Abstract
Camel whey considered as a potent source for many different biologically active proteins. According to that, this study was aimed to find out the antioxidant and anticancer activity of the prepared camel whey immunoglobulins. The in vitro effect of the prepared whey immunoglobulins concentrations on colon cells morphology and growth was investigated by tissue culture technique. Results showed that camel whey immunoglobulins reduced colon cell viability. Moreover, the obtained results revealed that these immunoglobulins had high antioxidant activity. In conclusion, this research support the scientific evidence of camel whey proteins beneficial effects in disease therapy.
Highlights
IntroductionCamel whey which acts as a nutritional supplement that is a good source of amino acids and biologically active proteins (Badr et al, 2017)
Natural products considered to be one of the numerous sources of therapeutic agents
Results showed that camel whey immunoglobulins reduced the viability of colon cells in a concentration dependent manner specially at 10 mg/mL (Figure 1)
Summary
Camel whey which acts as a nutritional supplement that is a good source of amino acids and biologically active proteins (Badr et al, 2017). There is a growing evidence that camel whey proteins possess therapeutic properties in different pathological conditions. This is clearly noticed through the clinical trials using camel whey protein supplementation. These trials provided the immuno-modulator, antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antidiabetic, anti-thermal and antihypertensive activities (Low et al, 2003; Smith and Vane, 2003; Sanz Fernandez et al, 2014; Ajarem et al, 2015). Studies showed that camel whey proteins supplementation maintain a high concentration of cellular antioxidants and boost immune defenses that promote carcinogen
