The application discloses an active
peptide for promoting
bone growth, and a preparation method and application thereof. The active
peptide contains
amino acid sequences GPAGPLGPV, LGVPLPL, FLPEPPQEE and SFLPEPPQE, and is derived from an enzymatic product of animal
bone collagen. The average molecular weight of the enzymatic product is 500-1000 Da, and the
mass percentage of components with a molecular weight less than 1000 Da is greater than 60%. The preparation method comprises the following steps: sequentially performing
acid treatment, alkali treatment, extraction,
filtration and
ion exchange on animal bone, and then performing enzymolysis on the animal bone under the action of a
protease to obtain an enzymolysis solution, wherein the
protease is selected from
alkaline protease,
trypsin and
papain; and the enzymolysis solution is separated and purified, wherein the separation and purification comprises
ultrafiltration membrane grading and
chromatographic separation, the
cut-off molecular weight of the
ultrafiltration membrane is 3kDa, and the
chromatographic separation comprises gel
chromatography and reverse-phase
high performance liquid chromatography separation. The low-molecular active
peptide obtained by the application can promote the proliferation and / or differentiation of osteoblasts, improve the
alkaline phosphatase activity, has a small molecular weight and is easy to be absorbed and utilized by the body, has a wide
raw material source, has a simple and controllable preparation process, and has a good application prospect.
