A new affinity gel was synthesized for the purification of xanthine oxidase (XO, EC 1.2.3.22) from bovine milk. The gel was prepared on a Sepharose 4B matrix on which a spacer arm based on l-tyrosine was covalently attached via CNBr activation, followed by reaction with the XO inhibitor p-aminobenzamidine. The elution conditions of affinity gel were determined at different pH values and ionic strengths. Maximum elution of XO was achieved at pH 9.0 and ionic strength around 0.4. The overall purification for XO was 1645-fold with 20.49% yield. SDS-PAGE of the enzyme indicates a single band with an apparent MW of 150 kDa. The gel provides a simple, rapid and effective useful for the purification of XO. Heat stability was determined on purified XO activity. Xanthine oxidase was preserved up to 70% with activity exposure of 60 °C and incubated for 60 min. These results indicated that the enzyme was heat stable.

Background: The objective was to characterize the colostrum proteome of primiparous Holstein cows in association with immunoglobulin G (IgG) content. Immediately after calving, colostrum samples were collected from 18 cows to measure IgG concentration. Based on colostrum IgG content, samples were classified through cluster analysis and were identified as poor, average, and excellent quality.

This study aims to assess the safety, efficacy, and mechanisms of Juanbilijieqing Fang in a mouse model of gouty arthritis. C57BL/6 mice were allocated into six groups: control, gouty arthritis model, and treatment groups receiving varying doses of Juanbilijieqing Fang (low, medium, high), along with a positive control group treated with febuxostat. Gouty arthritis was induced via MSU crystal injection following a high-fat diet.

Hyperuricemia, caused by abnormal purine metabolism, is commonly treated with xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitors, uricosuric, and dietary adjustments. Recently, marine-derived bioactive peptides have gained attention as potential functional food ingredients due to their therapeutic potential. Takifugu obscurus, an economically significant offshore fish rich in crude proteins was explored in this study as a source of XOD inhibitory peptides.
