Abstract
ABSTRACT This study investigated the potential immunomodulatory effects of fermented soybean extract (FSE) in RAW264.7 cells and BALB/c mice. The expression of proinflammatory cytokines in RAW264.7 cells was measured after LPS stimulation in the presence or absence of FSE. Mice were orally administered 125, 250, and 500 mg/kg FSE for 21 days, and their immune response was analyzed. In RAW264.7 cells, FSE significantly reduced the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. In vivo experiments revealed significantly elevated splenocyte proliferation; neutrophil migration; phagocytic activities; expression of CD18+, CD4+, and CD8+ T cells; and expression of IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-γ. The major compounds in FSE were identified by GC–MS and by LC–MS/MS. Molecular docking analysis showed that daidzin, genistin and daidzein could potentially bind to the human high-affinity FcγRI–IgG complex to be involved in immunological responses. Taken together, FSE can be a candidate ingredient for health functional food with enhanced immunomodulating ability.
期刊介绍:
Food Biotechnology is an international, peer-reviewed journal that is focused on current and emerging developments and applications of modern genetics, enzymatic, metabolic and systems-based biochemical processes in food and food-related biological systems. The goal is to help produce and improve foods, food ingredients, and functional foods at the processing stage and beyond agricultural production.
Other areas of strong interest are microbial and fermentation-based metabolic processing to improve foods, food microbiomes for health, metabolic basis for food ingredients with health benefits, molecular and metabolic approaches to functional foods, and biochemical processes for food waste remediation. In addition, articles addressing the topics of modern molecular, metabolic and biochemical approaches to improving food safety and quality are also published.
Researchers in agriculture, food science and nutrition, including food and biotechnology consultants around the world will benefit from the research published in Food Biotechnology. The published research and reviews can be utilized to further educational and research programs and may also be applied to food quality and value added processing challenges, which are continuously evolving and expanding based upon the peer reviewed research conducted and published in the journal.
