Description

経口性抗炎症機能剤Oral anti-inflammatory function
 本発明は、抗炎症機能を有するペプチドに関する。 The present invention relates to a peptide having an anti-inflammatory function.
 炎症とは、生体の合目的な防御反応であるが、過剰な炎症反応は生体の自己組織の損傷をもたらす。炎症の初期段階ではまず、ヒスタミンやセロトニンが肥満細胞と血小板から放出される。ヒスタミンやセロトニンは短時間に一過的な血管収縮を起こし、炎症局所(細動脈、細静脈、及び毛細血管)の血管を拡張させ、血流を増加させ熱感や発赤が生じる。続いて、血管透過性を亢進させ(血管内皮細胞のアクチンが収縮)、血管内皮細胞の間隔が広がって、全身(血液中)から、白血球を局所に浸出させ血漿などの防御因子を局所に漏出させることにより腫脹(浮腫)が生じる。血管内皮細胞の破壊に伴い、血液凝固の第12因子が活性化されキニン・カニクレイン系でブラジキニンが産生されることにより疼痛が生じる。これらの反応が組織内で起こることにより組織の機能障害が生じる。これら「発熱、発赤、腫脹、疼痛、機能障害」を炎症の5大兆候と呼ばれている。 Inflammation is a proper defense reaction of the living body, but an excessive inflammatory reaction causes damage to the self-organization of the living body. In the early stages of inflammation, histamine and serotonin are first released from mast cells and platelets. Histamine and serotonin cause temporary vasoconstriction in a short time, dilate blood vessels in the inflamed area (arterioles, venules, and capillaries), increase blood flow, and cause heat and redness. Subsequently, vascular permeability is increased (actin of vascular endothelial cells contracts), the interval between vascular endothelial cells is expanded, leukocytes are leached locally from the whole body (in blood), and protective factors such as plasma leak locally Causes swelling (edema). With the destruction of vascular endothelial cells, factor 12 of blood coagulation is activated and bradykinin is produced in the kinin / caniclein system, causing pain. These reactions occur in the tissue, resulting in tissue dysfunction. These “fever, redness, swelling, pain, dysfunction” are called the five major signs of inflammation.
 これら炎症反応の中で、炎症の初期には好中球が細菌,ウイルス,死細胞等の異物の処理を行うが、炎症後期になるとマクロファージが集まり死んだ細胞や細菌を食作用により処理を行っている。細菌や死細胞と遭遇したマクロファージは、活性化しTNF-α,IL-1,IL-6などのサイトカイン、及びIL-8などのケモカインを放出する。これらのサイトカインにより血管透過性の亢進による発熱,発赤,腫脹がおこり、ケモカインにより白血球の走性を亢進し腫脹が引き起こされる。上記のように、マクロファージは生体の恒常性維持のために重要な役割を担っているが、過剰な活性化などのマクロファージの機能異常は、免疫システムの多くの病気に関わっており、過剰な炎症反応を抑制する医薬品の開発が鋭意検討されている。 Among these inflammatory reactions, neutrophils treat bacteria, viruses, dead cells, and other foreign substances in the early stages of inflammation, but macrophages gather and treat dead cells and bacteria by phagocytosis at the later stage of inflammation. ing. Macrophages that encounter bacteria and dead cells are activated and release cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6, and chemokines such as IL-8. These cytokines cause fever, redness, and swelling due to increased vascular permeability, and chemokines increase leukocyte chemotaxis and cause swelling. As mentioned above, macrophages play an important role in maintaining homeostasis, but macrophage dysfunction such as excessive activation is involved in many diseases of the immune system and excessive inflammation. The development of a drug that suppresses the reaction has been intensively studied.
 その中で、食品由来ペプチドを用いた研究もなされており、例えば特許文献1では多くのジ,トリペプチドが抗炎症効果を持つペプチドとして記載されている。しかし、合成による製造を前提としており、安全性が十分に確立されたものとは言い難い。特許文献2には、直接抗炎症機能を謳うものではないが、食品由来の成分で、消化管炎症への効果を謳う技術が開示されている。しかし、本品はチーズの加水分解物であるため、その独特な風味から嗜好性が高い。 Among them, research using food-derived peptides has also been conducted. For example, Patent Document 1 describes many di- and tripeptides as peptides having an anti-inflammatory effect. However, since it is premised on production by synthesis, it cannot be said that safety is sufficiently established. Patent Document 2 discloses a technique for obtaining an effect on gastrointestinal inflammation with a food-derived component, although it does not directly have an anti-inflammatory function. However, since this product is a hydrolyzate of cheese, its palatability is high due to its unique flavor.
 特許文献3では、大豆ペプチド、特に11S蛋白質に由来するペプチドであるPhe-Leu-ValおよびVal-Pro-Tyrの抗炎症機能が開示されている。しかし、大豆は主要な食物アレルゲンである事から、大豆アレルギーを発症している患者への応用が出来ないなど、利用範囲が限定される。特許文献4において、主要な食物アレルゲンでは無いエンドウ蛋白質の抗炎症機能について記載が見られるが、実施例としての具体的記載はない上に、皮膚塗布を目的としているものであり、経口摂取による効果は目的としていない。 Patent Document 3 discloses the anti-inflammatory function of soybean peptides, particularly Phe-Leu-Val and Val-Pro-Tyr, which are peptides derived from the 11S protein. However, since soy is a major food allergen, the range of use is limited, such as being unable to be applied to patients with soy allergy. Patent Document 4 describes the anti-inflammatory function of pea protein, which is not a major food allergen, but there is no specific description as an example, and it is intended for skin application. Is not intended.
 ところで、エンドウに含まれる蛋白質は、超遠心分析による沈降係数から、11S(レグミン),7S(ビシリン),コンビシリン及びグロブリンから構成されている。エンドウ11S(レグミン)は分子量320,000~380,000の6量体を形成しており、他の種子のレグミンと同様に酸性サブユニットと塩基性サブユニットがジスルフィド結合でつながった状態で集積している。一方エンドウ7S(ビシリン)は分子量170,000の三量体を形成しており、分子量47,000,50,000,34,000及び30,000のサブユニットから構成されている。コンビシリンは290,000の分子量を持ち、分子量71,000のサブユニットから構成されている。非特許文献1より多くのエンドウ品種について、構成タンパク質の含量を比較した結果、コンビシリンは分離エンドウ蛋白質中9~12%、7S(ビシリン)は30~38%、11S(レグミン)は28%~33%含まれる。
 一方、大豆に含まれる蛋白質は、超遠心分析による沈降係数から、2S,7S,11S及び15Sの各グロブリン画分に分類される。分離大豆蛋白質中では、7Sおよび11Sが主要構成蛋白質であり、7S(β-コングリシニン)が約1/3を、11S(グリシニン)が約2/3を占めている。
By the way, proteins contained in peas are composed of 11S (legmin), 7S (bicillin), combicillin and globulin from the sedimentation coefficient by ultracentrifugation analysis. Pea 11S (Legmin) forms a hexamer with a molecular weight of 320,000 to 380,000, and like other legumins of seeds, acidic subunits and basic subunits are accumulated in a disulfide bond. On the other hand, pea 7S (bicillin) forms a trimer with a molecular weight of 170,000 and is composed of subunits with molecular weights of 47,000, 50,000, 34,000 and 30,000. Combicillin has a molecular weight of 290,000 and is composed of subunits with a molecular weight of 71,000. As a result of comparing the content of constituent proteins in more pea varieties than Non-Patent Document 1, combicilin is 9-12% in the isolated pea protein, 7S (bicillin) is 30-38%, 11S (legumin) is 28%- 33% included.
On the other hand, proteins contained in soybean are classified into 2S, 7S, 11S and 15S globulin fractions based on the sedimentation coefficient by ultracentrifugation analysis. Among the isolated soybean proteins, 7S and 11S are the main constituent proteins, 7S (β-conglycinin) accounts for about 1/3, and 11S (glycinin) accounts for about 2/3.

 以下、本発明をより詳細に説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.
(エンドウ蛋白質)
 本発明でいうエンドウ蛋白質とは、前述したエンドウ蛋白質のサブユニットの各々、またはその集合物を意味する。
(Pea protein)
The term “pea protein” as used in the present invention means each of the aforementioned pea protein subunits, or an aggregate thereof.
(エンドウ蛋白質素材)
 エンドウ蛋白質素材とは、エンドウ種子に由来し、エンドウ蛋白質を多く含む素材であり、エンドウ蛋白質が50重量%以上含まれていることが好ましく、65重量%以上含まれていることがより好ましく、90重量%以上含まれていることがさらに好ましい。エンドウ種子からエンドウ蛋白質素材を調製する方法は公知であり、一般的な組成のエンドウから蛋白質成分を水を用いて抽出及び濃縮する方法と、エンドウ種子を粉砕し、分級する事でエンドウ蛋白質素材を濃縮する方法が知られている。また、分離エンドウ蛋白質等の蛋白質含量の高いエンドウ蛋白質素材に他成分を混合したものも、後述する加水分解の原料として扱うことができる。

Moreover, what mixed other components with the pea protein raw material with high protein contents, such as isolation | separation pea protein, can also be handled as a raw material of a hydrolysis mentioned later.
(エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物)
 エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物とは、エンドウ蛋白質素材を加水分解することで調製されるペプチド混合物である。エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物は分解度がより高いことが好ましく、特に加水分解物中におけるペプチド及び遊離アミノ酸の合計量に占める、ジペプチド及びトリペプチドの割合が高いことが好ましい。具体的には、ペプチド及び遊離アミノ酸の合計量に占めるジペプチド及びトリペプチドの割合が40重量%以上であることが好ましい。60重量%以上であることが更に好ましく、64重量%以上であることが最も好ましい。
 なお本願では、ジペプチド及びトリペプチドを、分子量500以下の画分から遊離アミノ酸を除いた画分と規定した。したがって、ペプチド及び遊離アミノ酸の合計量に占めるジペプチド及びトリペプチドの割合は、ペプチド用ゲルろ過クロマトグラフィーにより加水分解物中の分子量500以下のペプチド画分の割合を測定した後、アミノ酸分析により測定した加水分解物中の遊離アミノ酸含量を差し引くことにより算出することが可能である。加水分解物中の遊離アミノ酸含量は10重量%以下であることが好ましく、5重量%以下であることがより好ましい。さらに、ペプチド体はより低分子であることが望ましいことから、加水分解物中のペプチド及び遊離アミノ酸の合計量に占める分子量500以上の画分の割合は40重量%以下であることが好ましく、35重量%以下であることがより好ましい。
(Pea protein hydrolyzate)
Pea protein hydrolyzate is a peptide mixture prepared by hydrolyzing a pea protein material. The pea protein hydrolyzate preferably has a higher degree of degradation, and in particular, the proportion of dipeptides and tripeptides in the total amount of peptides and free amino acids in the hydrolyzate is preferably high. Specifically, the proportion of dipeptides and tripeptides in the total amount of peptides and free amino acids is preferably 40% by weight or more. It is more preferably 60% by weight or more, and most preferably 64% by weight or more.
In the present application, dipeptides and tripeptides are defined as a fraction obtained by removing free amino acids from a fraction having a molecular weight of 500 or less. Therefore, the proportion of dipeptides and tripeptides in the total amount of peptides and free amino acids was measured by amino acid analysis after measuring the proportion of peptide fractions with a molecular weight of 500 or less in the hydrolyzate by gel filtration chromatography for peptides. It can be calculated by subtracting the free amino acid content in the hydrolyzate. The content of free amino acids in the hydrolyzate is preferably 10% by weight or less, and more preferably 5% by weight or less. Furthermore, since it is desirable that the peptide body has a lower molecular weight, the proportion of the fraction having a molecular weight of 500 or more in the total amount of peptide and free amino acid in the hydrolyzate is preferably 40% by weight or less, More preferably, it is not more than wt%.
(プロテアーゼ)
 加水分解はプロテアーゼ処理により行われることが好ましい。プロテアーゼ処理は上記エンドウ蛋白質素材のスラリー又は水溶液を基質とし、以下に挙げるプロテアーゼで処理を行なう。ここで用いるプロテアーゼは動物起源,植物起源あるいは微生物起源は問わず、プロテアーゼの分類において「金属プロテアーゼ」、「酸性プロテアーゼ」、「チオールプロテアーゼ」、「セリンプロテアーゼ」に分類されるプロテアーゼ、好ましくは「金属プロテアーゼ」、「チオールプロテアーゼ」、「セリンプロテアーゼ」に分類されるプロテアーゼの中から適宜選択する事ができる。特に2種類以上、あるいは3種類以上の異なった分類に属する酵素を、順次若しくは同時に作用させる分解方法がジペプチドやトリペプチド等の比較的分子量の低いペプチドの割合を増加させる事ができ好ましい。
(Protease)
Hydrolysis is preferably performed by protease treatment. Protease treatment is carried out using the above-mentioned pea protein material slurry or aqueous solution as a substrate and the following proteases. The protease used here is of animal origin, plant origin or microbial origin, and is classified into “metal protease”, “acidic protease”, “thiol protease”, “serine protease” in the classification of protease, preferably “metal” It can be appropriately selected from proteases classified as “protease”, “thiol protease”, and “serine protease”. Particularly, a degradation method in which enzymes belonging to two or more kinds or three or more kinds of different classes are acted on sequentially or simultaneously can increase the proportion of relatively low molecular weight peptides such as dipeptides and tripeptides.
 このプロテアーゼの分類は、酵素科学の分野において通常行なわれている活性中心のアミノ酸の種類による分類方法である。各々の代表として「金属プロテアーゼ」にはBacillus中性プロテアーゼ,Streptomyces中性プロテアーゼ,Aspergillus中性プロテアーゼ,『サモアーゼ』等、「酸性プロテアーゼ」にはペプシン,Aspergillus酸性プロテアーゼ,『スミチュームAP』等、「チオールプロテアーゼ」にはブロメライン,パパイン等、「セリンプロテアーゼ」にはトリプシン,キモトリプシン,ズブチリシン,Streptomycesアルカリプロテアーゼ,『アルカラーゼ』,『ビオプラーゼ』等が挙げられる。これら以外の酵素でも作用pHや阻害剤との反応性により、その分類を確認する事ができる。活性中心が異なる酵素間では、基質への作用部位が大きく異なるため、「切れ残り」を減らし、効率よく酵素分解物を得る事ができる。あるいは異なった起源の(起源生物) の酵素を併用する事で、更に効率よく酵素分解物を製造する事ができる。同分類でも起源が異なれば、基質である蛋白質への作用部位も異なり、結果としてジペプチドやトリペプチドの割合を増やす事ができる。これらプロテアーゼはエキソ活性が少ない事が好ましい。 This classification of protease is a classification method based on the type of amino acid at the active center, which is usually performed in the field of enzyme science. As representatives of each, “Metal Protease” includes Bacillus Neutral Protease, Streptomyces Neutral Protease, Aspergillus Neutral Protease, “Samoase”, etc. “Protease” includes bromelain, papain and the like, and “serine protease” includes trypsin, chymotrypsin, subtilisin, Streptomyces alkaline protease, “Alcalase”, “Biolase” and the like. The classification of other enzymes can also be confirmed by their pH and reactivity with inhibitors. Since enzymes having different active centers differ greatly in the site of action on the substrate, it is possible to reduce the “uncut residue” and efficiently obtain an enzyme degradation product. Alternatively, enzymatic degradation products can be more efficiently produced by using enzymes from different origins (origin organisms). Even in the same classification, if the origin is different, the site of action of the substrate protein is also different, and as a result, the proportion of dipeptides and tripeptides can be increased. These proteases preferably have low exo activity.
 プロテアーゼ処理の反応pHや反応温度は、用いるプロテアーゼの特性に合わせて設定すれば良く、通常反応pHは至適pH付近で行ない、反応温度は至適温度付近で行なえば良い。概ね反応温度は20~80℃、好ましくは40~60℃で反応を行なう事ができる。反応後は酵素を失活するに十分な温度(60~170℃程度)で加熱し、残存酵素活性を失活させる。 The reaction pH and reaction temperature of the protease treatment may be set in accordance with the characteristics of the protease to be used, and the reaction pH is usually carried out near the optimum pH, and the reaction temperature may be carried out around the optimum temperature. In general, the reaction can be carried out at a reaction temperature of 20 to 80 ° C, preferably 40 to 60 ° C. After the reaction, the enzyme is heated at a temperature sufficient to inactivate the enzyme (about 60 to 170 ° C.) to inactivate the remaining enzyme activity.
 プロテアーゼ処理後の反応液は、そのまま又は濃縮して用いることもできるが、通常、殺菌して噴霧乾燥、凍結乾燥等して乾燥粉末の状態で利用する事ができる。殺菌は、加熱殺菌が好ましく、加熱温度は110~170℃が好ましく、130~170℃が更に好ましい。加熱時間は3~20秒間が好ましい。また反応液を任意のpHに調整しておくこともでき、pH調整時に発生する沈殿物や懸濁物を遠心分離や濾過等により除去することもできる。また更に活性炭や吸着樹脂により精製することもできる。 The reaction solution after the protease treatment can be used as it is or after being concentrated, but it can usually be used in the form of a dry powder by sterilization, spray drying, freeze drying or the like. Sterilization is preferably heat sterilization, and the heating temperature is preferably 110 to 170 ° C, more preferably 130 to 170 ° C. The heating time is preferably 3 to 20 seconds. In addition, the reaction solution can be adjusted to an arbitrary pH, and precipitates and suspensions generated during pH adjustment can be removed by centrifugation, filtration, or the like. Furthermore, it can also refine | purify with activated carbon or adsorption resin.

(Cell culture for anti-inflammatory effect evaluation)
In order to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of each food-derived protein hydrolyzate on macrophages, the following methods were used for evaluation. Use mouse macrophage cell J774.1 (RIKEN Bioresource center) as the cell, select RPMI-1690 (manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) as the basic medium, and add bovine serum (FBS) to a final concentration of 10%. Then, final concentrations of 100 IU / mL Penicillin and 100 μg / ml Streptomycin were added as antibiotics to obtain a cell culture medium.
J774.1 cells were cultured in a cell culture medium under conditions of 37 ° C. and 5% CO 2 and cultured in a 10 cm petri dish until confluent. The cells that reached confluence were collected, the number of cells was counted, diluted to 1 × 10 5 cells / ml, and 1 ml each was added to a 24-well cell culture plate. After the addition, the cells were cultured for 2 days at 37 ° C. and 5% CO 2 concentration, and the medium was removed with an aspirator.

(Measurement of IL-6 concentration by ELISA)
In order to measure the IL-6 concentration in the culture medium by ELISA, Purified rat anti-mouse IL-6 (primary antibody), Biotinylated rat anti-mouse IL-6 (secondary antibody), Recombinant mouse IL-6 ( Standard IL-6) and Streptavidin-Alkalin Phosphate were all purchased from BD Pharmingen and used.
The primary antibody prepared with 0.1 M Na2HPO4 buffer (pH 9.0) to 0.5 μg / ml was added to a 96-well microplate at 50 μl / well and allowed to stand at room temperature for 2 hr. The plate was washed 3 times with PBS-Tween20 (PBS-T) and thoroughly drained. Thereafter, 3% BSA in PBS-T was added in an amount of 100 μl / well, and allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hr, and then washed 3 times with PBS-T to thoroughly drain water. Samples diluted appropriately with PBS-T were added in an amount of 50 μl / well, and allowed to stand at 4 ° C. for 24 hours, and then washed 3 times with PBS-T to drain thoroughly. Secondary antibody prepared to 0.5 μg / ml with PBS-T was added at 50 μl / well, and after light-shielding with aluminum foil and allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hr, it was washed 3 times with PBS-T and drained thoroughly. Streptavidin-Alkaline Phosphate in PBS-T was added in an amount of 50 μl / well, light-shielded with aluminum foil, allowed to stand at room temperature for 1 hr, and then washed 3 times with PBS-T to thoroughly drain water. Add 0.2 mg / ml of disodium 4-nitrophenyl phosphate in 1 M diethanolamine buffer at 50 μl / well, leave light-shielded with aluminum foil for 10 minutes, and then absorb the absorbance at 405 nm (reference wavelength 492 nm) with a microplate reader. Measurement was performed twice and the average value was calculated.
(ジ・トリペプチド含量)
 各食品由来蛋白質加水分解物の分子量分布を、以下のゲルろ過カラムを用いたHPLC法により測定した。ペプチド用ゲルろ過カラムを用いたHPLCシステムを組み、分子量マーカーとなる既知のペプチドをチャージし、分子量と保持時間の関係において検量線を求めた。なお、分子量マーカーは、オクタペプチドとして[β-Asp]-Angiotensin IIのβ-Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe(分子量1046)、ヘキサペプチドとしてAngiotensin IVのVal-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe(分子量775)、ペンタペプチドとしてLeu-EnkephalinのTyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu(分子量555)、トリペプチドとしてGlu-Glu-Glu(分子量405)、遊離アミノ酸としてPro(分子量115)を用いた。加水分解物(1%)を10,000rpm、10分で遠心分離した上清を、ゲル濾過用溶媒で2倍に希釈し、その5μlをHPLCにアプライした。加水分解物中のペプチド及び遊離アミノ酸の合計量に占める分子量500以下のペプチド画分の割合(%)を、全体の吸光度のチャート面積に対する、分子量500以下の範囲(時間範囲)の面積の割合によって求めた(使用カラム:Superdex Peptide 7.5/300GL(GEヘルスケア・ジャパン株式会社製)。溶媒:1%SDS/10mMリン酸緩衝液, pH8.0, カラム温度25℃, 流速0.25ml/min, 検出波長:220nm)。
(Di-tripeptide content)
The molecular weight distribution of each food-derived protein hydrolyzate was measured by the HPLC method using the following gel filtration column. An HPLC system using a gel filtration column for peptides was assembled, a known peptide serving as a molecular weight marker was charged, and a calibration curve was obtained in relation to the molecular weight and the retention time. The molecular weight markers are [β-Asp] -Angiotensin II β-Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe (molecular weight 1046) as octapeptide and Angiotensin IV Val-Tyr- as hexapeptide. Ile-His-Pro-Phe (molecular weight 775), Leu-Enkephalin Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu (molecular weight 555) as pentapeptide, Glu-Glu-Glu (molecular weight 405) as tripeptide, Pro as free amino acid (Molecular weight 115) was used. The supernatant obtained by centrifuging the hydrolyzate (1%) at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes was diluted 2-fold with a solvent for gel filtration, and 5 μl thereof was applied to HPLC. The ratio (%) of the peptide fraction with a molecular weight of 500 or less to the total amount of peptide and free amino acid in the hydrolyzate is determined by the ratio of the area with a molecular weight of 500 or less (time range) to the total absorbance chart area. Determined (column used: Superdex Peptide 7.5 / 300GL (manufactured by GE Healthcare Japan). Solvent: 1% SDS / 10 mM phosphate buffer, pH 8.0, column temperature 25 ° C, flow rate 0.25 ml / min, detection Wavelength: 220 nm).
 次に、アミノ酸分析により各食品由来蛋白質加水分解物の遊離アミノ酸含量の測定を行った。加水分解物(4mg/ml)を等量の3%スルホサリチル酸に加え、室温で15分間振とうした。10,000rpmで10分間遠心分離し、得られた上澄みを0.45μmフィルターでろ過し、アミノ酸分析器(日本電子製 JLC500V)にて、遊離アミノ酸を測定した。蛋白質中の遊離アミノ酸含量はケルダール法にて得られた蛋白質含量に対する割合として算出した。
 以上より得られた、「分子量500以下のペプチド画分の割合」から「遊離アミノ酸含量」を差し引いた値を、加水分解物中の「ジペプチド・トリペプチド含量」とした。
Next, the free amino acid content of each food-derived protein hydrolyzate was measured by amino acid analysis. Hydrolyzate (4 mg / ml) was added to an equal volume of 3% sulfosalicylic acid and shaken at room temperature for 15 minutes. Centrifugation was carried out at 10,000 rpm for 10 minutes, and the resulting supernatant was filtered through a 0.45 μm filter, and free amino acids were measured with an amino acid analyzer (JLC500V manufactured by JEOL Ltd.). The free amino acid content in the protein was calculated as a ratio to the protein content obtained by the Kjeldahl method.
The value obtained by subtracting the “free amino acid content” from the “ratio of the peptide fraction having a molecular weight of 500 or less” obtained above was defined as the “dipeptide / tripeptide content” in the hydrolyzate.

(実施例6)マウスマクロファージ細胞に対する各食品由来蛋白質加水分解物の抗炎症効果
 実施例2で得られたエンドウ蛋白質加水分解物及び実施例4で得られた大豆蛋白質加水分解物、及び各食品由来蛋白質加水分解物の抗炎症効果を評価するために、測定方法記載のマウスマクロファージ細胞培養及びELISA法によるIL-6濃度の測定を行った。
(Example 6) Anti-inflammatory effect of each food-derived protein hydrolyzate on mouse macrophage cells Pea protein hydrolyzate obtained in Example 2, soybean protein hydrolyzate obtained in Example 4, and each food-derived In order to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect of the protein hydrolyzate, mouse macrophage cell culture described in the measurement method and IL-6 concentration were measured by ELISA.
 各蛋白質加水分解物の抗炎症効果を検証した結果、図1に示すようにエンドウ蛋白質加水分解物及び大豆蛋白質加水分解物において、Positive controlと比較してマクロファージの出すIL-6の量がポジティブコントロールと比較して有意に低下している様子が観察された。乳蛋白由来の加水分解物では全く抗炎症効果が認められず、中でも、CE90M,Peptopro及びHW-3は大豆蛋白質加水分解物1,2と同程度のジ・トリペプチド含量にも関わらず、抗炎症効果を示さなかった(表1)。これらのことから、特許文献2記載のチーズによる抗炎症効果は、エンドウと比較して低い効果しか持っていないか、チーズ生産時に使用する乳酸菌の代謝物に由来するものであると示唆された。エンドウ蛋白質は非特許文献1及び非特許文献2から、特許文献3に記載されているような抗炎症機能を発揮する11Sタイプのタンパク質(レグミンタイプ)が大豆蛋白質と比較して少ないため、抗炎症機能については低いと考えられたが、エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物が発揮した抗炎症機能は、大豆蛋白質加水分解物と同等以上のものだった。 As a result of verifying the anti-inflammatory effect of each protein hydrolyzate, the amount of IL-6 produced by macrophages is positive control in pea protein hydrolyzate and soybean protein hydrolyzate as compared with Positive control as shown in FIG. It was observed that there was a significant decrease compared to. Milk protein-derived hydrolysates have no anti-inflammatory effect, and CE90M, Peptopro and HW-3 have anti-anti-drug content comparable to that of soybean protein hydrolysates 1 and 2, despite the anti-inflammatory effect. There was no inflammatory effect (Table 1). From these, it was suggested that the anti-inflammatory effect by the cheese of patent document 2 has only a low effect compared with a pea, or originates in the metabolite of the lactic acid bacteria used at the time of cheese production. The pea protein has less anti-inflammatory function than non-patent document 1 and non-patent document 2 because 11S type protein (legmin type) that exhibits anti-inflammatory function as described in patent document 3 is less than soybean protein. However, the anti-inflammatory function exhibited by pea protein hydrolyzate was equivalent to or better than that of soybean protein hydrolyzate.
(実施例7)乳酸菌との併用効果
 マウスマクロファージ細胞に対する抗炎症効果に関して、エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物と乳酸菌の併用効果を検証した。乳酸菌はLactobacillus caseiを使用し、測定方法記載のマウスマクロファージ細胞培養及びELISA法によるIL-6濃度の測定を行った。乳酸菌はCpG添加時に細胞数1×105個の濃度で添加し、これにエンドウ蛋白質加水分解物を添加する系と添加しない系を設定し、IL-6の濃度測定を行った。その結果、乳酸菌添加系でもマウスマクロファージ細胞が分泌するIL-6を低下させる様子が観察されたが、エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物と併用することによりその効果が増大することが確認された。
(Example 7) Combined effect with lactic acid bacteria Regarding the anti-inflammatory effect on mouse macrophage cells, the combined effect of pea protein hydrolyzate and lactic acid bacteria was verified. Lactobacillus casei was used as the lactic acid bacterium, and mouse macrophage cell culture described in the measurement method and IL-6 concentration were measured by ELISA. Lactic acid bacteria were added at a concentration of 1 × 10 5 cells when CpG was added, and a system in which pea protein hydrolyzate was added and a system in which pea protein hydrolyzate was not added were set, and IL-6 concentration was measured. As a result, it was observed that IL-6 secreted by mouse macrophage cells was reduced even in the lactic acid bacteria addition system, but it was confirmed that the effect was increased by using it together with pea protein hydrolysate.
(実施例8)乳酸菌飲料の作成と抗炎症効果
 エンドウ蛋白質加水分解物を含有する乳酸菌飲料を作成するために、市販乳酸菌飲料「ヤクルト」(株式会社ヤクルト本社製)に、上述のエンドウ蛋白質加水分解物を終濃度1%となるように溶解させ試料とした。この乳酸菌飲料のマウスマクロファージ細胞に対する抗炎症効果を検証した結果、マウスマクロファージ細胞が分泌するIL-6を低下させることが確認された。
(Example 8) Preparation of lactic acid bacteria beverage and anti-inflammatory effect In order to prepare a lactic acid bacteria beverage containing pea protein hydrolyzate, the above-mentioned pea protein hydrolysis was applied to the commercially available lactic acid bacteria beverage "Yakult" (manufactured by Yakult Honsha Co., Ltd.). The sample was dissolved to a final concentration of 1% and used as a sample. As a result of examining the anti-inflammatory effect of this lactic acid bacteria beverage on mouse macrophage cells, it was confirmed that IL-6 secreted by mouse macrophage cells was reduced.
