  • The present study aimed to investigate the in vivo antihypertensive effect on spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) induced by egg protein-derived peptide QIGLF, which has been previously characterized in vitro as a potent angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.; Results: In vivo antihypertensive effect of QIGLF orally administered was evaluated by the tail-cuff method. The systolic blood pressure and the diastolic blood pressure of rats were measured 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 h after administration every day. Subsequently, the effect of QIGLF on angiotensin-converting enzyme mRNA expression in the kidney of SHRs was evaluated by a polymerase chain reaction. Systolic blood pressure was found to be reduced markedly in the SHRs after a single oral administration.; Conclusion: The results show that the effect of QIGLF (50 mg kg-1 body weight) was similar to that of captopril (10 mg kg-1 body weight) with respect to lowering systolic blood pressure in SHRs. Therefore, egg white protein-derived peptide QIGLF may be useful in the prevention or treatment of hypertension. © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry.; © 2016 Society of Chemical Industry.
