Abstract
In this study, crude peptides from fermented sausages inoculated with Lactobacillus plantarum CD101 and Staphylococcus simulans NJ201 were initially separated by ultrafiltration and molecular-sieve chromatography. The obtained fractions with high 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and ferric-reducing antioxidant power values (MWCO-1 and fraction A) were used in Caco-2 cells to evaluate their cytoprotective effect on oxidative damage triggered by H2O2. MWCO-1 and A showed slight cytotoxicity. Increased glutathione peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase activities and decreased malondialdehyde content were observed in the peptide-treated groups. Fraction A was further purified using reversed high-performance liquid chromatography. Eighty potential antioxidant peptides were identified by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry, and fourteen antioxidant peptides were synthesized. SDEEVEH and FAGDDAPR showed strong DPPH radical scavenging activity, whereas ALELDSNLYR and QEYDESGPSIVHR presented strong ABTS+· scavenging activity. These peptides might have great potential for food and pharmacological applications.
