Comprehensive Review of Biological Functions and Therapeutic Potential of Perilla Seed Meal Proteins and Peptides.
Foods
December 2024
School of Chemical Engineering and Technology, North University of China, Taiyuan 030051, China.
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.

Chemotherapy, a cornerstone of cancer treatment, is frequently marred by its hepatotoxic effects, which can significantly impede therapeutic efficacy. This systematic review meticulously evaluates the hepatoprotective properties of phytochemicals and plant extracts against chemotherapy-induced liver damage, primarily in experimental animal models. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, an exhaustive search was conducted across databases like SCOPUS, PubMed, and Web of Science, culminating in the inclusion of 61 pertinent studies.

Immunomodulators play a crucial role in maintaining overall health and enhancing the body's defense against various diseases. In Indonesian traditional medicinal practices, meniran (Phyllanthus niruri L.) and temu mangga rhizome (Curcuma mangga Val) are well-regarded for their health benefits and therapeutic properties.

Methods: Participants of the Scleroderma Lung Study II, which compared receiving mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) versus cyclophosphamide (CYC) for treating SSc-ILD, who had blood samples at baseline and 12 months were included. Levels for C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand (CXCL) 4, CCL18, and Krebs von den Lungen (KL)-6 were measured, and a logistic regression model evaluated relationships between changes in these biomarkers and the development of PPF by 24 months.
