Abstract
Disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition or food composition for the treatment or prevention of hypertension, containing a peptide isolated from a fraction of a flounder surimi hydrolysate as an active ingredient and is based on the finding that the flounder surimi has an effect of reducing blood pressure, and the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi, the fraction of the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi and peptides isolated from the fraction of the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi have an inhibition activity against an angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE). Thus, peptides isolated from the fraction of the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi can be used for pharmaceutical compositions or food compositions for treating or preventing hypertension. Also, the present invention is based on the finding that the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi and peptides isolated therefrom have radical scavenging effect and a protective effect against oxidative stress and are thus capable of inhibiting ROS production, lipid peroxidation and apoptosis. Accordingly, peptides isolated from fractions of the hydrolysate of the flounder surimi can be used for food compositions for antioxidation.
