Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of polypeptides, and specifically to a soybean antihypertensive peptide and a screening method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Hypertension is a disease characterized by increased blood pressure in the systemic arteries. According to data published by the World Health Organization (WHO), more than one billion people suffer from this disease. Every year, 9.4 million people die from complications of hypertension, accounting for 55% of deaths from cardiovascular diseases. At the same time, hypertension causes at least 45% of deaths from heart disease and 51% of deaths from stroke. In addition, hypertension is closely related to diseases such as aneurysms, renal failure, and arteriosclerosis. Since hypertension has become a very difficult problem facing global health, the prevention and treatment of hypertension is particularly important.

[0070] Ultraviolet spectrophotometry was used for detection, and the specific detection steps were carried out with reference to the kit (Solebao angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity detection kit).

[0071] According to the instructions of the kit, check the reagents, which are reagent 1, reagent 2, reagent 3, and reagent 4, of which reagent 4 is the positive control. Prepare the working solution of reagent 3 according to the steps in the instructions. Take one bottle and add 50uL of distilled water to dissolve it before use. According to the sample volume, prepare the ratio of reagent 3: reagent 1 = 9uL: 1791uL, and prepare it before use.

[0072] The following 6 groups of samples were tested, specifically: <1kD soybean peptide I and 1kD-5kD soybean peptide I, <1kD soybean peptide II and 1kD-5kD soybean peptide II, <1kD soybean III and 1kD-5kD soybean peptide III. Dissolve the above 6 groups of samples into a sample solution with a concentration of 10mg / mL using reagent 1. Add the sample according to the steps in the table below. Before adding the sample, take an appropriate amount of actual reagent 2 according to the sample volume and preheat it at 37℃ for more than 10 minutes. Add the sample in a micro quartz cuvette according to the steps in the table below:

[0073] Table 1 Angiotensin inhibition rate activity test sample addition table

[0074]

[0075]

[0076] After adding the sample, mix thoroughly and measure the absorbance value A at 340 nm after 10 seconds. 1 , quickly place at 37℃ for accurate reaction for 30min, and measure the absorbance value A at 30min10s 2 , respectively denoted as A1 空白1 、A1 空白2 、A1 测定 and A2 空白1 、A2 空白2 、A2 测定 , calculate ΔA 空白 =(A1 空白1 -A2 空白1 )-(A1 空白2 -A2 空白2 ), ΔA 测定 =A1 测定 -A2 测定 Blank tube 1 and Blank tube 2 only need to be done 1-2 times.

[0077] The inhibition rate was calculated according to the following formula (1):

[0078] ACE inhibition rate (%) = (ΔA 空白 -ΔA 测定 )÷ΔA 空白 ×100% (1)

[0079] During the detection process, the concentration of soybean peptides in different examples was 10 mg / mL. Figure 2 The ACE inhibition rate of soybean peptides in different embodiments is shown in the figure. It can be seen from the figure that the ACE inhibition rates of soybean peptides Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ <1KD are 64.80%, 79.22%, and 75.01%, respectively, which are higher than 35.53%, 42.93%, and 38.11% of 1KD-5KD soybean peptides Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ. The results show that the blood pressure lowering effect of soybean peptides is related to the molecular weight of the peptides. Short-chain peptides can better bind to the catalytic active center of ACE, thereby having a higher ACE inhibition rate. That is, soybean peptides with a molecular weight of less than 1000kDa have better ACE inhibition activity.

[0080] Specifically, the ACE inhibition rate of <1KD soybean peptide II is the highest at 79.22%, followed by <1KD soybean peptide III (inhibition rate 75.01%), and then <1KD soybean peptide I (inhibition rate 64.80%). <1KD soybean peptide II is produced by microbial liquid fermentation. The microbial fermentation method uses various enzyme catalysts produced during the growth of microorganisms to hydrolyze the protein in the raw materials and then produce a hydrolysis polypeptide process. This process produces more proteases and more protein cleavage sites. The types of polypeptides produced by microbial fermentation are richer, which can increase the specific cleavage ratio of hydrophobic amino acid residues and expose them at the C-terminus of the polypeptide sequence, thereby enhancing the binding ability of the polypeptide to the catalytic active center of the ACE molecule.

[0081] Experimental Example 2 LC-MS / MS analysis of peptide sequences

[0082] According to the results of Experimental Example 1, mass spectrometry identification was performed on soybean peptide II with the highest ACE inhibition rate <1KD.

[0083] Dissolve the polypeptide sample in Washing buffer (0.1% FA, 2% ACN), transfer the polypeptide sample solution to a 10KD ultrafiltration centrifuge tube, and centrifuge at 12000g for 10 min; desalt the ultrafiltered solution using a C18 desalting column; elute the sample with Elution buffer (0.1% FA, 60% ACN), and transfer the eluted solution to a new EP tube; centrifuge and concentrate the eluted sample to dryness for mass spectrometry analysis.

[0084] After desalting, the sample was centrifuged and dried, then redissolved in 100uL Nano-LC mobile phase A (0.1% formic acid / water) and loaded into a bottle for online LCMS analysis. The dissolved sample was loaded onto a nanoViper C18 pre-column (3μm, ), and then 20ul volume was used for washing and desalting. The liquid phase was Easy nLC 1200 nanoliter liquid phase system (ThermoFisher, USA). The sample was desalted and retained on the pre-column and then separated by the analytical column. The analytical column specification was C18 reverse phase chromatography column (AcclaimPepMap RSLC, 75μm×25cm C18-2μm ), the gradient used in the experiment was that the mobile phase B (80% acetonitrile, 0.1% formic acid) increased from 5% to 38% within 30 min. The mass spectrometer used the ThermoFisher Q Exactive system (ThermoFisher, USA) combined with the nanospray Nano Flex ion source (ThermoFisher, USA), the spray voltage was 1.9 kV, and the ion transfer tube heating temperature was 275 ° C. The mass spectrometer scanning mode was in the information-dependent acquisition working mode (DDA, Data Dependent Analysis), the primary mass spectrometer scanning resolution was 70000, the scanning range was 100-1500 m / z, and the maximum injection time was 100 ms. A maximum of 20 charges of 1 were collected in each DDA cycle. + To 3 + The secondary spectrum of the mass spectrometer was obtained, and the maximum injection time of the secondary mass spectrometer ions was 50 ms. The collision chamber energy (high energy collision induced dissociation, HCD) was set to 28 eV, applicable to all precursor ions, and the dynamic exclusion was set to 6 seconds. The original raw spectrum files collected by mass spectrometry were processed and searched using PEAKS Studio 8.5 (Bioinformatics Solutions Inc. Waterloo, Canada) software. The database was the target species protein database downloaded by Uniprot, and the search parameters were set as follows: the mass tolerance of the primary mass spectrometer was 10 ppm, and the secondary mass spectrometer was 0.05 Da. The variable modifications were Oxidation (M), Acetylation (Protein N-term), Deamidation (NQ), Pyro-glu from E, and Pyro-glu from Q.

[0090] Experimental Example 3 Screening of antihypertensive peptides based on molecular docking technology

[0091] First, the peptides identified by LC-MS / MS were preliminarily screened according to Peptide Ranker, and peptides with predicted bioactivity scores>0.9 were screened out, and molecular docking was performed with cholesterol esterase. The smaller the "binding_energy" value, the better the docking effect, and the higher the cholesterol-lowering potential. The peptides with predicted bioactivity scores>0.9 are shown in Table 2:

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] The crystal structure of human angiotensin converting enzyme (PDB number: 1O8A) was obtained from the RCSB database (http: / / www.rcsb.org / ). The semi-flexible molecular docking scores of the above peptides with biological activity prediction scores higher than 0.90 and human angiotensin converting enzyme were performed using AutoDock 4.2.6 software as shown in the following table.

[0098] The peptide VFPPPW with the strongest binding ability to human angiotensin converting enzyme was screened out, and the molecular docking diagram is shown in Figure 3 VFPPPW was prepared by Fmoc solid phase synthesis and was designated as soybean antihypertensive peptide 1. The purity of the peptide was determined to be greater than 95% by high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry.

[0099] Experimental Example 4 Different Examples of <1KD Soy Peptide and Soy Antihypertensive Peptide 1 in Vivo Antihypertensive Effects

[0100] Spontaneously hypertensive model rats (SHR), 60, male, 10-12 weeks old, weighing 210-230 g; normotensive rats (WKY), 10, male, 10-12 weeks old, weighing 210-230 g. The temperature of the breeding environment was maintained at (25±1)℃, the humidity was maintained at 55%±5%, the light / dark cycle was 12 hours per day, and the lighting time was from 8:00 am to 20:00 pm. Rats could eat standard feed and tap water at will, and the breeding environment was disinfected regularly. Before the experiment, SHR and WKY had a one-week environmental adaptation period. After the adaptation period, the weight and blood pressure of the rats were measured, and they were divided into different groups according to the measurement results to ensure the uniformity of the baseline data of the rats in each group.

[0101] SHR rats were divided into 6 groups, each with 10 rats, including hypertension model control group, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅰ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅱ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅲ, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW). Blank control group WKY rats were blank control group with 10 rats.

[0102] Table 5 Oral gavage dosage table for each group

[0103] Group <![CDATA[Gavage administration / mg·kg -1 <!-- 11 -->]]> Blank control group An equal volume of saline Hypertension model control group An equal volume of saline <1KD soybean peptide Ⅰ Prepare 500mg / kg by dissolving in normal saline <1KD soybean peptide Ⅱ Prepare 500mg / kg by dissolving in normal saline <1KD soybean peptide Ⅲ Prepare 500mg / kg by dissolving in normal saline Soybean hypotensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW) Prepare 20mg / kg by dissolving in normal saline Positive control group 10 mg / kg captopril

[0104] The rats were fed with a normal diet and given the drug by gavage once a day according to the dosage gavage table for 8 consecutive weeks. The body weight, food intake, blood pressure and heart rate of the rats were collected every week during the experiment.

[0105] When measuring the blood pressure and heart rate of rats, in order to ensure the accuracy of the measured data, the rats to be tested need to be placed in a warm box (37°C) in advance and left to stand for about 15 minutes. After the rats are quiet and their blood pressure is stable, the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate of SHR and WKY rats are monitored using the BP-2006A small animal non-invasive blood pressure meter. The rats are fixed in the heating hood, and a blackout cloth is put on the outer layer of the heating hood to prevent the rats from having a stress response that affects the accuracy of the test data. The rats are placed in the heating hood and covered with a blackout cloth. The temperature of the heating hood is set to 37-39°C to ensure that the tail artery of each rat is fully dilated during the measurement. The sphygmomanometer airbag cuff is put on 3 cm from the tail root of the fixed rat, and the "pulse signal sensor" in the airbag cuff is kept directly above the tail artery. When the sensor shows that the pulse wave is in a stable wave shape, blood pressure measurement begins. The system was connected to a computer, and the test results were recorded using BP98AWU software, recording three to five readings with heart rate changes <10 beats / min and blood pressure changes <20 mmHg, and the measurements were repeated three times for each rat to obtain the average value.

[0106] Each group was observed by gavage for 8 weeks. During the experiment, the animals in each group showed normal growth, development, and activity, and were in good mental state, with no signs of poisoning or death.

[0107] Table 6 Changes in body weight of rats in each group

[0108]

[0109] During the experiment, the animals in each group were active and in good spirits. The weight of the rats in each group increased with the increase of age, and the growth and development were normal. There was no difference in weight between the experimental groups at the same age. <1KD soybean peptides Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ and the screened soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW) are non-toxic and have no side effects, and have no effect on the growth and development of rats.

[0110] Table 7 Systolic blood pressure (SBP) of rats in each group after 8 weeks of intervention

[0111]

[0112]

[0113] Table 7 shows the weekly systolic blood pressure test values ​​of rats in each group. In the 0th week of intervention, the systolic blood pressure of the hypertension model group, <1KD soybean peptide I, <1KD soybean peptide II, <1KD soybean peptide III, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW), and positive control group were significantly higher than those of the blank control group (P < 0.01), and the hypertension model was established.

[0114] After 8 weeks of intervention, compared with the 0th week of each group, the systolic blood pressure of <1KD soybean peptide Ⅰ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅱ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅲ, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW), and the positive control group were significantly reduced, indicating that <1KD soybean peptide and the screened antihypertensive short peptide (VFPPPW) have significant effects on lowering systolic blood pressure in vivo. And <1KD soybean peptide Ⅱ and soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW) have extremely significant differences in systolic blood pressure compared with the 0th week (P < 0.01), which is consistent with the results of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition rate activity test.

[0115] Table 8 Diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of rats in each group after 8 weeks of intervention

[0116]

[0117] Table 8 shows the weekly diastolic blood pressure test values ​​of rats in each group. In the 0th week of intervention, the diastolic blood pressure of the hypertension model group, <1KD soybean peptide I, <1KD soybean peptide II, <1KD soybean peptide III, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW), and positive control group were significantly higher than those of the blank control group (P < 0.01), and the hypertension model was established.

[0118] After 8 weeks of intervention, compared with the 0th week of each group, the diastolic blood pressure of <1KD soybean peptide Ⅰ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅱ, <1KD soybean peptide Ⅲ, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW), and the positive control group were significantly reduced, indicating that <1KD soybean peptide and the screened antihypertensive short peptide (VFPPPW) have significant effects on lowering diastolic blood pressure in vivo. And soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW) has a very significant difference in systolic blood pressure compared with the 0th week (P < 0.01), and the effect is equivalent to that of the positive control group. It shows that the antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW) screened by mass spectrometry identification, activity screening and molecular docking has a significant effect on lowering blood pressure and can be used for the development of antihypertensive drugs.

[0119] Table 9 Heart rate of rats in each group after 8 weeks of intervention

[0120]

[0121] The heart rate of rats is related to blood pressure. Generally speaking, the higher the blood pressure, the higher the heart rate. As shown in Table 9, after 8 weeks of intervention, the heart rates of <1KD soybean peptide I, <1KD soybean peptide II, <1KD soybean peptide III, soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (VFPPPW), and the positive control group were significantly lower than those of the hypertension model control group (P < 0.01), which was consistent with the results of systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

[0122] It can be seen from the above experimental results that the <1KD soybean peptide I, <1KD soybean peptide II, and <1KD soybean peptide III prepared by three preparation methods, namely, nattokinase enzymatic hydrolysis of soybean protein isolate method, Bacillus subtilis liquid fermentation soybean protein hydrolysate method, and Bacillus subtilis solid fermentation soybean method, all have high angiotensin converting enzyme inhibition rate activity, significant antihypertensive effect in vivo, can be used to develop health foods, and the process is simple and controllable, which is conducive to commercial application. The soybean antihypertensive peptide 1 (polypeptide sequence VFPPPW) screened out by mass spectrometry identification and molecular biology methods has an in vivo antihypertensive effect comparable to that of positive drugs, and can be used for the development of antihypertensive drug raw materials. The soybean antihypertensive peptides provided in this application and their preparation methods, as well as the screened single-sequence short peptides, can be used for the development of food, health products and medicines for people with hypertension.
