This study describes the purification and characterization of a novel antihypertensive angiotensin 1­converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Maximal production of the ACE inhibitor from Saccharomyces cerevisiae was obtained from 24 h of cultivation at $30^{\circ}C$ and its ACE inhibitory activity was increased by about 1.5 times after treatment of the cell-free extract with pepsin. After the purification of ACE inhibitory peptides with ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, and reverse-phase HPLC, an active fraction with an $IC_{50}$ of 0.07 mg and $3.5\%$ yield was obtained. The purified peptide was a novel decapeptide, showing very low similarity to other ACE inhibitory peptide sequences, and its amino acid sequence was Tyr-Asp-Gly-Gly-Val-Phe-Arg-Val-Tyr-Thr. The purified inhibitor competitively inhibited ACE and also showed a clear antihypertensive effect in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) at a dosage of 1 mg/kg body weight.

This study was conducted to investigate the inhibitory activity of water extracts and its enzymatic hydrolysates from algae against angiotensin-I converting enzyme (ACE). The 7 kinds of algae were extracted with water at $50^{\circ}C,\;70^{\circ}C$ and $98^{\circ}C$. ACE inhibitory activities of water extracts were the highest at $70^{\circ}C$, and those of ceylon moss, layer, green layer, sea mustard, seaweed fusiforme sea tangle and sea staghorn were $10.9\%,\;9.3\%,\;8.9\%,\;8.2\%,\;7.5\%,\;7.1\%$ and $7.0\%$, respectively. Layer, green laver sea mustard and ceylon moss of high ACE inhibitory activities among the 7 kinds of water extracts were hydrolyzed by maxazyme and papain during 24hrs. ACE inhibitory activity of enzymatic hydrolysates was higher than that of water extracts, and was the highest in enzymatic hydrolysates of laver among the tested samples. In laver hydrolysates by proteases, the highest ACE inhibitory activity and peptide-nitrogen contents were observed at 8 hours hydrolysis and the hydrolysates by maxazyme showed relatively higher activity than those by papain(31.3 and $27.9\%$, respectively). But peptide-nitrogen contents were greater in papain hydrolysates than in maxazyme.

Gelatin hydrolysates with a high inhibitory activity against angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) were fractionated from Alaska pollock surimi refiner discharge. The ACE-inhibitory activity, expressed as $IC_{50}$ (mg/mL), was highest (0.49 mg/mL) in gelatin hydrolysates formed by sequential 2-hr treatments of Pronase and Flavourzyme. After fractionation through four different membrane filters with molecular weight cut-offs of 3, 5, 10, and 30 kDa, the highest ACE-inhibitory activity (0.21 mg/mL) was observed with the 3-kDa filtrate.

ACE inhibition activity of peptides was measured after 2 months of storage at $4^{\circ}C$ under condition of pH 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 7.5, 8.0. and the ACE inhibitory activity were changed only slightly. After 2 months of chilled storage ($4^{\circ}C$), no dramatic change and significance was found. This indicates that acidic, neutral, weak alkali conditions did not affect ACE inhibitory activity of those peptides. Among peptide 1134, 1152, and 1155, peptides from thermolysin + protease A hydrolysates, inhibition activity of peptide 1134 and 1152 was decreased significantly at $60^{\circ}C$, however, they showed stable inhibition activity from $70^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$ (P<0.001). Also, chromatogram of peptide 1134, 1152, and 1155 was shown that retention time of peptide of $60^{\circ}C$ was not correspond to the retention time of the rest of peptides. This indicated that temperature may change the inhibitory activity and profile of peptides.

The hydrolysates prepared with various enzyme digestion of Capsosiphon fulvescens were used to measure the inhibitory effects against angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE). The commercially available enzymes such as Celluclast, Viscozyme, Lysing enzyme, Flavourzyme, Alcalase and Pectinex were used to digest C. fulvescens and produce hydrolysates. The maximum ACE inhibitory activity was observed using Alcalase hydrolysis (72.9%). The optimal conditions of Alcalase extraction were pH 8.0 and extraction time for 12 hr. The hydrolysates were fractionated using preparative-LC and anion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and the fraction B and B-2 were isolated. The ACE inhibitory activity of fraction B-2 by anion-exchange chromatography was 82.6%. The molecular weight of fraction B-2 estimated using size exclusion chromatography was about 1 kDa. The monosaccharide composition of the fraction B-2 was determined to be mannose (1.1%), glucuronic acid (1.3%), galactose (1.3%) and glucose (96.3%).

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.

For development of premium sauce, fermented sauces containing ferment (with wheat flour and soybean) and extract(s) of Styela clava (Korean name: miduduk) tunic and/or mulberry leaves and/or onion were prepared, and their angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities were evaluated. All sauces containing extract(s) showed increased ACE inhibitory and DPPH radical scavenging activities. Especially, sauces containing extracts of mulberry leaves and onion showed superior activities, with 26.92% and 40.66% relatively increased ACE inhibitory and DPPH radical scavenging activities, respectively, compared to control (no extract was added). These results suggest that extracts of mulberry leaves and onion could improve antihypertensive and antioxidant activities of fermented sauce.

This study was performed to determine the optimal time of harvest for ramie leaves with the two varieties (Seocheon Seobang and Seoncheon Baekpi) by comparison of physiological activity and physicochemical characteristics. The crude protein, minerals, ascorbic acid, folate, chlorophyll, ACE inhibitory activity and AChE inhibitory activity were determined. The amount of crude protein in ramie leaf, which was collected in Seocheon-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, grew up steadily from early May to September. The content of calcium in was higher in Baekpi than in Seobang. Seobang displayed its highest value of 3,569.90 mg% in September, while Baekpi displayed its highest value of 3,163.84 mg% in October. Although, folate and vitamin C contents in the two varieties were slightly different, they were higher as the growth date grew in October. The highest value of chlorophyll content was observed in October, which was later in the vegetative state. ACE inhibitory activity and AChE inhibitory activity appeared to be higher in Baekpi than in Seobang. Between June and August, ACE inhibitory activity was highest in Baekpi variety.
