The antioxidant activity of protein-derived peptides was one of the first to be revealed among the more than 50 known peptide bioactivities to date. The exploitation value associated with food-derived antioxidant peptides is mainly attributed to their natural properties and effectiveness as food preservatives and in disease prevention, management, and treatment. An increasing number of antioxidant active peptides have been identified from a variety of renewable sources, including terrestrial and aquatic organisms and their processing by-products. This has important implications for alleviating population pressure, avoiding environmental problems, and promoting a sustainable shift in consumption.

bioactive peptides food sources antioxidant activity molecular mechanism

1. Introduction

Rapid and uncontrolled urbanization, the globalization of unhealthy lifestyles, and environmental and climatic degradation resulting from human development activities have contributed to the high prevalence of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) worldwide. According to statistics, premature deaths due to NCDs exceed 41 million per year, equivalent to 71% of total global deaths ^[1]. There is growing evidence that oxidative stress caused by the disturbance of redox homeostasis in living organisms is involved in the pathogenesis and development of many chronic diseases, such as cancer, atherosclerosis, and diabetes ^[2]^[3]. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a class of free radical species produced mainly by the mitochondrial respiratory chain and are involved in oxidative stress signalling in normal cells. However, if the accumulation of ROS exceeds the capacity of the cellular free radical scavenging system, these reactive species trigger uncontrolled reactions with non-target biomolecules (lipids, proteins, and DNA) and cells, and mediate the subsequent activation of pro-inflammatory or pro-apoptotic pathways. This situation requires additional supplementation to regulate the balance of antioxidants and oxidants in biological tissues. Since the beginning of this century, the World Health Organization has been calling for an increase in the consumption of dietary sources of antioxidants worldwide, as food is a natural and sustainable source of these compounds ^[4]. The application of antioxidant active peptides in the prevention and management of oxidative damage and related pathologies in the body has been extensively studied over the past decades. As of June 2022, 772 peptide sequences with biological antioxidant functions were registered in the BIOPEP database, second only to angiotensin-converting enzyme-inhibiting peptides, reflecting their great commercial exploitation value. The sources of these active peptides cover a wide range of human edible biological resources on earth, including animals, plants, and algae. They can be produced from low economic-value catches or crops, or various edible or non-edible by-products of food processing, even involving some refined products. Most biofunctional peptides are produced mainly through enzymatic hydrolysis of proteins, either in vivo during gastrointestinal digestion, controlled degradation using appropriate exogenous proteases, or during specific food processing (e.g., ham and milk fermentation) ^[5] (Figure 1). Traditionally, the characterization of peptides follows a standardized procedure, which simply includes the selection of the original protein, enzymatic hydrolysis, isolation, purification, and identification, and after the last step, information on the activity, amino acid sequence, structure and corresponding functional properties of the candidate peptide can be largely determined ^[6]. However, this approach is expensive and time-consuming, and more importantly, it does not meet the requirements of industrial scale-up production. In recent years, the establishment of emerging bioinformatics analysis systems (in silico) has provided a new possibility for the study of biopeptides including antioxidant peptides. In addition, besides their potential as therapeutic agents, the research value of antioxidant peptides is also reflected in their applications as food additives, nutritional fortification in health foods, and anti-aging and photoprotective components in cosmetics ^[7]^[8]. Numerous experiments have shown that the addition of food-based antioxidant protein hydrolysates or peptides as antioxidants can effectively inhibit lipid peroxidation during food transportation and storage, thus maintaining the stability of food flavour and nutritional quality (vitamins and essential unsaturated fatty acids) ^[9]^[10]. Therefore, the development of natural antioxidant peptides from food or other readily available sources as alternative food preservatives may help to alleviate consumer concerns about the potential toxicity risks associated with the widespread use of synthetic antioxidants in current food formulations.

2. Digestive Stability and Bioavailability of Antioxidant Peptides

As an ideal alternative to synthetic antioxidants at this stage, the stability and accessibility of functional protein hydrolysates or peptide derivatives in the complex and demanding digestive environment of the human body are undoubtedly decisive aspects in the biological validation of known and novel food-derived antioxidant peptides. However, the reality is that bioactive peptides, including antioxidant peptides, are still far from clinical application due to the lack of mature delivery and bioavailability support and the fact that the necessary biological analysis is still mostly at the in vitro cellular level. Like drug molecules and other functional components, in addition to their direct physiological effects in the intestinal wall, which effectively induce antioxidant defense mechanisms in the body, peptide molecules as therapeutic agents or health-promoting supplements must enter the portal circulation in their active form and exert systemic or local antioxidant effects.

To achieve this expectation, the bioactive peptides after oral administration need to be subjected to modification or degradation triggered by proteolytic enzymes in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, while the peptide activity and function are also subjected to the possible impact of the toxic environment in the GI lumen such as potentially damaging secretions (including bile salts, acids and other digestive enzymes such as elastase) and various food-derived oxidants and toxins ^[11]. Peptides that survive gastrointestinal digestion or their released fragments must also overcome further hydrolysis by brush border peptidases and/or cell membrane peptidases of the intestinal membrane epithelium before they can be absorbed into the internal circulation by intestinal wall cells; there are four main mechanisms for the trans-cortical flux of peptides in this process as shown in Figure 2, including active transport by H⁺-coupled PepT1 and PepT2 transporters, Na⁺-coupled oligopeptide transport systems SOPT1 and SOPT2, passive bypass diffusion by intercellular tight junctions (TJs), and trans-cellular action in the form of endocytosis, depending on molecular size and structural properties such as hydrophobicity of peptides ^[12]^[13]^[14]. Finally, these cell-penetrating peptides also need to escape the breakdown of vascular endothelial tissue peptidases and soluble plasma peptidases, as well as the first-pass effect in the liver ^[15]. In fact, due to peptidase activity, most exogenous peptides have low stability and fast clearance in plasma ^[7]. In conclusion, in the face of the metabolic activity of peptidases in the gastrointestinal tract and plasma and the low permeability of the intestinal barrier, many therapeutic peptides have difficulty in maintaining their full activity or reaching the target site in very low amounts (1~2%) and are less likely to elicit a pharmacological response outside the GI tract ^[16]. Considering the strict ethical regulations of animal studies and the high cost and resource intensity of human trials, the evaluation, and integration of information on the digestive permeation behavior of bioactive molecules based on in vitro digestion and intestinal absorption models may provide valuable guidance for their in vivo effects and the subsequent development of co-delivery and bioavailability strategies.

To exert their biological activity, hydrolysates or peptides must be evaluated for digestibility and subsequent release of bioactive peptides in relevant in vitro intestinal models and the in vivo GI tract lumen. In vitro methods using cultures such as monolayers of human intestinal Caco-2 epithelial cells and in vivo models to determine permeability can aid in the prediction of oral bioavailability. The selective permeability of the intestinal barrier to candidate peptides is based on an understanding of the structural and chemical properties of the active compounds, the interactions in the gastrointestinal tract, and knowledge of the physiology of the GI tract ^[17]. As previously mentioned, it has long been known that hydrolysates with many short peptides, especially dipeptides and tripeptides, can lead to their better absorption and are more efficient than free amino acids and larger precursor peptide molecules ^[18]. If the MW of the molecule increases above 500 Da, the oral bioavailability decreases dramatically ^[15]. For example, the bioavailability of fractions of casein-derived peptides less than 500 Da was 16.23%, compared to 9.54% for fractions in the molecular weight range of 500–1000 Da ^[19]. Also of interest is that the length of the peptide chain provides a clue as to whether a transdermal transporter is involved. Specifically, dipeptides and tripeptides have been described as substrates for PepT1 binding and transport, which is a peptide transporter with a transmembrane electrochemical protein gradient located on the apical membrane of enterocytes ^[20]. In contrast, the TJs-mediated paracellular pathway is responsible for the translocation of oligopeptides containing four to nine amino acid residues ^[21]^[22]. This conclusion is corroborated by the work of the group of Xu et al. ^[23]. In an assay evaluating the uptake mechanism and bioavailability of rapeseed protein-extracted peptide WDHHAPQLR (RAP) in Caco-2 cell monolayers, they found that RAP is degraded by brush border peptidases, and then longer fragments of RAP, DHHAPQLR and WDHHAP are transported via the paracellular pathway, while tripeptide QLR is taken up via PepT1. In addition, through pharmacokinetic tests, they found that the absolute bioavailability of RAP (100 mg/kg BW) could reach 3.56% in rats after oral gavage, although the effective permeation rate of the basal side of Caco-2 monolayer measured in the preliminary screening test was only 1% at most, which was not sufficient to exert antioxidant effects. These results suggest that RAP may be developed as an efficient radical scavenging peptide. An earlier study by the same group showed that 65.57% of YWDHNNPQIR was resistant to hydrolysis by brush border peptidase and could be absorbed by the intestinal epithelium intact. More importantly, the absorbed peptides could still exhibit favorable antioxidant activity ^[24]. Wang et al. ^[25] reported an interesting work to screen and identify antioxidant peptides with digestive stability and bioaccessibility in muscle hydrolysates of silver carp. Two digestion products, i.e., viniferase and papain-induced hydrolysate fractions with molecular weight less than 1 kDa after SGID, showed 9.21% and 11.45% permeability by trans-cortical transport analysis of the Caco-2 monolayer. Then further identified by LC-MS/MS, the fragmented peptide LVPVAVF in the permeate showed the strongest DPPH^• cleavage (EC₅₀ 0.65 mg/mL) and ROS quenching activity (27.23% at 50 µg/mL). Similarly, Feng and Betti ^[26] reported that digestion products of bovine collagen hydrolysate could reach up to 21.4% transport efficiency across Caco-2 cell monolayers. These studies support the idea that protein digests screened by in vitro permeability assays to obtain highly permeable fractions have greater potential as natural resistance components in food and drug systems than single or purified peptides. However, further studies focusing on the relationship between intestinal absorption of antioxidant peptides and subsequent in vivo metabolism are needed.

In conclusion, given the properties of antioxidant peptides, such as molecular weight, charge, hydrogen bond potential and hydrophobicity sensitivity to peptidase and intestinal transport, and the correlation between intestinal epithelial transport of peptides and peptidase catalysis, most oligopeptides exhibiting in vitro antioxidant activity rarely maintain their integrity or activity after transmembrane transport and subsequently affect their bioavailability, even though small amounts of target peptides may be detected in plasma. The presence of small amounts of the target peptide may be detected in plasma. As recently novel antioxidant peptides LHSMK ^[27], YFCLT and GLLLPH ^[22], WDHHAPQLR ^[23], GNPDIEHPE, SVIKPPTDE and VIKPPTDE ^[28] were reported as such. Therefore, to maximize health benefits, future work needs to shift more towards the development of promotion strategies for the stability and bioavailability of bioactive peptides.

3. Application of Antioxidant Peptides in Food Systems

Thanks to the natural properties and generally high biological activity of antioxidant protein hydrolysates or peptides, the use of these high value-added products as functional and nutritional fortification ingredients in specialty formulations is an area of increasing interest. Currently, the application of these active compounds is focused on four main areas: (1) as matrix enhancers, preservatives, or nutritional supplements in food systems; (2) as therapeutic agents to be incorporated into pharmaceutical systems; (3) as feed additives to improve animal immunity; and (4) development of anti-aging and photoprotective pharmaceuticals. Unlike living organisms, the quality features of food products suffer from irreversible decay from the date of production, which can be postponed from a few hours to months or even years if appropriate strategies are adopted. In this case, it turned out to be a common trend for the food industry to prioritize the use of synthetic antioxidants such as BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole), BHT (dibutylated hydroxytoluene), and TBHQ (tert-butylated hydroquinone) to promote food stability and extend shelf life ^[29]. However, given the potential health hazards of synthetic antioxidants, the current consumer trend is a dramatic increase in demand for ‘clean label’ foods and functional foods enriched with natural active ingredients. This trend has reinforced the demand of the food industry and researchers to obtain and apply food additives of natural origin that also exert bioactivity to prevent the development of NCDs. In this respect, antioxidant peptides have acted, at the laboratory level, as potential food additives. Few studies have evaluated the effects of antioxidant peptides in real food matrices, which could support their potential use as additives (Table 1). Meat products are a more studied food system as they are susceptible to lipid oxidation and require exogenous antioxidants to scavenge the active substances. For example, Shen et al. ^[30] reported that the addition of silver carp protein hydrolysate (2 and 4%, w/w) to surimi attenuated the formation of myofibrillar protein carbonyls, inhibited the reduction of free sulfhydryl content, and slowed down the formation of peroxidized lipid MDA and the rate of change of flavor compounds. Similarly, Lin et al. ^[31] proved that the incorporation of bighead carp gills hydrolysate (1 and 2%, w/w) treated with neutral protease to surimi increased the concentration of sulfhydryl and salt-soluble proteins, enhanced Ca²⁺-ATPase activity, reduced disulfide bonds, carbonyls, and hydrophobicity, and improved gel strength and texture. Nowadays, rarely commercial foods containing antioxidant active peptides exist on the market, despite the considerable literature on them. The possible reason is the lack of sufficient evidence for the biological effectiveness, processing and matrix stability, and toxicological safety of most antioxidant peptides. The stability of peptides during food processing and storage is critical for their application as functional ingredients, as peptides are vulnerable to chemical modifications of the backbone or side chains. These chemical reactions involve disulfide bond formation, dehydration, glycation, and aromatic ring oxidation, inducing changes in the structure and bioactivity of peptides ^[32]^[33]. The interaction between peptides and food matrix components such as proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides during food processing and storage could trigger a number of physicochemical reactions, such as hydrophobic interactions, disulfide interactions, and Maillard reaction, thereby favorably or adversely impacting the biological activity, solubility, sensory profiles, and color and texture parameters of peptide-based functional foods ^[32]^[34]. Over the decades, remarkable progress has been made in exploring the role of peptides in textural, sensory, and health aspects. Previous studies have focused on how peptides shape textural and technical functional properties, such as how mackerel gelatine hydrolysate affects flavor, color, emulsion activity and stability, and foaming properties and stability of carbonated beverage ^[35]. However, understanding how and to what extent peptides affect the functional properties of foods requires a comprehensive consideration of multiple complexities (e.g., peptide amphipathicity, solubility, and gelation capacity, food composition and ingredient distribution, and food processing and storage conditions) for better tailoring the type of hydrolysate in the formulated product to obtain the desired functional properties. Thus, further studies are requested to assess the impact of antioxidant bioactive peptides on the technical properties and consumer acceptance of final products, even though promising outcomes have been recorded in literatures (especially for minced meat and beverages).
