Background: Rapeseed peptide, extracted from rapeseed protein, is known to have a variety of biological activities. In this study, the anti-proliferation effect and molecular mechanism of rapeseed peptide on HepG2 cells were investigated.
Results: In vitro anticancer experiments showed that the rapeseed peptide NDGNQPL could inhibit HepG2 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner [half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC ), 1.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic progressive disease, and its occurrence and development are mediated by cellular senescence. Drugs targeting senescent cells seem like a promising and efficacious strategy for IPF treatment. Previous studies have illustrated that pentoxifylline (PTX) may play a certain role in inhibiting pulmonary fibrosis and combating cellular senescence.

The study aims to investigate the hypotensive activity and stability of MO leaf peptides. MO leaf protein was extracted and then hydrolyzed with Alcalase to produce the MO leaf protein hydrolysate (MOPH).
