This comprehensive review explores the biological functions of seed proteins and peptides, highlighting their significant potential for health and therapeutic applications. This review delves into the mechanisms through which perilla peptides combat oxidative stress and protect cells from oxidative damage, encompassing free radical scavenging, metal chelating, in vivo antioxidant, and cytoprotective activities. Perilla peptides exhibit robust anti-aging properties by activating the Nrf2 pathway, enhancing cellular antioxidant capacity, and supporting skin health through the promotion of keratinocyte growth, maintenance of collagen integrity, and reduction in senescent cells.

The experiment was designed to explore the effects and mechanism of Dilong on alleviating cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced brain injury in mice. Fifty male SPF Kunming mice aged 6-8 weeks were randomly divided into five groups: Group A served as the control group; Group B received intraperitoneal injection of CTX; Groups C, D, and E were administered Dilong at doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg respectively for 14 days after intraperitoneal injection of CTX. Results showed that after modeling, the movement speed of mice significantly decreased (P < 0.

Background: Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a refractory disease that severely affects female fertility. The PERK/eIF-2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway is one of the classical pathways involved in the unfolded protein response to endoplasmic reticulum stress by regulating protein synthesis and promoting apoptosis. This study aimed to investigate the functional role and mechanism of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) in the POI animal model through the PERK/eIF-2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway.
