Research progress on the mechanism of food-derived antihypertensive peptides
Abstract
In this review, several mechanisms of antihypertensive peptides derived from food and its by-products were summarized. Mechanisms based on the RAAS system such as ACE/Ang Ⅱ/AT1R signaling pathways and ACE2/Ang (1-7)/MasR signaling pathways were included. Mechanisms targeting at KNOS system including PI3K/Akt/eNOS signaling pathway, PPAR-γ/caspase3/MAPK/eNOS signaling pathway and L-type Ca2+ channel were also discussed. In addition, the pathways of reducing blood pressure by inhibiting endothelin-converting enzyme (ECE) activity discovered in recent years were also introduced.
