Peptides derived from eggshell membrane improve antioxidant enzyme activity and glutathione synthesis against oxidative damage in Caco-2 cells

Excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) cause oxidative stress that is associated with the development of oxidative damage and chronic inflammation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bioactivity of eggshell membrane (ESM) peptides digested with Alcalase and Protease S (AL-PS) at the cellu...
