Abstract
Previously, we have prepared clam peptides (RBPs) that exhibited potential antihypertension and kidney protective effects in SHR rats by fermentation of Ruditapes philippinarum with Bacillus natto. In this study, we established an adenine-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD) in SD rats and investigated the improvement effects of RBPs on CKD. The results showed that compared with the model group, 8 weeks gavage of RBPs restored the structure of the kidney and reduced serum levels of CKD-related biochemical indicators, including NGAL, CR, Ca, UA, TG, IP, L-FABP, BUN, CHO, and cystatin C (p < 0.05). RBPs treatment also reduced serum levels of MDA, IL-1β, TGF-β1, and TNF-α and increased those of CAT and T-AOC (p < 0.05). In addition, the results of intestinal microbiota analysis showed that RBPs improved the intestinal flora composition by downregulating the proportion of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, decreasing the relative abundance of Romboutsia, Ruminococcaceae_UCG-005, and Christensenellaceae_R-7_group and increasing that of Lactobacillus and Muribaculaceae (p < 0.05). The results of this study indicated that RBPs can also be used as bioactive substances in marine drugs or functional foods to alleviate CKD.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Food Biochemistry publishes fully peer-reviewed original research and review papers on the effects of handling, storage, and processing on the biochemical aspects of food tissues, systems, and bioactive compounds in the diet.
Researchers in food science, food technology, biochemistry, and nutrition, particularly based in academia and industry, will find much of great use and interest in the journal. Coverage includes:
-Biochemistry of postharvest/postmortem and processing problems
-Enzyme chemistry and technology
-Membrane biology and chemistry
-Cell biology
-Biophysics
-Genetic expression
-Pharmacological properties of food ingredients with an emphasis on the content of bioactive ingredients in foods
Examples of topics covered in recently-published papers on two topics of current wide interest, nutraceuticals/functional foods and postharvest/postmortem, include the following:
-Bioactive compounds found in foods, such as chocolate and herbs, as they affect serum cholesterol, diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease
-The mechanism of the ripening process in fruit
-The biogenesis of flavor precursors in meat
-How biochemical changes in farm-raised fish are affecting processing and edible quality
