Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitory Peptides from Sesame 11S Globulin Target the FAD Domain: Kinetics, Molecular Dynamics, and Validation in a Zebrafish Hyperuricemia Model.

Food-derived bioactive peptides are promising alternatives to conventional xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitors, yet individual XO inhibitory peptides from sesame protein remain uncharacterized. Here, sesame and peanut protein isolates were screened with four proteases; the trypsin hydrolyzate of sesame (TSH, 120 min) show...

Solacanin C, a new pregnane steroid from Solanum torvum fruits: structural elucidation, potent α-glucosidase inhibition, and in silico ADMET profiling

Fractionation of the ethyl acetate extract of unripe Solanum torvum Swartz fruits led to the isolation of a new pregnane-type steroid, solacanin C (1), together with six known steroidal compounds. Their chemical structures were elucidated using comprehensive spectroscopic analyses, including 1D- and 2D-NMR, FTIR, HRESI...
