Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of preparation and application of plant polypeptides, specifically to a method for preparing and applying an anti-inflammatory active peptide from red kidney beans. Background Technology
[0002] Red kidney beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), a herbaceous plant belonging to the genus *Phaseolus* of the legume family, are scientifically known as *Phaseolus vulgaris*. They are rich in potassium, amino acids, and dietary fiber, making them highly nutritious. In traditional Chinese medicine, red kidney beans are considered sweet and neutral in nature, warming the middle and lower body, benefiting the intestines and stomach, stopping hiccups, and tonifying the kidneys and replenishing vital energy. The shell, seeds, and roots of red kidney beans can all be used medicinally, possessing significant medicinal value. Modern medical research indicates that red kidney beans are a high-potassium, high-magnesium, and low-sodium food, making them particularly suitable for patients with heart disease, arteriosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, and hypokalemia. Red kidney beans contain urease, various globulins, and albumin, which can enhance immunity, improve skin metabolism, and also have weight-loss, lipid-lowering, and digestive benefits. The saponins in red kidney beans can relieve joint pain and neuralgia, and have significant anti-inflammatory effects.
[0003] Inflammation is the body's defensive response to external stimuli. When inflammation is activated regularly over a certain period of time, it is beneficial to the body. However, when excessive inflammation occurs, it can cause various serious diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes.
[0004] With the development of society and the economy, people's living standards have also improved, gradually shifting from simply having enough to eat to eating well, and healthy eating has become the mainstream of the times. Food-derived anti-inflammatory peptides have become a research hotspot due to their high safety and easy absorption. To date, the chemical and pharmacological research on red kidney bean anti-inflammatory peptides both domestically and internationally is not systematic or in-depth, and there are relatively few research reports on anti-inflammatory bioactive peptides from red kidney beans.

[0042] Effects of Red Kidney Bean Anti-inflammatory Active Peptides on RAW264.7 Cell Survival
[0043] RAW264.7 cells in logarithmic growth phase were subjected to a 1×10⁻⁶ thiocyanate incubation. 4Each sample was transferred to a 96-well plate. After incubation at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 hours, the red kidney bean anti-inflammatory active peptide from Example 1 was added to each well to a final concentration of 25 μg / mL, 50 μg / mL, 100 μg / mL, and 200 μg / mL, with six replicates for each concentration. A medium containing the same volume of Tris-HCl buffer was used as a control. After 24 hours of incubation, 20 μL of MTT solution (5 mg / mL) was added to each well, and incubation continued for another 4 hours before termination. The culture supernatant was carefully aspirated from each well, and 150 μL of LDMSO was added to each well. The plates were shaken for 10 minutes to fully dissolve any crystals. The absorbance of each well was measured at 570 nm using a microplate reader.
[0044] Figure 1 The results showed that the anti-inflammatory active peptides of red kidney beans had no significant effect on the growth of RAW264.7 cells.

[0046] Analysis of the anti-inflammatory activity of red kidney bean anti-inflammatory peptides
[0047] RAW264.7 cells in logarithmic growth phase were subjected to a 1×10⁻⁶ thiocyanate incubation. 5 Each well was transferred to a 30 mm dish. After incubation at 37°C in a 5% CO2 incubator for 24 h, the red kidney bean anti-inflammatory active peptide from Example 1 was added to final concentrations of 25 μg / mL, 50 μg / mL, 100 μg / mL, and 200 μg / mL, respectively. After 4 h, LPS was added to a final concentration of 0.5 μg / mL. Each concentration was tested in triplicate, and culture medium containing the same volume of Tris-HCl buffer was used as a control. After 18 h of incubation, the supernatant was collected, and the NO content was detected using the Griess method. Specifically, 25 μL of supernatant was added to each well with 25 μL of Griess I and 25 μL of Griess II, and the absorbance of each well was measured at 540 nm using a microplate reader. The NO concentration was calculated based on the standard curve.
