Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have generally been very useful to remedy or prevent hypertension. This study describes the extraction and characterization of an ACE inhibitor from the fruiting body of Pholiota adiposa ASI 24012, which can be used as an antihypertensive drug. The maximal ACE inhibitory activity $(IC_{50};0.25mg)$ was obtained when the fruiting body of Pholiota adiposa ASI 24012 was extracted with distilled water at $30^{\circ}C$ for 12 h. After the purification of ACE inhibitor with ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, and reverse-phase HPLC, an active fraction with an $IC_{50}$ of 0.044 mg was obtained. The purified ACE inhibitory peptide was a novel pentapeptide, showing very little similarity to other ACE inhibitory peptide sequences. The molecular mass of the purified ACE inhibitor was estimated to be 414 daltons with a sequence of Gly-Glu-Gly-Gly-Pro, and showed a clear antihypertensive effect on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at a dosage of 1 mg/kg.

Angiotensin I that converts the enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide, Gly-Pro-Leu, previously purified and identified from the Alaskan pollack skin gelatin hydrolysate, were synthesized. In addition, the peptides Gly-Leu-Pro, Leu-Gly-Pro, Leu-Pro-Gly, Pro-Gly-Leu, Pro-Leu-Gly, Gly-Pro, and Pro-Leu, which consisted of glycine, proline, and leucine, were synthesized by the solid-phase method. The $IC_{50}$ values of each tripeptide - namely Leu-Gly-Pro, Gly-Leu-Pro, Gly-Pro-Leu, Pro-Leu-Gly, Leu-Pro-Gly, and Pro-Gly-Leu - were 0.72, 1.62, 2.65, 4.74, 5.73, and $13.93{\mu}M$, respectively. The ACE inhibitory activity of these tripeptides was higher than that of dipeptides, such as Gly-Pro and Pro-Leu with $IC_{50}$ values of 252.6 and $337.3\;{\mu}M$, respectively. Among the tripeptides, Leu-Gly-Pro and Gly-Leu-Pro had higher inhibitory activity than Gly-Pro-Leu that was isolated from the Alaskan pollack skin gelatin hydrolysate. Among the different types of tripeptides that were examined, the highest ACE inhibitory activity was observed for Leu-Gly-Pro. It had the leucine residue at the N-terminal and proline residue at the C-terminal.

Drug inetraction between of enalapril-induced angiotensin converting enzym) inhibitory effect and Ginkgo biloba Ext.-induced antioxidant action was evaluated in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Combination treatment of enalapril (20 mg/kg/day p.o.) and Ginkgo biloba Ext. (60 mg/kg/day, p.o.) for 6 weeks in drinking water to SHRs resulted the inhibition of ACE activity in lung tissue, angiotensin I-induced pressure response and plasma angiotensin II concentration as similar to enalapril alone treatment. But these effects were sustained after 1 week withdrawal of enalapril and Ginkgo biloba Ext. co-administeration. Also, coadministered group did not increase the concentration of bradykinin in lung tissue, which were different from enalapril alone treated group. Co-administration of enalapril and Ginkgo biloba Ext. inhibited the hemolysis induced by UV B type, even Ginkgo biloba Ext. alone treated group did not. These results suggested that Ginkgo biloba Ext. sustained ACE inhibitory effect and reduced the inhibitory effect of bradykinin inactivation induced by enalapril, meanwhile, enalapril increased the antioxidant effect of Ginkgo biloba Ext.

굴 효소 가수분해물은 굴을 alcalase, protamex, neutrase, flavourzyme, pepsin으로 각각 처리하였고, 이들의 ACE 저해활성을 측정하였다. ACE 저해활성은 가수분해 시간에 따라 증가 또는 감소하였으며, 그 중 10시간 이상 가수분해 처리한 PEH에서 가장 높은 ACE 저해활성을 나타내었다. PEH 가수분해물을 한외여과(30, 10 kDa) 하여 낮은 분자량의 분획물을 얻었다. 30 kDa와 10 kDa 이하 분자량 별 ACE 저해활성은 각각 $69.18{\pm}0.75$, $83.71{\pm}1.12$의 활성을 나타내었다. 이 결과 10 kDa 이하의 시료로부터 HPLC column (watchers 120 ODS-AP $250{\times}4.6$ ($5{\mu}m$))을 이용하여 각각의 활성 분획을 분취하여 얻은 6분획의 ACE 저해 활성은 29.56~85.85% 로 나타났다. 그 중 저해활성이 가장 높게 나타나는 B fraction의 아미노산 서열을 확인한 결과 Leu-Gln-Pro 임을 확인하였고, peptide합성하여 얻은 저해활성 농도($IC_{50}$)가 1.18 uM임을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 PEH를 이용하여 건강 기능성 식품의 개발에 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Effect of BR-900317 on the angiotensin I-induced pressor response in pithed rats and the effects of its single oral administration on plasma angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activities in normotensive rats and on the cardiovascular system in hypertensive model rats (SHR, RHR), were compared with those of captopril. BR-900317 attenuated the angiotensin I-induced pressor effects in pithed rats. In a single oral dose administration study, BR-900317 inhibited the plasma ACE activities in a dose-dependent fashion. Duration of the action of BR-900317 was similar to that of captopril. BR-900317 produced antihypertensive effect in spontaneously hypertensive rats and dose-dependent antihypertensive effect in 2-kidney Goldblatt hypertensive rats without affecting heart rate. These results suggest that the main mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of BR-900317 is the suppression of angiotensin II production due to the inhibition of the ACE.

Angiotensin Ⅰ converting enzyme(ACE) inhibitory activities of laver(Porphyra tenera) protein hydrolysates were investigated by enzymes used for hydrolysis, molecular fractions and drying methods. For the enzymatic hydrolysis, crude laver protein, separated by filtration of water extract of dried laver extracted with 20 times(w/v) water for 3 hours at boiling temperature, were hydrolyzed with three commercial protease, Pepsin, alcalase and maxazyme NNP at optimal conditions. The yield of hydrolysis and ACE inhibitory activities of which were high in order of pepsin, alcalase and maxazyme NNP. ACE inhibitory activities of laver hydrolysates by molecular levels were high in order of 3 kDa > 10 kDa > 3∼10 kDa, and the IC/sub 50/ ACE inhibitory activities by molecular lebels were 4 mg/mL(3 kDa), 5 mg/mL(total hydrolysate), and 20 mg/mL(10 kDa), respectively. The storage stability of dried laver hydrolysates at 20℃ were strongly affected by drying methods, hot air dried of which were much stabler than freeze-dried one.

A peptide that inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was isolated from a hydrolysate of Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum) proteins prepared with thermolysin. Amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined to be Leu-Leu-Pro. Chemically synthesized Leu-Leu-Pro had an $IC_{50}\;value\;of\;158\;\mu{M}$. Peptides related to the Manila clam-derived peptide were synthesized to study the structure-activity relationships. The tetrapeptide, Leu-Leu-Pro-Pro, had a very weak effect on the enzyme. However, Leu-Leu-Pro-Asn showed no inhibitory activity.
