ABSTRACT
Wide-ranging bioactivities of enzymatically digested insect protein to produce peptides have been targeted for functional food development. In this study, fractionated peptides obtained from cricket (Acheta domesticus) protein hydrolysate by alcalase digestion were identified and evaluated for their bioactivities. Peptide fractions F44, F45, and F46, isolated through size exclusion chromatography, demonstrated strong cytoprotective effects on SH-SY5Y and HepG2 cells exposed to H2O2. This was evidenced by a 2-fold decrease in reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in the cells and a 3-fold upregulation of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes. The F45 peptide fractions also showed chemical antioxidant activities ranging from approximately 290 to 393 mg trolox/g peptide, measured by DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays. Furthermore, F45 demonstrated the highest angiotensin-converting enzyme I (ACE) inhibitory activity, 57.93 %. F45 induced higher levels of Nrf2, SOD1, SOD2, CAT, GSR, and GPx4 gene expression in SH-SY5Y and HepG2 cells compared to cells treated with H2O2 and no peptides (p < 0.05). Cells treated with H2O2 and F45 exhibited significantly increased antioxidant enzyme activity, including SOD, CAT, GSR, and GPx (p < 0.05). The F45B fraction from F45 was sequenced to obtain FVEG and FYDQ tetrapeptides. Molecular docking analysis revealed their high binding affinity to cellular antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GSR, GPx1, and GPx4), an antioxidant-related protein (Keap1), and ACE. These results suggest that the novel tetrapeptides from Acheta domesticus demonstrate important biological activities, establishing them as significant cellular antioxidant activities and a potential source of antihypertensive peptides.
