Colostrum known as "liquid gold" contains approximately 60-80% of whey proteins that can be a great source of bioactive peptide production. Therefore, this study aimed to perform a comparative antimicrobial evaluation of the bioactive peptide generated from C25, C6, and NCDC17 fermented colostrum whey. Peptide fractions 10 kDa, 5 kDa, and 3 kDa were isolated using their respective molecular weight cut-off membranes and antimicrobial activity was evaluated against diarrheagenic strains. The higher inhibition was shown by < 10 kDa peptide fractions from C25 fermented colostrum whey and the zone of inhibition was 15 ± 0.06 ( MTCC 723), 17 ± 0.04 ( MTCC 724), 18 ± 0.05 ( MTCC 725), and 17 ± 0.02 ( ATCC 25922). In addition, ST-1 and LT-1 genes of strains were also confirmed using PCR which is responsible for the diarrheagenic property. Further, the interaction of potent peptides against strains was also observed by scanning electron microscope. Hence, the significance of the present study emphasized that these bioactive peptides generated from fermented colostrum whey can be used as ingredients in functional food against diarrhoea.

Colostrum is essential for the survival and development of newborn mammals. This primary source of nourishment during the first days of infant life is rich in functional components conductive to the enhancement of neonate immunity and growth. Compared with mature milk, a higher protein and peptide content is observed in colostrum, whilst it is low in fat and carbohydrates.

Objectives: Natural killer (NK) cells are important immune system effector cells providing innate defenses against intracellular infections, including viral infections, immune surveillance, and cancer immunoediting. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate whether modified ultra-filtrated colostrum (UC) and hydrolyzed whey (W) products or their combinations with other natural products with reported immunomodulatory properties will stimulate NK cell cytotoxic activity by activation of granzyme B and IFN-γ production.

Methods: The ability of study products to stimulate the cytotoxic activity of human-purified CD56 NK cells and the production of granzyme B and IFN-γ by activated NK cells was evaluated in the cytotoxic assay.

Cow colostrum is the first milk produced after birth and is a rich natural source of nutrients, immunoglobulins, peptides, and growth factors. The bioconversion of milk and whey changes the immobilization and biochemical characterization. However, the cellular mechanism and the anti-melanin synthesis effects of hydrolyzed cow colostrum extract (BCFM) in alpha-MSH-induced B16F1 cells have not been examined.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the N-glycosylation of whey proteins in yak colostrum (YC) and mature milk (YM), as this process is crucial for various biological functions, including immune defense.
  • Researchers used a 4D label-free technique to identify 162 glycoproteins, 222 glycosylated peptides, and 234 glycosylation sites, discovering 59 glycoproteins that were differentially expressed between YC and YM.
  • The analysis revealed that these differentially expressed N-glycoproteins were mostly involved in processes related to cell adhesion, extracellular regions, and immune responses, enhancing our understanding of the glycosylation patterns in yak whey proteins.

This study aimed to reveal the change patterns of the phosphorylation modification status of yak whey phosphoproteins during lactation and their physiological effects. Herein, we comprehensively characterized whey phosphoproteome in yak colostrum and mature milk using an ultra-high throughput phosphoproteomics approach incorporating trapped ion mobility technology. A total of 344 phosphorylation sites from 206 phosphoproteins were identified, with individual site modification predominating.
