Abstract
Grifola frondosa, a high-protein edible mushroom, exhibited potential antihypertensive effects through ACE inhibition. The ACE was expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and transported via exosomes. This study prepared low molecular weight GFP through enzymatic hydrolysis, showing strong ACE inhibition. Ang II increased ACE expression and activity in VSMCs, inducing phenotype switching by up-regulating α-SMA and OPN. GFP reduced Ang II’s stimulating effects. Exosomes from Ang II-treated (Ang II-Exos) or GFP-treated (GFP-Exos) VSMCs had particle sizes under 200 nm with positive biomarkers CD63 and Tsg101. Co-culture experiments revealed higher ACE loading in Ang II-Exos than in VSMCs, but significantly lower in GFP-Exos. Ang II-Exos promoted VSMC proliferation, migration, inflammation, and phenotypic switching, while GFP-Exos significantly reduced these effects by inhibiting ACE activity and regulating the NF-κB pathway. GFP effectively mitigated Ang II-induced VSMC dysfunction by modulating exosome-mediated ACE loading and phenotypic transformation.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Foods continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal will keep its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.
The Journal of Functional Foods aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients.
The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food technology, nutrition and health welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal will cover the fields of plant bioactives; dietary fibre, probiotics; functional lipids; bioactive peptides; vitamins, minerals and botanicals and other dietary supplements. Nutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and nutritional needs in pathological subjects.
