flesh tissue. Nine proteases (Protamex, Kojizyme, Neutrase, Flavourzyme, Alcalase, pepsin, trypsin, α-chymotrypsin and papain) were used, and their respective enzymatic hydrolysates and an aqueous extract were screened to evaluate their potential ACE inhibitory activity. Among all of the test samples, Protamex hydrolysate possessed the highest ACE inhibitory activity, and the Protamex hydrolysate of flesh tissue showed relatively higher ACE inhibitory activity compared with the Protamex hydrolysate of tunic tissue. We attempted to isolate ACE inhibitory peptide from the Protamex hydrolysate of S. clava flesh tissue using ultrafiltration, gel filtration on a Sephadex G-25 column and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on an ODS column. The purified ACE inhibitory peptide exhibited an IC50 value of 37.1 μM and was identified as non-competitive inhibitor of ACE. Amino acid sequence of the peptide was identified as Ala-His-Ile-Ile-Ile, with a molecular weight 565.3 Da. The results of this study suggested that the peptides derived from enzymes-assisted extracts of S. clava would be useful new antihypertension compounds in functional food resource. 相似文献

Soft tissue from cultured farm fresh oysters (Crassostrea madrasensis) was subjected to two standard enzymatic peptide extraction procedures using pepsin and papain. The crude extracts obtained were partially purified by column chromatography and were freeze-dried. The hydrolysates obtained were compared with respect to their degree of hydrolysis (DH), antioxidant potential (AP) and total phenolic content (TPC). The hydrolysate showing better antioxidant property was further subjected to purification by high performance liquid chromatography and characterized by LC-MS/MS. Papain-digested oyster protein (OPHpap) hydrolysate showed higher DH, AP and TPC. OPHpap was further subjected to ultrafiltration and fractionated into 3 sizes namely, above 10, 3–10 and 1–3 kDa according to the molecular size. Antioxidant capacity of <3 kDa fraction OPHpap-3 evaluated by DPPH free radical scavenging assay, metal chelating activity, linoleic acid autoxidation assay showed maximum effectiveness. Of the seven fractions collected by purification of OPH-pap-3 on semi-preparative RP-HPLC, fraction 7 that showed the highest antioxidant activity was further characterized by LC-ESI-MS/MS and its sequence determined. An antioxidant peptide molecule with thirteen amino acids was identified in oyster protein hydrolysate obtained by papain digestion that may find application as a nutraceutical or may be utilized in food industry for prevention of rancidity in foods. 相似文献

Extracts of mouse intestine contain a colonic epithelial mitosis inhibitor that has recently been purified and identified as a tripeptide (pGlu-His-GlyOH). In order to elucidate further the biological characteristics of this peptide, the effect of the tripeptide on cell proliferation in a human colon carcinoma cell line (HT 29) was examined. The incorporation of tritiated thymidine was significantly reduced at 20-30 h after addition of the tripeptide. The dose-response relationship was bell-shaped with loss of inhibitory effect at high or low doses. The number of cells were significantly reduced at a peptide concentration of 10(-8) M at 24 h, but not at 48 or 72 h after addition of the peptide. The inhibition was reversible, and was only observed when the cells were grown in a serum-restricted medium (1%). The inhibitory effect was abolished by increasing the serum content to 10% or adding insulin to the medium. 相似文献

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is expressed in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, and its activity increases during adipogenesis. The purpose of this study was to determine whether ALP activity could be used as a measure of intracellular lipid accumulation in human preadipocytes and 3T3-L1 cells and which of the factors that induce adipogenesis are responsible for stimulating ALP activity. Adipogenesis was initiated in 3T3-L1 cells by incubation with differentiation medium containing insulin, dexamethasone, and 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine. The effect of leaving out each of the differentiation medium components was studied. Adipogenesis was also assessed in human preadipocytes and 3T3-L1 cells in the presence of the ALP inhibitor histidine. ALP activity was measured using an automated colorimetric assay and intracellular lipid accumulation was measured using the lipid-specific dye oil red O. Removal of insulin or dexamethasone from the differentiation medium had little effect on either ALP activity or lipid accumulation in 3T3-L1 cells, while removal of IBMX blocked both. Histidine inhibited ALP activity and adipogenesis in human preadipocytes and 3T3-L1 cells. Pearson univariate correlation analysis demonstrated strong correlations between ALP activity and lipid accumulation in human preadipocytes (r=0.78, n=69) and in 3T3-L1 cells (r=0.92, n=27). These data suggest that ALP and fat storage are tightly linked during preadipocyte maturation and that the measurement of ALP activity may be a novel technique for the quantification of intracellular lipid accumulation that is more sensitive and rapid than currently used methods. 相似文献

We report here that octanoate, a medium chain fatty acid, induces adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells by co-treatment with dexamethasone, although octanoate has been known not to stimulate 3T3-L1 adipogenesis. A low concentration of exogenous glucose prevented 3T3-L1 adipogenesis induced by 1-methyl 3-isobutylxanthine, dexamethasone, and insulin (MDI) treatment (a common protocol for adipocyte differentiation). In contrast, co-treatment with dexamethasone and octanoate (D-OCT) induced adipogenesis under the same conditions. These findings imply that octanoate, rather than glucose, is the source of accumulated lipids in D-OCT-induced adipogenesis. D-OCT increased expression of the differentiation markers peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma2 and caveolin-1. A specific inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase inhibited D-OCT-induced adipogenesis. These results suggest that the p38 MAP kinase pathway followed by up-regulation of PPARgamma2 may be involved in 3T3-L1 adipocyte differentiation induced by D-OCT, as well as by MDI. 相似文献

Regulation of Wnt signaling during adipogenesis 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17

We have identified Wnt10b as a potent inhibitor of adipogenesis that must be suppressed for preadipocytes to differentiate in vitro. Here, we demonstrate that a specific inhibitor of glycogen synthase kinase 3, CHIR 99021, mimics Wnt signaling in preadipocytes. CHIR 99021 stabilizes free cytosolic beta-catenin and inhibits adipogenesis by blocking induction of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma. Preadipocyte differentiation is inhibited when 3T3-L1 cells are exposed to CHIR 99021 for any 24 h period during the first 3 days of adipogenesis. Consistent with this time frame of inhibition, expression of Wnt10b mRNA is suppressed upon induction of differentiation, with a 50% decline by 6 h and complete inhibition by 36 h. Of the agents used to induce differentiation, exposure of 3T3-L1 cells to methyl-isobutylxanthine or cAMP is sufficient to suppress expression of Wnt10b mRNA. Inhibition of adipogenesis by Wnt10b is likely mediated by Wnt receptors, Frizzled 1, 2, and/or 5, and co-receptors low density lipoprotein receptor-related proteins 5 and 6. These receptors, like Wnt10b, are highly expressed in preadipocytes and stromal vascular cells. Finally, we demonstrate that disruption of extracellular Wnt signaling by expression of secreted Frizzled related proteins causes spontaneous adipocyte conversion. 相似文献

Recombinant adipogenesis inhibitory factor (AGIF) was purified to homogeneity from the conditioned medium of COS-1 cells transfected with human AGIF cDNA. The amino-terminal sequence analysis of the mature AGIF revealed that AGIF was produced as a precursor consisting of 199 amino acids and processed into a mature form of 178 amino acids by a cleavage between Ala(-1) and Pro(+1). The purified AGIF inhibited the process of adipogenesis in mouse 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, indicating that AGIF directly acts on the cells. AGIF acted as an adipogenic antagonist not only on the extramedullary cell line 3T3-L1 but also on the mouse bone marrow stroma-derived cell line H-1/A, suggesting that this cytokine may regulate adipogenesis in bone marrow. 相似文献

Ginsenoside Rb1 promotes adipogenesis in 3T3-L1 cells by enhancing PPARgamma2 and C/EBPalpha gene expression 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Evidence has accumulated that ginseng and its main active constituents, ginsenosides, possess anti-diabetic and insulin-sensitizing properties which may be partly realized by regulating adipocyte development and functions. In the present study, we explored the effect of ginsenoside Rb(1), the most abundant ginsenoside in ginseng root, on adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells. We found that with standard differentiation inducers, ginsenoside Rb(1) facilitated adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes in a dose-dependent manner; 10 microM Rb(1) increased lipid accumulation by about 56%. Treatment of differentiating adipocytes with 10 microM Rb(1) increased the expression of mRNA and protein of PPARgamma(2) and C/EBPalpha, as well as mRNA of ap2, one of their target genes. After the treatment of differentiating adipocytes with Rb(1), basal and insulin-mediated glucose uptake was significantly augmented, accompanied by the up-regulation of mRNA and protein level of GLUT4, but not of GLUT1. In addition, ginsenoside Rb(1) also inhibited the proliferation of preconfluent 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Our data indicate that anti-diabetic and insulin-sensitizing activities of ginsenosides, at least in part, are involved in the enhancing effect on PPARgamma2 and C/EBPalpha expression, hence promoting adipogenesis. 相似文献

The EGF-like protein dlk1 inhibits notch signaling and potentiates adipogenesis of mesenchymal cells
Nueda ML Baladrón V Sánchez-Solana B Ballesteros MA Laborda J 《Journal of molecular biology》2007,367(5):1281-1293
The EGF-like homeotic gene Dlk1 appears to function as an inhibitor of adipogenesis. Overexpression of Dlk1 prevents adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells. Dlk1-deficient mice are obese; however, adipose tissue still develops in Fc-dlk1 transgenic mice, suggesting that Dlk1 is not a strict inhibitor of adipogenesis. To clarify the role of Dlk1 in adipogenesis, we studied whether Dlk1 could act differently on this process depending upon the differentiation state of the precursor cells. We found that Dlk1 is a potentiator of adipogenesis for mesenchymal C3H10T1/2 cells. This potentiating effect can be triggered by overexpressing the entire protein or the extracellular EGF-like-containing region, but not by overexpressing the intracellular dlk1 sequence. In addition, coculture of C3H10T1/2 cells with other cells expressing Dlk1, but not with cells lacking Dlk1 expression, enhances their adipogenic response. Potentiation of adipogenesis by Dlk1 was associated with changes in the activation of ERK1/2 after IGFI/insulin induction. Finally, as reported with other cells, dlk1 functioned as a Notch signaling inhibitor in C3H10T1/2 cells, but inhibition of Notch1 expression prevented the potentiating effects of Dlk1 in adipogenesis. These data suggest that Dlk1 may potentiate or inhibit adipogenesis depending upon the cellular context, and that Notch1 expression and activation are important factors in this context. 相似文献

Polyamines spermidine and spermine are known to be required for mammalian cell proliferation and for embryonic development. Alpha-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) a limiting enzyme of polyamine biosynthesis, depleted the cellular polyamines and prevented triglyceride accumulation and differentiation in 3T3-L1 cells. In this study, to explore the function of polyamines in adipogenesis, we examined the effect of polyamine biosynthesis inhibitors on adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation of 3T3-L1 cells. The spermidine synthase inhibitor trans-4-methylcyclohexylamine (MCHA) increased spermine/spermidine ratios, whereas the spermine synthase inhibitor N-(3-aminopropyl)-cyclohexylamine (APCHA) decreased the ratios in the cells. MCHA was found to decrease lipid accumulation and GPDH activity during differentiation, while APCHA increased lipid accumulation and GPDH activity indicating the enhancement of differentiation. The polyamine-acetylating enzyme, spermidine/spermine N 1-acetyltransferase (SSAT) activity was increased within a few hours after stimulus for differentiation, and was found to be elevated by APCHA. In mature adipocytes APCHA decreased lipid accumulation while MCHA had the opposite effect. An acetylpolyamine oxidase and spermine oxidase inhibitor MDL72527 or an antioxidant N-acetylcysteine prevented the promoting effect of APCHA on adipogenesis. These results suggest that not only spermine/spermidine ratios but also polyamine catabolic enzyme activity may contribute to adipogenesis. 相似文献

Here we show that plasma kallikrein (PKal) mediates a plasminogen (Plg) cascade in adipocyte differentiation. Ecotin, an inhibitor of serine proteases, inhibits cell-shape change, adipocyte-specific gene expression, and lipid accumulation during adipogenesis in culture. Deficiency of Plg, but not of urokinase or tissue-type plasminogen activator, suppresses adipogenesis during differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells and mammary-gland involution. PKal, which is inhibited by ecotin, is required for adipose conversion, Plg activation and 3T3-L1 differentiation. Human plasma lacking PKal does not support differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. PKal is therefore a physiological regulator that acts in the Plg cascade during adipogenesis. We propose that the Plg cascade fosters adipocyte differentiation by degradation of the fibronectin-rich preadipocyte stromal matrix. 相似文献

Peptides inhibiting angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE, EC. 3.4.15.1) are possible cures of hypertension. Food-derived ACE-inhibitory peptides are particularly attractive because of reduced side effects. Previously, we reported ACE-inhibitory activity of grass carp protein hydrolysates. In this work, we report steps for purifying the ACE-inhibitory peptide from the hydrolysate and its biochemical properties. Following steps of ultrafiltration, macroporous adsorption resin, and two steps of reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RE-HPLC), a single Val-Ala-Pro (VAP) tripeptide was identified. The tripeptide with excellent ACE-inhibitory activity (IC(50) value of 0.00534 mg/mL) was a competitive ACE inhibitor and stable against both ACE and gastrointestinal enzymes of pepsin and chymotrypsin. This is the first report of food-derived VAP. The identified unique biochemical properties of VAP may enable the application of grass carp protein hydrolysates as a functional food for treatments of hypertension. The developed purification conditions also allow the production of VAP for pharmaceutical applications. 相似文献
